    I worked for a while in a Brooklyn Irish bar. We actually refused to make car bombs supposedly due to political offensiveness…more likely since they’re annoying to make and can lead to broken glassware. It does tend to be a waste of good Guiness and good whiskey. The most revolting modern twist on this trend has to be the ‘Jaeger bomb’ A shot of Jaegermesister dropped into a half glass of Red Bull. It’s an exponential explosion of unpleasantness.

    I did also watch a young lady take a large chunk out of her front tooth with a car bomb. The torrent of obscenities unleashed while she pummeled her boyfriend for making her do it was secretly very amusing to watch.

  6. Ha, spoken like a true gentleman, Jeff. I think all Jager luges should be rounded up and disposed of. Maybe we can convert them to vegetable delivery systems for kids and put them in public schools.

    And Red Bull? Wow, can’t wait to see us look back on that in 20 years. “Seriously? They drank that shit and went clubbing? Savages. Let me guess, they got to the venue by gas-guzzling stretch Hummer?”

    David – the sedate version was called the “half ‘n half” back home in west Scotland, but I have no recollection of mothers’ names being mentioned at any point…!
