The philosophical conundrum of abandoned beer

Silk-sheeters be gone!

VB has been good to me over the years – I was enjoying a VB longneck both the first time I got drunk, and the first time I met my future wife.

At least its only VB going to waste there, not something actually worth drinking.

+1. Do they ladle the 27 extra tablespoons of sugar before, during or after the cat squats over each bottle?

VB left around like that? Trouble must be brewing.

lol @ tonka call that it’s the drink revive survive station for bogans.

vyberlinav8 – your story about you and your friends – who says stereotyping is dead hey? 😉

Stuck-up snobs knocking my precious VB??? Never!

I’ll bet it’s bogan piss…

Coming back from the coast a few years back we had to stop just after the Clyde so the kiddies could have wee break. I wandered of a little way and found a sixpack of VB under a tree, still in the plastic shrink wrap. It sat in my fridge for a while, then what the hell, I tried them and they were fine. I have always wondered about this, the kids swear that it was a beer tree. How do you misplace a sixpack. Your picture JB brings it back to me. Make of it what you will. Beer tree is good enough for me. However I must add that it has not fruited since.

…You have some messed up friends.

You should see our camping trips…

Maybe the previous owner just realised that beer tastes shit!

I heard it was a evil trap and that if you took it home and drank it you would wake up a short time later in a bath full of ice and a note on your chest saying you need to call an ambulance as you are missing your kidneys….. or not.

If it was a silver bullet or a KB or DA it would be a different story.

I was once at an intimate gathering involving quite a lot of Tooheys Extra Dry (the ones on the clear bottles), and it was discovered that one of the group’s urine was the EXACT same colour as the beer. So… drain the lizard into an empty glass bottle, put the cap back on tight, and voila! a little present that went to the back of the garage fridge for the next group of friends who came round…

Drink it at your own risk. I wouldn’t.

if worried about a wee trap, you could take home, refridgerate, pour into glass, drink if beer (and if you can’t tell by then you won’t notice any other side effects from drinking someone’s urine…)

pity it isn’t a reschs…

A fitting end for a bottle of VB.

Pfft you toffs can have your Zierholz and Wig n Pen. Give me a VB any day of the week. Or even better an MB, the poor mans beer if VB wasn’t already the poor mans beer.

…I actually did try a Zierholz at Pasko Sa Canberra (Christmas celebration at the Philippines Embassy) on the weekend. It was very good.

Deadmandrinking: You forgot step four: fall asleep propped up against a petrol pump.

Sounds like someone is in desperate need of a grog-bog

Drunk, forget beer, stumble off. Mystery solved, folks!

Ooops…

taken I mean.

Was it cold?

It’s a stop revive and survive station for bogans.

But someone’s obviously already stopped and teken the emergency winnie reds.

haha Cameron

Sorry JB but I fail to see the philosophical conundrum. It’s a VB, so it would actually be safer if (as I suspect) the punter who left it there bottled it himself.

It’s Canberra – where everyday is a slow news day!

Cameron it would be best if you kept your ill-informed editorial guesses to yourself.

They’re not ontopic and will lead to time in moderation if they persist.

hehe – just when I was suspecting it was a slow news day, you post an article that confirms it 🙂

I’m with Thumper on this one.

Its a Vomit Bomb! Call the bomb squad!

Maybe it’s an emergency cairn left for some bogan to have a drink on the way home at night?
