Yeah most of those issues can be solved by presenting the letter. In fact they've probably been given an out to get any bad review deleted on that basis.

I'm confused, are you saying you don't think buttcoiners would try something like this? Because buttcoiners would totally try something like this (and have).

Yeahhhh all of those threats seem really stupid to put down into a printed out flyer, even for an "anonymous" group.

That's the guy at every party who brings a sixer of a non-super cheap beer and proceeds to talk to everyone about how he's super into beer while he nurses a single beer over the course of the entire party. Also I like how he had to spell out Smithwick's in a way so everyone knew he was pronouncing it the correct way.

This is my dad. I've had to sip all kinds of nasty "good" beer since he started getting into it like five years ago. Now my mom's getting that way about whiskey.

Well, that and imagining the poor woman getting ham-handedly pestered by some fedora about her booze choices. This one sounds like it happened, it just didn't happen the way the writer thinks it did.

To be fair I've had that situation happen except I was both the girl and the random guy who speaks for her in that story (which is to say I spoke for myself instead of having some dude fight for me randomly), and also I still didn't like beer in the end. This reads like the guy pestered someone into drinking something they didn't like and they confirmed to him they didn't like it, so he went home and wrote this post about what SHOULD have happened.

It's very hard for some people to accept that I don't like beer and I prefer wine or hard liquor. Do people get this obsessive and pushy about other drinks? Like are there people passing out Mexican Cokes at parties insisting that non-soda drinkers just "haven't had the right soda yet"?

I was like this until my friend had me try a sweet Belgian ale called Tripel Karmeliet and another that I don't remember the name of. vv Granted, they're two beers in a million, but if someone wants to me to try something at no cost on my part, I won't say no.

Really I think for most people that like beer, and drink more than one kind of beer, the "first beer I had" and "first beer I liked" stories are very different ones. This is STDH not because it's an unusual sort of event, but because it's so stilted and unnatural. Like a commercial, yeah.

A friend of mine microbrews. He's one of the best chefs I've ever met and the only thing he takes more pride in than his cooking is his brewing. He's skilled enough that he's opened his own, successful brewery. I have tried the beer of this man, and beer sucks. Bring it, you pushy rear end in a top hat.

Tunicate posted:["lite beer isn't real beer" argument] This exact argument has happened in Goons with Spoons, along with: "Do you put beans in chili?" "Is a hamburger a sandwich?" "What is the correct hot dog condiment?" But even more aggressive and heated. It's entirely possible that it happened IRL too. A lot of people who have super-strong DEBATE ME opinions on certain foodstuffs are perfectly normal otherwise. It's strange how common that is. edit: yeah the ending didn't happen, but the awkward argument at a relaxed party totally did happen. WITCHCRAFT has a new favorite as of 08:01 on Jun 18, 2014 |

Some people have this weird belief that being super smug about seemingly unimportant preferences in their food and/or daily activities. Like whether their toilet paper goes under/over, or what kind of beans they put on their burrito at chipolte or whether they put ketchup on their burger (which is wrong, ketchup is an awful condiment reserved at best for french fries. They think expressing their opinions on minor unimportances as if it were abject fact and not a minor opinion is somehow endearing.

How do you confuse clear liquor with water? If s/he drank enough to get drunk, she should have recognized the smell, if not the taste, of alchohol.

Thanks for the explanation, I was wondering why that one was supposed to be STDH.

Even as a little kid when one my dad's jerk friends thought it would be funny to switch my water glass with vodka, I knew that wasn't water as soon as it passed my lips.

Didn't say he swallowed the whole thing, but he got some down his esophagus. "Took a big swig" might have been a better phrase.

It says "Irish Ale" on the loving bottle. And I've never met a beer nerd who'd describe a beer as "fairly basic" unless it was boring poo poo.

Yeah, hopefully it'd irritate him so bad he'd leave you alone after that. Wishful thinking maybe, but if I take a beer to placate him it's going down the sink the second he looks away.
