I can see this blog being a powerful tool for curbing alcoholism. posted by EatTheWeak at 9:56 AM on June 19, 2008 [3 favorites]
Hooray for mean-spiritedness. posted by Dave Faris at 9:57 AM on June 19, 2008
Great pictures. Annoying captions. Sometimes you just have to let the snark write itself. posted by bicyclefish at 10:07 AM on June 19, 2008
Some of those pics are cringe-a-licious. posted by everichon at 10:10 AM on June 19, 2008
Well, yes. Anyway, in the spirit of things, here's what I consider one of my finest party photos. That's me on the right and the not-very-blushing bride is my friend Lina. Taken out of context it looks like we're fighting, but honestly, we're just screaming along to the music. posted by soundofsuburbia at 10:13 AM on June 19, 2008 [1 favorite]
It's, yeah. Some good sensibility in the choice of photos; it's a nice mix, and fun to go through. The writing feels like a bad Jezebel audition or something.
But the main thing is that holy shit that's awesome. If you're going to do something as stupid as beerbongery, do it right. posted by cortex at 10:15 AM on June 19, 2008

sounds, it looks like you guys were practicing klingon on eachother. posted by lester's sock puppet at 10:29 AM on June 19, 2008
If nothing else, this blog is further proof that there are millions of Americans (possibly Canadians also) who should never ever be photographed except for government IDs. posted by Burhanistan at 10:34 AM on June 19, 2008
"Pink razr phone"? I see the "iPhone" demographic all over that picture. posted by Zambrano at 10:46 AM on June 19, 2008
The fact that I haven't been on that site yet is bewildering to me.
Well, he's actually, you know, holding a pink flip-phone. I can't tell you if it's a razr or not, but, yeah. posted by cortex at 10:58 AM on June 19, 2008
The snark about this photo is basically "ha ha, the guys are more interested in the beer and each other than the underwear girl."
But if you look at the flikr photoset it comes out of, it's pretty clear that indeed, the attention is not on the underwear girl. "Ha ha you're so GAY" isn't quite as funny when, in fact, you are so gay. posted by Forktine at 11:02 AM on June 19, 2008 [2 favorites]
Guess I've got my answer, then. posted by uncleozzy at 11:03 AM on June 19, 2008
I'm rocking an "inconclusive" on that one. Daughter passed out in presence of not-passed-out young man in a party context is something I that I think qualifies as a race-neutral paternal vision of terror, but I guess the hypothetical fathers in this case could be racists. posted by cortex at 11:15 AM on June 19, 2008
Whether racist or not, it's certainly sexist. posted by DU at 11:22 AM on June 19, 2008
Is there a version without the douchey comments? It's like watching "America's Funniest Home Videos," except if the videos were still photos, and the fart/slide whistle noises plus unfunny voiceover were replaced with some anonymous asshole insulting strangers in really crude and moronic ways. posted by kittens for breakfast at 11:24 AM on June 19, 2008
Is this post a wee bit racist? Or is it me?
No. It implies men are boring. It's sexist. posted by elwoodwiles at 11:25 AM on June 19, 2008

Yeah. the pics are funny, but the comments leave me with the distinct impression that this guys does this because he's the type of guy nobody would want around at a party. posted by jonmc at 11:28 AM on June 19, 2008 [2 favorites]

Depending on the inner diameter of the hose, how much they filled the funnel (if they didn't even fill the hose that's just incredibly lame), and whether or not they let the beer go flat, I calculated that that beer bong could range from impossible for mere humans to a mere impressive veneer.
But yeah, beer bongs are pretty lame in general. posted by TheOnlyCoolTim at 11:31 AM on June 19, 2008
Apparently I wasn't invited to any of those parties. posted by Pollomacho at 11:34 AM on June 19, 2008
Yikes, I've got a lowbrow streak a mile wide, but I do not see any redeeming value in this trashy blog. posted by madamjujujive at 11:34 AM on June 19, 2008

