Random Beer Thoughts

[arren]

thank god facebook definitely cant track name changes or changes in type of group. they definitely have no way of doing that so all these groups should totally be fine

The best part is the ones going to Secret...because Facebook totally doesn't know how to go around their own platform

EDIT:

You forgot that changing groups to "secret" saves them too. Facebook can't get around that either

Ah, ******* stole my bit!

Flavor is spelled wrong too. That should probably be fixed as well.

That line of marketing a beer is just horrible. It's known, but shouldn't be spoken.

"So much spicy flavour it'll hurt your mum's arse and send you to gaol"

 

[drgarage1]

Doing some copy editing for a beer festival. I'm tempted to just delete this:

"American style Wheat Beer which has been infused with flavour packed raspberries and stealthy ring-stinging Jalapeños. Very easy drinking. (But put the toilet paper in the fridge)"

I don't get the obsession with spicy products and talking about *****. Telling me that it'll make my poop hurt and just general associations with poop is a horrible way to sell me your product.

(lol yeah brown note I know)

Raspberry Jalapeno? You guys were part of the british empire fairly recently, weren't you?

Still are.

Still are.

I'm laughing pretty hard at this Facebook fiasco. People are talking about 'purging' members because they think that the police are in groups.

All common, no wealth down here!

But yeah whatever it is. Still a union jack on the flag, the queen is technically in charge etc.

They probably should, given the amount of shatter and dabs shown off in Sour and Barrel-Aged Beer Enthusiasts...

 

[FTowne1]

Talkbeer might get a surge of new users...

I sure hope not. At least not Facebook people.

Thinking of blocking anyone who has a Facebook account.

Kind of Srs, but going to check if that account I made in 2004(?) ever got any friend requests, I last checked in 2004.

Given that Berkshire was infected when I got it, who knows what's in that bottle now.

Apparently I send a drunk message to an old University mate in Aug 2007. I just replyed to him. Funny.

So...no friend requests?

I realized when I was folding some towels last night, that they were the ones that Dbijnagte wrapped bottles in in a box he sent me in the MAW BIF a year or two ago.

They don't match any of the schemes, so they're utility towels and have gone into primary use now that we've got a baby who prefers to splash more water out of the tub than could possibly have started in it.

The beers are long since gone, but part of the contents of the box remains. Probably the most "value" I've derived from a trade box has come from the continued utilization of some packing materials.

Kind of made me think about how silly the whole trading part of this hobby is with, equity and all that horseshit.

Our friend used to trade a guy in Canada for lambic. He packed bottles in old, holy cowichan sweaters. We still wear them. Or would if stxSS07 ever returned the football sweater. The curling sweater gets worn to curling turnaments now.

Thanks for not being the guy who replied all to the Garagiste Owners email. I guess you aren't THAT afraid of technology.

Not afraid of technology. Actually, I'm quite knowledgeable with electronics. I have a magnificent tv and constantly bitch about "streaming" quality of Netflix.

I hate people.

I woulda been #1, because I almost always "reply all" at work and so that's bled into my real life. I don't use email that much for personal stuff now that texting is so ubiquitous.

I was seconds away from pressing "send" when I realized "wait wait these are beer people there's a slight possibility that they didn't bcc everyone," checked, confirmed, and switched to "reply."

So we are the 3 people in the world who dont use Facebook. Nice

So we are the 3 people in the world who dont use Facebook. Nice

A while ago, when Facebook was really popular, one of my friends started a FB group called "One Million Strong and Counting: People Who Want (capnmike) to join Facebook."

I think there were 10-12 people in that group at best.

Well, I now have my first broken fedex package, and it was beers I was trusteeing for someone. Not really any replaceable beers in that box.
