Even more proof of the Benjamin Franklin adage;

“Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.”

Beer goggles last longer for women

In Bender's case that is a good thing.

I tried this once. It didn't work. She simply wiped the beer off her face and left. (bu-dump-bump)

I think people use alcohol as an excuse when they are so hard up they sleep with anything.

Beer ... allowing ugly to procreate for centuries. Wine works as well.

I like the tale of Lenten beer. If you are not familiar with it, it is very thick and rich dark beer, full of calories and strong. It is made especially for the Catholic Lenten fast month, and has the remarkable ability to make your legs disappear after you drink a bottle.

When it was first invented by German monks, they were concerned that it was far too luscious, rich and delicious for the solemn period of Lent, so with deep spiritual concern, and considerable apprehension, they sent a monk to Rome with a case, so that the beverage could be verified as acceptable during this time of self-denial and humble reflection.

The Italians in the Vatican, however, were wine drinkers, and unfamiliar with beer. They tried some of this fine Lenten beer and found it to be near undrinkable, bitter and repugnant. So they were not only quick to approve its use during Lent, but made special notice of the piety of the German monks for having to endure the foul tasting swill.

Which is why, to this day, superb Lenten beers are still brewed with great care by the Catholic monks of Germany, and are regarded as one of the great premium beers of the world.

Diminished ability to detect facial symmetry by drinkers when sober sounds more like “brain damage” than “beer goggles.”
