Come for the politics, stay for the snark.

People are weird.

It may be funny to you motherfucker, but it’s not funny to me.

The current Supreme Court is a dangerous, rogue court.

Never give a known liar the benefit of the doubt.

Bad people in a position to do bad things will do bad things because they are bad people. End of story.

You cannot love your country only when you win.

Fight them, without becoming them!

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

All hail the time of the bunny!

“But what about the lurkers?”

Consistently wrong since 2002

Boeing: repeatedly making the case for high speed rail.

Since we are repeating ourselves, let me just say fuck that.

You know it’s bad when the Project 2025 people have to create training videos on “How To Be Normal”.

Someone should tell Republicans that violence is the last refuge of the incompetent, or possibly the first.

This blog will pay for itself.

Oh FFS you might as well trust a 6-year-old with a flamethrower.

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

Quote tweet friends, screenshot enemies.

How stupid are these people?

No Kings: Americans standing in the way of bad history saying “Oh, Fuck No!”

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

The poor and middle-class pay taxes, the rich pay accountants, the wealthy pay politicians.

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

    We had a few hockey players who did that. Not quite to that degree though. My college time frame was a few years before yours (82-86) and our fraternity composites looked a lot like color versions of the ones from the ’60s.

    Trump’s mullet was very creepy, with the hair combed back straight across his ears. Such a grotesque freak.

    Ida know, I really don’t get the whole mullet thing. Looks no worse than damn near everything I see people wearing today.

    PS: You were a good looking kid, Cole.

    I didn’t know you had Spock ears. The mullet really accentuates ’em.

    There’s a reason I don’t remember the 80s.

    I’m lost how did that kid grow up and now looks like, well, like John Cole?! Doesn’t seem possible … oh well.

    “You know what this pretty normal hairstyle needs to make it pop? A fucking explosion of curling neck hair. Tons of it. So much it makes the rest of the hair look short. Buzzcut short. And throw in a plaid shirt with short sleeves, but don’t button it all the way up. Oh, hey, got any high-waisted jeans?”

    Oh, the mullet.  Business up front, party in the back.

    Yours was excellent.  MacGyver would have been envious.

    @Omnes Omnibus: lol. you do have the entitled shithead look down in that pic.  I think John looks more like the buddy of the good guy in a John Hughes flick.

    This is such a nice change from the way most of my relatives now share pictures.  “Oh, you don’t have a Facebook account?” is the response every time I miss something, as if they didn’t know that from the previous ten times.

    OMG, OMG, OMG.  John and I had to pick ourselves off the floor from where we were laughing our asses off.  As John just very drily commented, “He’s changed quite a bit.”  And down I went again.

    @Omnes Omnibus:

    You’ve got the right number of uncomfortable looking black guys in the picture for that, but you really need the embers of a dozen £50 notes you burnt in front of local beggars for 100 proof verisimilitude.

    Oh, that’s what crazy Jigsaw guy is holding

    ETA – I can’t talk. When I was that age I looked like a hybrid of all the Bee Gees. Strong look, I thought.

    This says “I was a ginormous douchebag back in the day.”

    But in the words of George Carlin on “Class Clown”: “I used to be an Irish Catholic.  Now I’m an American, yunno, you grow.”

    @NotMax: ​
      Risky Business came out the year prior to that photo. Many of my classmates would have fit easily into that movie as extras. And those that didn’t would have fit into Ordinary People.

    Mullet-heads, what subtype of Mullet is that?  It has been too long since I lived in The South and I cannot identify.
