drinking

Since corona times have deeply plagued our social lives, I'm sure you have forgotten what barhopping feels like. I bet you're yearning for just one more night of sticky, beer-drenched floors, strangers' sweat intermingling with your own, and music you secretly don't like. For some inexplicable reason, I enjoy seedy nights out on the town just as much.

Perhaps if I refresh your memory of the guys you came into contact with at bars in our pre-corona lives, staying at home may just begin to sound more appealing. Cheezcake ladies: here are the reasons we should count our blessings regarding having to take a break from the bar scene.

Rule number one when you're on a date is to always keep cool and give a good impression. Even if you're raging inside, never ever EVER show it on the outside. It's not a good look. Rule number two? Don't be a cheapskate. Again, not a good look. 

In our latest tale of dating debacles from real women in NYC, brought to us by The Single Society, it seems like this guy missed both those memos. Big time! The dating world is a tough one, but hey, at least bad dates make good stories, right? 

One of the most (relatively) devastating effects of Coronavirus has been the closing of all bars and pubs. Although this has been felt everywhere, the British public is understandably one of the most hard-hit nations when it comes to the loss of social drinking. Some are wallowing in their sadness and waiting for the pubs to reopen. But others are taking matters into their own hands and implementing drastic action to get their alcohol fix. One family in Wigan, U.K., hired Octavia Chic to construct a pub in their backyard so they wouldn't have to wait until the lockdown is over. The results are even better than you could imagine, and judging by the pictures Octavia Chic uploaded to their Facebook page (featured below), they're going to get many more orders just like that one!

Aside from trying to stay sane, get creative, and eat our weight in food, there's not much else to do besides drinking our way through quarantine. These tweets show just how much people are drinking to get through this difficult time period (in the last alcoholic way possible). Cheers to that!

What seems like an innocent and cute design has going horribly wrong -- and in so many ways!

Do you think the Japanese designers behind this product didn't realize all these alternative views of their design, or was it intention? Either way, the cup has gone viral and as they say, 'There is no such thing as bad publicity.'
