In a store buying a beer after work when I see...

[GagHalfrunt]

Why would someone mark themselves so they will never hold a reputable job....

Question asked, question answered.

 

[Fayd]

H is the 8th letter of the alphabet.

What does HH stand for?

See I never got that memo.

88 to me means 'bye bye', in keeping with the hanyu pinyin use. (8 in chinese is pronounced 'bai')

 

[master_shake_]

american beer....

oh god.

High neck, face and hand tattoos are the only ones that may throw up red flags. I worked with a kid once who was tattooed from shoulder to feet, with two full sleeves. He always wore long sleeves and nobody ever knew about his tattoos until he was comfortable and confident enough to reveal them.

"the number 88 stands for "Heil Hitler," H being the eighth letter of the alphabet. The 88 is also representative of an 88-word passage from Hitler's Mein Kampf"

And while I enjoy a cold Corona on a hot summer day I can't stand Fosters.

But it's Australian for beer!

And Corona is Mexican for skunk.

It's interesting to see the evolution of old world brewing in the Americas. In the US, all of the knowledge of those old German brewers was lost to the increasing watering down of the products until we now have piss-water like Bud and Miller and PBR.

In Mexico, it's not much better. A lot of poorly made beers popular with gringos who were weaned on Budweiser.

But in Canada ... It's a totally different story. Many Canadian Pilsners still exist that have real lager flavor reminiscent of some of the better European lagers.

 

[Leros]

a guy with sleeve length tattoos on both arms and tattoos on his neck.

His right arm was tattooed with 88 and the word "pride".

Why would someone mark themselves so they will never hold a reputable job, never earn respect in the typical community and always be viewed as a racist? What kind of example is he going to set for his kids?

As for the beer, I bought a 24 ounce corona and a fosters. Sipping on the corona right now.

I am bothered that here we are in the 21st century, and that type of hatred still exist.

I've work with engineers and executives with lots of tattoos. Don't care.

However, I hate you for your shitty taste in beer.

Edit: just read that HH stands for Heil Hitler... hmmm... still not as bad as your taste in beer.

No...that's zorrillo.

[SlitheryDee]

Surely the op knew that, regardless of any other content in his post, mentioning a beer purchase automatically makes the thread about beer.

 

[piasabird]

Tatoos are such a waste of time and money. I cant see marking up the only body I will ever have.

He was proud to born in 1988, and he's grabbin' some pints.

ITT: Nationalistic Canadian proves he hasn't paid attention to the US beer scene since 1990.

Same here, and I would never drink Corona to boot. The only other beer that is more over-rated is Guinness, but at least that is drinkable.

With Pacifico, Dos Equis, Sol, Modelo, hell even Tecate, I have no idea why Corona caught on as the Mexican "fad beer".

Guinness is nasty.

How do you live in a place like Colorado and yet profess abject ignorance to the amazing quality of contemporary American brewing?

for shame.

I fail to see how having ink eliminates one from having a reputable job.

Can't stand Bud or really any mass-produced American beer with the possible exception of original Miller in bar-bottles. Most of my favorite beers are from Europe (Belgium in particular) but I'm also partial to the original Molson Ale and despite what anyone thinks I like Corona. Deal with it.

Its a bit like wearing flip flops to an interview...

Try getting a reputable job with tattoos and get back to us.

Tattoos are looked down upon in just about every employee handbook. If you can't hide them (Ummm especially neo-nazi tattoos) enjoy your life of unemployment.

Then you completely missed my point. American craft brewing today has evolved from mostly beer nerds who were brewing in their garages or basements. Not from the brewers who came to this continent in the 1800s. Canadian brewing, at even the largest breweries, are direct descendants from those 19th century brewers. There' s huge difference in the family lines.

[xaeniac]

racism still exists? say it aint so

 

[z1ggy]

LOL TH drinks Corona. I figured a gay hater would at least drink PBR or some other similar gross beer. Corona is teetering on the edge of gay TH... Better be careful! If you drink too many you might start feeling a little tingle in your panties for men...

 

[Rakehellion]

People who drink Corona are worse than Hitler.

 

[Bateluer]

Craft beer for life.
