This is what you get when you combine German alcohol mug engineering with Mario. Great way to drink your brew while saving the Princess. By the end of the game, you won’t know whether you completed the game or not, but for some reason you’re humping your beanbag chair.

As Homer Simpson once said, “Beer. The cause of and solution to all life’s problems.”

Well, there may be more truth to that sage advice after all according to some new research by the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston. The study found that non-drinkers who begin taking the occasional drink live longer and are less likely to develop heart disease.

People who started drinking in middle age were 38 percent less likely to have a heart attack or other serious heart event than abstainers — even if they were overweight, had diabetes, high blood pressure or other heart risks, Dr. Dana King of the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston and colleagues found.

Don’t rush out and bong a six pack. The benefits are greater for wine drinkers and people who drink in moderation.

Guinness has launched Proposition 3-17, a campaign to make St. Patrick’s Day an official holiday in the US. Just to go proposition317.com to sign the petition or to just read about why they want March 17 recognized.

Guinness needs 1 million signatures to take the issue to Congress. As of this writing they had over 886,000 signatures to go. I suppose we could always use another holiday. Especially one that gives us reason to have a tasty Guinness.

In the “now I’ve seen it all” category, comes this Moaner Lisa bottle opener. She basically pops the cap off of your favorite brew with some sort of butt-cheek or perhaps vagina-muscle clenching action. As if that weren’t enough, while performing this action she cries out in orgasmic ecstacy.

Yes. Ohhh yes. Oh GOD yes!

Requires 2 AA batteries. Hey, all that orgasmic muscle power takes energy. It will cost you £4.99 and improve your sex-cred. Your neighbors will think you are getting some everytime you open a beer.

The beer-launching mini-fridge will save you the effort and hassle of leaving your couch to get another beer. The fridge has an auto-loading 10 beer magazine and can toss beers well over 10 feet. Launch and trajectory are controlled remotely with a modified keyless vehicle entry system.

Imagine the possiblilities if the guy that invented this teamed up with the potato gun guy to create some kind of fried-potato-launching device. I would never need to leave the house again.

Greatest. Invention. Ever.
