    Thanks Jerry Brown. Because what we needed in this state was more expensive gas. You absolute dumb fuck.

    And for all you idiots that think the roads are going to be fixed, well, you are morons you dumb shit-eating fucks.

    1. __Warren__

      FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK!

      1. UnCivilServant

        Tell us how you really feel.

      2. juris imprudent

        Leaving California is like when you stop smashing your head into a brick wall.

        1. westernsloper

          I tried to live in California in 1984-85. It didn’t work for me. I have visited numerous times since. I find leaving there to be more like putting ice on a burn. Driving across the border out of the state just feels good.

          1. I push the gas range to the max to make it to Topoc so that I don’t have to buy one more tank in California. Plus their stupid gas nozzles would always leave my Vulcan a gallon short of a full tank.

            … Hobbit

          2. juris imprudent

            I was born and raised there, so watching it become such a cesspool of derp is even more painful. We imported damn near all of it.

          3. KSuellington

            Yup, born and raised here also and it is sad to see it happen. All the family that doesn’t live in Ireland lives close to me. I am slowly planning my escape, but it is going to be a few more years still. Every day they seem to infringe just a bit more on personal choice.

    2. Juvenile Bluster

      Evergreen question: Why do progressives hate poor people?

      1. ZARDOZ

        ZARDOZ SPEAKS TO YOU, HIS QUESTIONING ONE. BECAUSE THE PENIS IS EVIL AND THE GUN IS GOOD?

      2. Progressives like poor people. That’s why they want more of them.

    3. one true athena

      It’s a good thing we’ll have a bullet train, right?

    4. The Elite Elite

      Yeah, another tax increase. Because we don’t pay enough in this state. It was so nice seeing the sales tax go up here in Riverside. Let’s get that gas price to move up with it! I fucking hate the voters of this state.

      1. Hyperion

        Read an article somewhere today about a guy complaining he could barely scrape by in SanFran on a 160k income with a wife and 2 kids. While some people may think this is unbelievable, I actually believe it. But the irony was, the author seemed to have no clue at all how this could have come about.

        1. CZmacure

          That story is completely believable. Including the part where the (presumably Team Blue voter) author doesn’t understand why things are so expensive.

        2. DEG

          A former coworker of mine grew up in the Bay area. He was married with four kids. He wanted to stay in the Bay area because he liked it and he had family in the area. Interestingly enough, the guy was a conservative type who didn’t like the predominant politics of the Bay area. Both he and his wife had good paying jobs. They had trouble finding a decent house for their family for a price they could afford, so they went out to the Sacramento area and found a nice place in their price range.

        3. Creosote Achilles

          We have a friend that works at Google. he makes six figures. he and his wife have another couple as roommates in their 3 bedroom apartment in order to be able to afford to live there. It’s crazy.

          1. Hyperion

            You’ll definitely feel this here in the DC/Balt area on a 6 figure income, if it’s in the low 6 figures, as in less than 200k. The 3-4K 2 bedroom house rental there will be 2-3K here.

          2. Akira

            Ick, fuck that shit.

            Southwest Ohio may be kind of boring and cold, but I got a 2-bedroom house in a nice neighborhood for $69k.

          3. Creosote Achilles

            I’m with you, Akira. But the kid is young. Mid-20s. He can do 3 years at google and write his ticket anywhere else. Same reason some of my b-school colleagues worked for Wal-Mart in BumFuck Arkansas. the resume enhancement makes it worth that kind of nonsense for a couple-three years.

          4. Hyperion

            Same house here in MD would cost you 350k. My house that I bought in Indiana, 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, full walkout basement, 2 car attached garage, 50×16 deck, 24.5 acres, I paid 160k for. It would be way above 1 million here.

      2. totally_not_an_escaped_ai

        +135 basis points in proper tax annually and sales tax at practically 10%. At least the weather is nice.

    5. Hyperion

      Wait until you get single payer healthcare. Then you’ll surely love Moonbeam.

      1. one true athena

        And we’re stuck in this hellhole for at least five more years until the son goes to college.

        HELP ME ZARDOZ

    6. Festus

      I’d like to bomb them from space, seeing as how I’ve aged away from their tom-foolery.

  2. LT_Fish

    I think we’re going to see a few more items like #1 as ISIS starts winding down.

    That said…this is pretty funny.

    1. Oh no she Ha-Didn’t!

    1. Suthenboy

      In a log cabin he built with his own hands?

  3. Is it just me, but in the footage you see of the black mask or antifa protests, riots or whatever, doesn’t it seem like they do a lot of beating up on each other? I really don’t see how anyone would be suckered into getting involved in those rolling WWE exhibitions. Zardoz please excuse my non-links related commentary.

        2. Hyperion

          ZARDOZ and SugarFree have merged as one in the new mellower enlightenment.

