Absolut Vodka is running an ad in Mexico showing what the map of the U.S. and Mexico would look like in a perfect world. Pandering like this annoys me. The border is not going to change, get over it.
I'm done with Absolut, there are plenty of other brands out there.

I was done with Absolut after my freshman year in college, so this is essentially meaningless to me. It does remind of Ronnie saying that when he was in elementary school he always wondered why we didn't just overtake canada and mexico.

I think they've made a calculation here, and decided that Mexicans drink more than guys like you.

I've never been to anything in the green part, so I don't really care.

I'm waiting for the Canadian Club ad where they try to claim Wildwood, NJ as theirs.

I was done with Absolut after I realized what good Vodka taste like. Be gone with your shit drink and your ad campaign that stopped being witty 10 years ago!

Funny that this ad comes out the month after a French company buys Absolut.
From now on, I call it freedomsolut!

The people who get the most upset about things like this are usually the same people with "Bomb them all and let God sort it out" bumper stickers.

I usually stick with the Ketel One. Usually on the cheaper side at bars, but tastes better than most "expensive" vodkas.
Although, there's a vodka called Zyr that is pretty fucking good. Probably the best I've tried so far.
Also, I just got home from my neighborhood Vodka bar and I'm drunk. Hooray!
Vodka blows.
Real men drink Scotch.

I checked out this place in Freiberg, Germany (http://www.kgb-freiburg.com/)
My last drink of the night was something called "Red October". I felt like I drank some high grade vodka, but snorted some low grade pepper. Got hiccups, laughed at by Russian and Germans alike...Made my grand exit.
