Nobody Drink the Beer. The Beer Has Gone Bad.

Say what you want about the taste of Miller Lite, but once again, they’re blowing everyone away in the ad campaign department. Working on the premise that Budweiser is the King of Beers and thus can’t be suitable for a democratic nation, Miller Lite is running a campaign as the President of Beers. A few lines I found particularly hilarious…

“I’d like to tell you a story about my grandparents. They had a refrigerator that they knitted, themselves, out of yarn. It was small, not very cold, but it taught me a valuable lesson. Not all of us have King Size refrigerators.”

“That’s unacceptable,” says judge.
“You’re unacceptable.”

“This whole thing is a travesty, a sham, a mockery. It’s a travishamockery.”

“I would ask the King of Beers what he would say to that. Why won’t my opponent debate this issue. Is it because he’s a horse or is it because he’s got blinders on! No peripheral vision. Look at me. Both sides.”

Even more surprising is the Budweiser rebuttal ad in which they state that Miller Lite was bought by a foreign company and is thus ineligible for the presidency. Ta-dow. How you like me now.

Headline Quote Movie of Origin: Can’t Hardly Wait

Character: William Lichter

Setting: Bill, in a plot to embarrass his tormenter, Mike Dexter, attends the last high school blowout bash of the year. Having never consumed an alcoholic beverage before, after tasting the keg beer, let’s out the headline quote.

The quote is relevant to this story how?: The article is about beer. The quote is about beer. Connection.
