Whaddya Think?

I used to hate it , but now after drinking Sterling Lager , i see the merits of it...... I can still fucntion normally , work and even drive after several afternoon beers..... why did it take sooooo long for me to work this one out?

Do you think John Leslie was brought up on a diet of rapeseed?

umm are you talking to me? Coz if you are I have no idea who those people are....... maybe it is time I got off my p.c.

Sorry dude, British pop culture reference.

John Leslie is an ex-kids tv/game show host whose career ended when it was discovered that he supposedly raped anothe famous TV presenter.

The Craig Charles thing is vaguely related but we don't mention that here for fear of offending Chay.

So, rapeseed as a kid made him a rapist, as happy meals make you happy.

sterling?

you LIKE sterling?

wha? huh?

that was the single worst beer i have ever tasted.

it makes light beers taste bad!

try hahn or cascade premium light, they are good light beers.

oh, and for the record - light beers in AUS are light in alky content, not light in fat content.


personally, i would rather have 2 or 3 nice full strength beers, than 4 or 5 pisswaters.
