Not Everyone Will Settle for a 12oz Pepsi With Rum

If you ever worry that being unabashedly badass was a thing of the past, let me reignite your faith with a brief anecdote. Benny and I had just moved into our new apartment and we wanted to take our trusty movers (Chinita and Frosty) out for a thank-you-for-hauling-our-heavy-crap drink. While driving down Grand Avenue, we passed some folks hanging around a car before going inside Lucky Lounge. Nothing about them was particularly interesting except for the fact that casually resting on the roof of their car was a decanter brown paper bagged. Yes, a liquor-filled crystal decanter in a brown paper bag, personal size (see photo reenactment). If we were driving any faster or if I hadn't just given Chinita a decanter just hours prior, it would have never caught our eye. Decanters are hella tight and look fierce on any mantle or side table, but I never thought of taking one on the go. I didn't even know you could do that. Apparently some don't let the no drinking in public law hamper their style. All I can say is kudos for keeping it that real.
