Don't Drink Beer

[cosmicevan]

where do you find so much free time? between the beers, the blogs, the video games, the aliases...do you have a free time tree growing in your yard or something?

i am a product of excesses in every way, positive and negative. I sleep very little and then sleep way too much.

The Aristotelian Golden Mean prescribes balance and moderation in all things, but this is also true of moderation. Therefore, I take moderation in moderation, albeit excessively. I am not exceptional at any one thing and dabble in enough puddles to seem erudite in a variety of subjects but lacking any real depth in any discipline.

Just enough to get the tip wet.

what's the drunkest you've ever been?

wow, really well stated and i subscribe to that...excess in every way except moderation...take moderation in moderation.

so srs...do you use different browsers or do you just sign in and out all day long. same passwords? ever mix up who you are and accidentally post as the wrong person?

This doesn't even involve craft beer.

12/31/10, the night before California banned caffeine 4loko, I brought a fully horizontal to this civilized party, all 8 flavors and Holiday Camo. No one would touch it and just took photos and laughed at it. I explained that come tomorrow, this would be contraband. I opened every flavor and slowly people started getting wet. Even the DD's wanted a lil hit, i dont know if it can be described as the drunkest I have ever been, but it was the most completely out of control I have been to date. I had probably 3-4 cans overall. Usually a blackout is forayed into forgotten Taco Bell and a headache. This parlayed into completely auto-activity. I came to, still awake, at 8am, feeling completely dry insdie, still drunk having not slept.

I "woke up" playing Xbox, my characters power leveled in Fallout 3, but it was more a Pinnochio transubstantiation, like gaining sentience from being complete automata. I had beaten large sections of the story mode with no knowledge of what had happened. It made the rest of the game less satisfying, and I feel that is the real caution to this tale.

Heresay and conjecture. The evidence is completely circumstantial. We would be happy to try this case when you have done your homework.

When are the Don't Drink Beer shirts going to be available? Maybe these should be a collaboration project with Talkbeer. I like the "no one gives a **** what breweries you have visited" idea for the back. I think "Disrespect Beer" would also be good for a shirt.

Circumsizal evidence is still admissible

Make 20. Wait for TBers to start trading loons for them. Then print 500 more, sell for $$$.

Then flip all that cheddar for one ancient beer that you're going to eviscerate in a review.

... profit?

I wish my out of control **** shows resulted in a regrettable video game Marathon instead of crippling shame and narrow escapes from incarceration.

Four loko is both to blame, and should be given credit, for almost every drunken foray of mine since 2010. I don't know why, but pounding a pre-ban after a tasting is STILL something I cannot resist.


So, what's your favorite flavor?? Fresh I was a blue raz man, but that fruit punch is still kicking ass all these years later. Meanwhile blue raz looks and tastes a lot like window cleaner now. And dat Orange blend is straight toxic these days.

ha! glad it's not a Panamera. that would be completely untenable.

some dude on my block has a GT3 and it gives me the jealous feels. I don't even have to see it, just hear it.

Requesting pics of your own sick whip?

Pretty gauche IMO

Do you read Big Ghost? I'd been reading him for some time before I found you a couple years ago and definitely catching the same feels from both writers.

http://bigghostlimited.com/ though his twitter is where it's at.

I had never heard of him until after about 18 months into DDB, people also pointed me to Thus Spoke the Gramaphone, Thug Kitchen, and other sites with a similar narrative. Good stuff and it's fun to see other sites out there putting a spin on traditional reviews and commentary, even if it makes DDB seems pedestrian by contrast.

Is the baconator an hommage to maddox.xmission.com?

did Maddox do something with a Baconator?

The baconator is just an absurd sandwich and it sounded incredibly oily, reading the initial reviews people had precum all on their tips writing about things that usually would be putrid like "ah yeah i saw that rainbow sheen of oil, nice coconut oils on the top, chunks of white smegma on the rim, now you know its legit coconut, mmm you can taste the greasy finish, 5/5 100 world class FT: Proprietors, also"

so I wanted to take something even oilier, grease and bacon and cheese to make it even more imperial, add those lipid tones to boost the greasy mouthfeel. my bottle of prop also had white chunks in the cab and rim, it was this messy oiliness that people loved so I just took it to an absurd conclusion.

It had nothing to do with Maddox, or epic meal time, or whatever else.
