Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Originally reserved for cheap-asses and high school students, PBR has been enjoying a renaissance among the hipster set, primarily due to its low price point and identification as a old-school, "genuine" brand.

Also, it got a hilarious shout out in Blue Velvet.

"Heineken?!??!? Fuck that shit!!! Pabst! Blue! Ribbonnnnnn!!!"

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

It's funny-- in college it was Milwaukee's Best more than PBR-- I wonder if it was a southern thing.

We drank The Beast, PBR, High Life, and Black Label in high school. Basically, whichever shitty beer was on sale, we drank. In college, most of the dudes drank Mickey's when they weren't drinking from a keg.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think now would be the perfect time for matching sweaters!

It's funny-- in college it was Milwaukee's Best more than PBR-- I wonder if it was a southern thing. Not that I ever drank it because beer? ptui.

The Beast was definitely the cheap beer of choice in my college. I think PBR was just totally out of fashion at that point. (early/mid 90s)

The cheap beer of choice when I was in college was Heffenreffer aka the Green Death. That, and Corona, which was dirt cheap until it suddenly got the inexplicable cache' it did.

Oh, and good luck with the flood, tommyrot.

And the beer-and-ice-cream talk reminds me of How I Met Your Mother.

Also also, I just had a crappy meeting and would really like either a beer or some ice cream.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Hey, what is the name of the women's active clothing store that people recommend (especially Kat)? We are going to Thailand next month and I'm looking for some light pants.

Wait, Heffenfeffer is the one that came in 40s with a rebus inside the cap, right? That was totally high school for me.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

There was a guy I used to date who, when I stayed over on weekends, it was hot pizza and cold High Life Friday night and cold pizza and warm High Life Saturday mornings. Good times, good times (not really).

Thanks, Kristin. It happened several years ago, and the family has mostly delt with it. It only really gets to me anymore at certain times like my sister's wedding, his 18th birthday, or visiting our HS alma mater where he would've gone the following year.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

The cheap beer of choice
