Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Trump’s cabinet: like a magic 8 ball that only gives wrong answers.

Tide comes in. Tide goes out. You can’t explain that.

Fight them, without becoming them!

When you’re in more danger from the IDF than from Russian shelling, that’s really bad.

Whatever happens next week, the fight doesn’t end.

“Can i answer the question? No you can not!”

It is possible to do the right thing without the promise of a cookie.

Red lights blinking on democracy’s dashboard

Wake up. Grow up. Get in the fight.

People are complicated. Love is not.

Sadly, there is no cure for stupid.

Dumb motherfuckers cannot understand a consequence that most 4 year olds have fully sorted out.

This isn’t Democrats spending madly. This is government catching up.

We’re watching the self-immolation of the leading world power on a level unprecedented in human history.

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Republicans do not pay their debts.

Yeah, with this crowd one never knows.

White supremacy is terrorism.

Tick tock motherfuckers!

This has so much WTF written all over it that it is hard to comprehend.

We can show the world that autocracy can be defeated.

Stamping your little feets and demanding that they see how important you are? Not working anymore.

“Everybody’s entitled to be an idiot.”

Putting aside our relentless self-interest because the moral imperative is crystal clear.

Thank goodness WVU decided to come back and play football, because I was enduring that without any liquor in the house. I had two miller lights in the fridge left over from a party a couple of weeks ago, but I was weighing my options huffing the lawnmower gas before having to drink miller lite.

As it is, I can just go to bed. Praise jeebus.

Almost forgot- EAT A BAG OF DICKS MARSHALL FANS. ALSO, TOO.

    I recently moved to Texas and it scares me how common drinking and driving is. I get nervous being on the road at night on the weekends and jokingly calm myself with the idea that since 90% have been drinking nothing but Miller Lite all night, they’re probably still pretty sober.

    @jharp: when you say you’re good at drinking beer, and then refer to any Miller product as “good”, I’m going to have to assume you mean you are good at drinking a lot of beer, but not necessarily good beer.

    [. . .] there are so many better choices when it comes to American beers.

    So gimme some suggestions. The one supermarket that is convenient to me doesn’t carry much anything that is exotic, so I have gravitated to various Sam Adams beers. I really liked Black Lager, but then the store stopped carrying it. Currently I have defaulted to Irish Red, but I am looking for other options.

    On the low end, I liked Saranac Black & Tan as an everyday glug, but the store stopped carrying that. I do not like the Yuengling Black & Tan.

    (Yes, I like dark beers.)

    If I was Marshall’s AD, I’d have fired some coaches right there in the press box, starting with the defensive coordinator and working my way down until my voice gave out. Maybe fire that idiot Doc Holliday too. “Ooh look, we hired Slingblade’s idiot cousin for our head coach. He ain’t too bright, but he’s from around here.”

    I’d kick my dog, if I could catch him. My mother-in-law from Morgantown called, and there was no way I was going to answer it, because I want to remain on speaking terms with my wife.

    I knew when MU fumbled that ball on the 6 or wherever that they were going to find a way to dick that up. Although to be honest, the fact that WVU barely squeaked by MU’s tissue-paper defense and Chinese-fire-drill offense bodes ill for the Mountaineers’ future.

    But just to throw something out there, if you say you like dark beers, see if you can find Dogfish Head’s Raison D’Etre? I think they distribute nation-wide.

    @efgoldman: They played once in 1909 or whenever, and once back when Pennington and Moss were teammates. Marshall was I-AA at the time. Then after MU went I-A, Joe Manchin sat them at the table and made them schedule some games with each other.

    The schedule they came up with was this:

    @ WVU
    @ MU
    @ WVU
    @ winner, best of previous three
    @ MU
    @ WVU
    @ WVU

    I certainly hope the Marshall AD got a reacharound on that little dealie.

    @Mnemosyne:

    Sorry if this sounds like a flame at you–it’s not–but I have had this same frustration in previous Balloon Juice beer threads. Currently I am living the urban hiker lifestyle. I don’t have a car, and if something is not within about 1-2 miles it involves (possibly complicated) mass transit logistics. On the other hand, I pass by this one convenient supermarket almost every day.

    There is a Cost Plus World Market about 2.5 miles from me, but in the urban hiker lifestyle it is not “near.” It is in the opposite direction from the way that I go every day, and a “quick trip to Cost Plus to get some beer” would be about 1-2 hours, depending on the bus schedule. Weighing that vs. just picking up yet another six-pack of Sam Adams Irish Red at the regular store on the way home from work is a no-brainer.

    So I’m not looking for recommendations of the form “if you have store x nearby then you can pick up cool beer y.” I’m looking for recommendations on stuff that is available pretty much everywhere. Maybe just opinions on which mainstream American beers are least swill-like. I hate Budweiser and don’t like Miller Lite, but I will drink Miller Genuine Draft in a pinch. Are any of the new trendy Michelob titles any good? Heineken? Amstel? Haven’t had any of those in ages. Are they any good? Are there any “regular” American beers that are any good?

    Maybe the question should be framed as: What beer would you take to some friends’ TV football get-together if you knew they were no-class Budwieser fans and you were going to buy the beer someplace on the way over to their place?

    My local supermarket does have a few microbrews, or quasi-microbrews, and I’ll check to see if they have Abita. I don’t think they do.

