Wow, some people still don't understand how social media works.

Short recap, brewery owner makes political comments on Facebook, pisses off many of his customers.

what a piece of ****
deserves every bit of backlash he gets

where i live is very republican. local liquor store owner posted some horrific **** after Michael Brown was murdered. i stopped frequenting his place immediately after that. not surprisingly, his store is apparently more popular than ever. even built his own store in the last 18 or so months.
 
So the guy who cannot successfully purge opossums from his house wants to have a human purge.

I hate you.
 
I thought some ******* just rated 10 straight beers from Rogue perfect (5/5) on BA. . .

8 of them were DIPA/IPA/Pale Ales. . . (**** Rogue is even worse at?)

I mean, dude, if you would have given Double Chocolate Stout, Chocolate Stout, Shakespeare Stout, Old Crustacean barleywine such inflated ratings. . . I would have just ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ bc they're good (albeit not perfect) beers.

But calling 10 Rogue beers "perfect"?

Right in the middle of my angst, I realized he rated "Rouge River" not "Rogue". Just a homer rating every beer released from a 2017 brewery all 5s.

Can't decide what I hate more, the idea of hoppy Rogue beers being called perfect, or a homer calling every single beer a new brewery makes "perfect". Or that I care.

Anyways, I guess the fallout from this is I hate beer, I hate myself for caring enough to hate beer and I've already counted strike 1 against Rouge River brewing despite never having had their beers.

Should be this one.

This reminds me of untappd user "buffalobeard." He's checked into 141 distinct beers, but has 1778 total check-ins... 893 of which are Montucky Cold Snack. I don't know if he's a homer, works for Montucky Cold Snacks, is a troll, or wait, why the **** do I care?

Well, there's 60 seconds of my life I can't get back.

I wish Montucky Cold Snack tasted as awesome as the cans look.
 
Trying to find a new chair for IPA releases. Does anyone have feedback on the below or recommendation(s)?

Portable but comfort is lacking.

shopping


Luxurious but impractical? and might block access to sidewalk for ADA counterparts.

shopping


This distributes my backfat evenly

shopping


Nice look but worried about stains

shopping


Inexpensive and traditional

shopping


Alternative is a bench for rest of my squad, no back rest options but holders for La Croix cans

shopping
That last one is the Human Centipede of chairs.

Dan Shaughnessy managed to rustle many local jimmies with his article entitled "It's hard to get pumped up about a Super Bowl gainst...Atlanta".

I am quoting it below in its entirety to avoid giving this column any more clicks than it deserves. As an Atlantan since 2003 who has embraced all of its sports teams (I've even gone to Atlanta Beat and Atlanta Thrashers games), I know what I think of the article. I'm curious what a neutral observer (i.e., a non-Boston fan and non-Atlantan) thinks about the column.

Here it is:
