:shrug:

[Midlodemocrat]

16. Box Wine Researchers.

Do you live under a rock?

[Inchworm]

17. Freshmen

;)

[LynneSin]

18. I thought Freshmen studied bum wine

:shrug:

Box wine is what they advance to in their sophomore year - if they make it that far

[Inchworm]

22. Actually, I got to thinking you may be right

One thing is for sure though -- LynneSins research box wine.

:rofl:

:hide:

[jakefrep]

57. How do you think this website came to be?

http://www.bumwine.com/

It's nice to see inexpensive wine get such serious study.

[LynneSin]

59. I studied bum wines my freshman year first semester

:scared:

I thought I'd sign up for the course for 2nd semster but after a difficult final exam with MD 20/20 I realized that perhaps it was best I drop the class altogether. So 2nd semester I switched to cheap beer under $7 a case instead.

[Bake]

13. HA!! And you know it has to be true

I saw it on the internet!!

Bake

19. SHE IS FAMOUS!!!

Box wines have enjoyed a comeback in popularity in Virginia and with those who enjoy playing Bunco and driving Minivans, thanks to their leader, Midlo.

[Midlodemocrat]

20. Yes. Finally my leadership skills are appreciated.

:rofl:

[underpants]

21. LOL

[LynneSin]

23. Wait - you're from Virginia - that includes you TOO!!

:eyes:

[underpants]

24. I don't drive one of those bourgeois minivans

I have a volvo

30. South of the James - By Invitation Only.

:rofl:

[underpants]

32. Okay we need to talk about something

the RMA is RAISING the price of going over the river

RAISING it

What like we don't have Applebee's over here or something????


Actually the main thing everyone is amazed about is--Why 20 cents? Why not a flat quarter? Have they ever SEEN how long it takes their people to make change WHEN IT WAS ONLY QUARTERS!!! let alone throwing the nickel thing in there

:wtf:

[Midlodemocrat]

34. I know. It's ridiculous.

it's $1.75 each way for me to go to the airport, now. Absolutely ridiculous.

And, the ones who really piss me off are the ones who get in exact change or smart tag without either and expect ME to back up. Idiots. :eyes:

[underpants]

36. a NICKEL!!!

Holy crap pencil in another 10 minutes per trip. That is going to screw everything up!


Let alone that people will have to get THEIR change right

:nuke:

[LynneSin]

27. VOLVO??!!! WTF - you a fricking liberal or something

:eyes:

[underpants]

29. I drink lattes and listen to NPR in it too

Oh...can't catch my breath...dying...

:rofl:

[Gormy Cuss]

35. No more denials from Midlo. I read it on the internet and know it's true.

:rofl:

I hope someone keeps a screen capture for history.

[flvegan]

37. Not JUST the internet, but on Wiki.

It's fact. Bona fide.

[LynneSin]

38. There you go

:D

[Rabrrrrrr]

39. Gotta go into the history to see the Midlo inclusion now that they've taken it out.

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Box_wine&oldid=200613378

[LynneSin]

40. Well that's an easy to solve problem we can fix!

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Box_Wine

[Rabrrrrrr]

41. Yeah, but it'll get taken out again soon.

[LynneSin]

42. Then we just put it back in

:shrug:

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

43. Who keeps taking it out?

Does wiki have mods???

How do they know?

:rofl:

[laconicsax]

46. They claim it was an "rv unsourced or suspect addition"

http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Box_wine&action=history

[LynneSin]

48. we could put it back in and cite this thread as a reference

:shrug:

[matcom]

45. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

too bad it is relegated to the history archives though

:rofl:

[Midlodemocrat]

47. Excuse me. There is nothing funny about this.

Bunco and Minivans are serious stuff.

:rofl:

[LostinVA]

49. Especially when Bunco and boxed wine result in vehicular homicide

[sasquatch]

53. No, homeless people don't count in her part of Virginia

Which is why she's feeling ambivelant about the foreclosure crisis. On one hand it creates more homeless, which she hate. But on the otherhand it creates more potential victims which she loves.

[sasquatch]

52. HAHAHAHA!!

:rofl:

[JVS]
