“Ounce for ounce, bite for bite… BETTER THAN APPLES.” Prunes have got it tough, man. I think you need to have some sort of advanced degree in marketing to pur a positive spin on something that looks like a bucket of demon hearts. When you read the little fine-print explanation, they mean”better” in that it’s [...]
“Hey, man, I wanna talk to you. Why would you say that about my wife?” In a situation like this it was best to go on the offense. “Thing is, point blank, your wife looks pregnant and I feel it’s my responsibility as a bartender to not serve anyone who is. It’s not an easy [...]

My new job is starting Monday. We’ll see if that increases or decreaes the frequency of my blog posts. Pure fucking genius, that’s what this is.
