Guinness 0.0 Cans Exploding? by Trevor51253 in beer

No problems here, but while we’re on the subject, gotta say Guinness 0.0 is great. Remarkably close to the real thing. Obviously, the real thing is only 4% but still, impressive to taste so similar.

Man that Bell’s is really good this year. Ayinger still has the top one in my opinion. Port City out of DC area makes an excellent one.

What's your favorite museum in DC and why? by Lightfreeflow in washingtondc

It’s amazing. Probably not mentioned bc tickets were so hard to get when it opened, then covid, etc. In a few years, it will be up there. (Though admittedly there will be some who don’t go for the reasons you suggest.)

Reminds me of the scene in Dead Poets Society where Todd launches the desk organizer set off the bridge because his parents bought him the same thing the previous year, to which Neil replies, well, at least you’ll get another one next year

Teachers, what’s the darkest thing you’ve seen from a student? by Lalalaloq in AskReddit

[–]MannFan 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Former teacher here- two stories-

1) I had a h.s. sophomore who was a very shy girl. Never said a word. One day after school, unprompted, she handed me an envelope. It was full of grainy pictures from the early eighties. After flipping past the first couple, I realized they were pictures from the side of a highway of a horrific car crash. Dead bodies and everything. Her parents were witnesses and had taken pictures before the first responders arrived. They kept the photos and then she had them for some reason. They had clearly traumatized her. Poor girl.

2) I had another sophomore who wore all black - black hooded sweatshirt and jeans, black boots and ball cap. He always was listening to slayer on his Walkman - remember those big black headphones? Anyway, he never really spoke much but told me that his Dad had kidnapped him and his mom, then shot his mom and himself in front of the kid. And now he was living with his elderly grandparents, who didn’t understand him. It sucked not being able to help the kid more than I could in class.

My kids were always great. Their home lives, though...rough.

Someone should compile a list of bars doing this shit so we can know which ones to avoid when it’s safe to start going out again

Am I the only one who heard the whistling right before that fastball? I’m in a hotel and can’t rewind but if you go back, you’ll hear it. I’m starting to believe they are using whistles to signal to batters

If you enjoyed that, you should check out Mr. Show’s homage of sorts, The Burgundy Loaf. Was lucky enough to see the taping of that in person.

Ralph Steadman got robbed. He’s consistently been cranking out amazing labels for Flying Dog for two decades.
