#1 I mostly see a feminine group of white people

Feminine?

#2 They identify as feminine! And inclusive! And smart! And diverse! And better than middle class frat boys!
The camera's iris probably squeezed down to a pinhole to keep from being blinded by all the white.

#4 BUD has already recovered 50% or so of its stock price since its drop. I won't touch their products, but the stock looks strong.

#8 anecdotal...

one of my best friends is a lifelong Bud and Bud-Lite drinker. He has been derided by me and all his friends FOREVER about this. We routinely wrap a case of Bud or Bud-Lite as a birthday or Christmas present for him...and he THANKS us.

He showed up at a gathering the other night with a six-pack of Miller. And loudly proclaimed: "F$#% Budweiser!!!"

I guess we gotta wrap cases of Miller now. :)

#11 Okay, bring the woman of color to the front. And guys, please, step to the back and make room, except you Alphonzo, your gay so you can be in the front row, but not the front, get over to the side, crap, now we are totally unbalanced to the right. Oh, that's symbolic of not being straight, good one. Smile for the camera and say Defeat the patriarchy!

#13 She talks about diversity & inclusion but I don’t see it here. I mostly see a feminine group of white people

He is probably using a dictionary or something to define "diversity and inclusion." Update your definitions! Nowadays "diversity and inclusion" means "all women." Really. Get with the times.

#14 It does look like they are all Bud Lite drinkers.

At least for the photo.

#19 I fucked up royally this afternoon and accidentally bought a 30 pack of Bud Light after switching off to Coors Light a few weeks ago. I had quit smoking for two whole days and after a few events during the day today with clients and others, I got to the point where I said 'I need a smoke and some beers' and made the beer run, not realizing I bought the Bud Light until I got to my car, then I said to myself - 'gotta eat this one, dipshit' and didn't go back in to exchange it. The only explanation I have for that crap - pure reflex on buying the Pud Light, honed over decades.

#22 It was my go-to during golf and lawnmowing seasons. I fear the weakness of habit. Also, locally, Micheladas can be Bud Woke.

Looking at the A/B big names, lot of years building brand loyalty on those as well. Fortunately, all of them are also very forgettable as well.

#23 Confession will absolve your sins, my son

Yeah, that's what I was going for there. Now if I can get that from Besoeker, I'll feel almost fully absolved of sin!

#26 Stock market was down pretty good today, but BUD was down only one cent (and was positive earlier).

BUD is stronger than some think, and they'll overcome this fiasco. Sadly.

#27 Bless me, Rantburg fathers, for I have sinned. I shall stray no more from the righteous path of my new Lord of the Suds, Mr. Aldolph Coors.

We're good here.

#28 I prefer Shiner Bock to all those. Though I rarely drink beer. Still have 5 bottles of single malt I need to finish off.
