Bud Light Rebate [merged threads]
TBoneTX replied to Boiler's topic in Current Events and Hot Social Topics
Even if Bud Light continues to repent, will this change your mind? Change the public's mind? Discuss, please. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Bud Light smartly tapped Shane Gillis for ads — the latest brand doing post-DEI damage control After a disastrous partnership with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney that reportedly cost the brand over $1 billion in lost sales last year, Bud Light has returned to its roots. The inch toward redemption started with a 2024 Super Bowl commercial featuring Peyton Manning and Post Malone. This week, Bud Light released a new ad starring comedian Shane Gillis — and it's a full-on embrace of the brand's fratty, frivolous ethos that, for decades, turned its ads into pop culture touchstones. And Dilly Dilly to that. If 2023 was peak woke, 2024 will be known as the year that DEI died — with corporations finally admitting it's all a shakedown by lefty activists. Recently, companies like Harley-Davidson, Ford, John Deere and Lowe's have all reversed course on DEI, thanks in large part to the work of people like Robby Starbuck calling them out. And now we get "The Dean's Office," in which Gillis plays a college football coach standing behind a dean, who is trying to extract an admission of plagiarism from a star player. In exchange for the stud athlete's confession, the dean presents him with a bucket of ice-cold Bud Lights. Instead, the coaxing works on Coach Gillis (his jacket reads Coach Herb), a professor and the dean himself, who start singing like canaries.

Why do cats hate closed doors? If you've ever witnessed a cat in front of a closed door, you might notice how much they seem to be annoyed by it. They might poke a furry arm under the crack, begin to paw at the door or even attack it while letting out agitated meows. But why do cats seem to hate closed doors so much?

Not sure how many will find this interesting, but maybe some pilots can comment on possible errors in judgment. ~~~~~~~~~~ Lost plane, passenger's remains found 17 years after plane crash near Mackinac Island MARQUETTE, Mich. (WJMN) — A private search and recovery company has found the missing wreckage and human remains from a 2007 plane crash in Lake Huron, according to Michigan State Police. The findings give closure to family members, who have waited 17 years with little evidence. The crash happened on the afternoon of August 24, 2007 when a pilot and a passenger left in a SOCATA TB-20 Trinidad, a small single-engine aircraft, from an airport from Mackinac Island to Bad Axe. It was a calm, cloudy day in the 70s with wind picking up to 5-10 mph after noon. [...] https://www.yahoo.com/news/lost-plane-passenger-remains-found-162507324.html

Haynes, contact your Congressman's office. The immigration liaison there might be able to grease the skids so that you get your green card expedited. I recommend phoning the office. There will be a routine form to fill out, giving your permission for the office to intercede on your behalf. Look on the Congressman's website for that, and have it ready to submit when you call.

Shouldn't Minnesotans be embarrassed that this clown is their governor? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chinese Dissident Ends Tim Walz's Stupid 'Grammar' Excuse for Stolen Valor ... in Two Sentences Earlier, we shared with you Tim Walz's pathetic excuse for decades of stolen valor.

WATCH: Kamala Harris Gives Disqualifying Answer When Asked About Defense of 'Biden's Capacity to Serve' [...] Kamala Harris is not just going to come right out and say Joe Biden is unfit to serve another four years in office - especially considering she was the beneficiary of his announcement and endorsement. But to sit there and pretend like Biden has been a model of strength, leadership, and intestinal fortitude since Day One? Seriously - does anyone outside of Jill Biden even believe that anymore?

HOW LOW CAN BLUE CITIES SINK? [merged threads]

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Statues in Peril Alert: San Fran Taliban On the Scan [...] The city of San Francisco, awash with excess cash and time as it is, has decided to inventory its complete public statuary holdings in an effort to determine which are appropriate and reflective of today's modern San Francisco. In the city's own words, they'd very much like to eschew traditional public art, which is now offensive to modern tastes and sensibilities, and are asking the general public to weigh in - snitch actually - on those statues that "no longer represent the values that we say the city stands for." The Taliban have come to town in an official capacity. [...] https://hotair.com/tree-hugging-sister/2024/08/29/statues-in-peril-alert-san-fran-taliban-on-the-scan-n3793828 -

Tim Walz Spends Entire CNN Interview Making Balloon Animals To Distract Attention From Kamala Harris SAVANNAH, GA — All three and a half minutes of leaked footage from CNN's pre-recorded interview with Kamala Harris and Tim Walz broke the internet this morning, revealing that Walz spent the entire duration of the interview making balloon animals to distract the interviewer from Kamala Harris. The video showed Walz furiously constructing elaborate animal shapes out of balloons in a desperate attempt to avoid having Harris answer any questions. "Oh, look, here's another one!" Walz desperately shouted around two minutes into the interview. "Hey, eyes on me, eyes on me! I have a balloon! It's an ELEPHANT and it's RED!

