beer

If the Ivory Tower is the brain of the board, and the Transformers discussion is its heart, then General Discussions is the waste disposal pipe. Or kidney. Or something suitably pulpy and soft, like 4 week old bananas.

The "i" in "Señior" from "Señior's Covenant" is intentional and part of a stupid & cheesy inside joke from '02. Thank you for your concern.

I sense that you've really earned that beer.
Can't believe I'm still here.

I got back from the hospital about two hours ago and am in great pain 'cos they stuck a tube down my throat and cut out a small part of my lung to test. I also got told off for smoking (yay doobies!).
I really should be resting, but I couldn't resist dropping in (I won't be staying long today though).
My throat feels like I've been gargling sand and my chest hurts a bit too. I got cut up this morning, but had to stay for hours to let the drugs wear off and for them to see if I was okay before I could go home.

Hopefully I'll be better tomorrow, and my results will be good ones when they arrive.
I cannot have beer right now (getting back to the topic).

Sorry to kill the mood.

But I'm here, so that raises my spirits. Pity those spirits aren't the alcoholic kind though, eh?

Since this topic is already called "beer", how 'bout an informal poll

What's your favorite beer?

Mine would have to be Carta Blanca.

As long as we're talking beer, and NOT lager (urine that it is).
Actually ANY beer will do me - I'm not picky.

T'was Corona done up with salt and lime. Good inexpensive ****. I also miss the straw trick. I'm sure most know it, but I'll share anyway. You take either one of those flexable straws, or as I used to take an ordinary straw and just burn it slightly an inch and a half down, fold it and wait for the plastic to cool to give it a nice angle. I'm not sure of what exactly it's doing, but it practically shoots the beer down your throat. Good stuff.


Man I could use a drink sometimes.

Don't drink 'Winter Warmer'. WORST BEER EVER.
Perhaps I AM a bit picky.

Right - that's me for tonight.

Mmm... beer...

I've done that afore-the straw allows air into the bottle, which helps push the beer-o down your gullet. At least, that's my understanding of it.

Hmmm....beer....


I love beer.


Not the ones that are so 'light' that I can read through them though.

Jeez, Autobloke, I hope you're doing better today. That sounded rough, man.

Favourite beer...well, I'll drink most stuff really...except Tennents'. Urg, the very thought makes me shudder.
But I'm mainly one of those types who don't really see the need for beer when whisky and vodka exist, I'm afraid.

Ta. I feel a bit better today, but I won't be doing much that requires moving about for a few days.

At last! Someone with the right idea!
And you can add beer to it too. :D

I thought it was some kind of lineup of famous people who had killed under the influence of alcohol. I don't follow sport, y'see.

How do we all feel about cider? My mum comes from Somerset - home of scrumpy.
