Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Baby steps, because the Republican Party is full of angry babies.

Fuck the extremist election deniers. What’s money for if not for keeping them out of office?

Balloon Juice, where there is always someone who will say you’re doing it wrong.

When we show up, we win.

The worst democrat is better than the best republican.

Ah, the different things are different argument.

Historically it was a little unusual for the president to be an incoherent babbling moron.

“The difference between stupidity and genius is that genius has its limits.”

Somebody needs to explain to DeSantis that nobody needs to do anything to make him look bad.

It’s always darkest before the other shoe drops.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

Something needs to be done about our bogus SCOTUS.

Schmidt just says fuck it, opens a tea shop.

When your entire life is steeped in white supremacy, equality feels like discrimination.

Even though I know this is a bad idea, I’m off to do it anyway!

Wow, you are pre-disappointed. How surprising.

If West Virginia and San Francisco had a love child.

Despite his magical powers, I don’t think Trump is thinking this through, to be honest.

An unpunished coup is a training exercise.

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

Following reporting rules is only for the little people, apparently.

Happy indictment week to all who celebrate!

White supremacy is terrorism.

In my day, never was longer.

    Looking good so far. At 4 minutes to go in the 2d quarter, it’s 13-6, WVU. They seem to be taking control.

    Camera shows WV sideline bench from behind; Scooter Berry on the left talking to Johnny Dingle on Berry’s right. Announcer says “Boy, they shouldn’t let those two sit together. At least make sure they stay in that order.”

    Funniest thing I’ve heard in days!!

    I thought there was a thread where the team got beat. Why are we cheering again?

    I can do a victory dance, though I was hanging onto it for when the puppies were adopted.

    I realize you and your fellow residents of West Virginia may find this hard to believe, but Crockpots weren’t meant for cooking roadkill. Also not for squirrel, coon or possum.

    John, WVU blew its chance at the national title – but you’ll always have Glendale.

    Puppies are pooping worms. Are you that sick.

    Sorry.

    I hope you get better, though you seem to get sick a lot. Do you think you have worms? These puppies are awfully lively since those worms left. I’ve heard on Limbaugh’s show that you can get this kit. . . you might also lose weight. I don’t know that that is a problem for you.

    Just a suggestion.

    My USF Bulls sure gave those Mountaineers hell, didn’t they? Two years in a row!
    Of course we then proceeded to lose three…and be absolutely humiliated by Oregon in our bowl game. Oh well.
    Seriously, I’m very happy for that interim head coach at WVU. Good for him…and kudos to Pat White for lobbying for him after the game (to become the permanent head coach). For all the RichRods, Sabans, and Petrinos out there it’s nice to see such a story.

    As a lifelong Nebraska fan I always have a soft spot in my heart for any team that can kick Oklahoma’s behind.

    Now, what bowl game is Nebraska in this year? Oh.

    John’s symptoms should be fading about now. That was some butt-whipping!

    I thought OU’s immense, porcine O line would wear WV down by the 4th, but the fat guys just got slower.Right now WV could beat anyone, expect maybe USC. Georgia would’ve been fun.

    PS: Never thought I’d be happy for a Michigan win but I was.

    Hope you’re feeling better, JC.

    If it’s any consolation EVERY Division I Football team lost at least one game they were supposed to win this year (well, except Hawaii…I don’t know if they were favored vs. Georgia in that bowl game the other day, but they got their butts stomped), and most of them managed to lose more than that.
