My great aunt told me a bloody mary was a Budweiser mixed with tomato juice, which she drank all the time. I thought this was accurate until my 20s, when I realized everything I knew was a lie.

That's a thing, beer with tomato juice and spices. It's what you would call a michelada, although those will often have clam juice in them as well.

It is not, under any circumstances, a bloody mary though.
Zima as well as Bartles and the other geriatrics's swill when I was there as well
Ahhh, Zima. I think I only ever drank 2 or 3 of those. I was more interested in whatever beer somebody was able to get an older brother to buy, since we couldn't be picky. After losing a couple of epic battles to a guy named Jose I swore off tequila forever. Those were the days.
Yo Dick Yuengling is virulently anti-union, don't drink that swill!
If someone's got it at a party, I'll drink it. But I don't buy it for myself anymore, mostly for politics and somewhat for having lost its appeal when it came into New England.
10 years ago, I was running over to New York state (then a few miles away) all the time to go get it
Same deal here - around Akron people always used to pick up a few cases if they happened to be in Pennsylvania, sometimes even made special trips. We were excited when they finally started distributing it here but it's lost its luster now for me, though it definitely still sells well here. That's a bummer about Dick, cause I thought Yuengling was kind of a neat old company.
I've been living in the same area of Bushwick for about 5 years now; and I used to hit up this bodega all the way up the street (like 10 minutes up) for craft beers. The owner of that one expanded down to a spot 3 years back that's literally down the street (love the main dude, awesome Dominican American owner of like 3 spots apparently). I hit him up every day basically, or close enough..
Just got a fantastic huge avocado for $1.14 to top off a couple buys in the store on a 10. #LoyaltyLifeHacks #fuckyes
BTW: I say that because, I remember vividly the first time 'Clint Eastwood' hit the Box. and I feel ancient right now
I was in 7th grade when Gorillaz came about. A friend and I would lock ourselves in her room and blast that first album over and over and over.
Oh, how we would wait for the videos to load on her dial-up internet connection or wait with our fingers on the record button of the VCR to record the videos during TRL or some other MTV show that still played music videos.
Random? I missed this two weeks ago. I think the electrical impulses to transmit sour seems easy enough. But it's gotta be near impossible to transmit electronic impulses of complicated tastes. If they ever figure that shit out, you could try almost any virtually transmitted taste or try anything before you bought it to see if it's a flavor profile or something you want to eat or drink.

This is really stupid (usually all of these videos are). Unless you literally didn't listen to the radio or watch VH1 as a kid you should know who Gorillaz are. Like you must not have paid attention to music until you were 16 to really not be familiar with them. Feel Good Inc was played regularly on pop stations, their music videos were constantly on tv, and I have a distinct memory of a kid bringing Demon Days to school and all of us begging the gym teacher to play it when I was in elementary school. I just don't believe these videos are very authentic.
I'm wildly proud of myself right now for some trolling efforts I pulled yesterday and I just need to share it.
everyone at school is becoming fucking psychotic as we start ramping up to recruiter/job hunt season and finish our portfolio sites. and I just found out people are hacking the system to look at & monitor people's sites while they're 'under construction'. ie typing myname.com/work instead of just myname.com to bypass the temporary home page.
so I looked at my site analytics. I've been averaging 30 people per month looking at my site since december. and it's likely even higher because half of the site visits are from VCU's couple of IP addresses. and close to 1/3 of those hits were on my pages beyond my 'coming soon' page, meaning they were cheating their way in to watch my progress as I work on it. and, of course, there were a handful of (non-VCU) IPs showing up almost every day, sometimes multiple times a day.
so I looked up one of the recurring IP addresses (they were *all* from richmond btw), got its latitude/longitude points, and screenshot the google maps of that point. made 2 fake pages of /work /about and used that screen shot as the background of the pages and wrote "HEY IP ADDRESS xxxxxxxxxx!!!!! Have some patience!"
last night the IP address I called out looked at my site again. and, of course, found their way onto my new myname.com/work page.

Didn't watch the video, did you? With the exception of one guy who clearly recognized them but couldn't put his finger on the name of the band, every other kid in the video knew who they were from like the first song without being told.

Ya got me. I just completely assumed based off what the video looked like. I didn't want to put myself through the torture of actually watching people my age who don't know who Gorillaz are.
17 years later and I'm still confused by the casting of a dude well over 40 as the hot shot bad guy quarterback in the replacements
a) but he wasn't the hotshot... he was the replacement. b) Keanu was 35 - so younger than Tom Brady, Eli Manning, and a buncha other sportsballers I couldn't be bothered to look up. c) is it any worse than old man Sean Connery as James Bond in Never Say Never Again?
We have 2 nesting boxes that each kid made as a project in Kindergarten. Surprisingly they get used every year, but never by bluebirds yet... Had some bluebird eggs earlier this year, but some other bird threw them out and pecked them to death. We cleared out the nesting box, and they rebuilt... and now they have 4 eggs. Here's a pic of freshly hatched chickadees in one box, and 4 Eastern Bluebird eggs in another. I'm pretty excited to see the bluebirds when they hatch. They are gorgeous when they have feathers.
Also, bluebirds make much better nests than chickadees.
Ive lived in New York all my life, where the eastern bluebird is our state bird, and have NEVER seen one. When I was a little kid, I just assumed blue jays were bluebirds.

I haven't seen them much here in SC either. Both kids' classes all made these boxes a few years back as some kind of "help the bluebird population" thing. My kids are in 3rd and 4th grade and this is the first time we've seen a bluebird show interest in one.

Don't sweat it too much, Siggy.
I was talking about the Eddie Martel character who was played by a then mid 40's aged Brett Cullen.
1. I still love buying smirnoff ice and hiding it during big parties/weekend getaways. or people's birthdays. we iced our friend jerry 11 times on his birthday last month. hahaha
Yeah, see when we were young, it was just an average drink. You picked up a pack of Smirnoff Ice like you would pick up any beer. It wasn't yet a gag game. People actually drank them on the reg because they wanted to and not because someone tricked them into it. By the time icing was a thing, I was already #old.
Welcome back Bonz, but I do not find it strange that your presence being requested in the Orgy thread and then you showing up, like it was the quacking Bonzai Bat Signal.

Bonz, if you're old, I'm #oldasdirt
Age ain't nothin' but a numba! I don't really consider myself old. I have no idea what I consider old. 547? According to wiki, icing became a thing in 2010, so I was 25 or so. Young, just not young enough to pick up on the fad! I thought we were around the same age, though?
