I could get behind an active move to try and solve the rest of our problems around a table while drinking beer.

Pull out the scotch if you needed to talk about war stuff.

Maybe brandy or just do shots of vodka when talking about the economy.

VP Joe Biden is invited to attend the summit in order to balance out the white guy/black guy ratio.

You know sometimes I sit at home, you know, and I watch T.V. and I wonder what it would be like to live someplace like, you know, the Cosby show, Ozzie and Harriet, you know, where cops come and got your cat outta the tree all your friends died of old age, But you see, I live in Cambridge, Massachusetts and unfortunately...shit AIN'T LIKE THAT! IT'S REAL farkED UP!

Goddamn what a brotha gotta do to get a message through to the red, white and blue?

AZ INDY said...

And it was noticed by all after the beer was brought out, that none of these assholes were the most interesting man in the world.

Who invited AZ to the captioning?

adlib said...

Crowley: All right. Where is the poison? The battle of wits has begun. It ends when you decide and we both drink, and find out who is right... and who is dead.

Gates: But it's so simple. All I have to do is divine from what I know of you; are you the sort of man who would put the poison into his own mug or his enemy's? Now, a clever man would put the poison into his own mug, because he would know that only a great fool would reach for what he was given. I am not a great fool, so I can clearly not choose the beer in front of you. But you must have known I was not a great fool, you would have counted on it, so I can clearly not choose the beer in front of you.

Crowley: You've made your decision then?

Gates: Not remotely! Because iocane comes from Cambridge, as everyone knows, and Cambridge is entirely peopled with criminals, and criminals are used to having people not trust them, as I am not trusted by you, so I can clearly not choose the beer in front of me.

Crowley: Truly, you have a dizzying intellect.

Gates: Wait til I get going! Now, where was I?

Crowley: Cambridge.

Gates: Yes, Cambridge. And you must have suspected I would have known the powder's origin, so I can clearly not choose the beer in front of me.

Crowley: You're just stalling now.

Gates: You'd like to think that, wouldn't you? You've already arrested me, which means you're exceptionally strong, so you could've put the poison in your own mug, trusting on your strength to save you, so I can clearly not choose the beer in front of you. But, you've also bested my friend Barack by calling his bluff and accepting his invitation here today, which means you must have studied, and in studying you must have learned that man is mortal, so you would have put the poison as far from yourself as possible, so I can clearly not choose the beer in front of me.

Crowley: You're trying to trick me into giving away something. It won't work.

Gates: IT HAS WORKED! YOU'VE GIVEN EVERYTHING AWAY! I KNOW WHERE THE POISON IS!

Crowley: Then make your choice.

Gates: I will, and I choose - What in the world can that be?

Gates: [Gates gestures up and away from the table. Crowley looks. Gates swaps the mugs]

Crowley: [Looks back] What? Where? I don't see anything.

Gates: Well, I- I could have sworn I saw something. No matter. First, let's drink. Me from my glass, and you from yours.

Crowley, Gates: [they drink ]

Crowley: You guessed wrong.

Gates: You only think I guessed wrong! That's what's so funny! I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha ha! You fool! You fell victim to one of the classic blunders! The most famous is never get involved in a land war in Cambridge, but only slightly less well-known is this; never go in against an African-American when death is on the line! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha...

Gates: [Gates stops suddenly, and falls dead to the right]

Biden: And to think, all that time it was your mug that was poisoned.

Crowley: They were both poisoned. I spent the last few years building up an immunity to Cambridge iocane powder.

Obama: Awww... man! You are one sharp white boy Crowley!

Biden: And then, and then the Skipper whipped off his hat and smacked Gilligan right in the head!

Gates: Who put this pubic hair on my Red Stripe?

Biden: You know, Henry Louis, I've been wondering; other than teaching Afro-American studies, what are your graduates qualified to do for a living? I mean, who's willing to pay for those skills?

Obama: That's it Joe, you're getting a ball-gag

Biden: "Uh, well, I'm really more of a whiskey guy, ask Kennedy. Boy, the things we used to do when we got drunk. I remember this time we were drinking in Chappaquiddick..."

Obama: "You're just here for the photo op, aren't you?"

Biden: "I gotta get in on something! Anything! Lemme do healthcare! I swear I'll get them to meet the August deadline!"

Obama: "Get out Joe."

snuffaluffagus said: VP Joe Biden is invited to attend the summit in order to balance out the white guy/black guy ratio.



If they did that, then they fail at math. 2 white guys + 0.50 black guy(Prez) + 0.43 black guy(Skippy) = 3.07 white guys and 0.93 black guys. Why are they ganging up on the less than 1 black guy?

