If you can't beat 'em, annoy 'em.

The longer the entire "President of Beers" ad campaign goes on, the more annoying it gets. The only good thing about it is that it's brought back the Budweiser iguanas (they're iguanas, right?).

Yesterday morning I heard yet another commercial and became inspired with an alternate tag line:

"Miller, Bud, they both taste like piss."

american beer is only missing two things: alcohol and taste :-)

or as a british friend put it: why would anyone with brains want to drink that swill anyway?

That does help to explain Bush though :)

Argh. One of those stupid !@#$ing commercials was just on the radio.

I read about this ad campaign in TIME magazine a couple days ago... and I am completely oblivious to it! I've never seen or heard a single commercial about it! Guess that's what happens when you tape all your TV shows and fast-forward through the commercials! :)

I thought up a slogan for Gay Bud:

"We're here! We're beer! Get used to it!"

A Canadian once said this to me:

How are American beers like having sex in a canoe?

They're both fucking close to water!

Don't leave out the ferret! He makes those commercials great.

I believe they're chameleons.

Both chameleon and iguana are great words to say repeatedly.

Regardless, yes, they both taste like piss. The beers, not the lizards, which I imagine taste not unlike chicken.

"Miller, Bud, they both taste like piss."

Amen, sister. Give me a frosty Newcastle any day.

However, I love Bob Odenkirk, and the word "travashamockery" makes me laugh.

I used to have a saying that I applied to the life-altering decision of choosing either coke or diet coke: would you rather have dirt, or shit?

I believe this applies to all macro-brewery American beers.
