All of it. Rest in hell, Kissinger:

Opinion piece in local paper by non-drinker recalled how he had been cajoled to drink Malort at a party once. He said “It tasted like regret”.

 

That should be their official Motto.

 

That's letting the taste off easy.

In its earlier days, FEW made their own Malort, that Jeppson's insisted they not call Malort. Paul covered up where the label said Malort with a black marker, while the label also read "Anguish and Regret".

That's marketing.

Doritos unveils nacho cheese-flavored booze that costs $65 a bottle
This is the first spirit to match the flavor profile of Doritos product

 

Why?
We really do not need or want this.
This world is just horrible.

 

Bring on climate change.

 

Yep that sounds disgusting. Also some malort sounds good tonight. Am I having a stroke?

 

and one of these. Man I gotta stop wasting money at this “herbal healing” store

 

I are 4 amanita edibles. With 30mg thc/cbd each as well. I didn’t know why to expect but I like it a lot. It’s the Santa Claus mushroom fyi

 

Yes, you are

 

Ya know Santa's outfit, and whole vibe, traces back to magic mushrooms.

Allegedly.

 

Got a new bag of coffee:

 

Anyone in Chicagoland know if there was any updates announced on Metropolitan Brewing? I know they had a dispute with the landlord that could put them out of business. I try to stop there on my annual trip for a Fire game. I like their Kolsch

 

He gone.

That makes me sad. I've done Half Acre and Revolution but if you or anyone has any other recs I will gladly give them a try next year

 

"Enjoying" a few Stag at a dive bay in St. Louis.




Doesn't even need a name...just "beer."

 

A stack of stags

My Zog, my nephew (who lives in St. Louis and with whom we have been drinking) is 32.
I'm old...
but he is older than I was when he was born, by a long shot.
That makes me feel slightly less old.

 

Somehow I ended up on the early pages of this thread. How'd this work out Jiggly?

 

I discovered anime and then things just kept getting worse.

 

Now we just need malort photoshopped into that picture.

 

Made friends with the rosatis manager. He hooked me up.

 

A flashback my burrito:

 

El Famous Burrito in Summit used to serve Green River. I love the combo.

 

Green River is pretty commonly available up my way.

Jolly Good is the local soda around here, but is getting difficult to find.
