HALLANDALE, FL–Randy Streeter, a 32-year-old sales associate at Guitar Center, has a different anecdote for every brand of alcohol."Oh, man, Malibu. That takes me back," said Streeter, browsing the shelves of a liquor store while picking up a bottle of wine for a dinner party. "At Mardi Gras one year, me and my buddy Mo got totally smashed on that stuff at Pat O'Brien's.
Streeter, who said his "hardcore drinking days are mostly behind [him]," remains a fount of wisdom on the inebriating powers, relative merits, and after-effects of such brands as Jameson's Irish whiskey, J&B scotch, and Jose Cuervo Gold tequila."Drinking tequila is like playing with fire: It warms you up nice, but if you're not careful, you get burned," Streeter said.
Continuing to browse the liquor store's shelves, Streeter noticed a bottle of Jägermeister, which inevitably reminded him of another tale."Oh, man, Jäger," said Streeter, shaking his head. "Graduation week at the University of South Florida is the beer blast of all time, and the guys and I were mixing Jägermeister with vodka for the crazy, mellow drunk it gives you. They say there's opium in it–or there used to be, at least–and deer's blood.
Not all of Streeter's stories function as cautionary tales. Noticing a bottle of Bombay Sapphire behind the store counter, he recalled a wonderful, long-ago experience with the premium gin."Back in '91, I was working at this True Value over in Hialeah. On my very last day there, just before quitting time, the guys surprised me with this really expensive bottle of Bombay Sapphire," Streeter said. "We all went in the back of the store and finished off the whole thing.
Streeter went on to note that Bombay Sapphire and other "top-shelf stuff" would never cause a hangover unless the drinker were abusing it."Hangovers, now, that's a whole other topic," Streeter said. "There's a bunch of stuff you shouldn't do, like mix booze and beer. Then there are all the different cures, like spicy Mexican food and stuff. Actually, that reminds me of the time my buddy and I accidentally discovered the magic cold-calzone-and-Dr.
Llb
So true!
1st ya godda build a still, then ya find some grains and a hole bunch of sugar and stuff and ya - - - -
His stories lack only one detail. A story.

Classy
Hmmm, kinda like Forrest Gump, with an enlarged liver.

'University of South Florida' lol
Is that DougDeMuro
Is this not the American Dream?
The real way to respond to this is to tell your own story. Bailey’s. It was so painfully obvious I was underage at Rocky’s in Toledo when I ordered Bailey’s on ice bc it was the only thing I had ever drunk till then. And yet she gave it to me. Years later I still feel guilty?
Oh shit. I totally do this.
This is more truth than anything
There are two wolves inside of you: one who drinks in the morning and one who drinks in the evening. You are an alcoholic
At least more diverse stuff to remember later on than just working, paying rent and getting old.
🤣
That is a great man indeed
According to the story, he’s 32, presumably born in 1988, and he worked for True Value in 1991.
Damn, theonion works even on the 4thofJuly2020 ?!
I like this man

Lol this dude looks like a fuckin scrub who still slams shots of black licorice liqueur to be the life of the party herb
Legends have stories!
'Is that Wild Irish Rose?! Whew! Reminds me of this one time I got locked in a porta potty at Coachella'
Iconic 🥺
I tried O’douls once but it didn’t really do anything.
The key is to order non-specifically to avoid those stories.
