can we get serious for a minute?

y'all can bag on chili's all you want, but there is not a chain within 7 miles of me in any direction, and the closest chili's is 9+ miles away. i know in texas, 9 miles takes 9 minutes, but here that's like an hour. some nights, i would kill half of you for a nice chicken ranch sandwich. they basically invented the buffalo chicken sandwich as far as i'm concerned, and have gotten no real props for that.

sorry to get all real with you, but there are more serious issues in the world than the presidential election.

as you were.

Chili's was always my go-to if I was on a business trip that lasted more than 3 nights.  First three nights I would seek out interesting, local restaurants.  By the fourth night, I was tired and just wanted to go to some place that was easy.

also i won't stand idly by while chili's gets lumped in with applebee's. i'm honestly not sure if i've ever been to an applebee's.

I took away from the story the Epstein angle.  I wonder if there is going to be a push to really elevate that aspect of his groping and creepy history.

Everybody knows. (Leonard Cohen)

If he has his hand fully up Ivanka's dress as he's trying to shove his tongue in her mouth, there might be a kerfuffle. Or a female who actually looks like a minor, I suppose. If the female is 15 buy looks 19, nobody dedicated to this POS will care. Fake news.

We've seen it all with this guy. It's right in front of all of us. He would have to have a moment like Lonesome Rhodes in A Face in the Crowd (essential viewing with Network) where he's caught on mic talking about how he controls the yokels and idiots who do whatever he says.

Trump has come close with his arrogant yet accurate remarks of how hard it would be for him to lose followers. Their hate and fear keep them true to their dealer.

As a young boy, I always thought of shooting for the stars in life.  Today, I know I've made it... my office is walking distance to the 45th and Lamar Chili's.  

Dream big, fellas... dream big!

I think that I'm profoundly insulted by that. Wait. Wait. Yes, insulted profoundly, Carton. 

One day, when you stumble half-drunk to the Old Baily, I will be there. I will step out of Jarndyce and Jarndyce long enough to even this score. Prepare for a caning, sir!

That's every day, sir. Your world is nothing but pure opportunity.

Seemed obvious that was going to happen. So long as the polling like that stays around 46 or fewer for Trump in these things it's good overall IMO.

You know, until the riots.

Then how do you know they're not superior? You should sample it for yourself, if only to affirm your instincts. Take lots of pics.

Pssshh. I can easily walk to a Chili's AND an Outback Steakhouse. From my HOUSE. Your move, big shot.

I’d like to tell you about the rebirth in quality happening at Subway, but Chili’s is just too damn good right now.

Does Chilis sell chili any more? I couldn’t find it on the menu at Love Field yesterday.

Good bless them for not selling chili before people step onto a plane.

Wow, maybe it is really looking bad for the GOP if they're doing this shit again.

Probably less of the wealthier small donor base piece and more simply having more small donors; the GOP leans more on megadonors (relativly speaking - plenty of that money on the Democratic side obviously).

Dumb question:

We get exit polls on Election Day. Are the returns you guys are posting the same thing? If not, why aren’t there exit polls now?

It's already really hard to get a workable sample when you're spending days cold calling until you git your numbers. Trying to do that with the limited subset of people out voting early is even harder.

Chili's fucks, especially their chips and salsa fukkin' come at me

watery tomato juice with no spice.  the chips are fine, but the bagged sea salt HEB version is superior.

The burger (and the chicken buffalo ranch i guess) is/are the only constant that has withstood the test of time.  All other previously decent things about Chili's have fallen victim to the enshittification principle.

How many other and republicans are voting kamala? That's the key question that no one had good data on. I suspect it's quite a few.

 

And this will be another area where maga will cry “stolen” and “rigged” because they will see the number of R voters but they won’t have the cognitive capability to realize not all R voters voted for turnip.

that's one thing I like about the Texas ballots - you get a printout at the end that you can review. one last firewall before it gets counted. it could still get fucked with from there, I know, but at least there is the appearance of layers of security

You get 2 reviews - on screen and printed.

And yet they still cry that the votes are being switched.

assume the "other" are first time voters that haven't voted in a primary. I wonder if you could get a male/female breakout from that group? Might give you a pretty good idea of how that group will break.

I agree. The "silent" trump voters from 2016 and to some extent 2020 were republicans who knew he was flawed but voted for him anyway without talking about it in open company. I think they are now silent "Kamala" voters because he's now the undisputed leader of the party and being a republican that doesn't support trump is traitorous in those circles, but to them, the bluster and bullshit has become too much. I think it's far more likely Kamala wins an electoral landslide than trump wins straight up. God damnit I hope I'm right.

Is this something you have to ask for?

Or do you mean the last page on the electronic ballot where everyone you voted for is listed?

No, you vote on the screen, it prints out, then you run it through a scanner. The printed copy is actually what's counted.

In a sane country, Upton’s endorsement would equate to a landslide. Instead we get a likely Trump victory. I have no desire to hear why people decided to vote for him at this point but I am sure we are going to get about 200 NYT articles about it.

I kind of sort of knew that, but I can't remember the last time I saw a hard copy of my completed ballot.

I’d love to see the numbers from Westmoreland, Washington, or Lancaster counties before I get too excited about those numbers. I expect she’ll do fine on the eastern 1/3 of the state. I’m more concerned about the western half.

They had better still serve the chicken crispers with honey mustard.
