Not that I would know, since I've never had one. But I can imagine this is accurate.

That can't be a Baltimore scene, there's no graffiti on that wall, nor a fentanyl dealer in sight.

It's Hunt Valley, same as Baltimore, but cleaner

It also tastes like a hangover. Seriously. I'm amazed that I can perceive that many fusel alcohols in that dilute of a beverage.

I just searched "ain't no laws when you're drinking claws" for a meme but turned up real actual news articles from both the state of Ohio and Kenosha, Wisconsin police forces stating that laws do in fact still exist when drinking white claw. 

Congratulations Ohio and Kenosha, you just out-Florida'd Baltimore.

I bought some because I wanted something to sip while working in the garage that didn't give me beer breath.  (We have learned through experiment that one should never put the Sobieski bottle in the garage if work is to be accomplished)

 

Sip is absolutely right.  I can drink maybe half a can of that stuff before I get too bloated to drink any other liquids.  Bleah.

The stuff that's not ethanol but is still in the mash/beer.  Do this.  Sip a shot of Jack Daniels.  Then sip a shot of good whiskey like Koval.  You'll taste the difference.

Nah, unless it's seriously upscale I'm 100% down with scanning a QR code for a menu 

What's gets me are the places that make me scan for a menu, but don't have an updated online menu available to view before getting there.

Even better when they are in an area with very poor cell reception.

I'm 100% with the boomers on this.  I will actively avoid places with a QR/web based menu.

 

The only upside I've ever had from one of those is when its integrated and you can order / pay from it also, which means no waiting for the server.

In reply to ProDarwin :

All the takeout/delivery restaurants near where I work have their menus online (good) as PDFs from five years ago.  When you see something interesting on the menu like, say, pierogie pizza (pierogie on pizza!) or mac and cheese fries, they say "Oh, we don't have that anymore."

 

THEN UPDATE YOUR MENU.

 

The mac and cheese fries grates on me because when I first learned of it in 2020, they said "oh we don't have that anymore, limited menu options."  You have sides of mac and cheese.  You have sides of fries.  Can I get half of one of each?

I was at an airport restaurant and had to scan a qr code which was the only option. Then i had to open an account and prepay after filling in my personal and card information. I left as did the elderly couple beside me. To be clear, they had no card readers at the table. It was all to be done on my personal device.