Man, if there were one word I'd love to banish from his vocabulary, it's "sluts." It's like listening to the stereotypical basement-dwelling blogger slag on all the girls who won't talk to him because of his BO and neckbeard. posted by klangklangston at 11:50 AM on June 19, 2008 [5 favorites]
Can we keep "sluthammer?" I don't know what it means but I don't think I could live without it. posted by stupidsexyFlanders at 11:53 AM on June 19, 2008
He also needs to drink more. posted by jonmc at 11:53 AM on June 19, 2008
We can keep "sluthammer" if it turns out it's like a Norweigian word that doesn't mean anything like what you would guess. posted by cortex at 11:58 AM on June 19, 2008

It'd be better with an umlaut. over every vowel. slüthämmër. posted by jonmc at 12:01 PM on June 19, 2008 [4 favorites]
I dunno, man, I went to this new smallish-chain-bar-and-grill around the corner from me last night after we played volleyball--this is a Wednesday night, in what's ostensibly a family restaurant--and there were a vast number of young ladies there who could really only be described as "sluts." Well, "skanks," maybe.
Never have so many aging men been made happy by the air conditioning being set just a bit too chilly.
The point is, that's a word we might need. posted by uncleozzy at 12:01 PM on June 19, 2008

did you score with any of 'em? posted by jonmc at 12:04 PM on June 19, 2008
No, but I totally have a buddy who did, really, I swear. posted by uncleozzy at 12:11 PM on June 19, 2008
Well, I suppose I'm in the minority. I've been reading this blog for a few weeks now and I think the commentary is totally hilarious. posted by josher71 at 12:12 PM on June 19, 2008
FWIW, if you go back through the posts it appears that the author is female (and definitely on the young/immature side). posted by D.C. at 12:26 PM on June 19, 2008
No? Then how slutty could they have been?
*rimshot* posted by jonmc at 12:32 PM on June 19, 2008
They'd have to have been pretty slutty to be giving out rimshots. posted by uncleozzy at 12:41 PM on June 19, 2008 [4 favorites]

I sincerely hope I never attend a party featuring bedpans. posted by tommasz at 1:34 PM on June 19, 2008
Where can I get pants that describe EXACTLY the situation I'm in at the given moment? It's like they're made of some futuristic substance that works like hyper-color, but can change to describe exactly what you are doing: drinking beer and looking nuts.
Except instead of BEER NUTS mine would say YOGURT BORED.
In dire situations I can open a non-twistoff with my teeth, but that's not as sexy. posted by TheOnlyCoolTim at 8:26 PM on June 19, 2008
In norwegian 'slut' means something like 'end' or '(something is) over'. It's what they put at the end of movies and books. So a sluthammer would be the hammer of finality. posted by Catfry at 3:01 AM on June 20, 2008 [1 favorite]
Well, good on him for ignoring our advice.
I really want to make a comment in that thread - if only to underline that I'm not the poster. posted by Jofus at 3:39 AM on June 20, 2008
you know, sometimes people just create blogs to have fun, no entertain perfect strangers. Quit hating on the commentary, you just sound pretentious. It's funny, PeeDee. posted by BlackStrapMolasses at 6:37 PM on June 20, 2008

Having been the drunken teenager at many a party, I can't find it within me to hate on other drunk teenagers. A lot of the commentary feels mean-spirited (some of it's funny though) but I have to admire a flickrsurfer who can dive in there and come out with a picture as glorious as the man with a zebra between his legs in front of the psychedelic quilt. That's a quality find right there. posted by Kattullus at 11:35 PM on June 20, 2008
I meant to link to this blogpost as an example of one that made me laugh. Also, if not for this blog I'd never have found this glorious picture of Morrissey. Some of the pictures lead to interesting flickr streams. posted by Kattullus at 11:51 PM on June 20, 2008
