Simple. Take up homebrewing. You'll forget what running out of beer is all about. Forever.

You'll learn however what it's like to have a surplus of perfect beer much of which will probably go past its best before date before you even come to drink it up.


Here, about 350 bottles of some 25 varieties of beer in the cellar. I'm the only drinker, I drink little, have nobody to give beer away to and I almost never toss my brews cause they're awesome.

Home distillation is better bang for your buck 😉

I guess it is better if I don't comment on this topic. I could get in trouble with the one person who is on my case about something or other.

I remember an Agony Aunt column from the Sun Newspaper about a fellow who suffered extreme guilt due to his predilection for having sex with the family vacuum cleaner! I suppose that really does define the meaning of this sucks!
I wonder what model vacuum it was. I hear the Telefunken U-47 had some titillating attachments.

When I was working a Summer job at an advertising agency around 1980, I remember one of the bosses, Bill Henderson, was marveling at some injuries some people sustained from a Hoover Dustette vacuum cleaner. I believe this attached report was the one he was looking at, as I recall the phrase “lacerations of the glans” quite vividly. Bill seemed surprised by the distance cleared to make contact with the fan blades—he walked around the office gesturing the distance with his two hands and seemed quite surprised.

". . . probably in search of sexual excitement." No shit, Sherlock!

15 cm is 6", so our lacerated gents are above average (supposedly).
