Name the wine bargains here -- From Mike Pobega

  • Thread starter Thread starter Unknown
  • Start date Start date
I actually have fond memories of Shafer Napa Cab. At a card party in the distant past I poured some then current release to the non-wine (more cigarettes and vodka) geeks. They were unable to restrain their enthusiasm, likening it to heroin. Later, my friend Charlie saw a woman in a local beverage retailer looking at a bottle. He mentioned that the wine was like heroin. She bought a case.

Which brings me to my question, is Dune Spice akin to heroin, or is it more like LSD?
 
I thought I had seasoned him better than that, with near-constant barrages of insults and general assholery...

There are very few idiot savants who can drop in here cold and survive. You may be one of the lucky ones.

The typical progression involves years of lurking, followed by adding responses to a thread in which you "pile on" agreeing with whatever someone else says about 2003 Chave or Brad Kane. After this, you still may want to find a "buddy" who is established himself/herself in the prison yard before posting. The first post should be something about Muscadet and how amazing some 2 year old bottle of Ppire has evolved since the last time you had it.

That said, you still might be considered a fucking newb for years.

Best,
Joe

Ironically, some of the kittens in the dance circle drop dead suddenly, as God has killed them because someone was masturbating.
 
Hm, good classic Fark reference... worked in organically... under two minutes... this kid may have potential.

Hey kid, let me know if anyone tries to shank you.

What, I'm your bitch, now? You obviously haven't seen my soap on a rope, and nunchuck skills.

Hott dammn, how'd I survive all these bloody years then? I still remember my hazing as if it were yesterday. Perhaps this is why college alumni have such fond memories of their Greek life!

Scrappy, too. Reminds me of a young VLM, back in his glory days.

Ah, good times, good times....

One option is to not participate.

Dressner speaks as the lone Computer Science major who 'chose' not to rush when in college...

You clearly never heard about the Hamburger Helper Jeebus of 2002. Poor things never saw it coming.

I suggest tear-away underpants.
