What about Men Without Hats?   Particularly if they’re doing The Safety Dance?

I'd think The Safety Dance would involve social distancing, but this doesn't look very safe- Jukebox

Interesting name for an adult beverage.  Kinda "hits the spot," so to speak.

This is printed on the bottle....

This is an aggressive beer. You probably won’t like it. It is quite doubtful that you have the taste or sophistication to be able to appreciate an ale of this quality and depth. We would suggest that you stick to safer and more familiar territory—maybe something with a multimillion-dollar ad campaign aimed at convincing you it’s made at an independent brewery, or one that implies that their tasteless seltzer / fizzy yellow beer / whatever-the-hell will give you more sex appeal. Perhaps you think multimillion-dollar ad campaigns make all that junk taste better. Perhaps you’re mouthing your words as you read this.

We believe that pandering to the lowest common denominator represents the height of tyranny—a virtual form of keeping the consumer barefoot, stupid & led by the nose social media. Brought forth upon an unsuspecting public in 1997, Arrogant Bastard Ale openly challenged the tyrannical overlords who were brazenly attempting to keep the people chained in the shackles of poor taste. One glance around and it’s glaringly obvious: they’re winning...as of now. Yet we will not stop. Ever. Since the very beginning, Arrogant Bastard Ale has reveled in its unprecedented and uncompromising celebration of intensity. There have been many nods to Arrogant Bastard Ale…even outright attempts to copy it…but only one can ever embody the true nature of Liquid Arrogance! Hated By Many. Loved By Few.

I have trouble having much of any beer. I think I have some issues with gluten, but not as bad as my wife.

So I have to drink something harder!

Not a big Elvis Costello fan (what, a mashup of Elvis and Abbot and Costello?///)

But I like this one by him.

Your mission, and you have no choice but to accept it, is to turn this mundane world into a suitable dwelling place for the Holy One.

And this message will never self-destruct.

But those who prevent it will be destroyed. I'm looking at you, Iran. Do you feel lucky, punk mullahs?

Well, too bad. G-d has an infinite number of bullets in his revolver

Take a look at your news sites. 

It looks like there is a dam failure in Michigan.

it looks like the area’s down stream of the Sanford Dam are going to get hit pretty bad. There is a concern that down town Midland will be under nine feet of water. A Dow chemical plant and some kind of power plant are in the expected flood zone as well.

it will be a terrible mess
