Come for the politics, stay for the snark.
If you’re gonna whine, it’s time to resign!
Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.
Decision time: keep arguing about the last election, or try to win the next one?
Republicans are radicals, not conservatives.
Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.
They spent the last eight months firing professionals and replacing them with ideologues.
Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.
Why is it so hard for them to condemn hate?
One of our two political parties is a cult whose leader admires Vladimir Putin.
Rupert, come get your orange boy, you petrified old dinosaur turd.
Proof that we need a blogger ethics panel.
Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.
The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.
Never entrust democracy to any process that requires republicans to act in good faith.
People identifying as christian while ignoring christ and his teachings is a strange thing indeed.
With all due respect and assumptions of good faith, please fuck off into the sun.
Of course you can have champagne before noon. That’s why orange juice was invented.
I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.
The current Supreme Court is a dangerous, rogue court.
“The defense has a certain level of trust in defendant that the government does not.”
We can’t confuse what’s necessary to win elections with the policies that we want to implement when we do.
75% of people clapping liked the show!
They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!
Too little, too late, ftfnyt. fuck all the way off.

Don’t watch The Exorcist tonight!

Wait a minute. I’ve been hearing Pats hatred all year from a guy who roots for a Bob Huggins-coached school? Ugh.

Don’t watch the current incarnation of I am Legend … ever.
Get your Will Smith fix on teh interntubes, but please don’t encourage whoever made that crapfest.

I could honestly eat two pea soup meals a day. I don’t know if people around me could handle it. But I love me some!

Crock pots are wonderful…until you try to actually eat everything you cook.

As someone who doesn’t ordinarily get the NFL network . . .
Who the hell thought it was a good idea to give Bryant Gumbel a play-by-play announcing gig? That decision rivals the Knicks continued employment of Isaiah Thomas for sheer magnitude of dumb. Time to hit mute and turn on the radio.

I was sick of pea soup the first time I ever had the nasty green stuff. Not that stuff or liver, ever, not for lots of money, no way. Yuck
Mary
But yellow pea soup is awesome. Too bad Habitant doesn’t make good canned pea soup any more. Even my sister has given up on it.
Mike
The same sort of person who thinks that Tim McCarver should ruin the World Series every single year.

Never been crazy about the pea soup. Husband loves the Habitant stuff, though. Now squash soup? Oh yes.
Although I’m now curious as to whether my wild-mushroom soup with sherry would work in the slow cooker. I will have to try that and let you know.
Robert Johnston
I think Gumbel’s worse. Sure, they’re similar in their total lack of knowledge of what they’re talking about. But I find Gumbel’s voice much more annoying, and I think he manages the impossible of stylistically being worse than McCarver; I prefer irrelevant meanderings to continuously repeating the monumentally obvious. I really don’t need to be told on every second and twelve resulting in a four yard gain that the play was short of the first down.
Admittedly those are very subjective measures of difference between the two, but I know which torture I’d choose if forced to make the choice.
Jake
Could depend on the mushroom. My only experience with wild mushrooms is morels and they tend to disintegrate if cooked in liquid for too long.

I agree completely, though I could find a few local community ass hats to add to that list.

Fucking Pats motherfuckers!

So freeze what you don’t want now in serving-size portions, and you’ll have home-made dinner someday when you’re too tired to cook.

I’ve decide to rethink my position on the NFC East. There are two professional teams in it, and one of them are in the playoffs. It’s not fair to taint an entire division, just b/c the Washington Crybaby Johnnies are in it.
‘Scuse me while I try to staunch the flow of blood from my ears. Didn’t even notice Gumbel but man that Collinsworth didn’t shutup. I can only imagine what it was like for non Pats fans.

Pea Soup Trivia: Pea soup was famously used in the vomit takes from The Exorcist. But in the very first vomit take — when Linda Blair opens her mouth and projectile vomit flies out — the puke was animated. It was hand drawn onto the film by a cartoonist.
Robert Johnston
Collinsworth definitely talks too much, but at least he sometimes has something to say. He’s better as a pregame/halftime/postgame analyst than as an announcer.
If you really didn’t notice Gumbel, I’d like to know what medication you’re on that lets you completely tune out “profoundly inane and stupid” so I can get me some.

It was that Peach Lambic Cocktail that someone shared with us last week, Robert. (Sorry I don’t know how to that quote thing, unless it’s just straight html you all are doing). Peach Lambic Cocktail, pure Gold. The other half of the secret was that I didn’t get home in front of the tube until there were only 12 minutes left.
