This month’s installment of the Session is hosted by Nate Dawg at Booze, Beats & Bites. Apparently, the topic is: Drinking alone at the pub. However, after first reading the announcement and thinking about a post for a couple days, in my head it became drinking alone, in general. Oops. Oh well, might as well play to the English-held stereotype that Americans have no pub culture.
I have to say, this struck me as a potentially depressing topic; but as with most things in life, I managed to not take it seriously. So, without further adieu, I give you: The Top 5 Reasons to Drink Alone.
NOTE: Yes, I know what the Green Day song in the background is really about. Also, in fairness, I ripped off the boozing teddy bear idea from one of my favorite blogs: liquorstorebear.
Dude, that was awesome. (You almost got upstaged there, though. That koala is definitely an animal to be reckoned with.)
I reblogged it; hope you don’t mind. It made me feel…not so alone.
He is grizzled. Thanks for the re-blog. Interestingly, even though he is a marsupial, your fur appears to be quite similar.
I don’t know how to take that.
HaHa, having a koala bear as teddy bear agrees with SoundEagle from Australia!
Your humour is appreciated; and SoundEagle very much prefers to bottle and drink your wit rather than your beer . . . .
Reblogged this on Liquorstore Bear and commented:
Check it out! Another beer-loving animal. Must-see movie.
Too funny & this what I’ve beer saying to my friends!! I HAD to share this! Now I don’t feel so alone!
Thanks. Glad I could help.
Well done! I really felt sympathy for the Koala character. Great directing job getting that depth of emotion from him. And points for not going the obvious (and cliche) George Thorogood direction on the music.
As for your assignment. I think you did the right thing as the original premise was flawed from the git-go. I’m sure someone would point out that with it’s over abundance of beer culture seeping from it’s walls, that it’s technically impossible to drink alone in an English pub. That only happens in American bars filled with unknowledgable, fad driven American “craft” beer drinkers.
Ug. I misused “it’s” twice in one comment. Good thing I’m not writing reports today.
Don’t sweat it. I only judge Ding’s grammar mistakes.
Yeah, I thought the Green Day song fit much better with the tempo of the video. I was thinking the same thing, though. I felt like I couldn’t use the George Thorogood song, but because of its ubiquity, I couldn’t get it out of my head when trying to think of other songs.
And don’t feel sorry for that mangy koala, he was trying to take what was rightfully mine!
Well done, sir.
Thanks!
Quality!
Thanks. Glad you liked it.
Excellent!
Maybe Barry can come on holiday to the UK sometime and hang out with some pub cats
Barry appreciates it, but he has a pretty serious case of mange. He would probably be quarantined at his port of entry.
Another fantastic video my friend and you are going to be the star of MMH tomorrow.
Nice! Thanks! I hear fart jokes totally kill on Monday mornings.
That is what I’m hoping for.
Off-topic, but you NEED to be on Triberr. Go check it out. I can get you into at least one really great Tribe, probably a few.
I saw you mention it once. I looked at it and was confused. I’m easily confused, though. I will check it out again. I was just worried that if I became part of a tribe I would have to wear a yarmulke.
Cheers for posting mate.
Video really made me laugh!
Thanks! Glad you liked it! Thanks again for hosting the Session. You were a good host, and got a nice write-up posted swiftly.
Cheers buddy. Tried to do the roundup as efficiently as possible… it’s long though haha!
Just heard of you through Jed, and you have a great site here, glad to know about you. Love your beerbecue gravatar image.
Thanks. I drew the pig and turned him into a graphic. Then I had the readers name him. So now Snouty “Chet” McSnouty is the proud beerbecue mascot. Thanks for dropping by!
love that!
