We coulda gotten Bin Laden as early as 2009 if we kept this elixir pumpin'
Budweiser Extra (2004-2008): To chase the Red Bull/Vodka crowd, Bud released this product, alternately pronounced as "B to the E" (I'm serious). It was a 6.6% alcohol beer, containing caffeine, ginseng, and guarana. After a couple years, the American version removed the caffeine.

The crackling sound of the lemonade hitting the hot, hot fire is actually sampled subtly in Daft Punk's b-side "Euro-Peein'"
Ah, New Year’s Day! That can only mean one thing. YES, THAT’S RIGHT! The 148th anniversary of New York Herald proprietor James Gordon Bennett Jr being banished from polite society for pissing in his fiancée’s fireplace, thus giving the world the phrase ‘Gordon Bennett!’ 🧵

I appreciate that textbooks of style for English emphasize conciseness and balance.
By contrast, French–a diseased language–cannot yield such a book, lest the hypotactic sentences spiral high enough to lead you directly into the center of the sun

The great part about eating greasy foods while married is that, if you take off your ring for cleanliness, you're no longer legally married.
