I enjoy Budweiser as much as the other guy, but Natural Ice should wipe it out of existence. Why go for the best when you can go for the…rest?
Natural Ice (Nasty Ice; Natty Ice for the enlightened) is Bud without the working-man’s price (read: tailor-made for college). A 12-pack costs as much as most sixers and gets you off-the-rocker drunk.
If you drink to get wasted, wasted you will get.
With some beers it’s necessary to break down the distinct taste, aroma and head - not with Natty. This budget brew contains more alcohol than regular beers (5.9), not to mention packing a taste reminiscent of skunked Bud and whorish sweat. Funny enough, hangovers are almost non-existent.
Head? Don’t offend Natty that way. This ain’t no precious micro-brew; this is distilled party piss with hops.
The greatest asset Natural Ice has going for it is the miraculous flavor-change that happens when you’re over 6-beers deep. Not only does it then taste exactly like Bud, but it goes down as easy as spring water. Read More »

Why does it always feel like I’m dead broke or at least scrounging for money? I try to budget/cut back but it’s hard to ID the source that is burning a hole in my wallet. I thought it was my money hungry girlfriend who always needs to order the $7 tiramisu after dinner or could be the semester tuition but I saw this list of deceptive money drains that cost me a ton over the long term.
Once I did the math on my coffee addiction I realized that almost a grand was blown away yearly for a jittery sugar high.
Although German fetish porn doesn’t make the list you should check out the factors that can are costing you dearly after the jump…

Imagine combining the joys of Aladdin’s ‘Whole New World’ with the hedonism of Huxley’s ‘Brave New World‘ and you’ll be feeling pretty good about your post-college-in-my-own-apartment-sweet-life. Well au contraire, my friend whom I occasionally speak French with: before you start buying cool things like solo cups and Franzia, follow these basic financial rules:
Make a Budget
First of all, if you own your own jet or flying car, stop reading this column immediately and buy me something awesome (like a flying car). If you are, however, with the rest of us, you might want to consider making a budget: a list of all planned expenses and revenues. Read More »
