A beer cozy.ETA: Like all damn 'mericans would.What do you call the foam things that go around canned beers?I've never heard "hugger"? But I did reread (note: Sacamano) when I saw "coozy" over whether than was correct spelling. Is this accepted nomenclature?
Unnecessary if you're drinking with the proper sense of urgency.What do you call the foam things that go around canned beers?
How do you pronounce? As written?
What the hell is going on here? Seems like I'm reading a book, but I'm forced to skip every other chapter.Pathetic. Incredibly pathetic. And waaaaaaaaay beneath you, I thought.ETA: In keeping with the way you have changed, perhaps? Very sad for you.Now you guys see what I was saying earlier today? Some women (maybe of a certain age) are not going to approve. This happens and they'll try to keep their boyfriends/husbands from going out with their GB Stu.
Women are definitely all about the poopin'.Well, you are a woman.Oh, damn. Look what I went and did.I can't help myself!I think you just pooped another band name!!!
I'm not entirely sure. I do know that (1) in July/August of 2011, we'll be drinking Oregon wines, in Oregon, and (2) Sacamano approves. So I'm good.What the hell is going on here?

Go visit the insane former heroin junky turned father of the year bartender at one of the hotels downtown. GM can tell you which. Good times. I'm sure he can give yuou good recommendations on wineries, too, but if you want a second opinion drop me a line.I'm not entirely sure.

Fixedoh, and
#1 Koozie or Cozy............ either way, the foam thing you put around a beer is pronounced the same way as the last name of Boston Celtics legend Bob Cousy.#2 Bobby Sac is correct, it is unnecessary.
I say "coozy" when I arrive at the party. Host: OMG, can't believe you're here. Now the party can begin!YSR: Can I have a "coozy"?

and yes, 
Now imagine they're white.
Yeah, me too.Dear New Orleans 1993I'm sorry I puked all over the place in your cab but I just couldn't pace myself with the free Heineken.SLBDear New Orleans 1991-2002Uhhh, you know what. Nevermind. It's all good.See you in 3 weeks,GMOoh! Ooh! I have one of these!Dear New Orleans circa 2002
Huh. I read your question to Mr. krista4 and he said, "Do you mean a beer cozy"? (rhymes with, um "cozy") That's the same way I've always heard it. Chicago thing? Midwest thing? Northeast thing? Something that somehow just affected two people who happened to marry one another? Dunno.
Hold on here....are you marrying this couple or friends with them?
Like, they changed to black?
lol1 neighbor was white and moved, 2 of them were white and had their house foreclosed on.
Sorry, GB. Englishes are funny.
OK, maybe you're not too drunk.It's a good try, but you shouldn't take what I said earlier so literally. Except, perhaps, the part where I said I had lost respect for a while... I don't think that should bother you, as you know you are making a choice in your actions, and you definitely have made a very conscious choice each step along the way. With each decision to pursue a married woman, or a virgin, or whatever titillates the masses, you are deciding which kind of person you are. There is absolutely no way I'd discourage you from this, since (1) my opinion doesn't mean squat, and (2) I'd be subject to the pitchforks myself if you held back and didn't post for the enjoyment of the masses because of my opinion. But you wish to dismiss my opinion on the basis that I say I'm drunk?I helped you out as I did many others when they were getting into dating after a while. You probably didn't need it at all! But still I had a desire to help you through what was presumably a difficult time. I don't need or want thanks for that. But of course I'm slightly disappointed that someone who seemed in need of assistance is instead a major cad that I wouldn't wish my worst enemy on. And as I mentioned, the inconsistency in treatment between men and women is ridiculous, though not unexpected in this forum and certainly not your fault. You are simply, at this point, the most glaring evidence of inconsistency in this realm that we have available (leaving out, I suppose, the person whose name you wanted removed).I hope this is not difficult for you to understand.
That was my assumption after you appeared pretty quick to put words in my mouth.You're certainly entitled to your opinion and much of it is fair criticism. I'll hesitantly attempt to clarify a few things in my defense anyway. I'll number my posts in hopes that Woz will take me off the hook by somehow making this thread about him.1. There was one married woman. I think I saw her three or four times. She was 21 and the marriage appeared destined to end before the 1st anniversary. And the guy was clearly a huge d-bag. Doesn't make it right, of course, but maybe a little less pitchfork worthy than what some of our ifriends have been on the other end of. 2. That's not a road I plan to travel down again. Plenty of single women available. There are a lot of married women out that are trouble, but dancing is as far as I'll go. And yes, I'm sure there are also a lot of married men that are trouble, but they don't seem to be interested. 3. Am I not allowed to date a virgin? She isn't going to have sex until she's married. I knew this and dated her anyway, because I actually liked her. Must be some bad intentions assumed here that were not in play. Otherwise, I'm shuked. We're actually still friends. We hung out with some mutual friends Tuesday night. Everything is cool.4. Everything else seems like pretty standard dating for a single person. I'm not in a rush to become exclusive with someone but would if the right someone came along. Maybe there's a line between "actively dating" and "major cad" that I'm not aware of. 5. I did need help back in the heyday of the idating thread. Probably still do. Who doesn't? I appreciated the help and have mentioned your assistance to others starting out. I've also tried to pay it forward for others getting back out there.Sorry to disappoint Krista, but "major cad that I wouldn't wish my worst enemy on" seems a little harsh. Especially if your worst enemy is hot.

Mostly in agreement and more than that, don't feel like this thread is the proper forum (though I acknowledge I'm the one who put it here). As to #4, which is the crux of the issue, it seems...it seems there is a huge difference between "standard" dating and what you do in terms of posting pictures, tales, etc. You wouldn't have the reputation, which you clearly revel in, if you didn't. Now again I'll get the pitchforks if I dissuade you from that, so I will not.Unfortunately, despite your reasonable post above, you evidenced another viewpoint with the "see, guys" post I quoted previously. Really sad and highly unusual for you.OK, maybe you're not too drunk.It's a good try, but you shouldn't take what I said earlier so literally.

Woah... that must not have come out right. Didn't mean to offend you.Acknowledgment of age is always risky but seemed relevant, since perspectives/attitudes seem to change with time. Maybe not.EDIT: Was mostly just trying (unsuccessfully) to tie this in with my post about last night in an attempt to justify my ridiculed complaint. Connection was admittedly flimsy.Pathetic. Incredibly pathetic. And waaaaaaaaay beneath you, I thought.ETA: In keeping with the way you have changed, perhaps? Very sad for you.Now you guys see what I was saying earlier today?

Guess the extra bottle of wine at dinner was a bad idea.

It's a really smart thing to do, but it just feels so morbid. Plus, my parents know my fear of flying, so I'm sure there is a "what a drama queen" aspect to them getting this email.His parents, however, are likely thinking, "oooh! more stuff!!!"
I hate to self-medicate (who am I kidding, I love to self-medicate), but I've already burst into tears once this a.m.Alcohol is your friendit's really the only way to fly.I get slightly self conscious having my kids watching daddy throw back 5-10 screwdrivers at 7 in the morning, but they're used to it by now.
so I"m pretty sure I'll hit the booze shortly.
I think she's dead, man.I'm never leaving. Can't wait for sober/hung-over krista to show up...
