Friend? He's been downgraded to idiot. I think that I should stop opening up champagne for him.

This is TBird you're drinking with. No matter what you open, it'll be wasted on him.

It just needed to be said again.

I agree this guy is a pu$$y, though. He should have said, "CHAMPAGNE!!!??? You're f-ing with me, right? Just open something red and stop acting like a woman."

That would be the non-pu$$y response. Popcorn

Now an idiot (different idiot) is talking about 'second night' champagne on eBob.

WTF? Champagne actually lasting until a second evening?

And I thought eBobers had 'it'.
My impressions of them have been thoroughly crushed by that statement.
That's the problem with opening a Jeroboam without enough friends.

KSC02, NEVER waste a fine wine on an uneducated palate. Razz

Just open a magnum of something from Oz and be done with it. Wink

speaking of uneducated, it's kind of painful to see the words "fine wine" and "champagne" in the same sentence... Razz Big Grin
