My mother-in-law used to ask for honeymoon salad. When asked, she'd say, "Lettuce alone."fresh_42 said:

reminds me of the time 3 brewery reps went drinking together. The guy representing Schlitz ordered a Schlitz and the guy representing Budweiser ordered a Bud and the guy representing Heineken order a coke. Hey, said the Bud rep, how come you ordered a coke? Well, said the Heineken rep, since you guys didn't order beer I figured I wouldn't either.

They scoffed when I said, "One day I'll learn the secret of invisibility."
If only they could see me now.

Fun fact: In The Netherlands, where Heineken originated from, this beer is considered cheap. This is a common cartoon in The Netherlands (kinda need to censor it I think):

I have a strong suspicion those beverages constitute homeopathic beer.

We had a friend who grew up in East Germany and came over after the wall came down. We offered him a beer. He was hesitant, but was willing to try a can of Coors. His comment: "A German would drink this beer".fresh_42 said:

Reminds me of what a Russian once said to me as he saw me drinking a Russian beer, which was good by the way: "Tastes good, but it takes too long."jrmichler said:

I'm no fan of Bud (or Schlitz) but Heinekin? Seriously? You could reverse the brand names and the joke would still work equally as poorly.

Guinness would have been a good and somehow neutral and internationally known choice.JT Smith said:

I think Guinness is in the same category. Guinness is well made for what it is, same as Bud and Heinekin. They are all expertly made, mass produced, consistent, unexceptional, bland products of ginormous multinational corporations.fresh_42 said:
