    So ever since I started working at my current job (big car rental company), whenever I'd walk from my car to the building (the yard is between the employee parking and the office, so it is about a 5 min walk), I used to always smell this sweet, bready smell. Wasn't a bad smell, but it always bothered me what it was. I thought maybe it was a cleaning agent the guys used to clean the cars.

    So finally I asked a co-worker what it was. Turns out it's from the Molson plant that is around the corner from us. When the wind blows a certain way, it waifs over to us. Kinda cool.

    Too bad beer tastes like fucking ass. Seriously, why can't beer taste like it looks? Man was I disappointed when I first tried it years and years ago. Seeing it on tv, you think it will taste kinda sweet and whatnot.

    No fucking way.

    "I thought it was implied since we all talked about playing a different game"
    "we put in 3 hours of work for every game you play"
    "we just wanted to try something different"
    "if you guys want to try something different, you should let us know before hand so that I don't waste time. I modeled my entire week around D&D"

    Yeah I think last year they tacked on extra 2 hundo on our bill for that shit for like 4 days. A taxi looks to be about 60 bucks one way, but my car will remain at my condo and thus I don't have to worry about dents and shit from parking stooges.

    That was sold as the contour here. The tail lights don't quite match but it adds another car to the list of cars that look really damn close but are not quite it.

    I'm fairly sure it's a Ford and with that video it's probably the best you're gonna get. Was the badge just a gate badge or part of a proper access control system?

    Possibly a ford focus sedan? 2005_Ford_Focus_ZX4_SE.jpg

    Except Yuengling, which is a good low-end beer in a green bottle.

    I once had Corona that hadn't been exposed to light since it was bottled.

    It was surprisingly good.

    Mostly because every other Corona I've ever had tasted like a skunk crawled in the bottle and shat itself.

    Yep. If it's a midrange hotel and they fuck you on parking then they will fuck you for everything else. On higher end hotels they just like to shaft on parking. Sometimes. It's to catch business travelers on expense accounts.
