After I finally got up off the floor from laughing I decided this should be posted here.

I just had a great idea. In the bottom left below the avatar, there is an "alert" icon to report a post to the mods if it doesn't belong on the site. We should see if the admin will add another button that we can use to report infection/Mr. Beer posts directly to Revvy.
 
Hahaha...wait, really? I have 73 beagles in the basement on giant hamster wheels generating electricity for a custom burner in my garage, so really, I am only out a few dead beagles...which, by the way, only motivate the working beagles even more. It actually works out to net positive in terms of resource consumption.

The bacteria can just lay in wait and bide its time. I just read a thread somewhere on here where a guys barley wine was good for 3 years and then developed a gusher infection.
Now I am picturing a little lactobacillus dressed up in commando gear hiding behind a ridge of yeast carcasses on the bottom of a bottle. Watching, careful monitoring the deliciousness of the barleywine, waiting until the peak of flavorful glory and BOOM, time to get bacteria sex on...;)

This one got me... regarding neighbors calling the fuzz while you are brewing.

I have not had a cop-stop yet. But I have had a neighbor fill my mailbox with pamphlets on how bad deep fried turkey is for you. After talking to a few neighbors, the prevailing theory is that I eat 1-2 deep fried turkeys per week.
 
I thought this was classic, and made a good point

Thinking your own beer is great is like not minding the smell of your own farts. Getting other people to purchase your beer is like having the general public not mind the smell of your farts.

I would contend that it is fairly challenging to get others to enjoy your farts.

Everyone on the internet benches 300, makes better beer than any commercial brewery, has well behaved children, etc. Making a salable product is a whole different ball game than convincing yourself that you make a product that would be salable.