    Again, sorry if this comes across sounding crabby. I tripped and pulled a muscle in my leg on the way to work today, then had to walk and stand on lightly carpeted concrete for about eight hours, so I’m not feeling the love tonight.

    This is an open thread, right? Because I’ve become pre-emptively pissed off that if Obama dares to mention the spectacular infrastructure failure in San Francisco that burned down a suburban neighborhood and points out that maybe we might want to throw some money at our infrastructure, you know, like he said we should, the Republicans and Professional Democrats will scream about him “politicizing a tragedy.” And journalists will stroke their … chins and award style points to each side without ever addressing the question of why Republicans are opposed to fixing leaky natural gas lines before they explode and kill people.

    Meanwhile, Glenn Beck hosting a TV extravaganza 9 years after 9/11 apparently does not count as politicizing a tragedy. Because shut up, that’s why.

Funny you should mention Dogfish Head, because in my rant to Mnemosyne I was going to mention that my local supermarket doesn’t carry Dogfish Head even though there is a Dogfish Head Alehouse directly across the parking lot. Maybe that is deliberate, because I think Dogfish sells six-packs to go. But jeezy-creezy . . . it drives me nuts.

    @Steeplejack:

    Well, I’m gonna be a little snarky in return — G does a lot of urban hiking, but his range is more like 6 to 12 miles round-trip. Granted, he’s generally not schlepping back with a 24-pack of beer, but 2.5 miles seems like a pretty reasonable distance to carry a 6-pack, especially if you own a backpack. Once your leg heals, that is.

    If your range as an urban hiker is that limited, maybe you should consider a bicycle instead. I can carry about 40 lbs. on my back rack with no trouble, and I’m pretty out of shape.

    September 11, 2010 at 2:09 am

    @Mnemosyne:

    Perhaps “urban hiking” was an ill-chosen phrase. It’s not just a question of distance, or carrying some weight some distance. It’s a question of time. Even at a speedy clip, your G is looking at 1½-3 hours to cover 6-12 miles. And I am not talking about, “Oh, today I think I will take a hike.” I’m talking about what I can do on a regular workday between getting off work and getting home to do other stuff that I need to do. A two- or three-hour jaunt is not an option, or not one that I’m prepared to take just for that special beer.

    It’s also a question of geography. To get to Cost Plus I have to cross a major highway that as a pedestrian you can’t cross without a significant detour. Hence the recourse to buses and the scheduling and inevitable delays that entails.

    Sorry if I offended you. My previous comment was not intended as snark at all.

    There’s absolutely no comparison between the two towns. Morgantown has culture, scenery, steep-ass hills, and the PRT. Huntington has tons of strip clubs converted from former Pizza Huts, weird odors in the air, and far too many hillbilly hot dog shacks (where “far too many” is any whole number > 1).

    @Steeplejack: Unfortunately, I don’t know anything about what’s in Virginia, so I can’t help much here. Though I don’t know, I don’t think I can really criticize much…yeah, I squirm a little when I hear someone saying that the beer they most like is Miller or Coors or something, but (a) I tend to think that’s more because said person hasn’t been exposed to some other styles of craft beer; and (b) I’m not sure you fit what I describe anyway if you’ve recognized Dogfish Head around, especially because they seem to thrive on brewing rather odd beers.

    I’d suggest grabbing a beer on occasion that you know absolutely nothing about just to see what all’s out there, though this strikes me as being a sort of obvious suggestion. But all things considered, drink what you like. I tend to think us beer snobs do recognize that there’s a wide swath of tastes out there, but we do have a bit of a blind spot when it comes to the American light lager. And I’m just not a fan of the condescension.

    Thanks for the reply. But I’m not asking for some double-secret insider recommendation on what craft beers are available in my specific area, nor am I asking for some guide on what to try now that I’m spreading my dewy wings to venture beyond the Budweiser-Miller axis. I am aware of most some beer traditions, and I have been drinking beer for 40 years. To put it in the starkest terms, perhaps what I am asking is this: If your local grocery store stocks only mass-market horse-piss American beers and some quasi-microbrews, e.g., Sierra Nevada, which of those is the least offensive to your delicate palate? If the answer is “none,” fine. I’m just trying to spare myself the process of going through all of them to find something palatable that I can grab on the way home from work without buying a bicycle and/or making a three-hour side trip. Some of the Sam Adams beers work for me. Just looking for alternatives.

    Florida State decided to give him a chance after that, but while he was a redshirt freshman, he violated his probation from the above conviction when he tested positive for marijuana, which got him kicked off the FSU team.

    By the time he got to Marshall, he was considered toxic and no Division I-A school would touch him. Marshall was I-AA at the time.

    We have a wonderful selection of all sorts of Miller for your beveraging pleasure & Bud Light Lime is considered an artisanal beer.

    Of course, we also have Drive-Thru Daiquiri places should you hanker for girlie drinks.

    The sun over the yardarm somewhere, so cheers!

    @Glenndacious Greenwaldian (formerly tim):

    I keep asking why eating dicks is considered to be a bad thing, but I never get an answer.

    It’s like on “The Amazing Race” where they had to eat a whole bucket full of deep-fried grasshoppers. The first dozen or so are fine, but then you start looking into the bag and thinking, “There is no way I’m going to be able to eat all of these dicks in one sitting.”

    But you have to eat them all in one sitting. That’s what makes it bad. Even chocolate cake can be as bad as eating a big bag of dicks if you have to eat the whole cake in one sitting.
