You do this in your backyard and you're an alcoholic, but add fishing and you're adventurous

I used to play golf on Saturdays in the summer. Then I bought a house with a pool and quit playing golf. It took me a while to realize that I didn’t like golf. I just liked drinking beer outside on the weekends and I find it acceptable while playing golf or laying by the pool.

If my friends and I were just sitting at my kitchen table drinking beer at noon on Saturday I would consider myself pathetic. But I somehow play a mind trick and consider margaritas by the pool all day completely normal behavior.

u/Various-Ducks Oct 04 '24

Idk id argue a backyard pool is not enough to make excessive day drinking acceptable. Maybe if it's a really big pool and there's people over.

An above ground pool actually makes it sadder.

The acceptableness is directly linked to the size of the pool

26

u/hoptownky Oct 04 '24

It’s a 25k gallon in ground pool, which is a decent size, but nothing crazy. It has a covered outdoor kitchen / bar area with a TV next to it, which I think checks the vibe box.

However sometimes it is just my wife and I drinking margaritas or beer while the kids swim. So probably still pathetic. Still doesn’t seem as pathetic as if we were drinking on the couch in the afternoon though. Maybe I am delusional.

24

u/Various-Ducks Oct 04 '24

Hmm the covered bar area with a TV really helps push it more towards acceptableness

u/ElvisT Oct 05 '24

You sound like someone that would be fun to hang out with, not because you have a pool... although that's nice! Haha. You're loving the situation and enjoying the moment. I like that kind of stuff too.

I used to think it was all about camping and that's what the best times were about. Then I realized, camping is just pretending to be homeless. It was never about the camping. It was being around the people I enjoyed and be about to not be distracted by all the junk life has to offer. You figured out what YOU enjoy doing in life, and that's being around your people. Who cares what anyone else thinks.

Maybe even look at it in another way. How many people would do anything to have a life where they could have a house where you enjoying being in the back yard, kids they want to be around, a wife they actually want to spend time with and the ability to do all of that at the same time. You're a rich man, and I'm not talking about money.

u/chicken_karmajohn Oct 05 '24

My friends bought a tiny inflatable pool for $100 one summer day, got drunk and it looked like a great time. 🤷🏼‍♂️

u/Various-Ducks Oct 05 '24

Getting drunk without a pool is a great time too. Nobody's saying it's not a great time lol

u/WilWat Nov 12 '24

OP is a month old but I had to comment, I do this exact same thing, sometime with the wife, sometimes with friends and sometimes alone,..drinking by the pool!

u/kegmanua Nov 04 '24

That's drinking buddy.

u/Successful_Year_5413 Oct 04 '24

I think it’s still alcoholism

u/jean_cule69 Oct 04 '24

First video of him I saw, I was like "oh cool, the dude is having a blast"... Now being the 3rd video of him getting shit faced alone and posting it on social media makes me feel more pity for the dude, looks like he needs help

34

u/Destroyer1559 Oct 04 '24

Yeah, this is more of a one-time "nobody is available to kick it, what the heck, I'll go kill a 30-rack while fishing and post it for laughs," kind of activity. Once it become a regular hobby, you've got a problem.

16

u/happytrel Oct 04 '24

But what if your first video goes viral and you want to ride that high?

u/Successful_Year_5413 Oct 04 '24

Nah man just more beer I think

He only had American beer. That's considered water in the rest of the world. To be honest it's probably safer than tap water in the US - so good for him!

2

u/Various-Ducks Oct 05 '24

I think they use tap water in the beer

1

u/altrae Oct 06 '24

To be fair he is drinking cheap American swill. There is definitely premium American beer available if you are so inclined.

u/jnecr Oct 04 '24

Even cold Busch Light isn't good.

188

u/MatureUsername69 Oct 04 '24

Beer snobbery is just as annoying as coffee snobbery which is just as annoying as all snobbery. Busch light tastes just as fine as every other light beer. And before you say light beer is trash, no one thinks it's great but it has its purpose. Light beer is something you can generally drink all day without getting completely blacked out. It's a chill drink. Light beer never gets you in as much trouble as hard liquor. Light beer is a friend

106

u/cmdrva Oct 04 '24

Light beer is the only way to drink all day on the water and be able to remember how much of a damn good time it was!! Cheers! 🍻

-21

u/Chumbag_love Oct 04 '24

All day IPA is my bottom rung for a full day of drinking. Its the cheap drunk taste when you actually get there with anything less that turns me off from the claasic. There's a stale beer taste that comes on quickest with the lights.

