I liked it. You ARE embarassing yourself.

Time after time you shitstir. You like being 'controversial'. You try to annoy the same posters again and again. You don't actually present any arguments of your own, you just criticise others.

Well I've presented several arguments to you but you don't engasge. It's almost as if you know I'm right so you ignore the posts.

That's ok though.

Are you watching the cricket?

So they've told the original winner of the '£15,000' brass can with a bit of gold plate that he can go fuck himself.

At the time of the original complaint, the drinks firm insisted that the £15,000 valuation was “based on multiple factors” and not only the price of the gold used.

They claimed it included the price they paid for its manufacture, the metal used, the retail markup, and the "rarity and uniqueness of the cans”.

Speaking to the BBC, one of the original gold can winners, Adam Dean from Shropshire, said: "It said on the can 'you've won a £15k 24 carat gold Hazy Jane can'. Once I'd got over the shock I wanted to cover it on my house insurance.

“I got in touch with the can's makers, Thomas Lyte, who told me it was actually brass with a 24-carat gold plating.

"I had it valued by a jewellery expert. He told me it was only worth £500. I'm just totally disappointed and I want it resolved.

“I legally entered a competition to win a solid gold can but I've not got that. I asked for shares to make it up to £15,000 and Brewdog basically said no.”

When asked about what will happen with the orginal winners, BrewDog responded: "We’ve apologised for referring to the can as solid gold in the original promotion but we stand by the £15,000 valuation of the prize.

The Scots brewer's claim that the original '24 carat gold' cans were worth £15,000 has been disputed by Advertising Standards after it was revealed they were actually 'gold plated' cans.

Before you use this tactic, we can all see the previous two pages where you sidestep the debate and engage in "whatabouttery"

You can be a fan of BrewDog and admit they've ballsed up, you know.

You can be a fan of BrewDog and admit they've ballsed up, you know.

Conversely, you can be opposed to Brewdog and admit they know what they're doing, as they do seem to be rather good at this.

Why am I not surprised?

Has anyone suggested they're not consciously being cunts?

Not you, apparently.

Let's face it though, Broggers, your idea of business cunts is pretty niche. Outside of a few weirdos on this here website, it's significant only by its unimportance.

 

[Spymaster]

Of course not.

It's a triumverate of ignorance and stupidity.

In a supposedly grown man, yes it is.

Triumvirate

But tri means three. So it'd be a duumvirate or similar

You know what? I was just about to google that, so cheers!

That said, there ARE three wombatomba le bazania comba casie woosha toosha comatam. Ping!

Count them.

Really?

Must admit that I'm ignorant of that non-trad spelling of the word triumvirate.

Absolutely. You're one of my favourire posters, too.

Let’s face it, just about everyone has at least one topic of discussion where they go a bit potty.

Broggers knows his rugby, tbf.

OK...deep breath...I have a confession; I'm drinking some BD right now.

Unbeknownst to me Mrs B put a (heavily reduced) box of 12 cans of "Lost Lager" into the delivery the other day. It was nice of her to think of me & all that...but by christ, what utter fucking piss water.

Sweet, sickly and weak; what's to like?



Apologies to anyone (justifiably) offended by this post.

Yeah, yeah that's what happened, honest!

I know loads of people from all walks of life that dabble a bit in buying and selling shares.

The stats I have seen, going up to mid-2021 suggest that between 21% and 33% of people in the UK own or have owned stocks/shares. I can't vouch for their veracity but they came from companies selling financial products or investment opportunities.

 

[Saul Goodman]

Their PR people are obviously brilliant if they're convincing brogdale to buy their beer.

 

[DaveCinzano]

Yeah, yeah that's what happened, honest!

"...And then somehow I slipped as I removed my underpants..."

 

[Saul Goodman]

I wonder if it's a coincidence that brogdale is an abbreviation of BrewDog ale
