We never really got around to dealing with those horrible Republican hipster outreach ads, mostly because the guy in this ad was so whiny we wanted to punch his face and couldn't even make it through a 24-second ad, which is saying something. Seriously that guy is a whiny little baby. You don't want to think about money before you fill up your gas tank? Grown ups generally think about money, even if something is cheap! And you're a Republican because you want an energy policy that favors many different types of energy sources? We believe that actually makes you a Democrat, sir.
Completely OT, I just want to remark that this would be yet another great comment from you, if there were comments. I realize that I rarely reply to your comments, because generally the only replies possible are "<some indication of hilarious agreement>" to the funny ones, or "what he said" to the more serious.
That's all. Like your comments. Hope life is treating you well.
Sorry it takes me a while to respond, I'm a 'wonk while at work' kind of guy, snarking for pay (!), so I do it late in the day sometimes, which is usually the 3rd page of not-existing-comments. Also I rarely visit over the weekends. Plus I am terrible at people skills like responding to responses.
Life is good here, hopefully everything is great for you out in the wilderness! Maybe someday when Trix comes around again to sit on laps, and whatnot, we can all catch up?
Scotty. Don't you wonder why gas prices are high after the U.S. received all those billions of barrels of sweet Iraqi crude as compensation for their liberation?
Hey, the rents gotten too damn high in Austin! Instead of it being the place where hippies go to die it's become the place where hipsters go to buy condos.
"I support every kind of energy policy: Gas, gasoline, racing gas, petrol, both unleaded and premium, gas for cars, fuel for lawnmowers, even diesel for trucks. And jet fuel. I haven't even mentioned kerosene yet! I think gas should be allowed in metal cans, or plastic cans, and of course tankers of all sizes. I support gas gumbo, gas kabobs, gas creole, gas stew, lemon gas, coconut gas..."
Felice Nazzard?
The Mini Cooper convertible?

That was really well done. It hadn't occurred to me that ABP was restricting my opportunities to construct found-object poetry.
But, happily, I now realize that I am bested in that genre, so I'll keep blocking ads.
(It really is good. In addition to the great links, it almost scans).

Bobbert!! Good to hear from you!

Scott Greenberg. Jewish. Hipster. Republican.
Next month's message: Maria Rodriguez. Latina. Feminist. Republican.
The Republican Party: Continuing the image outreach perfected by Nixon in blue pinstripe suit and wingtips on the beach.
Rick Perry would be upset to hear this, but he's already thought about two things today. He's maxed out.
What color fucking jammies is he wearing and how many marshmallows are in his cocoa? Isn't that really what matters?
(Suddenly it's ok to be a hipster doofus in these ads. Did we miss the memo?)

At least click over to HappyNiceTimeExtraIncome. Even if you don't post it helps to keep Dok Zoom and friends in hobo beans.
We haven't even talked about my heating bill
OH, THAT'S GREAT NEWS! THERE IS GOING TO BE A SEQUEL!!
Hard to tell. So many people on Sixth street or Guadalupe look like him!
