**** that’s beautiful.

If the night ends without your bottle being cracked, tough luck. You don't get to take your bottle home. You've donated it to the host. Don't ever mention the bottle again.

You see this **** Sam Fu ? That bottle of Floue Floue is mine. Don’t ever mention it either ya biiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiitch.

I may just go troll him on FB, just because

"6. Don't ask why people are at the bottle share, even if you're the host."

******* what?

As for that list, this guy is obviously an incel, right? The sneery attitude and butting into **** that isn't even in his own state reeks of it.

He comes off to me as someone that a girl knows she can get a free meal off of.

There is a reason.

The sheriff always gets shot, but not the deputy.

Glad I revisited that article to see your comment. I generally avoid the comment section on WW. Even worse of a cesspool than this place.

Wasn't sure I would be able to figure out what comment was his.

Then it was suddenly obvious.

22. Always bring a Rogue Voodoo Donut bottle

I'm assuming the guy who brought the Rogue bottle is this one:

10. If the soft-spoken man next to you brings a really rare bottle of beer, compliment him on the bottle. This is why he came.

LOL - I like how the picture at the top of the article is almost all beers nobody would be stoked to drink if someone brought them to a share.

That's pretty spectacular. I like how it starts with pretty reasonable, "don't be a dick, relax it's just beer" stuff then quickly veers off into nutball territory. The last thing I want is people leaving their goddamned beer at my house!

There are some good beers in there, but the funniest thing to me is that picture totally goes against his very first rule:

This will not be something you bought at the grocery store on the way over.

Literally every one of those beers are ones that you would pick up from the grocery store on the way over to a share.

Andy, **** you for reminding me of this article.

I mean that article is obviously trying to be tongue in cheek.

Nah, it's not. That dude is a serious idiot. He wrote garbage **** all the time.

It could be, but it feels like it would get more absurd than it does if that were the case. Or it's really, really well done and perfectly nailed the line between sincerity/obvious satire, which seems pretty unlikely.

Yeah I mean I didn't say he did a good job but I'm pretty sure that's where he was trying to go with it.

I would agree with you, but after reading the comments on that brewery's wall, along with his unwillingness to budge, makes me think he wrote that list sincerely. Certainly was a strange hill for him to die on.

12. Don't move aggressively toward the pourer while the beer is being poured. Be Zen, it will come to you. Unless it doesn't.

You guys ever had this happen?

Did you see the crowd mob Raf at MBCC?

Of one the most sad and pathetic things I've ever seen in my entire life.

I get it but it reads like an incel attempting to bite Maddox's style for beer.

Now he's just really gosh darn concerned with the future of Texas craft beer and ending the restrictive laws (that he was just saying should be invoked) and also if you assume everything transpired just like it did in his head (even if you were actually there) then you'd see things his way

Yeah, it’s fair to say I’m being an armchair quarterback. However, I think you can see from their responses throughout the thread that they were being irresponsible, lacked control of their premises, and we’re being defiant when challenged about that. You’re putting yourself in their shoes, and I would humbly suggest that if you are an experienced professional bartender this would not be the situation you would ever find yourself in. My guess is that if you would been there and saw management fail to control this situation you probably would’ve walked after the shift so as not to risk losing your card... A lot of people in Texas are working really hard to change the restrictive laws on craft breweries there. This post, which they created and fed, has the potential to undo a lot of those efforts if state lawmakers become aware that this sort of thing is happening in Texas craft breweries, confirming all of the worst nightmare scenarios that opponents dream up.

So apparently per a dontdrinkbeer post today, the new thing to do in booze razzle groups is offer the various spots at different prices, based on whether or not the numbers are "more likely to hit". As a mathematician, that is absolutely ******* hilarious, one of the most impressively stupid iterations of the gambler's fallacy that I've seen.

Maybe they're, like, rolling multiple dice? But yeah if you're just using a RNG to get a number from 1-N that's amazingly dumb.

But, Julian, 5 is my lucky number, so statistically, there is a much higher chance that it will randomly be drawn.
