You've drank your mother's nail polish?


I knew someone would say that so I was careful to say "reminds me of" instead of "tastes like". Laughing

1,600 for a pitcher of beer is expensive? Compared to where?

[quote="OCOKA Dude"][quote="Emu Bitter"]The cheap beer is the main reason I'm still here. I go to Carrefour pretty much once a day & buy the 1.6 litre plastic ones. Basically 3 for 10000.[/quote]

I heard there's a Carrefour in Bundang, but for the life of me, I haven't been able to find it. Can you tell me where it is, say, from JongJa Station?[/quote]

As the earlier poster said Ori & Yatap stations. From Jeongja Ori is easier, go out exit 6 at Ori st. & it's straight ahead of you.

whoa there, you might ruffle some canadian feathers. Ever see the movie canadian bacon? Two things you don't trash about canada : hockey and beer Laughing


OK my guess is that you are from back east (that means east of the Rocky Mountains) Wink Go ahead and trach canadian beer (Labatts and Molson) as it is just recycled urine. As for hocky, I only found out they were on strike in January. BUT! dont say anything bad about west coast microbrews or skiing Twisted Evil Twisted Evil

I read this whole thread wrong, thought it was 1,600 for 1.6 litres. Where did I get that from?

Anyway I guess that is a fairly expensive. Carry on!

Well, they ain't 99 cent High Lifes (The Champagne of Beers), but it's still pretty affordable. I never drink more than like one on the homefront anyways.

Are you sure it wasn't 1600W for a 640?

�뷮 : 500mL is what is on the side of the bottle. Maybe I'm missing something here and you can all point and laugh at me. It sure looks like half a litre. Laughing
