Beer at a Baby Shower?
Kevin and I just got an invitation to a co-ed baby shower. Sounds cool, right? I like the idea of the men taking part in the baby shower. They sure as hell took part in making the baby. So as I'm reading the invitation, I notice a section that says, "cold beer will be served for the men."
Are you effing kidding me?
This poor girl has now been without even one alcoholic beverage for 8 months, and they're going to serve alcohol at her baby shower? And only to the men? That' just not right!

Sounds like a great idea to me!
Was there a...
"P.S. Vodka will be served for the ladies. Straight up and very cold. Cheers."
???
Not right at all! You should lobby for some bloody marys.
There was no P.S.
And I am going to lobby for bloody mary's - complete with very cold vodka :)
Good call, ladies!
I think I'd need a few beers to get through a baby shower...
Yeah - don't we all :)
But the girls have been toughing it out for decades...you guys can too!
Coed showers are lame and so are those that have them!
Damn Wes - you're being a bitter bear this week!!!
All showers are lame, it's just that guys are now getting the chance to see just how lame it can get...
That is fucked up man!!

maybe if you serve beer, the gifts are better. it's an incentive program really. like if you bring some onesies and a pacifier, you get one, maybe two beers per couple. bump it up to a handmade blanket, or something thoughtful yet not on the registry, you get a six-pack. but if you pull out all the stops, maybe a changing table or a nice piece of baby-related furniture, and it's all you can drink. you have to put it into language that guys can understand afterall. guys are a simple breed...good baby gifts = lots of beer.
Oh and another afterthought...can you think of anything more special than telling your own child that they were conceived after mommy and daddy got really drunk at a baby shower? It's perpetuating the cycle...
Just show up shit-faced drunk. Fun for all. Problem solved.
Not bitter bear, just telling the truth.
Let poor kev hang out with me for a day and I will make him a man again. =)
No more baby showers for Kevin....
My friend Alyssa has barred me from hanging out with her husband anymore alone because he comes back home and shows her who is boss after 8 hours with me. =)
I am sure that the showing her who's boss probably last for about an hour, but for that hour he is THE MAN!
Sorry...I just threw up...a little bit...in my mouth.
Are you kidding me?
That beer had better not be only for the men!
Maybe they figured it was the only way to bribe the men into coming and staying. Get them drunk and they won't care.
I remember the whole time that I was pregnate my husband would ask if I wanted a wine cooler just to piss me off and then drink one in front of me. I swear all I could think about while I was pregnate was have my first alcoholic beverage once she was born. I would be pissed off if I had to watch people drinking while wishing I had one.