          ZARDOZ SPEAKS TO YOU, HIS INQUISITIVE ONE. ZARDOZ IS HIGH ON FREEDOM. NATURALLY, ZARDOZ STILL WISHES TO CLEANSE LARGE NUMBERS OF BRUTALS. BUT ONE STEP AT A TIME.

          1. Hyperion

            You know who else cleansed large numbers of brutals?

          2. Hammercorps

            Sylvester Stallone?

          3. Francisco d’Anconia

            John Matrix?

          4. westernsloper

            Summers Eve?

    2. DOOMco

      I’ll look for the video of protesters arguing against each other. Name calling, yelling, ignoring each other’s words. They both supported bernie.

  4. dbleagle

    KJU failed in his attempt to launch today. Wasn’t the world supposed to have died on Easter because the Orange One and the Gout One were busy tossing nukes at each other? I must have missed it.

    1. straffinrun

      What if he’s actually aiming for us on all these failed “attempts”?

    2. Yes, we are all dead. This is just a bad after echo of consciousness.

      1. straffinrun

        Jacob’s Radder?

      2. westernsloper

        Thank God. That shit was getting old. I much prefer my echo.

  5. DEG

    The school janitor looks a bit odd.

  6. DEG

    I missed the book thread. I think I’m going to add a lot of books to my “to buy” list.

    I just finished reading Red Plenty. It’s not bad.

    1. Hyperion

      That one looks good, going on my back burner.

      1. Akira

        You know who else burned books?

        1. Heroic Mulatto

          Guy Montag?

  7. From the New Statesman:

    “Why is the Handmaid’s Tale claimed as feminist, when it’s deeply ambivalent about the movement?…

    “Do we have to choose between a feminism which accords women no moral agency and one which merely tells that women are people, too? Certainly if it’s the latter, then Atwood is right that “many books are ‘feminist’”. The trouble is, I’m not sure such a definition gets us very far….

    “…The book contains an ambivalence towards women who might be described as feminists which often spills over into outright hostility or blame. This may be part of what is meant by treating women, feminists among them, as human beings, but we therefore need to take care in treating this as any kind of template for a politics of our own….

    “…there are no men in Gilead who rival Serena Joy, Aunt Lydia or even Janine in their grotesqueness. In contrast to them, the Commander seems almost endearing with his scrabble and his old magazines. Certain details – the scapegoating of the anti-porn movement, Offred’s longing for hand cream, the butter used as moisturiser – feel almost clumsy, deliberate digs at what Atwood has called “that initial phase of feminism when you weren’t supposed to wear frocks and lipstick”….

    “Yet this isn’t to discount the value of Atwood’s work to feminists exploring issues such as reproductive exploitation, faith and sexual agency….Hypothetical futures, in which gender relations are reimagined, expand our own understanding of our space in this world, as women in the here and now.”

    1. The subtext of this controversy, I think, is that the makers of the new movie version are aware that calling it a “feminist movie” would be box-office poison, if they’re looking for a broad audience.

    2. Bonus points for making a Jeremiah 8:22 joke about the hand cream.

  8. straffinrun

    That Ref got GTFO. Criminal charges?

    1. straffinrun

      *Or KTFO*

      1. Mama said knock you out.

    2. Not that I can see from the article. Of course, the Daily Fail wants the guys name “call our desk if you know!!!!”

      1. straffinrun

        This guy faced charges. Don’t see why they wouldn’t file charges.

        1. France….who knows?

        2. I was hoping you’d linked to this.

  9. quincy

    The other day, I worked the paper cutter to remove the union bug off the company sticker. Libertarian moment.

  10. DEG

    I am enjoying this beer after its “best by” date. The label says I should enjoy the beer within five years and the bottling date is Feb. 13th, 2012. I will let you all know if I die.

      1. Jimbo

        “No score – send samples”
        Buy your own, asshole!

      2. You’ll be fine.

        Is he gone yet?

        1. DEG

          I’m fine. And I’m not gone. I was just sleeping.

    1. Is beer all that different from wine? Wine snobs keep talking about how they love wine that was bottled in 1887 or whenever.

      1. DEG

        I guess you haven’t drunk both?

        1. Like 100 years after it was made? Not that I know of.

          1. DEG

            I haven’t had wine that old. The oldest wine I’ve had was some 15 year old Madeira.

            How long booze will keep depends on the booze.

          2. I had a 50 year old port once…it was smooooth and mellow. Oldest beer I ever had was a 9 year old, and it worked. But damned few age well.

          3. Creosote Achilles

            I have some barrel aged Imperial Stouts that I’ve been cellaring for quite a while. They seem to get better every year when I open one up.

