Joke of The Day

 YOU HAVE PURCHASED A BAD BEER WHEN...
10. TV Ads Begin "From the sparkling waters of the Hudson River..."
9. The second you take a sip, your liver fails
8. For some reason, it's sold in the detergent aisle
7. It was actually brewed by Penny Marshall and Cindy Williams
6. Instead of a wagon pulled by Clydesdales, beercompany has a wheelbarrow pushed by a doped-up monkey
5. The company isn't running any sort of sweepstakes, but the underside of the bottle caps all say "Sorry"
4. Tastes more like mountain goat piss than a mountain stream
3. Picture on label is of a guy throwing up
2. It reads "from concentrate"
1. When you crack a couple open on a fishing trip and say, "It doesn't get any better than this," your buddies kill themselves.
