Honestly, I bought it as a bookshelf decoration, because I like Sriracha, and I think the bottle is neat. The beer tastes like butt, but I pretty much expected that.

We're all mandatory gay married now, guys :getin:

All of you who are straight-married? Sorry, your marriage is now invalid (in the US). You're all forced to marry a donkey, your cousin, or a fleshlight. Alternatively, you may marry a dildo, as long as you bring a douche as well. All weddings must have at least one Miata in attendance, along with several pounds of glitter.

THE GAYS HAVE SPOKEN, SO IT IS SO. :colbert:

The first legally performed gay marriage in Texas was performed right here in DFW (in Dallas). Denton County is still saying "gently caress off", but the minister from my church performed at least one ceremony right on the steps on the (now historic and inactive) Denton County courthouse today. They're also hosting a mass marriage event on July 11th. The most interesting part of that announcement is "Couples may choose from secular, Christian, Unitarian Universalist, or Druid ceremonies/officiants. No religious affiliation necessary."

I am most often of the view that Republicans are evil and Democrats are incompetent. Today's rulings has certainly emphasized some of that. However, I recognize that you can't apply one rule to an entire group of people. Local Republican representative just came up with this:

I wish both sides would quit the "either black or white" binary robot think bullshit and see that the truth is largely found in the middle.

There's a reason that church and state are supposed to remain separate in the US. Nobody is going to force a church to perform a same sex marriage if their congregation and pastor/minister don't agree (and I'm sure many, many churches will take this stance). There's going to be a divide even between churches of the same denomination. Leave it up to each individual church to decide if they want to handle such a marriage.

I've never been religious in general, but I've gotten involved with a UU church, and while I don't consider myself Christian (or anything beyond "humanist" - I got involved more because they're heavily involved in the community), I'm really happy with the direction that the particular church I'm involved with is going, especially in regards to LGBT issues. If/when I get married, it will definitely be there.

EDIT: This is (lovely) satire. Satire of the 3 people I've had to unfriend on Facebook today.

I've unfriended about 30 or 40 in the past 48 hours. Mostly because I'm just trying to narrow my Facebook down to people I either know IRL, and/or people I've known online forever (since my IRC days)... also because I've learned (finally) that having your boss and current coworkers on your friends list is a bad, bad idea. But today's removals were because of the vitriol they started posting about the gays. So those goons who noticed I disappeared from their friends list, it's not personal.

Happy loving days.

My boss today said "just wait till they try to get a Christian judge to perform a same sex marriage.. and watch how quickly that judge gets removed when they refuse!"

Except last I checked, it's pretty much an unspoken rule that you be some form of Christian to hold any elected office in Texas. I wasn't sure if I should smack him for being ignorant, or just ignore him. He didn't mean any malice by the statement, but the statement implied that LGBTs cannot be Christian, and that Christians cannot approve of same sex marriage.

I was raised Christian (Baptist), and as conservative as they get. Somehow I wound up going from Christian -> agnostic -> atheist -> generic humanist that thinks there's something that can be learned from all religions even if you don't believe in one, and far right wing -> far left wing -> left leaning. Probably safe to say I'll never hold office in Texas. :haw:

The owner of Gas Monkey (Richard Rawlings) is a loving tool on TV. He also owns a bar/nightclub (both the garage and club are here in DFW), and according to some friends who've played there, he's a loving jackass in person as well. He's basically tried to copy Danny Koker (from the show Count's Kustoms), right down to opening a bar/nightclub, except from what I've seen, even on TV Danny seems to be a pretty nice guy.

I have no idea why the gently caress Dodge chose him (Richard) to do so many ads.

And yes - Gas Monkey Garage is the centerpiece of Fast N' Loud on Discovery. For whatever reason my network-based TV tuners can't get Discovery (or Crime/Investigation - both channels just show "No TV Signal" when I try to watch), but I don't really see any big loss at this point. I do have a stand-alone digital converter box for the CRT in the den that can get Discovery, so if I ever feel like seeing a dickhead yelling at his employees and running them off, I can watch TV in there (several of his employees left and started a competing shop at some point). I miss being able to watch Count's Kustoms, but I can always watch episodes on Discovery's website.

rear end Monkey Garage is a show about a dumbass hipster that runs a garage flipping cars with a formula that goes like this:

1. Find a (planted) classic car for sale and haggle them to death until they sell it cheap.

2. Get it cleaned up and add a bunch of bolt on parts, usually air bags/wheels/engine mods. Maybe paint.

3. Find a (planted) buyer to get haggled into paying too much for the car.

Add garage shenanigans.

Rinse/repeat.

They had the owner/CEO of Twin Peaks come by once, with several sets of breasts along to help "influence" the deal.

The Bronco he wound up with was drat nice, but not worth nearly what the show claims he paid for it. And I guarantee that Bronco has been driven maybe half a dozen times since then, if that. That episode was so scripted that it made my brain hurt.

Obviously, the majority of "reality" shows are are scripted too, but I thought it was pretty hilarious when Count's Kustoms restored Bob Marley's last car for Ziggy Marley. Not the restoration itself - they did a beautiful job on the car, especially since it was a EU-specific model that was very difficult to get parts for - but because of the social interaction between Danny and Ziggy.

They originally met up at Danny Koker's bar, IIRC, and in every scene after they talked to Ziggy, it was SO loving OBVIOUS that everyone was stoned out of their skulls. Danny was obviously forcing his eyes to open to something resembling normal, but they were so glazed over and red... and it was obvious he'd used eyedrops to try and counteract. :2bong: They also spread it across 2 episodes, and both episodes showed Danny stoned to the gills. (SHOCKING NEWS, biker that owns a hot rod shop smokes :420: and appears stoned on camera, NEWS AT 11)

I was going to say "gently caress those guys", but the reality is that they're loving themselves, because they're not going to get anyone that can do that job well, or if they do it'll be someone that does it for a year or two to get the line item on their resume and then leaves and they're high and dry again.

It's probably safe to assume they pay and treat their brewmaster similarly which may explain the lovely beer comments. I don't think I've ever had any of their beer though, it's not really my style.
