A product of our cultural diversity. Hard to argue that point.

I had plenty of fun today; I'm actually fermenting my own drinks in the kitchen downstairs.

I'm just waiting for when this country takes an actual solemn holiday and bastardizes it into a drinking binge. "Hey, it's April 24, and everyone's Armenian on April 24! My name for today is Joe Smithian, and this is my friend Brock Robertsian! Ha ha ha! And to think this wouldn't be possible if not for an attempted genocide!"

A French-Mexican war shouldn't signify ANYTHING in the United States. If you want to drink, then drink. Don't just pick a random ass holiday to do it on.

I bastardize most days into a drinking binge.

They say that everyone's Irish on St. Patrick's Day, which is borne out by the fact that millions of people skip work (if they have a job) to sit in a bar for 12+ hours and drink until they puke. Is everyone Mexican on Cinco de Mayo? Will there be millions of people hanging around the front of Home Depot or selling food out of the back of a truck?
Bingo!

Someone asked me if I had Mexican food for lunch. I asked her if she thought Mexicans made it a point to eat American food on July 4th.

It makes no sense to me.

Not to the point of drinking 3 or 4 or getting puking black out drunk

The fact you just put "drinking 3 or 4" in the same sentence as "getting puking black out drunk" really makes me laugh.

"OH GOD!!! If I tried to drink...a full six-pack, I'd probably wind up in Mexico being woke up by the sudden loss of my man-ginity to a rabid goat!!!!"

I thank you, young teetotaler, for providing me drunken, stoned amusement on this Seis de Mayo!

Yeah, man, that's cruel and untrue. A person has to actually have sexual organs to be a hermie. You just hit Mt where it would hurt if there was something to hurt there. You should apologize for that insensitivity.

I made that my Facebook status first thing this morning and its unanimous that everyone now considers me an asshole. I thought it was funny. Oh well.
Fuck 'em if they can't take a joke.

You lose for spelling Labatt with an "E". ;)
