I got some old styles today. it's been a long time

who's had an old style recently?

[jalapeño ranch]

I haven’t had Old Style since college 15 years ago. Could go for some crispy bois.

[clouds]

they're hittin just right

one of my favorite bars used to have old style + a big jameson shot for $5. these days you just get 8oz of hard kombucha and to sniff some raiciilla for $17

I'm searching for america and can't find it anywhere

[big zorb]

it's fuckin crazy to me that raicilla and sotol became trendy alcohol

[PROBLEM ATTIC]

I'm searching for america and can't find it anywhere

I think this is something a lot of us are struggling with lately

my best friend jeff uses "easy ridered" as a verb to describe almost getting killed for being weird

"dude i felt like i was gonna get easy ridered the other night, im not goin back there"

[clouds]

he came up with this term after we ate lunch at this restaraunt in arkansas with a sign that said "featured in southern living magazine 1997" or some shit on the sign out front right as church let out

due to a man taking a horrible in the mens room we both used the womens restroom. due to poor signage and being high enough to hunt ducks with rakes we both successively stumbled into the kitchen while looking for the restroom. eyes they were upon us.

we hadnt showered in days and smelled of campfire smoke and blueberry blunts.

by the grace of g*d go weeeee

[clouds]

can 2 fellas get a hot meal round here?

[Merciel]

"high enough to hunt ducks with rakes" is a beautiful turn of phrase

[PROBLEM ATTIC]

I truly believe I dknt live an interesting enough life to be an American

im just gonna use the board as word association game now. in my early 20s i wrap up a backpacking trip in the ozark national forest with a few folks and we decide we need more beer before the "cabin party" we'd reserved.

I drive 45 minutes to the grocery store. sir kin i help yeww? yes maam where is your beer? we dont sell beer. i thought this was a wet county?

it is. but it's a dry town.

today was my nephew's birthday. He would have turned 21, but he passed away almost three years ago when he was 18. I would have been able to invite him to Junior Boys on Friday, but I'm taking my brother instead. then on saturday I'm going to my other nephew's late fiance's funeral/celebration of life. and then it would have been her birthday on monday,she would have turned 22, just missed it. and then it's my other nephew's birthday who lost both of them, and he's turning 22 on tuesday. lot's of deaths and birthdays all at once. I feel like crap.

[clouds]

kid8 i hope you and your brother have the best time you possibly can

i wish i had more on the other stuff but i dunno what there is for that. i havent found anything myself.

I'm truly sorry you have to deal with all this pain kid8. I hope that you and your family can find strength in each other

[kid8]

Thank you, guys. I’m fine. I have a weird relationship with death. It’s not really affecting my life in any grand way. Which is where the dread comes in. Like am I really that numb or apathetic? Dealing with death is skewing my existential crisis towards a really fucked up perspective. The only way I can cope is just to be like “yes, this is something that happens.” And keep on truckin’.

[PROBLEM ATTIC]

Maybe this is just one of the stages you need to be in until you're able to process the loss in a more complicated way

[kid8]

One of them? Is there more?