      2. Nephilium

        It depends on the beer. Most beers are not made to age, and will have a lot of flavor fall of quickly (especially hop flavors). Some beers will age well, and some others are designed to age. For aging, you’ll generally want the high ABV beers (7.5% and up) non-hop forward beers or sours. I’ve got some imperial stouts for my nephews that were bottled the year they were born, and I’m planning on sharing the bottles with them when they turn 21.

  11. How about Drew Pearson at the NFL draft?

    1. OneOut

      how ’bout Drew Pearson ?

      I loved it. Best presentation ever especially since it was done it zPhilly.

    Also, today I learned that my aunt shacked up with a Soviet spy.

      Please tell me it was Anna Chapman and you have pics.

    1. westernsloper

      Flyers posted around the Waynesboro area urge residents to call the police with any information about the rouge barbering.

      I got nothing.

      1. Nephilium

        There’s a red barber running around?

        (Here’s me hoping that was a copy and paste.)

        1. OneOut

          can’t do withour that Federal Funding now

          can he ?

  13. westernsloper

    Chicago Public Schools will not close three weeks early, Mayor Rahm Emanuel said Friday

    That may turn a block of future voters against the Mayor there.

  14. DOOMco

    Been busy for a bit. so many articles to catch up on!

    Got bad news on the carb- it is totally shot. I also got some more bad, put it up on jack stands and saw that 3 leafs were hours from failure at the pin. new shackles, pins, everything needed. The failure bent the pins on one side. The list of things is growing, and I won’t be driving for a while.

    1. westernsloper

      That sucks. Any damage done to the mounting points from the failing suspension parts? That is my fear with my Excursion. I am afraid to look because I am a denier.

    2. mikey

      My Healey started that way:. Fix a few things to get it on the road. Then a couple more things. Then fuck it. Take it down to the frame and start from fresh.

    3. Got bad news on the carb- it is totally shot.

      I thought carb-loading was a bad thing. 😉

    1. DOOMco

      She’s not married?

    2. Jimbo

      Another “man bites dog” story, huh?

    3. straffinrun

      Women can’t rape men! Any bitch put her pussy in front of me an I’m tapping the shit outta it. *waves dick in air, just don’t care*

    Fyre Festival descending into madness Not really news, but amusing nonetheless.

    1. I’m having a feeling of dĂ©jĂ  vu, as if I’d heard that story before.

      1. Oregon Man says hello.

  16. Gilmore

    ZARDOZ SHOCKED AT STORY OF INEPTITUDE IN BRUTAL CITY OF CHICAGO!

    No mention of Barbara Byrd-Bennett in that story of how “Chicago Schools are so Broke that they’re going to have to shut down”

    1. Jimbo

      You racist!!!

    2. I’m having a feeling of dĂ©jĂ  vu, as if I’d heard that story before.

    3. Gilmore

      I just think its fucking amazing that somehow this detail – that Rahm’s “Handpicked” expert brought in to save Chicago’s school system…. tried robbing it of millions of $ and is now going to jail – slipped by me until today.

      1. westernsloper

        I hadn’t heard of it.

      2. Gilmore

        An interesting ‘story about the story’ which shows that Chicago’s major papers actually slept on the story, and it was a small education-system trade-rag that actually forced the Inspector General to initiate the investigation which led to BBB’s eventually FBI nab.

        Basically, the tribute and sun-times were too busy moaning about how the Schools needed more money; and when probed about why they didn’t report on the story even when the original journalist tried Force-Feeding it to them…. they simply claimed “we don’t have enough money either”.

        Those larger media organizations didn’t respond to her pleas. There were other huge issues to focus on at the time, including the impact of budget cuts to the public school system, massive teacher layoffs and Mayor Emanuel’s plan to close 50 public schools.

        It wasn’t until mid-2014 that the city’s two major papers noticed SUPES — and they only did so peripherally, a Nexis search shows. The word “SUPES” first showed up in the Sun-Times in a June op-ed by a principal as an example of “political burdens” on educators. ….They did not mention the organization again until the federal investigation was announced the following April.

        Lauren FitzPatrick, an education reporter for the Sun-Times, suggested that the overall upheaval in the Chicago public school system and relatively small number of education reporters contributed to the Sun-Times being late to the story…. (She declined to be interviewed, citing a full schedule).

        The Sun-Times has lost about 30 editorial staff since 2012, Bob Mazzoni, a longtime copy editor and one of the paper’s union representatives, told the Columbia Journalism Review. The Tribune lost about 80 editorial employees in 2008, when the paper went through bankruptcy proceedings; 10 more were cut this summer.

        BOO HOO WE DONT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO COVER DEMOCRAT CORRUPTION

      She said she was ashamed and led astray by a sense of entitlement as head of the nation’s third-largest school district.

