    Biden has the chance to do the coolest thing. He wont because hes the most tepid person in the most tepid party in the country but, I’d love to be wrong.

      Such a good word to describe Biden. Tepid. Like a beer that’s been sitting while i worked outside, or maybe the last sip of coffee. Not the best, but better than nothing.

        Supporting genocide and not stepping down when your opponent is a literal fascist and you’re unelectable, gets you compared with the last sip of coffee?

        We have very different opinions about the fundamental nature of “old, room temperature, completely flat” beer, if nothing else.

            Luckily, in this day and age, clean water is both cheap and plentiful. Unless you’re in one of the places where it isn’t. But in that case I doubt you have access to room temperature beer, either.

              Wasn’t this not really true, historically? Didn’t most societies have a bunch of alcoholism specifically because it was one of the only forms of clean water available, or am I mistaken?

              Not if we’re following the analogy. Warm beer, or bleach. Or dying of thirst. Those are your options.

        Yeah I’m still drinking that last sip of coffee, I don’t care if it’s cold. Apt word, apt description.

        Especially when the alternative is a glass of poison. A warm, flat beer is not going to kill you, even though it might taste disgusting.

        The worst thing is that you don’t get to choose whether you’re drinking the warm, flat beer or the poison. Depending on where you live your vote might not even matter. A bunch of uninformed and misinformed idiots in a few random states will decide for you which you’re drinking.

      Tepid people wouldn’t have plagiarized so many speeches back when they thought no one would notice.
