Why can't I wake up with the gin already in me? (BOOZE)

[cold before sunrise]

the worst thing about putting off my visit to the storm brewhouse is the 12-year aged sour beer that made it famous (he later added black currants and went on to win more accolades) has now sold out so i'll never actually be able to try it. part of the appeal of small batch brewing is it's limited availability but i'm a little heartbroken about sleeping on that.

I am still drunk.

Y'all seen this troll attempt? Why It's OK To Hate Fancy Beer

Keep on grunting, Tim Allen

It's especially funny 'cause, you know, it's not like you have to have an incredibly sophisticated palate or much experience or knowledge to suss out that your average microbrew tastes better than a Bud Light. I mean, it just does.

I like cheap crappy beer as much as the next guy, but come on.

Laaaaaame.

Commercials, man... Time was, you could look up to commercials, learn how to be a man. Even a magazine writer can feel like a lineman with the right marketing.

Remember the good old days, when Billy Dee Williams told us what beer to drink and couldn't marry a white woman?

[Ignatius]

And Europeans were still gay?

Anyway, because of that article I discovered multiple websites catering to specifically to linemen with AWESOME t-shirts.

My grandpa was a lineman.

On the one hand, the hype around Stitzel-Weller bourbon is wholly disproportionate and almost laughable.  On the other, it IS good fucking bourbon and the remaining supplies will be depleted within the decade.  What's a boy to do?

Picked up the second-to-last bottle of Redbreast at my favorite bottle shop yesterday. That and some Guinness should be enough for the little St. Patrick's Day gathering we're planning for Saturday.

Make sure the house smells like farts and burning peat and you're in.

Getting someone 'up the pole' is South African slang for getting someone pregnant. So, comes down to the same meaning.

I took this photo a few years ago on a jog. World's first phototropic utility pole!



Or more OT: a soused utility pole walking home?

Fucking Protestants

[Chet]

i agree with the sentiment

but apparently the idea that bushmills is a protestant whiskey and jameson's catholic is a myth.

Last time I was in NYC those Bushmills ads were all over the place.  Most of them were actually great.  The Bon Iver one is the first to make me want to "hang" just long enough to punch all of them.
