With party season almost upon us, there’s nothing worse than having to wait your turn for the bottle opener. This torturous wait has forced many a genius to find new and creative ways to open their beer bottle. From using the edge of a desk to a door lock or even one’s eye (actually saw this happen once), those old ways pale in comparison knowing that you and 23 of your closest pals can enjoy the fruits of your labour all at once with this 24-bottle opener. While imperfect (listen to those cheers), it’s still better than nothing and should be your next party staple.
Depending how you look at it, vending machines are either really amazing or the bane of your exist. They’re amazing because they pretty much hold the answer to your hunger/junk food craving dilemmas, but they’re the worst when you don’t have any change in your pockets to purchase those oh so sweet delights.
It would be much easier to remember to carry some cash on me if these vending machines sold the following in our hoods (they exist but not near me):
1. Cupcakes
2. Nail Polish
3. Pizza
Google Glass went on limited beta release this week, with a few customers allowed to use the technology for 24 hours.
While I’m still iffy about the idea of having a smartphone on my head, it sure seems like wearing a pair of Google Glasses will enhance any momentous occasion.
Because in the case of YouTube comic Derrick Hannan, St. Paddy’s Day sure seemed like one hell of a ride.
I don’t want to ruin what goes down for him.
But if his adventure is any indication of how Google Glasses works when under the influence, I don’t think Hannan will be asked to test any more technology Google comes out with in the near future…
There’s actually nothing better than a good house party. Provided it’s done correctly, a kegger is a great way to meet people or even get the attention of that special someone. This week’s episode of Talking Sh*t is a how to guide that will help anyone who’s daring enough to throw their own party. Watch our very own staff give pointers on how to party proof your house, scare off douchey guitar players and share their own experiences.
Note: “We’re not encouraging excessive drinking and please make sure you check I.D.” -our lawyers wanted us to post that…
Watch the video here:
Will Ferrell has an awesomely confusing beer commercial with dubstep music but it’s airing only on Sweden’s TV3. In the commercial, a visibly tanned and curly-haired Ferrell opens an Old Milwaukee beer can and joyously shakes it around on the sidewalk. He finishes by giving himself a high five and doing a couple fist pumps by his hip.
The whole thing seems like a personal joke for Ferrell, considering the brand of beer isn’t even available in Sweden. This ad is one of several promoting Old Milwaukee that appeared on YouTube over the last three weeks.
The marketing campaign is kind of brilliant. As the Internet catches on to the randomness of promoting a beer on TV for an audience halfway around the world, the ads are going viral.
Watch it here:
Even though Justin Bieber isn’t enrolled in school right now he’s definitely getting the college experience, indulging in a late night round of beer pong. Although the pic was obtained by TMZ, they’re not sure right now where he was when it all went down. Whether it was Canada or the US is besides the point since it’s illegal to drink in either country (in most places).
While some people might be all “OMG Justin, this is illegal” the biggest thing on my mind is why he’s wearing a backpack inside. AND, what’s inside?
In the past, we’ve been awed by beer-fetching dogs. Not only is it a practical and convenient trick, but it’s a great party skit and leaves your dog feeling rewarded (or I like to think so). There are tons of YouTubers who post videos of their beer-fetching dogs, boasting about their superior skills, without actually showing us how they taught their dog how to perform such a feat.
Finally, we have a helpful instructional video that relays the process of teaching dogs how to get a beer from the fridge.
This is the trick to beat all other tricks, so your Chinese Crested dog can finally have something over the glorious Golden Retriever next door.
Rita Ora’s such a fashionista, we just can’t imagine her wearing hideous matching tracksuits at 13 to get attention from her first love (who ended up being a total dud). She sat down with @Jordans_Life to talk about her first beer and the craziest party she ever went to. At 16, she ended up throwing a flat party at her family home and sh*t went CRAY. Well, you can’t blame her considering her dad owned a wicked pub and had surround sound speakers.
We present our AMAZING supercut of a bunch of our favourite entries from Justin Bieber’s “Girlfriend” contest. We also talk about a girl whose dream of being Tinker Bell was crushed by Disney and finally talk about beer. Do you remember your first sip?
Here’s a guy opening a beer with a chainsaw…. that’s nice. Now let’s go back to our lives. And if you’re in cottage country right now, I don’t recommend trying it unless you have a lot of time on your hands.
It’s hard to prepare for an interview with Hedley. So in this interview, we threw caution to the wind, got a 24 of beer and broadcast the interview live on our USTREAM (andPOP.tv). Eventually Jacob, Dave and @jordans_life ended up talking about hairy legs, their newest music video and more.
I’d obviously find it strage if Hanson were to launch a line or perfumes or handbags, given the fact that they’re girls. So, I guess the manliest form of a money grab would be to launch your own beer.
NME reports the three brothers from Tulsa Oklahoma, who have been making music since the ’90s, will release an Indian pale ale called “MMMhop” next year. It’s obviously named ater their 1997 smash hit “MMMbop”. That song is seriously catchier than anything any cast member of Jersey Shore’s ever gotten.
Drummer Zac Hanson spoke out at the Oxford Union two days ago, saying “it’s vital our fans trust in everything Hanson do. We are soon going to be selling our own beer. I’m not joking – Mmmhop IPA anyone?”
The southern brothers have launched other products in the past, but Zac promises nothing too questions will ever be released under their name.
“We have a board game and even a record player to play our last record on, but we will never make dolls, lunch boxes or toothbrushes that play our songs for example,” he says. Hallelujah!
If anything, I hope Hanson’s beer tastes better than Dan Akroyd’s red wine.
Demi Lovato tuned 19 today, and what better way to celebrate than a good old beer run. But wait – she’s underage.
Well luckily Demi was with an older dude (presumably he’s 21) who help them score the booze.
However, wasn’t Demi recently in rehab? Well yes – however TMZ reports her people say it wasn’t for drug or alcohol abuse.
Happy Birthday Demi!
