Beer Data

These are a few of my favorite things.
As we all know, the goal of beer-drinking is to get drunk.  But here in America, people are sometimes so preoccupied with not getting fatter, that it gets in the way of their beer-drinking.  Supposedly, this is why light beers were invented.

However, it is my belief that light beer, since it is typically lower in alcohol, defeats it's own purpose by requiring you to drink more of it to get drunk.  For this reason, i have collected the above data.  The table includes some of my favorite beers, in addition to all the shitty "frat beers" that people waste their time drinking.  The beers are sorted in descending alcohol to calorie ratio, i.e. drunk to fat ratio.

The results are kind of upsetting, but telling.  I've also been trying to collect the data necessary to compile a alcohol to cost component (i.e. drunk to poor ratio), but this is more difficult with the fluctuating and varying costs of beer.  If anyone knows where i can find the MSRP of beers, that would be invaluable data.

Also, if anyone knows the caloric content of Old Rapsutin Stout, Stella Artois, Estrella Damm, or Warsteiner, please enlighten me.

Do you need juice!?

Have you ever said to yourself, "i should eat more fruits and vegetables...but Whataburger sure is great"?  Me too! Well, my mom bought my cat and i vitamins for Christmas, which i think is her way of saying i am unhealthy.  My Polish co-worker advocates eating primarily uncooked meats, and admonishes, "legumes are pretty much the worst thing you can eat."  Netflix keeps reminding me that everytime i eat a hamburger, i am LITERALLY RUINING THE WORLD.  And sad people in podcasts keep telling my passive ears that "exercise and eating right" will miraculously cure even clinical depression. One thing i can say though is that plants look awfully healthy.  So...i should eat more of them...or any of them!  You already know what a passion i have for finding and purchasing the cheapest food .  But how do i consume it all before it spoils, when i often am gone at work 14 hours a day!?  My recent acquisition of a refurbished juicer helps!  And this' w...

KITTENS! Inspired by...KITTENS!

Here's a fun sentence:  since i got laid off, i've been able to fulfill one of my longtime dreams.  Fostering kittens!  I've always wanted to, but (depending on age) they need to be weighed and fed like 4 times a day.  So it can be challenging to foster if you have to go into an office, even one day a week like at my previous job.  But now, between filling out job applications and going on interviews, i'm raising America's next generation of purrfect little fur beasts! Say hello to the J28 litter!  Meet (in alphabetical order) Jack, Jack O Lantern, Jackson, Jemima, Jerome, and Jezebel!  This' only my second time fostering kittens, so the good people at Austin Pets Alive! only saddled me with two of these sweet baby angles--Jezebel (whom i'm calling Lil) and Jack O Lantern (whom i'm calling Loop). These nicknames came about because i've named all my cats after sub shops:  Blimpie , HoneyLightning ThunderCloud , and Tucci .  Loop ...

Kingdom of Loathing Crafting

This is me. Crafting is a large part of KoL (Kingdom of Loathing, a delightful browser-based, multiplayer role-playing game).  As a disco bandit, i am skilled at the art of cocktailcrafting.  There are many discoveries i've yet to make, so i need to keep track of what ingredients i need to acquire to make new drinks. The left column denotes the type of item i hope to discover. I've also got a Chef-in-the-Box which helps me cook fancy dishes. Green cells denote items i already have. Below is some of the equipment i possess, organized by type.  The "Handed" column refers to the number of hands required to wield a weapon.  Note that some weapons require three hands. Meat is the currency of the Kingdom of Loathing. If you combine some meat, you can make meat paste.  With meat paste, you can glue other items together, creating familiars, gear, usables, etc. The parenthetical statements following some of the items describe the quests, locations, o...
