Thanks guys. And the wedding ring works easily. I have a tungsten carbide ring, supposedly only a diamond can scratch it (and it doesn't bend either) so what better way to test this than with some microbrews! No scratches, no problem. I will never be without an opener again.

In case any of you bastards care, it's an Irish claddagh ring, pretty sweet IMO. She's a great girl, as some of you know. Here's a pic of the ring, and a pic of going through the metal detector at the courthouse.

I wear a Claddagh wedding ring as well. I can tell you from experience it opens beer bottles with ease.

Nice work RA!!

nothing wrong with the jop wedding. i did it and it stuck for 8 years so far. we did it outside so god could see us and make sure we weren't mastubating. the catholics tell me he hates that.
it's all good in the woods, nobody hears me when i scream.

also, the jop is my father-in-law so the whole self-pleasuring thing would have been just plain weird.

Every sperm is sacred, every sperm is great
If a sperm gets wasted, God gets quite irate.

Let the heathens spill theirs, on the dusty ground
God will make them pay for each sperm that can't be found.

if you hit the bottle off a wall or something similar at the right angle it takes off the bit of the neck with the cap on pretty cleanly

That'd look rather fetching, but attempted drunkenly it sounds like a certain recipe for a half spilled beer & badly cut hand.

It is now scientifically proven that drinking lots of beer leads you to living with a cute brunette.

I used to open beer with a folded up sheet of paper, but I can never get it right anymore

I almost got in a wreck trying to open a beer with the opener on my key ring while it was in the ignition. It takes two hands (neither one on the wheel), and some other part of your body to steer. I'm better at it now, even done it with a smoke lit, but by no means have I mastered it.
