    nothing new here... its been called wife beater for a while

    the humour is probably in seeing the label displaying its nickname... i dont think the joke is about the beating of wives.

    i could be wrong... however unlikely :)

    jaz?

    It tends to be the given that if you drink Stella, that you are either

    A) A football Thug
    B) A thug
    C) A Knacker
    D) A wife Beater....



    Therefore the Humour resides in the changing of the name to wife beater..... HA HA HA

    P.S No offence to stella drinkers...... however drink something that doesn't taste of cat piss...... tabby cat piss at that, with a dash of monkey spunk.

    yeah it was meant to be funny.

    why would i want to pluck humour from something so vile and just not right.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,984 ✭✭✭✭Lump


    hmmm a euro a bottle.... you'd know its not a premium larger here, in England (Carlisle) its £2 a bottle, and £2.25 a pint.

    tough crowd huh?

    Weird, in France it's popular with students, used to drink it all the time when I was there, very nice it was too.


    So anyway, what do wife beaters beat their wives at? Mortal Kombat? Poker? Snakes and Ladders?

    Is it more fun beating your wife than other ppl?

    The whole "wife beater" name is a bit weird - if you look at what the real lager louts in Britain drink, it's all manky rubbish like Carling or Bud. Stella is seen, with Grolsch and 1664, as being a decent imported beer...

    Fond of Stella as a lager personally, but then again I'm not a big lager fan.

    Humourless ****es morelike.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,894 ✭✭✭Chinafoot


    totally agree there!

    while i found it funny i have to say i found the responses even more hilarious.

    Its a humour board lads....not a "lets dissect everything people post and point out the flaws in it" board.