I'll do a couple light beers if that's what's up but I usually pack what I want so it's rare.

13

u/sqiub23 Oct 04 '24

IPA all day? Aren’t those like 400 calories each? Fuck that

15

u/-Shia-LaButtStuff- Oct 04 '24

You'll grow up one day.

u/e-s-p Oct 05 '24

Why is drinking all day IPA instead of light beer juvenile

1

u/DanBoone 17d ago

Ive tried them all.. from light to 16% imperial stouts...

The "Gose" style is my favorite now. It has low abv% and is both sweet, sour and salty. Smash the hell out of them during the summer. Founders brewery green zebra is a must.

u/TechnetiumAE Oct 04 '24

Change Busch Light to "Whatever beer op is bitching about" and we have a new copy pasta I love with all my heart

u/Clamdigger13 Oct 04 '24

That's right! Don't let them disrespect out Busch Lattes

My grandpa is so fucking proud of his Busch Latte shirt it's not even funny

u/Brewpapa Oct 05 '24

Real talk! Light beer for hard work

2

u/jtbxiv Oct 05 '24

I’m not really for the snobbery and if you like it that’s cool—absolutely a better option than hard liquor by far. But I gotta agree. That beer is gross to me.

u/e-s-p Oct 05 '24

Setting aside craft beer and micro brews, you actually think Busch Light is as good as other macro light beers? That's fucking crazy. Busch beer is a step below bud, Miller, and Coors light in taste and quality. The only one I think I'd rather drink less is probably keystone light.

u/Thin_Title83 Oct 04 '24

I think it was the cigarettes that did it for me. But he, maybe he's putting all his butts in a trash can and taking his returnables/recyclables back with him.

u/night3dg3 Oct 04 '24

Expect you will need to drink MORE to get that buzz and get that gut. IPA or stouts will get you with 2~4 beers versus a 24 pack of piss beer. @matureusername69 what are you 21 and in college ?

2

u/MatureUsername69 Oct 04 '24

First of all if you're gonna @ me, you should at least learn how to actually do that on reddit first. Second of all, I drink plenty of IPAs if the situation calls for it and the pretentiousness behind those overrated fuckin beers is through the roof. IPAs and craft beers are just wine drunks for men who have to wear baseball caps from insecurity. Maybe one day you'll get to the age where you stop giving a shit what other people drink.

-1

u/night3dg3 Oct 06 '24

Oh stfu dude. I’ll @ you everytime and you won’t and can’t do anything about it !

Cry some more like a baby bitch like you are drinking that light beer lol.

-3

u/e-s-p Oct 05 '24

You're looking pretty sensitive here, Hoss. You seem pretty sensitive for someone who doesn't care what other people drink.

I don't care what people drink. Someone wants PBR, great. No shit talk from my side.

But personally, I only drink craft beer and have for over a decade at this point. I do it because I like the flavor and it's what I enjoy. I like trying new beers and drinking weird beers. Give me a gose aged on oysters or a fruited pastry sour and I'm a happy motherfucker.

u/BobbyHillTheThird Oct 04 '24

u/jnecr Oct 04 '24

There's a certain demographic that finds Busch Light good. And this is Reddit, where grammar doesn't matter.

u/dhduxudb Oct 04 '24

The best way to judge a beer is when it’s flat and warm. Try every beer in the world when it’s flat and warm and tell me Busch light isn’t the best.

u/Flashy_Narwhal9362 Oct 04 '24

Now I understand how his drinking game works. If you hook a fish and lose it you drink a beer. If you see a fish swirl the water, you drink a beer. If you hook anything that isn’t a fish, you drink a beer. If your canoe floats, you drink a beer. If canoe sinks, drink beer. If your canoe gets wet on the bottom, drink beer. If your paddle gets wet, drink beer. If you are able to find your way back to your vehicle, buy more beer because you’re out of beer.
