Bad tequila is for bad people. Tonight, I'm the worst.

If all tequila is bad, how can any of us be good?

Haha, imagine this: a pulp story where a private eye says my line, only to be killed by a mobster that says your line :)

Check it out:

Such a story might not be as far fetched as I assumed!

    A RED HOT RECIPE FOR RAMPAGING REVENGE Now one man must face the entire Chicago Outfit, a group of hardened Mafia enforcers, a psychotic bookie, the most dangerous hitman on earth, and Detective Jacqueline Daniels...

    His name is Tequila. And he likes those odds.

haha totally not far fetched!

I wanted to follow up on that comment. I forget how exactly now. Probably, "what exactly do you mean by bad people, hmm?"

At any rate I appreciate your succinct twist on the original statement and subsequent flash "story."

Oh, there's no real finger pointing going on, more of a faulty syllogism meant to be more evocative than meaningful. Bad = cheap, bad people = cheap people, =>"Tonight I'm the worst" = tonight I'm drinking a lot of cheap tequila, or even tonight I'm so cheap, I'm not willing to buy even the cheapest tequila.