      Entitlement? How? Fuck these people. The bitch only got four years? Lock them up forever when caught doing that. That is third world graft bullshit.

      1. straffinrun

        Probably banked on Hillary getting elected and saw a pardon in her future.

    5. Worth linking again – the New York Times in 2002, when Byrd-Bennett was superintendent in Cleveland

      “Ms. Byrd-Bennett’s district has also been at the heart of the voucher battle, and she remains opposed to the use of government funds for private-school tuition on the grounds that it siphons resources from public schools.”

  17. straffinrun

    Well, I made the commute to work. Was laid up with a nasty bug the last two days. Of the 48 hours, I must’ve slept for 36 of them. Still feel crappy, but work is work. Almost never skip due to illness. I got the mask on so I won’t be giving the co workers any viral presents. Thoughts on going to work when sick?

    1. westernsloper

      Don’t

      1. westernsloper

        Rephrase: It depends on if you are contagious or not. I am a fan of staying away from people if you are sickly.

        1. straffinrun

          Yeah, but it’s kind of accepted that you’ll go in with just a cold.

          1. Gilmore

            it’s kind of accepted

            do people also occasionally commit seppuku in the conference rooms when they forget to replace the shared-printer cartridge? just curious

          2. westernsloper

            If it is just a cold, whatever. I am talking flu puking shitting flu stuff. You probably carry the cold into work from riding on the train.

    2. Francisco d’Anconia

      got the mask on so I won’t be giving the co workers any viral presents.

    I was bored, and a bit irritated for some reason, so I sent this email to drugfree.org:

    I know drug users. Many of them are productive, successful people supporting families with children. And yes, some others are harming themselves and their families through abuse.

    Alcohol is legal, and subject to abuse. So is food. So is sex. Yet drugs remain illegal. You and your organization support the idea that taxpaying adults aren’t free to put certain substances into their body on the basis that they might abuse those substances.

    It bothers me that I am supposed to be a free person, but I am going to be locked in a box for years if I’m discovered putting something in my body that other people decided that I shouldn’t. I admit that it could well be that trying, for instance, cocaine leads me to harm. Unfortunate, but that’s no one’s business but my own.

    Attitudes like yours leads to our Benevolent Leaders deciding other things for us. Smoking is bad for you, so we’re going to discourage its use. Sugary drinks are bad for you, so we’re going to discourage their consumption. I sincerely hope that our Dear Leaders never come around to deciding that the activities YOU enjoy should also be restricted or prohibited “for your own good”.

    Thanks for your tireless efforts to make each and every one of us less free, and may you all rot in hell for meddling in our lives.

    1. westernsloper

      Good. The fact that the “right” side of the big oppressive government coin is no different from the left side of the coin needs to be pointed out to them as often as possible. They are two sides of the same game. They just pick different liberties to squash.

  19. Gilmore

    I got the mask on so I won’t be giving the co workers any viral presents.

    from what i’ve read, facemasks have zero real prophylactic properties against airborne virus. especially if you’re ALREADY infected and you’re the source. the use of the things is mostly psychological.

    as for ‘going to work while sick’…. i don’t know. depends what you do, who you work with, and how much you care about simply ‘showing up’ and demonstrating fealty to the organization, versus actually getting productive work done. most of the times I have gone into the office while sickly, i’ve accomplished less than if i’d stayed home and done a few conference calls/answered emails,etc. Sometimes there’s no choice because something has to get done no matter what.

    1. Gilmore

      that’s a new threading-fuckup for me. Not threading *at all*. Breaking new ground!

      1. westernsloper

        I believe Not threading *at all*. is Brooksing it.

      2. straffinrun

        Had that debate a couple of times. I tend to believe the mask can help a little only because it keeps you from touching your own face. Studio work today. Audio books. Hope they wanted nasally Midwestern accent.

        1. Gilmore

          Studio work today. Audio books.

          remind them to dip the Neumann U87 in disinfectant afterward.

          1. straffinrun

            The disenfectant is ordered by the bucket load. They use the same studio for German audio books. The mic is fucking nasty after the Krauts use it.

          2. Gilmore

            The mic is fucking nasty after the Krauts use it.

            on the upside, you can use the pop filter as a wonderful sausage casing afterward

            A Swiss banker friend of mine told me that back in the day they would have to windex the teller widow glass after every third customer. I believe it.

    I want back the moment in time wherein I ginned my crush out of her panties when I was 16! That failing, the point where I broke my brother’s nose whilst driving a truck.

    1. Festus

      Whelp, my brother is an”Anti-Grand-Fa”. And so it goes…

  21. straffinrun

    We’re doing the audio books for a collection of stories by Lafcadio Hearn. interesting dude.

    1. LT_Fish

      I read something by/about him years ago, but I just can’t remember what.
