    It is interesting though, that the targeted advertisement seem highly based on negative stereotypes. Like it's ripped directly from shitty old movies, sit-coms and such.

    Indeed. I'm just slightly surprised that no actual living person has looked at this and said: "Nah, this shit makes zero sense."

    I think a lot of people do, but everyone has been convinced they are alone in their realization. It's part of the game. We see way less allies than we actually could have. No one is going to advertise a popular awakening

    Yeah, I don't bet, i refuse to use dating apps, but I DO love beer. But i look out for small stuff that I haven't tried before, and usually shoot for local stuff when i travel. Like, I'm not gonna drink a Budweiser if i am at a bar in Detroit. I'm gunning down whatever seasonal Atwater brew i can't get in Ohio, or trying to get my hands on some Black Rock brewery.

    I too love various alcohol beverages. But I don't give a flying fuck about what is advertised.

    If I want good beer, I go to a beer focused bar or micro-brewery and ask for what I'm in the mood for, they usually supply me with whatever I desire. If I'm traveling, I go for anything local. I just can't get myself to "Pull a Vincent" and eat McDonalds if I'm in France.
