5 Beers

Post by G. Keenan »

This is just the wrong number of beers! If you have two or three beers it just makes you sleepy. If you have 5 you want to keep going! I can't go to sleep in this state. It's either the nice drowsy of just a few, or the pass out drunk of 10-15. This in between state is like some kind of purgatory.

It's still early enough to go get you some more beer!

Yeah but all my friends have turned in. It's too late to set out by myself. Plus it's snowing pretty good at the moment.

The timing of this couldn't have been better. I literally just stepped outside for a smoke, and there's some jackass jogging down the middle of my street. It's snowing pretty good (5 inches now?) and the road hasn't been touched. I thought to myself, "Gee, I'd bet he's jogging up to the gas station to get more beer."

If he is, I commend him. He's a braver man than I.

This is when you drink whatever alcohol is in your house (no matter how terrible) until you are squinting with your one open eyeball two inches from the keyboard trying to make posts. Take a shot of dry vermouth and get to it.

If you drink some Duvel you don't have to drink 5 to get to that slightly buzzed stage.

Good rant. I've never been able to drink just to get a slight buzz. It's either a beer or glass of wine with dinner/in the evening or full on drunk, no in between. I never understood the people that could go to a bar and just have a drink or two (unless they are driving of course).

Yeah I am also pretty bad at saying "No guys this is the perfect buzz! ! !"

When it does happen, later I usually think "man I could have had a few more there" but I guess I would probably have been wrong.

Eh.
