 Anheuser-Bush U.S. Profits Down 30% After Dylan Mulvaney Fiasco :


Anheuser-Busch InBev felt the sting of the Bud Light boycott, reporting a 10.5% drop in revenue and a nearly 30% plunge in core profit in the US during the second quarter — and has lost nearly $40 billion in value.

Yet the Belgian-based beer giant company continued to bury its head over the ill-fated tie-up with trans influencer Dylan Mulvaney that has seen Bud Light on the precipice of losing its two-decade reign as the top-selling brand in the US.

On the Sunday grill: My May 1984 33-cent hamburger should cost 96-cents in May 2023, instead it costs $1.24

 It's nearly 30% overpriced.

The inflation-adjusted pound of ground beef over the period should cost $3.82.

I buy the good stuff, however. My burger costs $1.50, washed down with a cheap pint of Hamm's Beer for 83-cents.

I'll be back to beans and rice on Monday.

A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

Move over bread and circuses, Bernie brings beer and music


CEDAR RAPIDS, Iowa — Fans danced gleefully to music while guzzling beer. Smiles abounded and deafening cheers arose without warning. And, in the restroom, someone was smoking what smelled like marijuana.

Yes, it was a concert. Yes, it was a party. ...

Sanders fans filled the floor and the first level at the U.S. Cellular Center in downtown Cedar Rapids, where the concessions were open and individual vendors walked around selling beer and bottled water. The men’s restroom on the floor level had the distinct odor of marijuana smoke.

Just tried White Claw for the first time tonight: Tastes like it needs alcohol in it, except it's already in there

No "mouth feel" or complexity of flavor and smell like you get from a proper cocktail, glass of wine or beer. A trifle with a kick.


President Pocahontas would ban fracking everywhere, making it cost much more to heat the tepee

I'll tell you exactly what would have happened, Joe

Obama would have been buried, and beer sales would have gone through the roof from all the people celebrating and filling up to piss on his grave, that's what would have happened.

Gov. Coonman (D-VA): That's not me in blackface on that page for Ralph Northam

"I think I'll have another beer" is the guy in the hood talkin' then.

Stonewall Coonman is his real name, I think.
