So you're vying for a job in the Trump administration? Is that you Chris Christie?

More like roving goon squads of weaponized internet trolls. I'm really starting to worry that a lot that I dismissed as hyperbole and good old-fashioned liberal bedwetting is going to prove to be more real than I ever thought possible.

I don't know how serious Perlman is, but honestly this might be the best way forward for the Democrats. It's been a real bummer reading how in addition to the terrifying future that awaits us, that the Ds don't have a ton of new blood to draw from in 2020. Now that apparently all bets are off and experience is not…

Kinda like how racism was magically gone forever after Obama was elected? Now we're free to go back to only electing white men because the theoretical possibility of running shit is just as good as, y'know, actually getting to!

When the writing was on the wall that he was going to win, for the first time in my life I started thinking that maybe it was time for me to become a gun owner.

That it was unrealistic to think we could clean up the absolute shithouse mess of the Bush Wars and make it like they never happened?

I still don't get how the entire Internet's response to that announcement was all "yay, Dave Chapelle's back" and no "WTF, there is no Tribe without Phife". I mean I'm sure it's going to pay plenty of tribute to Phife, but it still feels like it should be billed as Q-Tip & Ali Shaheed Muhammad of ATCQ or something…

I watched this a few weeks ago because I had just read Dandelion Wine and was in a real Bradbury mood. Something Wicked This Way Comes and From The Dust Returned are October staples for me, but somehow I had never read The Halloween Tree or seen the cartoon. Maybe I'm just coming to it 30 years too late, but I was…

I can say that growler stations and bars with lots on tap around here do tend to have IPAs on close to half their taps. Same thing for supermarkets - they might have only two or three beers from any given brewery, but you can guarantee that one of them is going to be an IPA.

I'm iffy on sours myself but I really like Dogfish's SeaQuench ale. It's made with limes and sea salt and it's just about the perfect blend of citrus and saltiness - not too sour and very drinkable. I wish I had found it at the beginning of the summer instead of the end.

And all the beers you recommended are impossible to find here in Texas. Availability for microbrews varies a ton based on region so my go-to beer that's available anywhere in my neighborhood might not be available at all one state over. The upside is, it adds another element of fun to visiting a new city, now that…

Agreed. I'd even counter the first paragraph of this article that amongst beer nerds being "really into IPAs" is more a sign of a newbie than someone who really knows their stuff. I've had a theory for a while that it's because the difference between other beer styles are much more subtle, while most American IPAs…

Nope, just assclowns who spend their whole day trolling AV Club Newswires with their persecution fantasies.

Remember when all the racists were big Dave Chappelle fans? Same thing. She's popular enough and drawing big enough crowds that a decent chunk of her audience are dummies who only know her from a skit they saw on Facebook one time.

The way they've adopted "deplorable" as a badge of honor really shows how the only belief they really stand for is trolling. It's like a not-insignificant segment of the country has all of a sudden embraced a pro wrestling heel turn.

Counterpoint: no, it was nothing like that.

Somebody please get Corey Feldman in a room together with Tommy Wiseau. The magic those two could make together!

That line in the Hamilton song about "the way Don Pardo said Laraine Newman" gave me the most unexpected warm fuzzies.

"You don't win an election by throwing potshots at your competitor, you do it with points of logic."

Modern conservatism seems to be based in large part on overwhelming empathy for your immediate social circle and a near complete lack of empathy for anyone outside it.
