Mr_Canada Mr_Canada: It's fantastic when people treat full-grown Canadian adults like fricken children. Ugh. Sure, we'll let you kill your liver, but see a (fake glass) skull? No, that would be baaaaaaaad.  Say hello to the "nanny state". Cradle to Grave.

It would be nice if we would just get rid of the LCBO.

2Cdo 2Cdo: Arctic_Menace Arctic_Menace: Okay, it's official; FUCK Ontario. I know this is my home province, but Jesus, they take the fun out of everything. We killed our own homegrown electric car, you can't keep skunks as pets, we bailed out failing companies, we have tools leading our provincial parties, we do crap like this; I'm fed up. Just the tip of the iceberg here with the Dalton gang in charge. It would take far too long to list his screwups, many which are monumental! To be perfectly fair, every major party has had the chance to govern this province for a long amount of time and ALL of them have fucked up colossally. First it was the NDP, then the Conservatives, and now the Liberals. Poor Ontario.

I for one, feel MUCH safer knowing the LCBO won't sell skull shaped bottles. What next? Alcohol that promotes pirates? (I'm lookin' at you "Captain" Morgan  )

Holy crap that bottle makes me want some! That would also make a cool Halloween decoration, and it would keep on giving until the bottle was empty! DAMN YOU LCBO! DAMN YOU!!!!

sandorski sandorski: Nice to hear of the Brands success. The LCBO concerns seem extremely stupid. Wow. It's rare we agree but for that decision, I'm with you. Totally stupid. You know in the comics when they want to represent alcohol they put "XXX" on it ? What if a brand decides to use that symbol. Does it mean "Three strikes, you're out ?". (for Brenda, I loved this symbol (XXX) everywhere in Amsterdam  )

Like they said in the article, it sells for about 50-60 dollars. It's a good way to distinguish your product from the other one. N'est-ce pas Lemmy ? Isn't that competition and diversity is about ? It would look good on a shelve (after you have drunk it, of course ![Drink up [B-o]](./images/smilies/drinkup.gif) )

Article Article: “I like it, it kind of makes the product more appealing in my view,” Mr. Aykroyd told me over the phone last week from Texas. “This is a decision that’s been made reflecting the appeal of the product, because the board is rightly concerned that under-aged drinkers may go to illegitimate means to obtain a bottle of Crystal Head, maybe steal it or whatever.” What the fuck ? That's the reason ? Because the bottle is appealing ?
