Cold Ale - The Blokes' Thread!

[The Atheist]

Those brain diagrams almost made me pee myself.

Ah, you know what they say, inside every stereotype lies a prototype...

I wouldn't know much about the Berlin wall- that was WAY before my time.

Ouch, you must be a young 'un.

Are you old enough to drink beer? (That's not compulsory, by the way - I'd expect that most people here have a good attitude towards drinking.)

[Chava]

I'm no bloke, but I couldn't resist a bit of a british remark concerning american beer; in the words of eminent Monty Python,

American beer is like making love in a canoe.
It's f******* close to water.

Oh, and since this is a forum about great thinkers, and this is a thread about alcohol, this second contribution is in order:

Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could take you under the table
David Hume could out-consume
Schopenhauer and Hegel
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as sloshed as Schlegel
There's nothing Nietszche couldn't teach ya
'Bout the raising of the wrist
Socrates himself was permanently pissed
John Stuart Mill of his own free will
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill
Plato they say could stick it away
Half a crate of whiskey every day
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle
Hobbes was fond of his Dram
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart
"I drink, therefore I am !"
Yes Socrates himself is particularly missed
A lovely little thinker
But a bugger when he's pissed.

That's it for me, I'll go away now

That's still true!

But if you're not a bloke, what are you doing in the men's thread?

Jeez, if ever there needed to be an example of why males need a place away from females, this thread is surely it! Can't go two posts without some interfering woman sticking her beak in.

I'm warning you - I will bring beer into the girlie thread if this continues. This is the War of the Sexes at the front line!

That's it for me, I'll go away now

Don't let that url hit you in the rear on the way!

Please do, I'd rather have a good dark Belgien ale, then a mug of tea. You can't intimidate me at all.

[Emil Miller]

What's my excuse?

Retarded development or you have been lying about your age.

[The Atheist]

Are we allowed to talk about kids in a Real Blokes thread?

I think it's probably ok as long as you stick to describing how awful they are, how much you'd like to strangle them on occasions and how much you think you could sell your family for on ebay.

No "My little princess is so wonderful, she can count to a million and she's only 9 months old...." stuff, ok? Leave that for that coffee thread.

Please do, I'd rather have a good dark Belgien ale, then a mug of tea. You can't intimidate me at all.

Haha! I certainly can:

I hope this is the right thread for this little tidbit: but I just stepped outside my house, walked across the yard, took a few steps into the woods, and peed. And you know what I felt when the experience was over? PRIDE.

Beat that!

You know you can't. Just face it - men rule.

(And if in doubt, check here )

Retarded development or you have been lying about your age.

Yikes! I must be in trouble then, and my 80-year old mate reckons his brain still works the same way, so he's in even bigger trouble.

[Chava]

Haha! I certainly can

No, that isn't the least bit scary. Back in the days of the rainforest, we didn't even have toilet paper, we had leaves. You're going to have to try harder.

[skib]

If we ABSOLUTELY must bring age into it, legally, no, I'm 19, but since when has that stopped anybody?

And on the topic of kids! I hate kids. Kids are crawling/climbing nightmares. Every time a kid screams at a restaurant or in a store, I cringe, and whoever I am with says, "You were just like that once," I can say, "No, I wasn't. My 'rents whacked me every time I made a scene in public!" Needless to say, I didn't make scenes in public.

When one of my cousins was very little (around five or six) we were visiting the new house, and he just walked up behind me and bit me right square on the ***. No warning, just CHOMP! I've hated kids ever since.

I wouldn't know much about the Berlin wall- that was WAY before my time.

For those of us who had to go through it, you don't know how lucky you are.

Must have been pretty bad then? (please pardon my historical ignorance- I have a hard enough time analyzing the present!)

Could it have something to do with the Jack Daniel's?

[skib]

Possibly in the past, but as of late the adult indulgences have been few and far between. It may also have something to do with the fact that half the time I am in the mountains cut off from the rest of the world. In all likelihood, it is a combination of things.

The very first comment in there after it was started was by me and I asked if I could brng beer. Some things never change.

[Scheherazade]

Some things never change.

Can never decide whether that is a good thing or not!
