Paper Bagging it!

Ahh I'm sure by the title you are thinking that I'm going green...Nah not even close!

I officially sold my house and I am soon to be Homeless. So you ask" why paper bagging it?" Well isn't that what homeless people do? Drink outta paper bags?

It's actually pretty exciting, I've never really drank out of a bottle straight, let alone a bottle covered in a paper bag. This is a look that I always thought was cool, but could never get into it. It's now time. Any chance possible I will drink from a paper bag until I am sheltered again. There will be some exeptions, like weddings, clubs and maybe my final Christmas work party., but that's about it. It would be pretty awesome to paper bag it at those events too, but then I'd have to explain why I'm doing it and that will really take away from the whole drinking thing!

Ok so I'm not officially dirty, walking around with a shopping cart, but still why are they the only ones that can pull it off. I think it could be a good thing. Less spillage cause the exess leakage will spill onto the bag and get soaked in. Or it can keep the sun away from the booze so it doesnt go skunky and the grip, well the grip is second to none. These are all benefits of the paper bag. I really think the Bum's really have something here. I assume they do it so that the bottle is covered and the police wouldn't know what's in the bag, but come on Really, have you ever seen anybody drink Orange Crush or a Chocolate Milk with a paper bag wrapped around it. Nah it's just not the same as a Bottle of Jack or a 2 litre jug of Beer. These are things that are deserving of the ol mighty bag o' paper.

Could you imagine the uproar in the Green community if Bums used plastic instead of paper?? Ok fine the dirtiness, the hairless 3 legged dog and the going through the whole garbage thing I can handle, but using all those plastic bags, it's intorerable. They would be blacklisted to the subways stations, back alleys and oh wait scratch that/

So all that to say that I am officially naming today December 3rd the official " Drinking out of paper day" I really hope it catches on, it just seems right! I will do my best to drink like this for the next few months, it's very exciting!

I challenge you to do the same...
