BLAME THE MALT LIQUOR BTTT! lol
Wait a minute!....I like malt liquor and I'm still employed...does that mean????
Wow. I'm usually one to defend research that seems silly on first blush but turns out to be serious. I remember the press lampooning studies of how spiders walk, only to find out that the learnings were used to design new space probes.
This is ridiculous though. Newsflash: malt liquor will f*** you up! Alert Dave Chappelle.
As a lifelong resident of the urban, industrial Midwest, I can tell you that I'm SHOCKED! SHOCKED, I tell you!!! Why, this is a disgrace! Brown paper bags, INDEED! 40 ounce bottles in paper bags - do they have no SHAME?!?
(psssst!.....pass the OE 800.......)
They don't serve it a the Lockheed commisary?
.99 cent 40s of OE or the Bull, brings back memories...
I'm just wondering if my tax dollars paid for the groundbreaking piece of brilliant research.
What was bothersome to me, when I managed a liquor store in Lincoln, Nebraska, was that the marketing of this heavy-duty beer was concentrated solely upon one class of people (a class of people who should never have been drinking in the first place; life is rough enough the way it is, without the added complications of alcoholism)--the same sorts of people also had the curious habit of purchasing Newport cigarettes.
"Niche marketing" is fine, as long as it enhances, not debilitates, life.
In Palmdale?.....
-- Malt liquor beer drinkers are more likely to be homeless, unemployed, receive public assistance and tend to drink more alcohol, according to a U.S. study....well shit on a shingle!!!!....sign me up for A.A.A......
Consider this one a victory- malt liquor is cheap. Imagine the caviar study.
Yep, your days are numbered...
I work in a bar, within a casino, in a highly industrial neighborhood and am intimately familiar with the demographic of which you speak, but I still don't think Poland is under water.
(cryptic cross-thread humor/off)
L.O.L.....no malt liquor here....
