I hate snobs of all kinds but have a special place of distain for beer snobs in my heart.
Was listening to the ticket (dallas radio sports station) and there was a very rare beer talk segment this morning, and after the discussion they take some calls. Well 2nd or 3rd caller calls in and starts off with "you should watch a documentary called Beer wars and you'll never drink big companies stuff again. They're bullies".
I'm going to try not to make too many references to that hack job of a documentary that makes bold ridiculous claims such as big beer companies "force consumers to use their products" b/c of their marketing practices. Yeah that’s it, Bud has figured out how make me drink there beer because they advertise during the superbowl. I also only eat doritoes b/c of that too and not because I like them.
I digress, my point is he started out saying watch this movie and you'll never drink there beer again. Why can't people think for themselves? Why couldn't he come up with a single argument of his own design?
When people tell me to watch this or watch that to prove a point- it's usually a red flag to me that they are not knowledgeable themselves enough about something to form their own opinions. You might as well be saying "I'm too dumb to know, watch this".
