Apples vs pears…holding your nose to vote (or adding ice)…a hint of corruption…but you have Absolut power…America votes and this bear gets shitfaced watching the election coverage

OMG, my American inebriate friends, I am so excited about your election. I wish I could vote! (Not that bears can vote in Canada.)

All our favorite alcohol purveyors are shamelessly on board with the election…

Two candidates. Who gets your vote?

Original! Original! Pear is just a grab for sweet-toothed underage drinkers!

 

Let your vote be heard. Neat or on the rocks?

This one’s a toughie. For Jim Beam I’m gonna say with ice. Sort of like holding your nose and voting.

 

Vota por Corona. Siempre la elección correcta.
(Vote for Corona. Always the right choice.)

Corona probably doesn’t have any business talking about elections. This marketplace bully with its light mediocrity is so ubiquitous that everyone can remember a party where there was nothing but Corona—even if they “voted” for something else. Kind of like a Mexican election.

 

The future begins with you.

Just remember, if you fill your head full of vodka before you hit the polling station, try not to spoil your ballot! And if they try to prevent you voting because you’re intoxicated, stand your ground, my fellow inebriates. Voting drunk isn’t illegal—just being publicly intoxicated, and they can arrest you after you cast your ballot. Bring your toothbrush!

 

HAPPY VOTING, MY AMERICAN FRIENDS!

One last image on this important day, not of alcohol but of art…

  1. The Demon Seed and I are watching election coverage while drinking hideous cheap Shiraz wine, but making it palatable with lavender and fennel goat cheese with fresh french bread.
    DEAR GOD WHERE IS THE HOCKEY?! Will this Fall/Winter hell never end?????

  2. addendum: 2 elections ago I was living in northern Michigan -close to the UP. Wore a shirt that read ‘Lick Bush.’ Voter peeps forced me out of line until I could change my shirt…. apparently such a written statement upon my boobs could sway another voter.
    Who knew? Guess the midwest states don’t like lesbians….

    • We’ve had a similar but less graphic thing happen. They don’t let you enter the polls with anything on you that could sway opinion. Of course being kicked out itself could sway opinion…

What's your poison? Drop me a line.
