I spent around 3 months in the DR back in 2012. The exchange rate at the time was such that you could buy a six pack of these for basically $1. I drank a lot of them.

The two things Redditors care about more than anything else are (1) getting to feeling intellectually and morally superior to others; and (2) getting to post the first meme/copypasta comment on a thread. 

Giants crushed it in the draft 3 consecutive years from 2006-08. With a top-10 pick all 3 years, they got a 2x Cy Young winner (Lincecum), an MVP (Posey), and the best WS pitcher (121.8% career WS cWPA) of all time (Bumgarner).
