Thu Oct 3, 2013, 09:30 PM

Oct 2013

Every time the bartender asks "What do you want?" ... they say ...

1) "A primary opponent for Obama".

2) "Obama to use the bully-pulpit more".

3) "Obama to stop giving so many pretty speeches".

4) "A single payer bar tab".

5) "A total collapse of the capitalist society under which you serve watered down drinks, so that a socialist utopia will emerge in which the drinks are provided equally to all members of society, not just those of us who have the money. Money that the 3 of us don't actually have, sadly."

6) "No drinks. We're just here to protest your use of genetically modified hops in the beer".

7) "Oppps, this is the DU Lounge??? Sorry, we meant to go to General Discussion."

8) "We heard Glenn Greenwald like to come here, we have NSA secrets to share with him."

9) "Three white Russians, and a basket of Putin chips please."

10) "Oh crap, the members of the BOG come here!!"
