There isn’t enough beer in the world to make Helen Thomas attractive.
Dude. That was just wrong. That ‘s a face that’ll make a freight train take a dirt road.
They belong together.
New???
Hell's Belles, I conducted that study almost 40 years ago.
My buddy and I would go out on the prowl and his beer goggles worked faster and more effectively than mine. We had more than a few arguments because my standards did not decline as quickly as his (actually his plunged....) and I wouldn't cooperate in trying to land a pair of arf arfs.
“How many beer would be needed for this one? “
I would be dead from alcohol poisoning!
(In one episode of Cheers, Cliff is seated at the bar describing the Buffalo Theory to his buddy, Norm. I don't think I've ever heard the concept explained any better than this....)
"Well you see, Norm, it's like this...A herd of buffalo can only move as fast as the slowest buffalo. And when the herd is hunted, it is the lowest and weakest ones at the back that are killed first. This natural selection is good for the herd as a whole, because the general speed and health of the whole group keeps improving by the regular killing of the weakest members.
In much the same way, the human brain can only operate as fast as the slowest brain cells. Now, as we know, excessive intake of alcohol kills brain cells. But naturally, it attacks the slowest and weakest brain cells first. In this way, regular consumption of beer eliminates the weaker brain cells, making the brain a faster and more efficient machine. And that, Norm is why you always feel smarter after a few beers."
