an awesome website I found

Okay, so if I’ve talked to you about the zombie stories I’ve probably told you that the “point” of them is that the zombies don’t really change all that much, which is sort of true. Mostly the point if them is that they are cathartic to write and I enjoy fucking around with zombies and characters, but that is okay. The point of them is not the zombies.

This is a beverage review site where the point is not the beverages. It’s called The Knowledge For Thirst and it’s brilliant. Here is a quote from the latest post:

Josh, I’ve been really stressed and sad lately. I know you could tell from my last post, and the sob-choked messages I leave on your voicemail every night around 2 AM, which you do not return, but I know that’s just your way of helping me remain strong by teaching me to lower my expectations.

So the other night, after another long day of being stressed about work and the environment and the political and economic situations and the near-constant threat of zombie attack, we decided to skip our family’s normal evening routine, and threw everyone in the car for a trip to Sonic.

It was suddenly fall in the Midwest, and it was one of those evenings where the setting sun was so immense and red that you can’t help but realize that we are hurtling through space. We got to Sonic, pulled in and ordered, and the car hop waitron brought out our drinks. I of course got to do my thing where I taste one sip of whatever everyone else in the car has ordered, despite their objections. This is not hegemony; it is science. As I vowed to you when we first started this site, I am a bevpert first, a decent human being second.

See me doing the real blog thing? Where I post links to other blogs that I like instead of writing stories? I’m totally doing that. I want a candy reward or something. No. Watermelon flavor. Fuck cherry.