Obama: The thing about eating the black and white cookie is you want to get some black and some white in each bite. Nothing mixes better than vanilla and chocolate. And yet somehow racial harmony eludes us. If people would only look to the cookie all our problems would be solved.

"OK, so next time you guys want to party, here's the scenario: Joe - you attempt to break into your own office, I'll attempt to break into the Cambridge Police Headquarters, Our esteemed colleague can try to impersonate me, and then our law enforcement friend can magically bust us all!"
"Mr. President, there's only one problem with that."
"What's the problem, Joe?"
"I still haven't found my office yet!"
"It's OK - you don't do anything anyway."

magnus_the_rhino said - 'Ha! that cop put a lemon wedge in his Blue Moon, the biggest faux pas possible with (wheat) beer! Douchebag.'


That's what you do with Blue Moon. Lemon or Orange or none. Drinkers choice.

nostradamus said...

Um, how about no. The citric acid in a lemon/orange kills head retention, which is otherwise a sign of good beer and shows good carbonation and protein levels. If you asked for that in Bavaria/Belgium, where the real wheatbeers are made, there's a good chance they'd ask you to fuck off.

Fruit in the beer glass = for women and/or people who don't know beer.

turkishtowel said...

Thank you for setting magnus_the_rhino straight. Blue Moon is actually brewed with coriander and orange zest I believe, and it's supposed to be an orange as it draws out the flavor in the beer, not a lemon.

Antimatter said...

what the fuck do you mean we only get 1 beer?

TomInJax said...

Ummm...I think the technically correct way is not to "fruit the beer" but rather to "fruit the glass". You're supposed to rim the glass with the orange slice, which in turn is supposed to enhance the fruity bits that are already in Blue Moon and several other wheat beers. Not all wheat beers have fruity bits, mind you, but for those that do, I believe that's the technical thing to do - should you opt for fruit.

Obama: Isn't it some ethics course?
Gates: Yeah, it was "Ethical Quandries in modern Chicano society."
Biden: *scribbling* "Ethical candies in molten chocolate saucy" Sounds tasty.
Crowley: So he was your punishment for beating Hillary, wasn't he?

Newsmonger said...

Okay, here's the plan AZ: Leave town for a week. When you come back, I'll be waiting in your neighborhood. I'll call the cops, and then we'll BOTH get to have a beer in the white house! Deal? Deal.

lyrical said...

Everyone's a little bit racist
Sometimes.
Doesn't mean we go
Around committing hate crimes.
Look around and you will find
No one's really color blind.
Maybe it's a fact
We all should face
Everyone makes judgments
Based on race.

Everyone's a little bit racist
Today.
So, everyone's a little bit racist
Okay!
Ethinic jokes might be uncouth,
But you laugh because
They're based on truth.
Don't take them as
Personal attacks.
Everyone enjoys them -
So relax!

If we all could just admit
That we are racist a little bit,
Even though we all know
That it's wrong,
Maybe it would help us
Get along.

nana4g said...

from cnn.com:
The president was drinking Bud Light, Biden was drinking Buckler (a nonalcoholic beer), Gates was drinking Samuel Adams Light and Crowley was drinking Blue Moon.

adlib said...

how 'bout everyone just drink whatever beer they want however they want, huh?

I'll take a Guinness with a slice of raw potato, thanks...

Matt said...

I had a bartender at a bar in my town convinced that was how the "real Irish" drink their Guinness... she wasn't too smart, and didn't know how to pour a proper pint anyway... I wonder if she ever actually tried it...

Oddly enough, I used to see drinkers in Dublin ask for Guinness with a splash of Black Currant syrup all the time back in the 90s, which strikes me as more disgusting than a slice of spud.

camus343 said...

I've seen that... the daytime bartender at my local is off the boat and got me to try it. Your impression is correct. It's pretty disgusting... well, the first sip or 2 is interesting but once you're 1/4 way in it really starts to get to be too much.

keebiejeebie said...

Yeah, I tried it once... ruined the whole pint, in my opinion.

Black Currant is so sickly sweet... Gave me bad memories of sneaking shots of blackberry brandy at my friend's house when I was a kid.

canto do galo said...

At that point it ceases to be a beer and starts to become a cocktail if not a salad. If you need to add something to your beer it wasn't made right in the first place. Want it to have more of an orange taste? BREW IT THAT WAY! It just goes to show that this MillerCoors product is not tended by a skilled brewmaster.

enufsaid said...

and...... we're done here. Thanks for playing.
