Balloon Juice

Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Their freedom requires your slavery.

The willow is too close to the house.

This year has been the longest three days of putin’s life.

Only Democrats have agency, apparently.

Not all heroes wear capes.

Perhaps you mistook them for somebody who gives a damn.

Whoever he was, that guy was nuts.

And we’re all out of bubblegum.

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

Republicans in disarray!

The party of Reagan has become the party of Putin.

Jesus, Mary, & Joseph how is that election even close?

Let there be snark.

I was promised a recession.

Technically true, but collectively nonsense

But frankly mr. cole, I’ll be happier when you get back to telling us to go fuck ourselves.

I really should read my own blog.

Take your GOP plan out of the witness protection program.

People are complicated. Love is not.

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

When do we start airlifting the women and children out of Texas?

The republican caucus is already covering themselves with something, and it’s not glory.

That’s my take and I am available for criticism at this time.

I’d like to think you all would remain faithful to me if i ever tried to have some of you killed.

I somehow bullocksed the original post, but tonight is trash 80’s night. Lolis will post where in the comments. Right now we are at Darwin’s Pub getting ready for the WVU bball game.

Update

Not sure if this is happening or not as no one has confirmed, so I may just unleash myself on Austin.

    My recipient has a hunting trip planned. I’ll see if I can make it down. Just don’t act like a quail, okay? Be cool.

    Oh, also too: Dick says,”wreaagh!“

    I don’t think I can make it out, as I am plagued with work and promised to make dinner for the SO. Have fun, Cole, and don’t burn our fair city to the ground!

    You’re getting too comfortable in your Austin placement – what’s happening with the four-footed gang? Some of us are starting to feel anxious … desolute, even …

    we are having a trash 80′s night.

    Hmm, the Tandy leather factory is in Austin, isn’t it? Do they have a computer museum there too?

    I call shenanigans. NO band announces its start time so specifically. Also, too….2 meetups? At this point, shouldnt you be honest and call the Attempted Hookups?

    However, I approve of this new persona.

    We can’t make it either, sadly. I’m stuck tutoring stupid kids online. Have a great time, though!

    For those wondering about Cole’s radical change. I’m telling you – We (more likely other cooler folks than myself) charmed the khaki shorts off of him. Austin people rock – Except when they get behind a steering wheel, then they’re the shittiest people known to man, but everything else, Austin people make you friendlier.

    I wish we could have come tonight. It’s John’s (Grumpy Code Monkey) birthday today and he’s fast asleep. Too much work and too many late nights just caught up to him.

    But I’ve got a fuzzy cat in my lap, the dog is sleeping on my side of the bed with Grumpy and the BJ women boosted my man’s ego through the roof over the last couple of days. Life is good.

    Woo, RonnieRoo – glad to have helped! (In the boosting yr guy’s ego dept.) He’s really cute (at least by the shitty iPhone pics)and I’ve always gone for dark-haired guys (like my late husband) anyway.

    Prolly TMI.

    Just checked the latest news for Austin, don’t see anything about a crazed Mountain Man running amok on 6th Street. I hope that means you found a place to watch the game and eat some Tex-Mex food!

    Rats–spent the evening with Rachel and Lawrence and blackberry cobbler and Blue Bell homemade vanilla ice cream, and didn’t spot this post until too late (for me, anyway). Come on down and see us again sometime…
