As you know the Wall Street Journal prides itself on uncovering the big stories that are not yet being told. They were the first to bring the serious issue of chest hair (to flaunt or not to flaunt) to light, they talked about spray tanning when no one else would and I know I don’t have to remind you it was Rupert’s crack investigative team that blew the lid off Cankles. This morning, they’ve done it again, with a Page One feature on drinking. Sometimes people do it!
Sometimes people drink so much they get drunk. How does this happen? It’s a fairly complex issue to understand, especially to the laymen, but it generally involves going to bars. There, patron lured into lapping this shit up and often times places will entice them to drink even more by offering these so-called “two for one” packages, probably something originally created by Goldman Sachs. What happens next you ask? The Journal worked on this story for a while so obviously we’ve got answers. What happens is that “some pretty colorful behavior” ensues. It’s wild. I can’t say anymore. Just watch.
Most surprising was that the drunks in question were British. Impossible I say! Mr. Belvedere was British, and never would he allow alcohol to befoul his lips.
I drink, therefore I am.
Sniff, sniff. Woof, woof. Drink, drunk.

Won’t someone PLEASE think of the children!
the only thing worst than a mean drunk is obama
After listening to this reporter, I either need to drink 20 stellas or stick ice pick in my ears
Avoid drinking if handing out prizes at the Market Snodsbury Grammar School.
god the welsh are ugly
I’m with #6. I just about cracked open the safety reserve at my desk to get through listening to that reporter.
@7 AB – I’m P.K. Purvis’s great grandson!
The Welsh are indeed very ugly! Especially the chicks.
reminds me of the rbs christmas party
@10 – I see you inherited his spelling and punctuation. Congrats.
I call bullshit. There’s no such place as “Whales.” I suppose next you’re going to be tell me there’s a “West” Virginia.
The Snodsburries taste like Snodsburries…

@13/AB Just remember not to be a pessimist.
Bess on fire today!
I want my 153 seconds back…Bess… that was trite
mmmmmmmmm fillet-o-fish……..
@19 wait, you read the whole post, dripping with disdain for the wsj’s retarded story, and you want to blame others for going ahead and watching the video?
ugh. Rupert’s taking that paper to shit. The NY Times has nothing to worry about.
This is the Greg Michaels of WSJ stories.
Fink-Nottle.
booze is the answer. i forgot the question.
They must have been drunk when they tried to spell “Ambulance” on that vehicle at 0:55 !!
jean whalen…WTF…was she reading the obits, or chumming for cod?
@24: FTW with the Wodehouse reference
Dear god, did anyone else hear the tally of drinks that wildebeast at the beginning consumed?
“Half a bottle of Jack Daniels, 4 pints, 6 bottles of Stella”
Probably why she’s built like a linebacker.
This story brings new meaning to “Big Bird.”
@ 29 – I’m a fan of the booze as much as anyone else but I couldn’t even handle that shit in my college days and sounds “as sober” as she did. If she wasn’t so f-ing ugly, she would be my soul-mate. God bless the Brits (despite their disgusting appearance).
@29 Was that all….. come on add some fried chicken to the mix….long MCD
Finally WSJ does it right!
Hey..! Party Cardiff..! Where the hell is Cardiff? Tiger Bay? Is that a club?
@26
Bring Amberlamps!
I live in Cardiff and I can say from first hand,,that the media is biased,,that my home city is not as bad a the media,, especially WSJ has painted it,,Cardiff is a wonderful city ,,full of lovely architecture and history,,and is no worse that any other city in the UK, for alchohol related incidents,, and has a murder rate of less that 2 per year,,how many US cities can boast that?
Is that Bartiromo in the red Top?
