When I was younger I’ve definitely made fun of friends who order “girly” drinks, and have in turn been made fun of when I do it. It’s pretty standard among males in my generation (X) and older. Usually happens when everyone else in your group is ordering “manly” drinks like beer or hard liquor.

It doesn’t even have to be something like a cosmopolitan, it could be a gin & tonic, or rum and coke. If they’re all drinking bourbon on the rocks and you order something even slightly less strong, you’re going to hear about it.

Then there’s the times where the first guy orders a beer, then the next guy has to trump him with a run and coke, then the next guy gets a whiskey on the rocks, so then it gets one upped with a whiskey neat. Next thing you know we’re smoking crack in the alley. Just kidding about that last one, but you get the idea. We thought we were being macho, but we were idiots in our early 20s, so shrug

I don’t know if I’d call the guy behind Adult Friend Finder a “tech boss”

I thought this was a posting to “Idiots of Facebook” at first. Guess I’m the idiot

That’s typically less than a beer per hour. I get a buzz if they’re IPAs or other high APV beers, but otherwise I just like the mellowing effects

Appreciate the fact you can force your pee stream further now. I don’t know when I lost the ability but I do remember when I tried to and nothing happened. It was a shocking reminder I was getting old

Whew! I drink 4 or 5 beers daily and have for years. None of those listed markers applies to me. I don’t drink to get drunk, just to relax.

Then why do Formula 1 teams spend so much money on wind tunnels?

I rarely drink either as I’m caffeine sensitive, but if I need a few sips to get me going I go for the burnt bean soup over the dirt tasting weak leaf soup

The real shame is they didn’t make it to their next stop on their trip: Ukraine.

This is why we can’t have nice things

My go-to is “Is something burning?”

Tell me how Trump would handle this better than Biden.

This propaganda is coming from the most prosperous, overachieving nation in the history of mankind, so it seems like there might be something to it. Now the propaganda coming from impoverished, third world countries saying how all their problems can be solved through communism, just doesn’t have the same luster for some reason.

Now if you can point me to an example of a utopic nation where everything is wonderful and workers run the show, I’m all ears.

This isn’t what I needed to see right after waking up while stretching my Achilles so I can walk without limping

Imagine the outrage from Faux News if Biden endorsed a product while sitting at his Oval Office desk
