I'd have a beer with about anyone here, but would have some reservations about:
1. Ciggy: Would probably simply give me articles to read and, if I protested about the content of any of them, would repeatedly call me a wingnut.
2. WWJD: The condescension and anti-Christian bigotry would get old.
3. OiT: We'd never be able to stick with a topic of conversation for more than 30 seconds.
4. Flick: Would probably spend the whole time crying about missing the "giants of HROT" and how OiT screws up every thread.

I can't believe the wingnut press actually got something right for a change!:
Beer lovers, rejoice! Not only does beer taste great, and make you feel "buzzed" on life, beer is also good for you. Well, in moderation.
As pints are poured in bars and restaurants across the country, know that drinking beer has real health benefits.*
- 1. Decreased incidence of heart disease

There are more than 20 well-done, large international studies that all demonstrate the heart benefits of moderate alcohol consumption. One study, conducted by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA) noted a 20 to 40 percent decrease in coronary artery disease in moderate alcohol drinkers. Now, that doesn’t mean drinking more is better.
Drinking beer responsibly is drinking healthy. Moderate consumption of beer (alcohol) results in an increase in HDL (good cholesterol) and a decrease in LDL (bad cholesterol), along with an improvement in both HDL and LDL particle size.
So, don’t worry about the medical terms; just know that a slightly "buzzed" heart is a happy heart.
- 2. Hops have vitamins

A Dutch study showed a 30 percent increase in vitamin B6 in beer drinkers, which makes sense because hops are loaded with the vitamin. This is important because vitamin B6 helps to battle heart disease.
Alcohol is also an antioxidant, which may contribute in part to the decrease in heart disease.
So if you’re looking for a boost in vitamin B6, or just want to healthy dose of antioxidants, grab a cold one (or two) and cheers to your health.
- 3. Decreases in kidney stones

The Journal of Epidemiology revealed a 40 percent decrease in kidney stones among beer drinkers. This is most likely secondary to the hydration from the beer since we don’t note a similar finding with other alcohol consumption.
So if you want to avoid the extreme pain associated with kidney stones, grab a couple of brews and drink to stone-free days ahead.
- 4. Special benefits for female drinkers

The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition says beer helps prevent a decrease in bone density.
Beer is also high in flavonoids — from the hops — which acts as a natural hormone replacement.
The National Osteoporosis Risk Assessment followed more than 200,000 females and found that drinking alcohol decreased the incidence of osteoporosis (7). All of this leads to a decrease in hip fractures in elderly females, which is important because hip fractures after the age of 65 are associated with a significant increase in mortality.
So, women, if you’re concerned about your bone health, don’t just focus on calcium; add some beer to your diet for another way to protect your bone density.
*The health benefits of drinking beer and alcohol in general are based on moderate consumption, which means two beers per day for an average-size man and one beer a day for average-size women. Many of the benefits described above are lost when alcohol is consumed excessively, and drinking alcohol excessively can have a serious negative effect on your health.

I have drinks with SP daily. All I have to do is look at an empty chair nearby, and there he is "in person" in all his glory.
Not much of a conversationalist, but he rocks sleeveless tees famously and mistreats any nearby basketball rims like a dreaded red-headed step-child. Very much the life of the party.

Perhaps you could also ask about coaches having sexual relationships with cheerleaders?
I would snort a whole marijuana with anyone on here.
Lots of Guinness is good for you ads at the brewery in Dublin.

I'd have a beer with anyone on here. Now, I might chug the beer then smash the bottle/glass upside the heads of a few of you...

Actually, Bladel was there as well.
The fact no one chooses to believe us is fine, though.
FWIW, SP stereotypically poo-pooed the beer offerings at Bent River. (Although I actually agree that Bent River is not the best craft brewery in the Quads).

Flick is a lot of fun to have beers with. But don't have dinner with him or he'll invite his douchebag friends without telling you and then expect you to pick up the tab.

That's B.S. - I'm a Bears fan and Ned Yost fan (Have I mentioned to you that he took the Royals to the World Series and might do so again this year?) and we have beers a lot.
I have heard the fatter you are the longer you can stay high too. Up to 56 days.
So you really think the hottest dude is the guy in front on the left that has ears about 1/2 an inch from his eyes? And the guy on the far right with no ear holes is 4th?
I thought this ranked doability. I thought that was a guy I could totally pitty screw.
Why on earth would you want to play golf with Joel?
Here is how his conversations go:
Bitch about Iowa's governor
Bitch about conservatives
Bitch about Texas
If he talks like he writes, which is also retarded, then he sounds like a terrible person to play golf with.
Are you insinuating that LC doesn't like to bitch about stuff? You either being naive or....
I can see that. He definitely looks meek and submissive; I'm sure he'd appreciate you (literally) throwing him a bone.
Or even tell him where you are going for dinner, or he may crash anyway.Flick is a lot of fun to have beers with. But don't have dinner with him or he'll invite his douchebag friends without telling you and then expect you to pick up the tab.
was there ever a final determination? i just looked in the legendary threads forum and i found a poll thread, but no results of said poll.
M14L, pal-o-mine
IMCC tops the list for me.
