That jager machine, though awesome, is like 300 dollars and is as effective as just sticking the bottle in a freezer.

If you ever want a good drinking game, just buy a breathalyzer. It's the most competitive game ever.

@Darrone:

"Available for $149.99."

I agree on point #2. Breathylizer i do want, if only to be bold to the cop and be like. "You're wasting your time. I'm going to blow an oh-five-four and you're going to let me go. Douche."

Haha...I actually have one of those chill socks. I have no idea where I got it though. It was one of those things I woke up and it was laying around :D

What about the binoculars flask? Saw a dude with one at a Rockies game a couple weeks ago. Awesome idea, and you can hold 5-6 times as much as the sandals.

@Darrone: Yeah, someone had a breathalyzer on New Years Eve. I think things got competitive, but I don't remember

Why would I bother with the usb can cooler when we have a perfectly functional and fully stocked beer fridge in the corner of the office? :)

@Kyoseki:

Because not getting up off your ass for a beer and waiting 12 hours for your beer to go from luke-warm to cool is so much fun....

...and it's a great way to stay in shape!

You left out the two quickest ways to get drunk for terminal alcoholics, the alcohol enema and alcohol vaporizer.

The lead photo is hilarious and disturbing. I've been catching up on the week in Giz and it's on the top banner of every page...each refresh makes me cringe. Where did it come from?
