Disrespecting the 40

I know many people who enjoy drinking malt liquor. Most of the people who enjoy drinking malt liquor I know are from Miami. Yet, among my friends from MIT (or other college graduates), very few actually enjoy drinking malt liquor; and it perplexes me. I'll easily agree that 40 oz. of malt liquor isn't the greatest tasting liquor, but it certainly beats Budweiser, Miller, and Blue Ribbon. Add to this the fact that it costs $2.69 (and this is expensive for national standards since it is DC and has a 10% sales tax), is 40 oz., and one can get you pretty damned buzzed from drinking one forty. What is not to love? Honestly, the 40 is amazing. Ten dollars at a club gets you a watered down long island ice tea, which won't even get you buzzed.

So, I would like to give a toast to malt liquor, getting me drunk since 1999!



On another note, it really pisses me off when people wear CCCP shirts; I remember Urban Outfitters used to sell those shirts. WillIAm wears a CCCP shrit in the new Black Eyed Peas video. Do people not realize what CCCP means? Do they not realize that shirt does not have a single positive meaning? The USSR was one of the most evil, destructive, disturbing nation-state in the history of mankind. Okay, I'm done ranting...for now.
