Last year when gas prices were going through the roof I had a coworker with whom politics had never previously been discussed. He came up to me screaming “FUCK Biden!” He eventually started ranting about gas prices. I asked him what specific thing Biden had done to raise gas prices, and he garbled something about shutting down pipelines.  
The people who throw these idiotic terms around never have an actual clue if you ask them to be specific. They’re fed by the right wing radio, TV, and internet fuckwads, and they revel in their own ignorance and anger.  
I guess it does something for them. Doesn’t sound like a good way to me.

This thread seems more appropriate for the Pit. @Son_of_a_Rich, please let me know if you’d like it reopened there.

I had to look that one up. It’s a marketing term for “Fermented Malt Beverage”.

Does anyone know what PAB stands for?

Someone has already asked about this, was there any answer from the OP?

We’re talking about the same people that claimed that Trump would never have let a spy balloon fly over the US (he did) and that Biden wasn’t taking balloons down fast enough. This was of course followed by OUTRAGE at the cost of shooting down the balloons.

You know, morons.

Sigh.

My considered opinion (ie, the one that makes it possible for me to get out of bed each day) is that WE _still_ don’t let children run around waving loaded handguns.

THEY do.

And _they’re_ the problem here.

To be fair, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea is not democratic or a republic. It is on the Korean peninsula and there currently are people there, so fair play on getting 50% of the name correct.

Honestly, I’d much rather have a marxist president than that dictator wannabe whose four years tenure caused so much damage that the country will likely never fully recover.

Speaking of damage, I wonder if any Palestinians from Ohio heckled him on his campaign stop there, on account of his deregulations contributing to the incident.

[USA Today elections results site](https://www.usatoday.com/elections/results/race/2020-11-03-presidential-OH-0/) tells me their county went 71.7% for Tan the Conman. So, yeah, probably not many jeered the clown.
