67. it's on par with the high-brow discourse I've come to expect from "The old Deee-Yeewww", dear chap



why just last week I was speaking with some rough and tumble reg'lar workin' folks at a Hillary Clinton $60,000 a plate fundraiser, and indeed they all agreed that the effete snobs supporting the Sanders campaign were much too elitist for their rough-hewn and workaday sensibilities.

Lame bouncy.

He didn't start the bouncy with "So I was at the bar"  very poor bouncy, this primitive needs to hone his skills a bit.

So if I read this correct, everyone was listening to the same conversation.  One of two things would have to happen, either it's a extremely small bar or the story is BS.  Then again it a DUmmie story and we all know they lie.

But were any of the patrons of ethnic extraction, BLM, BLM.  Details man, we more need details.  If you don't have cops and bushes can you at least have a Carl Carlson?  And if there was no cheering but how about one of the gang goes over to the Wurlitzer, spins up Lee Greenwood's "God Bless The USA" while another rips off his/her shirt showing off a Stars 'n Bars tat??   Lets punch up those bouncers (oh wait that might not be such a good idea, the hit back).

People, good  :bouncy: do not write themselves you know!! :stoner:   Remember: 'Tis the season for nominations for DOTY and you won't even get honorable mention with such lackluster fare. :fuelfire:

I'm really not understanding the point of either bouncy, although I suspect the response bouncy is sarcastic.  I really miss the days when I could rely on a cop jumping out of a bush.

Agreed. He said nothing about getting up in the guys face and telling him all about the wonderous wonderfulness of bernie and democrats in general, said nothing about the guys tone changing, said nothing about everyone in the bar all of a sudden taking him seriously because...facts, or something. He also said nothing about everyone agreeing to look seriously at bernie, then buying him a beer. He also said nothing about changing the minds of conservatives and switching them to liberals.

All in all, a -3 on a scale of 1-10 bouncy.

2. I've even heard the dreaded "C" word

Communist--given the many, many good folks who object to socialism often confuse it with communism. A tangle indeed, I have heard it put that very way.. The rest of the bar "Oh HELL no"

I suppose a big speech explaining the differences might help...

21. So you are paying $10 a beer for product that costs at the most

$1 a pull hanging out at the public house doing nothing? The socialists are out canvassing and attending city council meetings, going to meet ups with like minded socialists to get our country to again be a place for the middle class

28. My point, and you said you were paying $10 a beer with your friends

who hate socialists. I don't know any Bernie supporters that hang out in either bars or "pubs". I don't think you know any either. The Bernie supporters in my area are organizing and working for him. The strongest drink imbibed is coffee and most don't even drink that.

Sounds like a real fun crowd. 

About that speech explaining socialism,

57. There was nothing to cover. He just repeated his old stump speech talking points.

The same old stuff about how he just wants to be like Denmark. Except of course Denmark is not a democratic socialist country, as its leader recently said, correcting Bernie.

If Bernie was going to do that, it is hard to understand why he waited so long--even putting off the speech. Odd.

44. I'm not one to speak ill of Bernie but

I was in Vegas this weekend and mentioned the name "Bernie Sanders" on three separate occasions; one to a cabbie; one to a hotel desk clerk and one more to a cafe waitress. Each reacted with a blank look as if to say "Who the hell is that?". I had to explain to these folks that he was a candidate for president.

I never brought up the subject of him being a "socialist" since they didn't have a clue he even existed.

Bernie supporters have a really tough sales job ahead of them. "Double" tough.

Especiallly since he yells all the time, spits and drools, and can't remember to comb his hair.  And oh yeah, he's a Communist.

Overheard at the bar


(Aka as a "pub", but for folks that can't afford 10 bucks for a beer)

"I ain't voting for no socialist"

Rest of bar patrons: "Me neither"

Oh, Maggie, bless your heart, you should include at least some hallmarks of a good bouncy:

So, I was at the bar the other night minding my own business. There were two guys on their 5th or 6th beer sitting just a few stools down from me talking about the election. They were obviously uneducated racist rednecks cuz this was their conversation (I remember the whole thing verbatim because that's another hallmark of a good bouncy):

Joe-Bob: Who you voting for, Cletus?

Cletus: I was think about that Trump guy. He's gonna kick out all them illegals and send those refugees packing, too. We're being invaded.

Joe-Bob: And he won't let A-ran get a nuke! I kinda like the black guy but we have one of those for president now and he's made a mess of this country. He hates Christians and wants to bring in as many Muslims as he can.

Cletus: Now you know they ain't all alike, Joe-Bob.

Joe-Bob (he practically shouts at the top of his lungs): I'll tell you one thing, I ain't voting for no socialist!

A few of the people said "me neither" but most just looked disgusted. I couldn't take any of their racism anymore and told them their words were racist and offensive. I said, "No one is illegal. Many of them have children & grandchildren who were born here. It's not very Christian to split up families. And those refugees are escaping a war zone. How would you like it if you had to live with that kind of fear everyday?"

Joe-Bob: Them illegals have no respect for our laws. They can take their families back with them.

Cletus: And them refugees, I've seen pictures on Fox News. Most of 'em are military age men and everyone knows they want to blow us up!

I tried to remind them they should have compassion for their fellow man and that they shouldn't watch Faux Snooze all the time, that maybe those military aged men are peaceful Muslims who don't want to be forced to fight for ISIS. I told them racism has no place in our world today and shame on them. Well, about that time Joe-Bob leaps off his stool and starts coming at me while Cletus is in the background shouting "Git him, Joe-Bob!" The other patrons were appalled at these drunk rednecks.

Luckily, at that moment a cop jumps out from behind a potted plant next to the men's room and escorts them out. Everyone at the bar cheered and wanted to buy me a drink for how much knowledge I had and how I put them in their place.


See, Maggie, it's in the details. If you don't have a good enough imagination to embellish a situation, or make it up completely, then you really shouldn't try. It reflects poorly on the rest of DU and is disrespectful of Bouncy Ball's legacy.
