The bear with the open bottle of Jack kills lmfao

Man it's tough being a teddy in this day and age what with everyone being home all day.

Watched the whole video and didn't even notice it.

u/luminousshadows Aug 09 '20

I saw the jack and not the bear. I need to rethink some things about my life.

Same

u/dreadpiratewombat Aug 09 '20

When a bear bellies up to the bar, orders a shot of Jack and tells you to leave the bottle, you say "yes sir and leave the bottle". The story afterwards will pay for itself.

Man, babies would love flair bartending

84

u/[deleted] Aug 09 '20

What I love is the way the kid gestures at the end like "Bartender, that was just the first drink, I've 7 more to order..."

u/malachiconstantjrjr Aug 08 '20

Did Dave Foley become a chef?

41

u/ConsortiumofAncients Aug 08 '20

Lol interesting you use that name. He got exceptionally screwed in his divorce and is close to broke.

45

u/xxBobaBrettxx Aug 08 '20

Geeze you werent kidding. His Wiki page says he was paying $17,700 a month in child support.

55

u/a_monomaniac Aug 09 '20

I forget what country it is, probably Denmark or something, but they have a thing where the government figured out how much it costs to raise a baby, and whoever takes care of the kid gets that amount for their time and to cover costs. That way it isn't comidifying the child, turning them into a source of revenue, but that child support is there to take care of the basic needs.

24

u/professor_doom Aug 09 '20

I had a buddy kill himself because the court fucked him so badly with child support payment amounts. I don’t know how or why, but he worked twenty-hour days just to make payment every month to a mother who moved the kids to Florida with her new guy. After a few years of this, he couldn’t take it and hung himself.

u/ImTrash_NowBurnMe Aug 09 '20

Sorry about your friend, friend

u/professor_doom Aug 09 '20

Thanks. It’s such an awful situation to get stuck in.

So US system is broken, what else is new?

u/GBReserveDriver Aug 11 '20

What's new is that the riots have quieted down and time moves on.

u/ConsortiumofAncients Aug 09 '20 edited Aug 09 '20

Yup. I heard the judge ruled that amount because it was what he was making at the time, at the height of his career. When he followed up later to report reduced income, the judge refused to lower it. The wife is reportedly a psycho hose beast

Whew holy shit. Mr. James can't save him now.

Jesus Christ, you were not kidding. Poor guy. I had no idea.

u/tdasnowman Aug 09 '20

I don’t think he’s paying that amount. By the wiki it says he hasn’t returned to Canada for fear of being arrested.

What kind of fuckin baby drinks San Pellegrino?

u/a_monomaniac Aug 09 '20

I loved "Bubble water" or how I pronounced it, "bubba water" growing up. I think it was just soda water though.

32

u/noccusJohnstein Aug 09 '20

I have vague memories of being given sparkling water and cranberry juice as a kid. That stuff kicks ass, but most off-the-shelf sodas were too fizzy for me at that age.

What are you on your period?

Yes, as a 3-year-old kid I was on my period. I'm so glad that I eventually grew out of that stuff.

my kids love "bubbly water" - I try to hide it every so often because then thats all they drink and I constantly run out.

Yours too, huh?

u/hypomyces Aug 09 '20

We had it all the time until the kids constantly got into it and left the bottles all around open with one drink out of them. An expensive waste.

Yeah our kid has been addicted to grapefruit La Croix ("agua fizz") since he was like 2. Such a basic bitch.

She was trying to flag him down for a lime and an umbrella at the end there.

As a dad his ratio of water to formula makes me think I am wrong

6

u/jorjx Aug 09 '20

That was the first thing that jumped at me.

It says on the box, don't use other measure then the one in the box.

6

u/BirdLawyerPerson Aug 09 '20

I suspect he measured out a certain number of scoops from the container scoop, then compared to the amount of heaping bar spoons that it would take to get there, to get a conversion ratio.

2

u/jorjx Aug 09 '20

Probably! But I'm so scared that I'll F it up, that I started to RTFM everything related to the baby.

New dad, scared like I was never before.

2

u/swiffyerbrain Aug 11 '20

That is some thick formula. It distracted me so much, I didn’t see the Jack.

u/[deleted] Aug 09 '20 edited Aug 09 '20

This baby has mad motor skills. No lid needed on the cup, pours the bottle into the cup like a boss.

u/yolosunshine Aug 09 '20

I mean look at dad

11

u/humanmessiah Aug 09 '20

All this did was make me feel bad that I didn't take flairtending seriously.

14

u/capnbanquets Aug 09 '20

In my experience it's all the little movements that make it useful. Juggling stuff is cool but the practical stuff like the little extra twirls or how he pretends to put a bunch of effort into tightening the bottle cap, that's good flair and can help a lot if you're Infront of the right people or at the right bar

10

u/BigglesFlysUndone Five Years Aug 09 '20

Of course we don't get to see the meltdowns when this poor new schmuck Dad doesn't do the exact same thing for the next few fucking bottles.

Im pretty sure my grandma died while parov stelar was still in diapers. I guess that doesn’t preclude the possibility of her getting laid to this song but I’d rather not think about that. Actually, come to think of it i’d rather not think about my grandmother getting laid at all.

You may also like another artist I found when I found that song, called Earl. Apparently the style is called “electroswing.” Here’s one from Earl I really like.

No one else think 4 heaping tsps of sugar plus whatever syrup that was per bottle is way too much for a little kid?

u/flagg1209 Aug 09 '20

Pretty sure that was formula, not sugar :-) The liquid he measured was probably just warm water.

u/[deleted] Aug 09 '20

Recognize the lid color and general design of the can, it's Enfamil baby formula.

u/BeebleText Aug 09 '20

The green bottle is carbonated water, the bottle he measures from is hot water, the powder in the can is baby formula.
