Mr. Not Posted November 15, 2022 Posted November 15, 2022 today i caved in and bought some 'liquid death'. it's just plain mountain water in a can, which i like, but the advertising has always been too tryhard for my liking so i've avoided it for that reason.

Mr. Not Posted December 2, 2022 Posted December 2, 2022 one thing i assume about yacht rock is that it kind of sucks but there's no way for me to tell for sure

Yacht rock is definitely a summer thing like when chilling with drinks on the boat yacht. Toto, Christopher Cross, Jimmy Buffett, a lot of Chicago, I'm not really a fan. Yacht rock is a little soft for guy so metal like me. 1
