Yeah, I have had other Pilsners, I'm not sure what brand it is, they just call it 'Pilsner'. Its actually one of the cheapest beers here, but I like it (for what it is).

I haven't had Blue since I was a kid (well like 16 anyways), but it wasn't great then. Still, its better than Bud or probably Coors (never had it). I think the only Coors we get up here is Coors Lite. Its only 3.5% or something useless like that (isn't that still strong for American beer standards?).

To me (and most people I know), beers like (Molson) Canadian and Kokanee are pretty weak flavored. You would pretty much drink them cause they are cheap and get you drunk.

I like full flavored beer, but many of the Irish imports are a little too bitter for me. I also don't really like my beer to drink like a meal (Guinness and some locals). Next time I'm down in the Seattle area (next live show that doesn't come here), I'll have to sample a few of the aforementioned locals.



Yeah, Blue ain't the greatest. :D

Hell no 3.5% isn't strong by our standards man! Some of the beer I drink has 7-9% ABV.

I found a place in my neighborhood that sells Kokanee. I'm going to grab some this weekend and try it.

Dude, if you like full flavor without tasting like roast beef you would probably love Anchor Steam. It's awesome. That + Fat Tire (both are Amber, my favorite type of beer for the most part). PM me before you go to Seattle next and I'll get ya a laundry list of beers to try :D. Anyway, I'm going to track down some of your canadian beers and try them. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

Sometimes you have to sacrifice. What would you say if AMD released a new rev that got power down to 89W?

Pedantic or not it's reaching your posts. :cry: He's already +3000 posts. Sometimes I think he posts to reach the higher number of posts so people will think he knows something. :roll:

AMD sucks so badly...



Link?

BTW, your statement means they are bad at sucking.
Very lame. Go to school.

Hes right, that is not a double negitive.

AMD [subject] sucks [verb] so badly [negitive adverb].


To do something badly is to not do it well. It has nothing to do with a double negative but the use of an adverb in place of an adjective.
Let's see how long we can quote this.

Yep, and conversely, I have met many smart people that don't test well and thus don't do well with higher education.

Exactly... we pay taxes on our income, then we pay sales tax to companies that have to pay income taxes, etc. etc.

Too bad our government is so dam stupid with their money.

That's all fine and well, but you're not taking into account acceptable slang. Example: when women say "I want you so badly" or something, what do you think they are saying?

A: They do want you.
B: They do not want you.

Even though the English doesn't really make sense, it's slang. Know what I mean?

So, I will go with you on the fact that my statement "go to school" was a bit unwarranted. Sorry about that.

bump for post count whorage.

And we already did the nested quote thing to death. At some point it breaks down and then fun ends. What was that topic DaSick? It was some guy complaining we quote too much I think.
