Life Before Noon Tip: Drinking By Yourself is Fine

Posted on August 17th, 2010 by Dan

Growing up, you always hear that if you drink when you are alone, you have a drinking problem.  Trust us, if you have a couple of beers when you get home, you are fine; you don’t have a problem.  Drinking beer is one of man’s best pleasures in life, so you should partake even if you are by yourself.  Now, if you are doing shots by yourself until you puke, then waking up and slamming Jack straight out of the bottle with a straw so you don’t shake, then you have a problem.

Life Before Noon Tip: Keep a Bottle of Water at Your Desk

Posted on July 6th, 2010 by David

You’re going to be thirsty during the day and water is the best thing for you.  Soda is going to be plentiful as is coffee.  Anything in moderation is fine, but some are better than others.  Water will quench hunger, hydrate you and help flush you out.  Drinking as much water as possible during the day will also help keep you hydrated at the bar that night (keep drinking water in between beers at the bar, but when you do, just slam the glass of water and get back to drinking beer. Don’t sip it like an English lad sips Pellegrino).

Life Before Noon Tip: Live Within Walking Distance Of A Bar

Posted on July 1st, 2010 by Dan

When you are looking for a place to live, consider the proximity of your pad to a fun bar.  It will make a big difference in your social life if you can walk home, instead of drive home.  Plus, your place can become the defacto afterhours spot, if you want to keep the party going with your buddies and the ladies.  Plus, being so close home, you  can also save some money and drink a few beers at your place, before you go to the bar.  Save $20 bucks a week by doing so, and that is over $1,000 a year you just saved.  Consider that savings when you have to pay more for rent due to the location.

Life Before Noon Tip: Learn to Chug a Beer

Posted on June 13th, 2010 by Dan

Nothing is more embarrassing than deciding to chug a beer with someone only to cough it up seconds into the chug.  Man up and slam the beer like a champ.  Anything over 5 seconds is unacceptable.  Also unacceptable is trying to act like you finished the chug when really there is half a beer left.  Whatever you do, never use an excuse like, “Bro, I can’t chug keg beer”.  Learning to chug will make you more acceptable socially and also impress that beer-guzzling, monster of a woman who looks attractive at 2 am…
