Where are all of the good young men?
So basically its the mens fault that you can't find a partner? Got it. You sound just like every self proclaimed "nice guy" who comes on here bemoaning the fact that they can't find a date. Have you ever considered the idea that maybe the problem lies with you? Because it probably does.

These same guys idea of a toolbox is a credit card and Angie’s list, because they would hate to have a shopping trip ruined by changing brake pads on a Saturday.

If I were you I would stop worrying about what the next man does with his life and start focusing on my own. You don't have a lot of time left old timer.

This thread continues to be funnier and funnier. It a good thing to have the ability to make a troll post doesn't discriminate between genders.

I can't even get annoyed at most of the opinionated facts being thrown around some are just too serious for their own good.

Eventually it left the true underground and into the "mainstream underground" (think stores like Urban Outfitters) where it quickly got the reputation of being a hipster beer. Funny enough, it used to be considered a redneck beer.

I myself like it the most out of all the cheap, ****ty beers. It tastes less offensive than Anheuser-Busch's clydesdale ****. It's also cheaper. If I'm getting cheap beer for a party, it's usually a 30-pack of PBR.

I missed it, and in the early 2000s I was raving and dj'ing, as was my husband. We were both active in our scenes. He was a beer snob then just as he is now. I don't know how people give up quality for a fad. I'd rather have nothing than crap.

Well people generally don't drink those beers for the taste. I'll always choose a craft beer (or at least a Yuengling...) when I want something good. When I'm just drinking for drinking's sake, people my age usually just get cheap beer that goes down quickly. Especially if it's gonna be used in a drinking game.

That said, even now I'm usually opting to just get a sixer of some good, strong beer if I want to get tipsy. Which isn't often... I'm over that phase of college life.

Ah, well, back in the day we weren't using beer to get tipsy.

huh?
