"Applebee's Will Save Us With $1 Long Island Iced Teas
You know, I feel like I say this often here on this dumb weekly news round-up, but: Golly, it's been a week hasn't it? The procession of men who have used their position in life to sexually exploit, harass and exclude women grows longer and longer. A war criminal killed himself in the courtroom with poison as he was sentenced to 20 years in prison. A tax bill in the senate threatens to undermine the foundations of American society. And, as the year comes to a close, it's hard to see any of this getting better in the next.
Late is the hour of our doom, and yet in the final moments a savior appears: Starting in December Applebee's will offer $1 Long Island Iced Teas. What better antidote to our collective malaise that an unholy combination of vodka, gin, rum, tequila, triple sec, sour mix and a splash of coke. All to be had for a single dollar.
Corporations and the wealthy wish to expand their wealth at the expense of the middle class. But at least Applebee's is willing to placate the masses at a price that cannot be beat. And we will oblige them."
