Spirit Dwarf

This is awesome. I love the news.

Some pub in St Kilda is in trouble for having a promotion where a bare-chested dwarf walks up and down the bar pouring Jagermeister down your throat. Instead of being praised for being the booze pioneers that they are, these fine folk are being criticised for promoting binge drinking. For shame.

Pubs promote binge drinking? Really? Shit, I thought they were not-for-profit organisations trying to promote social cohesion. What makes this funnier is the quote from Mr Jagermeister;

“Jagermeister brand manager John Howells promised to investigate, saying the stunt was "not responsible service"”

This is Jagermeister right? The company that only became popular in Australia by a fad that involved dropping shots of their spirit into glasses of beer or Red Bull and skulling it? In other news, Phillip Morris pushes for more responsible smoking outside of airports.

I’ve got to mention it though, check out the bod on that little person. God damn, he’s cut.



This got me thinking. Over here in the UAE I can hire a live in housekeeper for 1000 Dirhams or about $300 a month. If I could hire a midget to pour spirits down my throat for a similar price then I’m afraid I just couldn’t turn that down.

Party at my place people. BYOM

Oh noes! Multiple people posting as anonymous... I guess you guys will have to stop calling anonymous a dick because there's more than one of us. Morons.

Anyway, I hate midgets. How dare they come and steal our jobs like this little guy obviously has! Just because they are little folk they get all the perks...

God I miss St Kilda, if it isn't a dwarf trying to get you drunk, it's a transvestite talking about philosophy.

Bastards!

This is just the kind of thing that drives midget-based-alcohol-promotions underground.
