Okay, Wayne managed to make it through Rebirth and not die young sipping lean. But what a dumbshit billing. The people who would go to a Blink-182 reunion show are too young to know anything but Wayne’s biggest hits, and why would a Weezy fan pay to see Blink open? 

This is a total non sequitur. “Women should be able to get drunk and not get sexually assaulted” does not imply “women should be able to get drunk and sexually assault people”.

Looks like you need to have a serious sit-down with your daughter about Cancel Culture. It’s time.

Can we excise the word “authenticity” from food writing? What is authentic? Is something not authentic if they’re third-generation Chinese-American and they eat moo goo gai pan? Is authentic geography-based? Does progress and time dilute authenticity even if it’s cooking done in the heart of Chengdu? It’s such a…

Even controlling for the facts that 1. many Linklater movies are hard to sum up in a trailer and 2. most trailers suck anyway, the previews for this have been particularly wretched. No indication of what the hell this is about with a inspirational indie bullshit score underneath, the trailers are spraying flop sweat.

It’s certainly not damaging their brand in Texas, where the company originated. I assume the KC park was set up as a separate company because there is zero talk of this bringing down the whole company. The parks in Galveston and New Braunsfels (not far from San Antonio) are packed every day. I bet most people here…

I don’t want to stoke the embers of conspiracy or whatever, but there are definitely some bits in the trailers that aren’t in the final film—and while that’s not uncommon, it’s a little unusual that some of the latest versions of the trailers still include some of that material. That combined with the amount of…

Even sillier counterpoint:

1. Recycled plastic is pretty much bullshit gimmickry that is increasingly ebing abandoned due to diminishing returns from recycling it

Reminds me more of Hereditary.

If anyone hasn’t read Schlitterbahn’s Tragic Slide by Skip Hollandsworth over at Texas Monthly I strongly recommend it. It does a deep dive into the perfect storm of arrogance and so-called “small government” that created this horrifying accident.

You’re not supposed to reuse plastic bottles more than a few times because the plastic starts to leech into your food/beverages after several washing. They’re basically not the right type of plastic for reuse.

Maybe he was just mildly pissed the Lexus decided to stop right on the crosswalk, and just wanted to make a point?

Out of respect, all local Taco Bells have ordered their flags to be flown at half más

I was truly hoping this post would turn into a compendium of Four Loko horror stories and it has not disappointed. Thank you all. 

Story time! Back in college I used to travel to paintball tournaments, the weekend-long kind where you’d camp out for two nights and paintball on Saturday and Sunday. One of the teams we played with regularly was made up of guys who worked at the regional Miller group responsible for the Steel Brewing Company…

Aren’t hard seltzers mostly a national-brand thing right now?

That’d be like going to a Bud Light festival.

Oh wait, they have those.  They’re called NFL games.  

I think four loko is going to be the millenial generations “they sold what when you were a kid?!?” story. if anything it was actually worse than cocaine coke since at least that only pointed you in one direction.

OK Story time from Uncle Bongo: Way back when Four Loko had caffeine my Aunt ventured to the big city (Madison, WI) to get supplies for a big “Cinco De Mayo” (pronounced like mayonnaise) since the only Mexican supplies in my home town came from Old El Paso. While in the liqueur department buying Corona she snagged a…
