Alcoholic artworks: in close-up

First is the classic gin and tonic:

I’ve never had a G&T make me see that! I guess we haven’t been drinking the right stuff here on the bottoms up OOT.

    Enough absinthe and sugar cubes would do the trick…

    Hmmmm… cough, cough… I call bullshit. That picture is obviously a close up of the Nike Galaxy Foamposites Sneakers that are the focus of the recent outbreak of Sneaker Riots currently sweeping the country.

    This speech by Newt to the NRA 2011 Annual Meeting is well worth the 20 or so minutes of your time it will take to listen to it.

    @ huckfunn:
    Damn! Those are fugly shoes. Anyone who would start a riot to get those things should have their feet sawn off and replaced with stove lids. Sheesh!

    @ Bunk X:
    You always make me log on with those breaking stories.

    We need to send ISTE a keg of crappy bear so he can celebrate ala “American Style”.

    I was busy downloading pics of the Chinese Chicks to post on the Boiler Room Wall next to the sanitary napkin receptacle/hoop when the game was interrupted by the announcement. ISTE has been studying English for years, but kept flunking the spelling tests. Kept inserting the letter “u” in places where it doesn’t belong.

    @ Bunk X:
    Bunk, I think he spells better than most US high school graduates even with the random extra “u” inrown about in words.

    However, he might need some music lessons…. for example, no one stateside knows who Nightwish is and when we are presented with that particular Eurocrap, we just want to shove some Southern Rock down his ears.

    @ Calo:
    He’s from Southern Britain. That means he was born with earflaps and has no appreciation for songs like this:

    Thanks Bunk!

    Yep that is quite correct. I am allowed to live and work in the United States of America for another ten years as long as I behave myself and am not an asshole.

    However, this time I can leave the USA and come back!

    (For people who do not know the finer points of immigration law, there are some situations where if you leave the USA you cannot return for three or ten years.)

    Oh, and now I have to pay tax… :(
