    He tweets about his burger and fries at Newark Airport costing $78… The restaurant comes back and reveals that $60 of his $78 tab was whiskey…

        Maybe the most sanctimonious human being I am familiar with. He pegged it, and I’m not sure how he could be more sanctimonious. He talked to Sam Harris recently. They tongued one another’s balls for an hour or so.

        Education is extremely important.

          So … the cost of burger and fries is not that bad and therefore the American economy is fine? Hooray Bidenomics!

            I’ve noticed how fucking expensive those restaurants at Newark are. A 9oz glass of not great wine is $26. And yeah, I order a second before a long haul flight.

            I feel your pain, Mr Brooks.

            Thank you for your attention to this matter.

              Can you BYOB on a flight?

              The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                  @Mik said in David Brooks stepped in it:

                  I have, but you are not supposed to.

                  So, this won't do.
