Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

Israel is using food as a weapon of war. Unforgivable.

The gop is a fucking disgrace.

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

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

You don’t get rid of your umbrella while it’s still raining.

The words do not have to be perfect.

Republicans seem to think life begins at the candlelight dinner the night before.

He really is that stupid.

Democrats have delivered the Square Deal, the New Deal, the Fair Deal, and now… the Big Joe Biden Deal.

Come on, man.

They fucked up the fucking up of the fuckup!

Elections aren’t won by handwringing, cowering, and/or bashing your own candidates.

Republicans: The threats are dire, but my tickets are non-refundable!

I’d hate to be the candidate who lost to this guy.

“They not like us!” (that’s for sure!)

Since when do we limit our critiques to things we could do better ourselves?

Narcissists are always shocked to discover other people have agency.

Well, whatever it is, it’s better than being a Republican.

It’s a doggy dog world.

I’m starting to think Jesus may have made a mistake saving people with no questions asked.

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

Shut up, hissy kitty!

I’ve spoken to my cat about this, but it doesn’t seem to do any good.

Republicans want to make it harder to vote and easier for them to cheat.

    Wasn’t that sort of the business model that made hamburgers a staple during the Depression, just parked near bundle camps and skid row, not trendy drunktown?

    A friend and I were gonna do something similar during the government cheese giveaway days of the mid-Eighties until we saw how much work it would be and said fuck it.

    My mom was the director of food service for the local school district in the 70s and was always complaining about the government cheese. After Carter was elected it switched to peanut butter, which was easier to make something that kids would eat. Nowadays with all the allergies kids have it must be a nightmare.

    Jim Wright wants to live in one of these trailers.
    OK I bet he doesn’t, he wants the concept of it. Not the crappy, greasy sandwiches, the idea that we are being sold, every day, crap that’s being called something far different.
    A different take on the whole concept would be a post he has up at his place, Quick and Easy.
    He’s talking about a completely different kettle of crappy, but the concept is the same, being sold crap that’s labeled as something far different.

    Fucking hell. It’s even funnier reading through the dude’s Twitter thread. And now I’m not sure this is a serious thing or not.

    @mrmoshpotato: That thread was hilarious! I think this may be my favorite:

    on an unrelated side note, did you all know you can just slather mayo in place of butter with grilled cheese and its pretty good because its just sort of a flavored oil? you know, if the darkness inside takes you to that place.

    The Trump Administration has opted to use an Army base in Oklahoma to hold growing numbers of immigrant children in its custody after running out of room at government shelters.

    Fort Sill, an 150-year-old installation once used as an internment camp for Japanese-Americans during World War II, has been selected to detain 1,400 children until they can be given to an adult relative, according to the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.

    When did Cole start ads for Web MD?

    Me: I looked at the sun and sneezed.
    Web MD: IT’S CANCER!

    My daughter and I often talk about getting a food truck. Not in a serious way — just as something amusing to think about. We used to watch that dumb food truck competition show on Food Network, which is what started it. Someone posted a picture of the grilled cheese wagon in an open thread earlier this week, and I had to send that to the kiddo.

    This is the most Cole food concept ever. “Don’t ask me for a god damned tomato slice or I swear to God I will reach through the window, pull you inside and hold your head against the griddle which will be embarrassing for you.”

    mr. tobie always eats grilled cheese with ketchup. I guess there are similarities between grilled cheese and fries but the choice has always struck me as odd. We agree to disagree on this matter. Morning to all you early risers.

    You should know that I was computer shopping at Pest Buy yesterday afternoon & decided B.J. would be a good site to look at, but Best Buy blocks you jackals literally because of “message board/forum”.

    I saw this food truck the other day and thought “that has Cole written all over it!”

    I confess, I was spoiled by my college snack bar, subsidized by food services, that would sell you a grilled cheese for under a buck (in the 80s). There are days I yearn for that. I’m not sure that shack would be worth it, though – hot, cramped, busy work, and if you *are* chasing the bar crowd, dealing with drunks.

    Maybe $2 per, and $5 for 3? (I’m pondering proper pay for work performed, with someone, who isn’t here, over a hypothetical problem, that I just created in my head, for a business that doesn’t exist. The internet does lead to strange behaviors.)
