ILL ON PZONES posted:It reads like a yogurt company press release, except it was a politician being quoted in the NYT. If that doesn't seem shady to you then fine. Maybe they really talk like that in New York? Yes, it seems bizzare, especially with Sen. Schumer making sure to say that he was outraged that such a "nutritious and delicious" food was being held up. I don't think it's super shady though, because Chobani has a huge plant in upstate NY. They probably provide a lot of jobs and tax revenue. Schumer is looking out for the people in his state, which is actually his job.

I know there are a handful of russian white knights insisting that none of these images are sochi - with an international press brigade camped out in sochi right now, has anyone seen any photos of the world-class splendor I'm being told is actually in place there? So far we've got painted dirt, radioactive water, and wild dogs in front of one completely but retarded looking complex. show me the beauty of sochi, guys.

I was wrong. I'm going to go buy some delicious and nutritious Chobani(tm) yogurt right now. What's your favorite topping?

Chobani could release Wild Dog Hair yogurt flavor in rear end and it would sail through customs so loving fast.

I think one of the amazing things about Russia is if you look at their high profile billionaires they are all corrupt as gently caress criminals, like, it's not even a secret that they made their money criminally, many of them have actually been convicted multiple times of major criminal activity. And no one gives a gently caress, sure it is known fact that the gained their wealthy through criminal activity and stealing state assets but no one does anything about it, it's just accepted as fact, what are you going to do? And not just in Russia, they are openly stashing away assets worldwide and buying up billions of dollars of real estate and no one gives a gently caress that it is plainly money derived from criminal activity.

Huh, if there's so much bribe money in the air maybe i should zip over and start reporting that sochi is the crown jewel of civilization. i'm not a journalist or anything but I know how to upload pictures of nice things to twitter. could make a killing.
