If you want to get Blitzed, may I suggest whiskey (neat or on the rocks, no mixers). It gets the job done, tastes good, and doesn't require constant trips to the bathroom.


Its all really in the timing. Beer has the advantage of not requiring mixing (and when you mix drinks, the proper ratio generally creates a beverage as fluid intense as beer), being of low enough ABV to stretch your imbibing experience over a longer period of time, and largely prevents you from drinking more than you intend to (it gets really easy to over-pour later in the day/night).

Getting wasted is a science not to be underestimated.

That's why you drink an ice-cold screwdriver instead.

My ex bought me one of those a year or so ago, maybe less, it was alright. Not that it matters of course, she only bought it because of the name.

That said, I'm not one to judge, I don't drink beer very often, and generally only if someone else buys it, or if I'm eating.

Please tell me you're wearing him as a shirt. Wearing him as pants would just be creepy levels of unfortunate.

It is the trend towards flashy menswear taken to its logical conclusion.





I like me some flashy menswear, but its over the top even by by my standards, which are more along these lines.

I just hate any bastard who only drinks their girly flavored beers.
A real man just asks for a cold beer and shuts the feth up.

Maybe you hang out with immature women. Maybe you're attracted to immature women because you think they'll let you shpadoink them.

Amusing, but I can't fault a person for disliking gakky beers (read: pretty much all of them, beer in general is nasty tasting)...

We Great Old Ones can recall a time when the grunge kids would wear long sleeved flannel shirts over long underwear regardless of the heat index.


Yep. In fact 90s grunge hipsters are remarkably similar to 11's hipsters. Thats probably where the fashion industrial complex got the idea.

Isn't Shiner from Texas? I'd hope you'd always get it freshest and cheapest Frazz. I always liked the Shriner Black. You're hard pressed to find it anywhere around here though.

Heh, hawaiian tees.

Silk hawaiian tees half-buttoned is basically sleazewear.

Indeed. I think Ziegenboch is as well but not positive at all on that one.
