BEER IS SHIT!  If you manage to load this article then it means that it managed to pass around Lord's scissors, (He's a beer drinker) which is a victory in itself. The point I will try to make is: BEER IS SHIT!!! I can image now the armies of beer drinkers jumping around in their rooms (tripping over heaps of empty beer cans & bottles) shouting with anger: LYNCH! LYNCH! WE WANT BLOOD! KILL THE BLASPHEMIST!!! Well, fine... Ok, as I see it, you can drink beer because of two reasons: you like the taste or you want to get drunk. Taste? What taste? Beer is one of the worst tasting substances I have ever tried to consume in my whole life! It's bitter and the after taste in your mouth - YUCK!!! But, I can still imagine someone liking it (hardly, but I can). And I respect the people that drink beer because of the taste, you see, everybody has the right be weird as much as he likes. But, the people saying that they drink beer to get drunk I simply despise! That was brought to my attention after all those articles in various mags about drunk people on parties or many Which_beer_is_best? articles and even (!) some discussions on the same theme. I mean, how the fuck can you get drunk with beer??? All those 'beer drunks' on parties ar 100% pure fakers! Beer has between 0-10% of alcohol in it. In order to get drunk from beer you would need to drink 3 litres of the damn stuff and you can't possibly drink so much without puking right afterwards! I just can't believe all the hype that's created around beer! If you want to get drunk than go for wine or even better vodka or rum and then you'll find out what 'drunk' really means! And with as little as half a litre of vodka you get a kick same as from 2.5 litres of beer! And a litre of wine will be sufficient for most people to get nicely drunk. That's about the equivalent of 2 litres of strong beer! And if you go for taste then buy yourself a Cola or even better a fruit juice! In the end let me make one last thing clear: I am not a drunk nor am I encouraging people to become one and least of all I am not a beer expert! I just wrote this to sting some of those fake drinkers at the parties, and to help people recognize them for what they really are. If you don't agree with what I wrote or you want to clear the good name of beer (I would sure want to see that!) then write to us and prove me wrong!  Dr.J/PLS
