Politics Drunk Thread 2012 - Page 25 - Politics and Economics

We always liked cooking together when we lived in the same city. Now that we're far, we just agree on something to make, we each make it with our laptops propped on the kitchen counter, and that way we can chat as things cook and then "have dinner together" as best we can.

Wow.

Things like this are probably why you do better with the long term relationship than me.

Tonight I will be exploring the brave new world of high ABV, low-calorie beer! Not gonna start drinking for a couple hours, but figured I should get the scatter plot up while I'm still able.

You drink weird **** dude.

Me I'm drinking Southern Screwdrivers.

That's pure GA moonshine mixed with Simply Orange for the uninformed.

Drinking it by the glass.

I endure these tribulations so you don't have to.

I could definitely go for a jug of shine, tho.

I made a purchase or two relevant to shine making during my vacation.

TR with pics to follow.

Cliffs: yes, you can purchase your own still online.

Making shine is legal as long as you stay under a certain limit isn't it?

As I understand it, there's no real "limit" you just can't sell it.

As long as I'm just making it and gifting/drinking it, I'm fine AFAIK

Wow, this is terrible beer. I was fully expecting it to not be good, but it also manages to taste... wrong. Like if there was an artificially flavored beer jellybean, it would taste like this.

As vile as it is, Swill Platinum does go down fast. I've already killed half the six pack. Gonna be an early night. And yeah, I'm feeling that 6% ABV.

I think this beer has good sales potential in certain college markets.

I'm not sure which is worse - having your first 2+2 post be in the drunk thread, or creating a gimmick for the drunk thread.

Creasy: Do you think God'll forgive us for what we've done here?
Rayburn: No.

Five down, 1 to go. I'm gonna do this thing all the wya.

Feelin' pretty wrecked. I don't weigh much, That'd a lot of alcohol for a smal guy in less than 2 hours.

btw, I made a scatter plot. For the drunk thread. Who else has that sort of dedication? Sure, you might have had some sort of vague idea about alcohol content and calories, but has any=body else made a graph for you? I bet not.

Bud Light Platinum is pretty good imo, especially for a 6% beer.

You know what I'd enjoy? I'd like to extend an open invitation to MissileDog to come in here one night, have some brews and discuss the upcoming Baseball season.

If you read this MD, stop by and have a beer with us sometime!
