We all know a few. Family members, friends and so on.
When that silly "report" came out a week or so ago about how "liberals like clear liquor and conservatives like dark beer" or what ever, it's like all of a sudden Republican friends just had to show everybody they like dark beer. Ones that I've seen drink nothing but Bud Light piss water all of a sudden have to be all, "Look! I gotta black and tan!"
Heck, that's generally my order of beer when I go out and always has been. Never liked clear liquor either. Hasn't a thing to do with personal politics. You like what you like, right?
Now, yesterday, a co-worker who spends a good portion of his typical day fucking off on Drudge, Blaze and all the rest, was always getting lattes from Starbucks or what ever local coffee outfit was on the way to work. Nothing in particular, or as Big Ed says, "No big shakes".
Today, he's all loud and proud about his "regular coffee" and a couple people had to "congratulate" him because "Barack drinks lattes".
Dipshits. Every damn last one of them. Haven't seen such monkey-see monkey-do since I was in the fifth grade.

If you really want to capitalize on your result, start a chocolate rabbit turd factory just before you tell them about Obama.

"Conservatives" are assholes who deserve to be robbed of their money.

(15,382 posts)When France decided not to sign on to GWB's Iraq mistake, patriots got mad and along with renaming French Fries, Freedom Fries, a lot of them went to their local liquor store, bought French wine then dumped it in the street, which is pretty much the opposite of a boycott.
Speaking of which...
I saw a FB post the other day about a guy who was aghast that Toys R Us sells Ouija Boards so he bought them all, dumped them in the parking lot, got the manager to come out, and destroyed them in front of him to show what a good Christian he is. Comments were running about 1 to 4 of, "Yay, God loves you!" to "Dude, you just bought a bunch of cheap cardboard crap that they're just going to restock." sprinkled with a bit of, "Why don't you join us in the 21st century? It's nice here."

There must be some clever ideas out there for fooling repubs into liking all kinds of things they don't like. I'm not that imaginative but it sure would be fun to make them do things that are good - all in the name of defiance and
spite.

And, I've been drinking coffee, black ... no sugar, since forever. I can't stand lattes (nor the price).

(406 posts)Lattes are just milk with some coffee "shots" thrown into it. How that equates to $3 or $4, I'll never know...other than it sends the heart rate through the god damn roof.

Sheldon Leonard. Outside of Jimmy's George Bailey, Nick's my favorite character in that movie.

(12,132 posts)the only conservative I've been drinking with in the last year gets Bud Light or vodka/cranberry every time. It's so bad he starts making fun of himself before we even get a chance to. We go places that have hundreds of craft and imports on tap but he gets bud light.
