They can't stand for this, can they?

The British rulers are planning on taking away glass pints.

Apparently, they can break and the Brits are basically treated as children anymore, so they can't be trusted with breakables.

One plan is all plastic, another is to coat the glass with plastic.

Drinking out of plastic is only fun when it's a keg, in the woods, and you're pretty sure the girl you're talking to is going to go for a walk in the dark with you.

And plastic cups isn't even the worse plan.
"We could do something more radical, by looking at the whole shape and substance of the pint - we could come up with something that is completely different to glass.
"Remember that years ago people used to drink out of pewter tankards. It could be quite a significant paradigm shift."

I'm guessing it'll be sippy cups.

I've seen a lot of stuff that made me think, "Are they gonna stand for that?" and they freaking have.

If they allow their masters to take their freaking pint glasses, well, that's that.

I have high hopes for the Brits on this one. They kept it a "pint" after all when the EUnuchs tried to get them to stop selling pints and change it to litres.

1 The Brits have been circling the drain for a while now.

Here's some outrage from closer to home. You gotta see this shit.

2 Yeah, I saw that.
Papa Ray linked it at DPUD, I would have seen it at Gateway Pundit anyway.
I sent an email to the Reston headquarters of the Fairfax County Police.
Here's their contact page

I'm not advocating a revolution, but if cops keep acting like that, they're gonna get one.
We're Americans, our forefathers left EUnuchstan because of stuff like that, we don't think our master's been born yet.

That's totally clueless. I was born many years ago.

4 I mean "Master", not "Master Baiter".
I can see how you made the mistake.

A difference that makes no difference is no difference.

Or something to that effect.

6 I stand corrected.
Or at least, confused.

7 Pewter has too much lead in it. Titanium might work. Aluminum would be better. I gave up on the Brits back when they were whining about W all the time.

8 Plastic sippy cups.
That's my prediction if they change it.
