Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

You passed on an opportunity to be offended? What are you even doing here?

We will not go quietly into the night; we will not vanish without a fight.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

The real work of an opposition party is to hold the people in power accountable.

We’ve had enough carrots to last a lifetime. break out the sticks.

Jesus watching the most hateful people claiming to be his followers

If you tweet it in all caps, that makes it true!

I am pretty sure these ‘journalists’ were not always such a bootlicking sycophants.

“In the future, this lab will be a museum. do not touch it.”

Some judge needs to shut this circus down soon.

With all due respect and assumptions of good faith, please fuck off into the sun.

if you can’t see it, then you are useless in the fight to stop it.

I desperately hope that, yet again, i am wrong.

Do we throw up our hands or do we roll up our sleeves? (hint, door #2)

We still have time to mess this up!

Give the craziest people you know everything they want and hope they don’t ask for more? Great plan.

A democracy can’t function when people can’t distinguish facts from lies.

I swear, each month of 2025 will have its own history degree.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

Take hopelessness and turn it into resilience.

Lick the third rail, it tastes like chocolate!

America is going up in flames. The NYTimes fawns over MAGA celebrities. No longer a real newspaper.

How stupid are these people?

If you voted for Trump, you don’t get to speak about ethics, morals, or rule of law.

This is just what we needed:

Last August, we wrote about the “Double Down,” a mysteriously tempting (and potentialy lethal) new food item being tested by KFC. For those coming late to the story, it’s bacon and cheese sandwiched between two pieces of fried chicken. And now, many months later, I’ll finally be able to get my hands on one.

KFC announced the decision to go live with the Double Down yesterday, but we weren’t sure they weren’t playing a April Fools gag. But no, they truly are going nationwide with the delicacy on April 12.

This is excellent news for… cardiologists.

    They’ll make bank over the novelty factor, and the only thing they have to add to inventory is the Double Down wrapper. Of course they’re going to go live with this.

    I’m guessing a lot of people are going to order a diet pepsi to wash it down. Cause they’re watching their weight, ya know. I’m surprised that a paper bag would hold the thing for more than five seconds without dissolving into oily goo.

    When they’re listing the calorie count, I wonder whether they’re allowed to use exponential notation.

    One estimate: 1,200 calories, 50 grams of fat. Of course, KFC pushes back:

    KFC public relations rep Rick Maynard responded to experts’ guesstimated calorie counts by providing estimated figures of 590 calories and 31 grams of fat for the sandwich. He said when the Sun ran its numbers, it calculated the nutrition info using two Original Recipe breasts, which are chicken on the bone, while the new sandwich uses Original Recipe filets.

    Uh, yeah, 600 calories of bone.

    Charlie Brooker at the Guardian (TV snark column) had a good point about that “Man Vs. Food” show.

    In the show, the host goes to some town and finds a local place that has some kind of challenge item on the menu, like a 7 pound hamburger. The show host attempts to eat the thing.

    Brooker noted that, in the name of honesty, they should also include the Man vs. Poo aftermath:

    But what I’d really like to see is what happens the next morning, when the show presumably turns into Man V Poo, as Richman empties the dauntingly substantial, hopelessly compacted contents of his engorged colon, clenching the bathroom doorhandle between his teeth as he attempts to give birth to a leg-sized hunk of fecal sod without killing himself. Cue footage of him sweating, shaking and sobbing like a man impaled on a clay tree, before eventually squeezing out a log with the dimensions and weight of a dead gazelle in a greased sleeping bag. As he mops his brow (and backside), he smiles weakly with exhausted triumph, whispers farewell, and the credits roll. And we’ve all learned something about the price of excess.

    @RSA – To be fair, there’s a lot more breading and skin involved in a breast on the bone. According to KFC’s website, the Original Recipe breast filet is 170 calories, and the OR breast with breading and skin is 320. The difference in doubling them up is 300 calories, though, not 600.

    340 calories from the two filets leaves 270 for two pieces of cheese, bacon, and the Colonel’s Sauce, however. The truth is somewhere down the middle of a lard-coated grave.

    About once a year, KFC sounds better than a steak and lobster dinner. Then I go eat it, have heartburn for a week, and it’s another year until I get that craving again.

    Fortunately for me I get heartburn thinking about KFC so I don’t have to go there once a year. Any more.

    Used to eat at a place named Mike’s Hockey Burger. A hockey burger is a cheese burger with 2 grilled hot dogs. They are tasteeeyy. So a meal for me was hockey and fries with a shake. Guy I worked with would have the same and one to go to eat on the way back to work. And now my arteries clog up thinking about them. Ah to be young and hungry.

    Uh, yeah, 600 calories of bone.

    God, that is a great line from like the greatest blues song ever! What is the name again? Pretty sure it was on that classic album Leadbelly Cooks! I’ll have to look it up.

    And that is why I am SO there. Grilled version FTW. You all who can eat bread have no idea what a pain it is to be unable to just grab and bite something when you were raised to be able to and discover the bread is what’s killing you.

    when is someone going to deep fry chewing tobacco?

    And then dip the wad in melted chocolate FTW!

    (Speaking of ThisIsWhyYoureFat: I have had an Irish eggroll… which is basically a deep-fried reuben sandwich replacing the rye bread with a wonton wrapper. It’s delicious, at least when made with decent ingredients. And, no, I do not CARE about the calorie / transfat count.)

    You know, this would be a nourishing meal if the chicken was pastured/free-range and grilled, not soaked in mystery batter and fried in GMO canola oil, the bacon was uncured, and the cheese was actual cheese made from raw milk, not that polyester-based “American” “cheese” crap.

    But it’s not.

    I’m waiting for the advertisement: “Eat this and you’ll piss off a liberal!”

    KFC definitely knows their market. You are overweight and struggling with health issues, with organic local-grow folks and various Jamie Olivers and other goodie-goods trying to unclench your fist from the sausage burrito …

    F**k it! Double DOWN!

    Just looking at it makes me want to throw up.

    Maybe it’s because I’m European. Maybe it’s because I’m a vegetarian (though I loved chicken wings when I still ate wings >3>). But seriously, this is just ….ugh.
