I’ve always wanted to try Sam Adam’s Utopia, the 50 proof beer that goes for over $100 per bottle. While it was at one point the most expensive beer in the world, it’s now dropped down to #4 on the list and here are the rest.

If you thought crocheting for old bitties and lonely housewives, this Jägermeister crochet might help prove you wrong. Apparently, chrocheters like to party like college kids.

Beer Pong Linked To Herpes Rise
I don’t hate booze, but I really do think drinking games are pathetic most of the time. Maybe it’s because my ex of three years was an obsessive beer drinker. Regardless, I couldn’t help but laugh when I read this headline. Funny enough, they’re only talking about oral herpes from sharing glasses, not the other kind from losing one too many beer pong games.
* In 100% unrelated news, I added a new post on Cheapskate’s Handbook for the first time in a long time. Go look if you like free sandwiches and taking care of your pets.

A Toast to Comfort
Consumerist tipped me off to an awesome event in Chicago -a Snuggie Pub Crawl. I know most people hate these things, but as someone who practically spends all their home time with a blanket on, I want one. And I want to go to this awesome event. If only I lived a few thousand miles from my home sweet home in San Diego. No, I think I’d still rather live here and choose blankets willingly, not out of necessity.

Long time no post
Sorry loves, but I have had sickness and allergies that have made it a nightmare to function on a most basic level. I promise to start getting things back on track soon and as a first step, I thought I might tell those of you who are total drunks that Google feels your pain. In fact, they recently created a new Gmail service to stop you from sending out those pesky “drunk emails” to your friends and contacts. It’s called goggles and it requires you to answer a few math questions before the email can be sent.
Once you turn it on, you can adjust it to only work during the hours you are most likely to be tossed. So relax alcies, Gmail cares about you and the stupid shit you do while under the influence.
