My Aussie friend Justin has alerted me to this new absurdity: Shots and bombs of alcohol have been banned in Newscastle, New South Wales in an attempt to "crack down on drunken louts."
Hmm...this strikes me as a bit draconian. I was recently introduced to something yummy known as a "Jaegerbomb" (shot of Jaegermeister dropped into a glass of Red Bull), and the thought of legions of thirsty Aussies deprived of this pleasure saddens me. It's just wrong. Wrongedy wrong.
Next thing you know, they'll be banning Starbucks in order to crack down on pretentious yuppies. Well, they can have my Venti low-fat no-foam vanilla latte when they pry it from my cold, dead hands.
Drunken louts prior to ban.
