    How about you buy one to see if it becomes valuable in a couple (or 50) years? Remember, don't drink any of them so the possibility of increasing value might increase. :wink:

    That's weird. Does the "Case of the Mondays" pun even make sense in Québécois?

    Looks like you can get a DVD of Office Space that offers both English and French, so maybe the movie was as big of a cult classic in Canada too?

    Well, at least Canadians can get a case of les Lundis. :wink:

    shouldn't it say a 12 pack of the mondays as that is not a case...

    !@#$ Shrinkflation! (See @Jaycase post #4)

    Even before that, it was well known that you "can't trust that day", even repeated it twice, for emphasis I guess.

    I presume you're referring to this one:

    Don't MAKE me go all Carpenters on you. :wink:

    (besides, the Rats were telling a true, ugly, if not timely, story :grimacing:)

    Yeah, I didn't want to bring that up - there's enough bad news around currently, why be reminded of more in the past. :slight_frown:

    Being highly susceptible to them myself, I try not to set off earworms in others.:grimacing:

    Because if we don't remember the past we're destined to... oh wait, nevermind. :confused:

    Another issue as long as they're translating. Why "LIGHT" and not "LEGERE" (middle E should have accent grave)?

    No Self Respect would be a fitting new name for Coors. :sweat_smile:

    Since this beer is largely water, we must be aware of the dangers of overconsumption of this insipid product - Hyponatremia.

    "a temporary marketing stunt."

    Sounds about right.

    Big pile of this crap sighted at Walmart in Waverly, IA, this afternoon. Feel free to shoot me a trade request.

    I thought it was going to be David & David's Welcome to the Boomtown. I'll take the Boomtown Rats, instead. I still haven't seen these Coors Light packs in the local stores, but I'm sure we'll get them here on the Cape in the coming weeks.

    Yeah, I was playing on a phrase... you might be the only one who got it. :wink:

    Love D&D.

    Aww ... damn. Don't you hate when you want something and think, "Oh, I'll remember that..." and don't bother to write it down or make a list when you go shopping and then get confused and buy the wrong beer?

    "Wait --- what day was it?"

    Although, I always though this was the perfect beer named after a favorite time of mine: QUITTIN' TIME from Pearl Brewing Co.

    ... and it turns out, it's been revived!
    (Of course it has been...:rolling_eyes: Is nothing sacred?)
