Driven to Drink

45. 1 Girl, 2 Cups...of Beer


Listen Later

The beers:

Greg = Southern Tier Choklat Oranj with Wigle Orange Bitters.

Jen = Rogue Imperial IPA in a 750 ml crockery bottle.

The plot:

Jen makes one of the biggest mistakes of her life. “I had a little time between clients,” she said. So she found the perhaps not-entirely-innocuous, “13 Most Deranged Halloween Pumpkins Ever Carved” article to the startlingly nocuous, “2 Girls, 1 Cup: A Love Story.” (I refuse to link you there. If you feel the need to watch it, go watch it. I will not lead you there nor will I mince words. I do not watch beheadings and I will not watch “2 Girls, 1 Cup: A Love Story.”  A fucking love story.  Yikes.)

The description lured her in:

What is Two Girls One Cup?

Two girls one cup is a trailer that was released in 2007 for the artistic film “Hungry Bitches” made by MFX Media. The daring work of art is an allegory for the concept of spiritual awakening. It examines the prevalent ideologies that are internalized in our culture, and in true post-modern form; the thematic piece tends to raise more questions than answers. The philosophical film has varying interpretations, which is why the 2 girls 1 cup film is still analysed and debated about to this date.

The fact that the tab-icon for the video is the smiley poo-pile did not dissuade her.

The fact that animated biracial anal porn GIFs populate the screen also did not dissuade her.

Here are a few of the comments just below the video, which apparently did not dissuade her:

“What did I watch?!”

“Ohhhhh fuck.”

“How in gods name can ppl do that kinda shit! That’s just NOT RIGHT!”

“that is fucked
what have i just watched”

So…perhaps you can’t resist. And perhaps you’ll make it through the entire video, which is only 1 minute. Jen apparently made it through about 10 – 15 seconds, then deleted our entire browser history and had a nice, hot shower.

But if you’re smart…you’ll just listen to our podcast, have a few laughs, and count yourself among the lucky who have avoided it and heeded the words of my spoiler: It involves 2 girls, 1 cup, and copious amounts of shit.

And by the way, have you seen that Squatty Potty commercial? The one with the Unicorn. THAT…you should watch. (You can venture to that video by clicking on the photo below.) But even this piece of edgy alt-comedy humor gets kind-of ruined in light of the smiling poo icon and all that it now represents.

We present to you, “1 Girl, 2 Cups…of Beer.”

 
 
(Yep. It’s kind-of like that.)
