File this under: No shit, really?

Last night, I'm watching "The Simpsons" and "American Dad" (not as pee-your-pants funny as "Family Guy", but still Seth MacFarlane can do no wrong, I'd watch him read the ingredients from a box of Cheerios - he's going to be my third husband, after I leave my current husband for John Mayer and after John Mayer leaves me for Tara Reid - ew) and every ten minutes, there's a commercial for this way over hyped big undercover investigative series by the local Fox news crew into whether drive-thru liquor stores are a bad idea.

I'm so glad they're looking into this further, because on the surface it seems like an okay idea... I mean, what do you think they're trying to imply? You don't think that a DRIVE-THRU LIQUOR STORE would maybe encourage drunk driving do you?

Wow, what do you think that their investigations will turn up next? Something about smoking being hazardous to your health? Or obesity not being as healthy as we'd previously thought?

  • Drive-through liquors stores are one thing. A friend of mine who went to Louisiana told me about drive-through daquiri places. You drive through and buy a mixed, alcoholic drink from your car!?!?!?

    Oh sure you can just drive home and then drink it, but come on!

  • THANK YOU!
    I have been commenting an the absurdity of drive-thru liquor stores ever since I spent a summer in Phoenix. We have none of those here in Cali, just drive-thru organic veggies and yoga mats.

  • Kristin - I figured it was you - no one else (but me, of course) would take such joy in corrupting youngsters)
