Who wants to buy me a nice extract kit for christmas?

[BenVanned]

I'de love to have a holli-brew-day but money is so tight this time of year. Its sad really.

 

[mikeysab]

Oh boy, is this the new trend on HBT, shameless begging for ingredients? Dude, check the Pay it Forward thread when it starts, maybe you'll get lucky

 

[IrregularPulse]

You poor thing. You can't afford brewing ingredients. I feel so bad. Let me go grab that money I set aside to feed homeless children, you're in much worse shape.

 

[Beezy]

You are screwed!

 

[Homercidal]

In times of want, it's good to know that Natty Ice is still affordable.

 

[mikeysab]

You are screwed!

Now thats some funny stuff right there. Can't wait to see how this one plays out.

 

[Zamial]

BYOI

kthxbye

EDIT: Did you know that just about every major city has a plasma donation center? They take your plasma x2 a week and give you about $30. I can make a LOT of beer for $30... just saying.

 

[HopSong]

While I feel the pain for those who are truly in need.. If you are connected.. dump the smart phone.. or scale back on cable/satellite.. There's extra beer money.. Choices, choices, choices....

 

[g-star]

I hope this dude is kidding.

BYOI

Then the plus side is you won't need as much beer to drink after donating.

I had to donate 2x a week when I first enlisted. I was 22 and had too much debt to make ends meet, but wasn't allowed to get a second job until finished with upgrade training. Nothing like putting in a 12 hr day out on the hot flightline in AZ just to get off work and drive across town to sit in a chair with a needle in your arm for an hour just to pay bills.

 

[Homercidal]

Man I wish I lived near a major city.

Donating plasma = free beer

 

[mikeysab]

I'm lookin to pick up a 42 inch lcd on black friday for 200 bucks. Then i'll donate my 37 inch plasma.

 

[509inc]

I feel for you. I only have enough stuff on hand to brew four 5gal batches.

If I wasn't so lazy I'd fill a flat rate box full of 2 row and an once of hops for you.

Dibs I'll even pay shipping. What can I say, I'm a giver.

 

[mikeysab]

I was gonna donate one of the 5 batches of ingrediwnts on hand too but he's looking for an extract kit.

I missed that part. Extract is too expensive to just give away. He is SOL.

 

[Cpt_Kirks]

Occupy HBT?

Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme.

Uh, no.

:rockin:

Gimme, gimme, gimme, gimme.

Uh, no.

:rockin:

Yeah. Why should us well stocked 1% with our large grain bills have to give to the 99%.

 

[uncommonsense]

Sell your kettle

 

[motleybrews]

Occupy All-Grain!

Research BIAB and go buy the ingredients. Won't set you back much from my understanding.

My all grain batches have been just a hair over $20/batch at the LHBS.

 

[HopSong]

Two bits this is a troll.. sitting back laughing at what he started

 

[mikeysab]

Who cares, its funny

 

[Monkey55]

Wow. I can't believe someone actually asked for a hand-out for brewing ingredients.

Even though I had to cut back on my "extra" stuff, yesterday I donated food to people in need.

*Shaking My Head*

E

 

[mikeysab]

So no volunteers to send this guy a kit?

 

[sudsmcgee]

I'll send him semen in a container that he can donate if he wishes.

 

[BenVanned]

Oh ****. I lit a fire in the well here. Just kidding guys.

 

[wailingguitar]

Geez... did you guys really think he was serious? Time for a collective "lighten up Francis!"

 

[mikeysab]

Lighten up? You mean lighten up more? This was a pretty lightened up thread. I doubt he wouldn't really accept a free extract kit though. Threw out a feeler to see how people would respond. Figured "hey, I could always say I was kidding".

 

[Steelers77]

Good laughs after a IIPA and an Imperial porter! Thanks and Happy Thanksgiving.

 

[mikeysab]

Funny that you guys are from the same town and joined a month apart. So who called who to say "Dude, it didnt work, lets say it was a joke"? And and which one is stuffing the others turkey tomorrow?

 

[wailingguitar]

LOL Utter coincidence, never knew him before HBT

 

[mikeysab]

Lol is right, you guys got me rolling over here. I even offered your buddy a bunch of stuff in the other thread. We're all down for a good laugh, and you guys gave us material for one. Even if your begging didn't quite work out for you. (actually, it did, since I offered you ingredients to make a beer)
