Tees-ing Ya!

You know...

I look at the competition. 

I look at the competition - a lot! 

And I think to myself... what a 

wonderful world?!? 

No, that's not it! 

I think to myself... what a crock! 

Like this piece of crock right here:

It's a ''US Design''... Of course! 

Now why, tell me, why 

would that be considered worthier, 

trendier, hipper, in any way better 

than one of my very own 

LUMINOUS TEES - eh? 

One such as this: 

--- for sheer example! 

(plenty more *brilliant* if not always 

*luminous* per say 
such examples/samples 

over at 

www.luminous.online 
see you there!) 

It must be aaaaaaaaall a question of 

TASTE - indeed! 

But we are not here to evaluate 

different tastes - nope! 

Even though this is the 

TASTE-TESTING BLOG 

and all... 

We're testing tastes here... 

in a different way! 

How about this:

And No. 1

Meh. 

WHICH ONE 

IS IN POORER TASTE? 

HUH?

Just so you know it, now, 

without a shadow of a doubt: 

my LUMINOUS TEES are tasteful, 

cool and, quite simply, 

FANTABULOUS! 

WEAR 'EM OR WEEP! 

Your choice...! 

BEER WITH ME

It is the nature of the bloggety-blog beast here; 

it is kinda difficult to perform a true-blue 

''taste-test'' on the premises, on the spot here... 

is it not! 

Best thing we can and will do - 

we will sacrifice ourselves 

taste it all for ya - free of charge... 

AND LET YOU KNOW THE RESULTS! 

And all you will have to do, then, 

is OBEY and go for the one WE SAY 

IS THE BEST... 

Capisce?  

Todo Bem! 

LET'S DO THIS! 

No, folks - you cannot go wrong with this choice here: 

a six-pack (bottles, not cans - you redneck!) 

and you get to sample three, count 'em, three beers!!! 

(Two of each - duh. In case (!) you need a second opinion 

- or your taste buds need more of the stuff to fully 

assess the bitterness... or the bitterness of the taste! 

Because this is BEER... it is supposed to be AWFUL!) 

Having stated all that... 

Lochness and Titanic are... ok! 

If you love your beers to have that certain 

aqua feeling - unless it is nautical nausea, that is! 

And if chugging down a strong beer is your thing - 

you cannot go wrong with this Canon thing here! 

And you may have fun 

thinking how it was conceived, brewed,, bottled 

(always hoping for the best...) 

and/or imagining how you will dispose 

of that second bottle of it -  

whether you cook with it 

or simply use that to unclog your sink...

I do prefer sample cases myself, anyway - 

you do not want to be stuck with 6 or -oh Lord- 12 or 24 

of the awful one you just cannot chug down, 

not even holding your breath and thinking 

of fine liquors - or fine wines! 

But if you are sure of your tastes... 

then you may go for one of the following indeed: 

Wheat and flowers - you can't go wrong with this one! 

Reminds me of their Équinoxe one... (see video below) 

(WAY, FAR BELOW NOW...!) 

And I don't know why but I always picture 

Céline with a bottle of this... after a show!? 

Can't believe ''Dieu du Ciel'' did not approach her 

about a commercial for the stuff...

This one - spicy, sure... 

I expected to LOVE IT TO DEATH... sort of. 

But the homage to Vasco de Gama 

falls considerably short. 

Vasco drank fine wine, anyway.

I quickly developed an aversion to this one - 

it can go (back) to hell, for all I care... 

never mind how strong it is!!! 

And this pale one doesn't know if it wants to be 

a strong beer - or a radler! 

A misbegotten misfit somewhere between the two, rather...!!! 

PASS. 

Thus, ultimately, I decree (order) this: 

drink water instead! 

You do not want to drink beer 

in the morning anyway - 

now do you?!? 

Drunkard...!

Social Media...!!!

Such is the nature of *this* beast - right? 

You just glanced at it - it's gone forever! 

Hence the Saudades factor kicking in here! 

It sure does apply... 

Nâo é verdade? 

Thank God for screen captures - 

we can circumvent at least 

a tiny bit of this... condition! 

Let's start with music though... 

Ohh... yeah! 

All the good stuff one can access 

- via one's smart phone! 

To the moments in time captured forever now - 

the taste-test shall be to find the 

least guilty-pleasure type among them! 

Wait a second now... 

This means that I actually 

recharged my phone's battery... 

for this?!?

Oh well...

Let's just... move on!!! 

Note not only to self but to social media overall: 

you gotta quit recommending stuff allegedly ''for'' me! 

For *this* sort of stuff only brings about nostalgia 

of olden days... when the creativity well had not run dry yet! 

(Message to Marvel, too!)

Note to DC also: 

you're no better than your competition! 

(Axel Alonso = Greg Rucka!)

Hmm... 3 Phantom Force Jedis for me - to go! 

How YouTube links the Justice League 

to the Howard Stern Show - 

I will never know!

(can't be ME - 

I never watch Stern's show!)

You must give it its due, though: 

there is a lot of interesting stuff on YouTube...! 

... so sorry, Mark - I didn't subscribe... yet! 

But others will - in droves, I'm sure...

LUXURIOUS, they say...?

... and EXCITING...?!?

... okay, let's NOT go *there*...

... regardless of some... 

odd and surprising choices, 

sometimes...!

Yup - you guessed it all right...
