All Kinds of Bad Ideas Wrapped Up in One

Posted by on Fri, Feb 27, 2009 at 5:47 PM

9b19/1235771666-shotgun.jpgOh lord. I'm not convinced that developing an even faster way to get drunk is a good idea. I'm also not convinced that you want drunks to continually shoot themselves in the mouth.

Armed with the Alcohol Shot Gun, you can re-enact the most memorable movie scenes from "Dirty Harry" to "Matrix". "Do you feel lucky, sucker" is the only question? Pour in an ounce of your favorite drink into the cartridge, cock the trigger, point and shoot.

Still and all: It's probably safer than Jell-O shots, if just because you have to be able to have the manual dexterity to reload the goddamned thing time after time.

I remember when the Off Ramp used to sell $2 shots of ice cold Jagear or Goldschlager in test tubes. You just poured it down your gullet so you wouldn't taste the alcohol.

Will drinking ever NOT be cool? I ask you.

Unless the alcohol is going to reach a velocity that allows it to punch through the back of someone's cranium, I really don't see how this would "re-enact" famous action movie scenes.

Drunks will like what I tell them to like.

Wouldn't a squirt-gun produce the same effect..?

Because alcohol and guns are a great party combination...

Isn't the Eastwood quote "punk"... not "sucker"?

Please DO NOT (as is suggested above) use squirtguns or other non-food-grade plastic with alcohol.

All sorts of nasty stuff may leech out - alcohol is a very effective solvent.

I can see all sorts of bad things happening at parties raided by the police . . .

This is far from the worst idea spawned by alcohol.

Uhh, my guess is that *this* idea was spawned by pot, for the purposes of drinking alcohol.

How's Rize? You know Rize?

I don't know no liquor named Rize.

Rize. Come on, get out of here, man. You don't know any booze by the name of Rize?

I don't know no booze named Rize. Get back to your fuckin' tribe before you get hurt. Do me a favor. I don't want no trouble. Okay?

You got an Alcohol Shot Gun?

Get the fuck out of here, man. Get outta here!

SUCK ON THIS!

And no, I don't feel like letting it go.

You should really try correct grammar when attempting to sound haughty and righteous.
