I recall years ago being perched upon a stool (no pun) in the Longshot Saloon in San Marcos, Calif (not CA) sipping on my Coors—this was before I finally realized what good beer was.
I became aware that an old broad next to me was watching me sip me beer—she finally informed me that that beer company always advertised and referred to the water they brewed from. She then waited a brief time waiting for that to sink in—pause for effect. By now others had perked up their ears and were listening. She finally made her point, saying that previously had lived near that brewery and regularly had urinated in the river/stream, whatever, that they referred to.
This brought her her earned laughter and smirks from the listeners. I, too, paused for effect, chugged the rest of my beer down and said something to the effect that she had done the water no harm, and, perhaps, even contributed to the taste.
The listeners apparently got a great kick out of all this.
The world is a sh!tty place, folks—get used to it!