Biden To Get Away From Pressures And Demands Of Beach With Brief Vacation To White House REHOBOTH BEACH, DE — Sources close to President Joe Biden report that he had recently decided to "take a break" from the pressures and demands of life on the beach by taking a brief vacation to the White House. According to an anonymous staffer, the constant strain of lying on the beach had forced Biden to plan a quick weekend getaway in D.C., if only for the sake of his health. "That's right, Jack! I'm gonna take a vacruiblethahthe in the… you know, the place!" Biden reportedly shouted at a coatrack on his way out of the beach house.

Illegal Immigrants Try to Board School Buses in California Maybe this story will catch the interest of Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris, seeing as it happened in her state, involves school buses (which she loves as much as Venn diagrams), and it reflects poorly on her as being "tough as nails" on illegal immigration in California. FOX 5 San Diego reports that a group of illegal immigrants tried to hijack two school buses along Highway 94 in San Diego County. The Jamul-Dulzura Union School district has issued a warning that if a school bus encounters a group of migrants at a stop, it will keep rolling. This is not comforting.

This author has some really heartfelt things to say about this incident, as well as good food for thought. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ A Woman Dies at Her Desk and Is Found 4 Days Later; It Says Volumes About Our Lack of Connection [...] This tragic story is less about our unhealthy relationship with work and the workplace, and more about our disconnection from face-to-face interaction and community connection. I blame devices for some of this, and I am too often just as guilty as everyone else. We rely on Facebook, texts, and other social media to check in on people, including our family and loved ones. Heck, we don't even know who is running our country, and some of us don't care. This is how disconnected we have become as a country. At one job where I worked for seven years, [...] https://redstate.com/jenniferoo/2024/08/29/a-woman-dies-at-her-desk-and-is-found-four-days-later-says-volumes-about-our-society-n2178686

Interesting! ~~~~~~~~~~~~ 'Orchestrated Coup': Chuck Schumer More of a Central Player in Scheme to Force Biden Out Than We Knew [...] Though it has been previously reported that Sen. Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) had a hand in the negotiations to convince Biden to step to the side, Schumer's role has been portrayed as a reluctant one, as one of someone who really didn't want to get in the middle of the infighting after Biden's disastrous debate performance outside of some sense of loyalty to his (former) longtime Congressional colleague. Except a new report from the New York Times of all places shines more light onto Schumer's role, and as it turns out, he was much more of a central player in twisting the dagger than previously thought: [...] https://redstate.com/sister-toldjah/2024/08/29/orchestrated-coup-chuck-schumer-more-of-a-central-player-in-joe-biden-withdrawal-scheme-than-we-knew-n2178692

Ya gotta read this about Kommie's interview. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ HOT TAKES: Internet Reacts to Weird Staging of Kamala's CNN Interview and Hulking Tim Walz Well, wonders will never cease—Kamala Harris actually sat for a formal interview. Of course, it wasn't live, it was taped, and it was conducted by a friendly face in CNN's Dana Bash. Meanwhile, the VP needed the comfort blanket of her running mate and Emotional Support Governor, Minnesota's Tim Walz, just to get through it. Many subjects were discussed, and to be fair, Bash actually asked her some pointed questions on her frequent flip-flopping, but the internet had a field day with something simpler: the staging. Namely, Kamala appeared to get the child's seat, while Walz looked like he was Hagrid sitting next to her.

We argued with him and had to yell at him in a (fortunately empty) stairwell, displeased we man. Mini-B. said that he'd walk to the casa, about a mile man. We let him go, bye man. Teechur sessions were good, very short man. Everyone had good things to say about Mini-B., needed to hear that man. Hurt ourself climbing stairs, used lousy elevator after that man.

We remained displeased, rebellion impermissible man. Din-din was beef pot pies, ingest Two Guys man. Mini-B. offered to refill our cups of root beer, contrite wee man. He has just agreed without argument to quit computer-gaming and ready himself for bed, si man. Maybe he has a guilty conscience, si man. No party with the rubias tonight, back hurts too much man. Only Many (2+1) ESs itineraried for Friday, unbelievably few available this weekend man. And that was/is our thrilling Thursday, report we man.
