Boring, banal people doing boring, banal things

[FrodosPet]

Boy they sure are icky, aren't they? They dress poorly and smell bad and drink commercial American beer instead of vintage Cabernet or a fine I.P.A.

Remember: We stand for labor, as long as we don't have to stand next to laborers.



Just say HELL NO! to arrogance and elitism. Start caring about the people as well as the cause, and maybe we will have a few more allies.

Or continue with the so-called "limousine liberalism" and continue to ask why we aren't making more progress.

1. Beer!

I like Bud lite with lime, myself.

2. Many of us poor smelly SOB's-

are developing a liking of fine IPA's.

3. My hands are covered with roofing compound right now

but I still won't drink that flavored water swill known as American beer.

I drink fine IPAs if that's alright with you and yes I am a snob who refuses to drink beer from a can.

4. I didn't THINK that was my point

I don't care for it either. I would much rather have a Newcastle Brown, or perhaps a Blue Moon.

The question is: Do you look down on people, that they are your inferior, because they drink that flavored water swill known as American beer?

If you respect the lives and labor of the working class, the message was not aimed at you. If you have a patronizing attitude towards us, then I hope your heart and mind opens up.

That's all I am saying. It ain't the beverage, it's the attitude of SOME supposedly progressive, inclusive, tolerant people that bothers me.

5. My friend drinks Mich Ultra from cans

and yes I make fun of him every time he opens one and he turns his nose up at my bitter beer.

I understand your sentiment but I am working class but I do have a prejudice against flavored water sold as beer but i also spent six years in Germany.

When I first came back to the States a friend gave me a can of Genny Cream Ale in a can. it's a good thing we were outside because I took a sip and then leaned forward and spit it back out. I didn't do it to be rude, I swear it was just pure reaction to the taste.

You just hijacked your own thread into a beer one.
