El Bumpo the Magnificent guesses that you are about 42 years old… or older and really creepy.

(seriously… haven’t seen a Zima since about mid-college, when I accidentally kicked an acquaintance’s dorm fridge plug out of the wall, and he demanded later that I get him and his girlfriend another six-pack of Zima because it was skunked from getting warm. :dubious: )

Or you could get her pregnant, then marry her, and the two of you could raise your child to adulthood.

But do it all ironically.

Not all of the douchebags in your link are douchebags. That douchebag in the grey shirton the right is actually not a douchebag.

But so many opportunities for a hipster expression of ironic pacifism.

“What makes the grass grow?”  
“Pretension! Pretension! Pretension! …but I’m only into lawn care ironically”

Hey, I’m 42 and I can hear the kids making fun of me when I walk down the street:

“Nice jeans Mr. Comfortable Fit Jeans. What you couldn’t find any 3 sizes too small for you?”

or “Where’s your beard, shave-face?”

and "Where did you buy your clothes? A clothing store? Don’t they have a shop for Civil War reenactors where you’re from?

of course what really hurts:

“Nice job loser! Hey your boss called! He wants to know if you and your wife are coming over for drinks later! Seriously…Mr. Davis called and asked me to tell you that he’s flying back from Chicago a day early so he actually can make your wife’s birthday party…Also, thanks for writing that letter of recommendation for me for grad school. NYU has a really great business program.”

But Hoegaarden? Seriously? Way to push the envelope.

Also “sample cups” for beer is bullshit. Like I tell my craft beer guy. I don’t need to “try” a beer in a tiny sample cup. You try a beer by committing to one full beer.

Hah! I was just pointing out that if someone’s talking about using Zima to get high school chicks wasted, they can’t be much older than us. (knew some guys in college who used to do just that).

Yeah, with the exception of the Kasteel Rouge and the DuClaw peanut butter beer, the rest is pretty much mass-marketed craft brews. Nothing special there, and certainly not a high enough perch to be casting judgments onto Bud Light Lime drinkers from.

I used to buy Zima solely for the 3-d eye puzzle card that was attached to each 6 pack. I recall the flavor of the product to have been similar to alcoholic fresca.

Generally I like alcopops, but this sounds utterly vile.
