    That's okay. I bought True Blood purely for the prop value.

      I get creative marketing campaigns. Really.

      But some of the liquor names out there really piss me off. They're so clearly aimed at the Lowest Common Denominator that it makes my head hurt.

      It is *very* possible to have a crowd-pleasing, friendly wine and not call it something like Bitch. That ensures the only people drinking it are those who are still of a middle-school mentality, those who only shop at stores where everything is behind bulletproof glass, or the people who were put on this earth solely to annoy me.

      Yup. Had another request.

      NO WE WILL NOT CARRY THAT WINE. THE OWNER OF THIS STORE HAS SPOKEN. STOP ASKING. WE WILL NEVER CARRY THAT WINE. YOU HAVE ASKED ME FOUR TIMES IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS. YES, I KEPT COUNT. BUGGER OFF.

        Heh.

        Someone needs to make a wine.

        Label it "Lowest Common Denominator."

          Shoot, once I saw Menage a Trois wine for sale at Publix.
          It's actually a great everyday red table wine plus it's really fun to request in front of those not in the know...

          "excuse me...can I get a Menage a Trois?" hehe..

                I was watching the cooking channel not too long ago and they had a show about jumbo eats. And one of the places they went to served a very large ale called arrogant bastard. I wants it.
                For an anniversary a while back I bought my husband the shirt that says "I am an Arrogant Bastard", with the Stone gargoyle on the back.

                He bought me the T with the fake thermal sleeves that says, "I like my Arrogant Bastards with wood."

                For Oaked Arrogant Bastard, of course.
                Any day you're looking down at the dirt instead of up at the dirt is a good day.

                  I actually picked up a bottle of Vampire Merlot last year just for the name, and the clerk at the store told me it was actually a rather good wine, and his family was always hassling him to bring them some when he visited.

                    Some of my favourite wines are plays on words.

                    Like the one we just got. Domaine des 2 anes. (yes I left accents off. bite me.)

                    It makes me giggle.

                        So, I went looking for Sweet Bitch to check what the label looked like.

                        And I found Herding Cats, instead...

                            I love some of the South African labels.

                            Like Goats do Roam (Cotes du Rhone).

                              i've never had Sweet Bitch wine, but I have had Bitch wine.
                              It was good. my boyfriend is good at picking out wines. (which shouldn't be surprising since he once worked at a wine store as a second job).
