Dec 18 2008'Tis The Season: Beer Bottle Christmas Trees
With Jesus' surprise roller-skating party just a week away, I thought I'd spread some holiday drunkeness in the form of beer bottle Christmas trees. This first one is made from 1,050 bottles, and there's a video after the jump of a Heineken tree with over 2,000. Also, I added a video of some drunkard making a Jagermeister tree out of a big piece of plywood and airplane bottles. It's amazing the time and effort people put into these things. A thousand bottles, 200 lights, 60 man-hours of labor, and one drunk Geekologie Writer to bring it all crashing down. Feliz cumpleaños, Jesus! And tell Santa I'll post nudey pics of Mrs. Claus if he pulls that coal shit again this year.
Hit it for the other videos.
Thanks to Britany, who once made a Christmas tree out of cake but I ate it. Those ornaments were delicious!

That is really cool... Plus it gets you into the christmas cheer thing, like happy... only drunk!
My problem is the planning.... I would decide to build a tree like that, go out and buy a load of beer, and try to drink it all the same nite I wanted to build the tree...

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadows are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max gets really drunk on christmas eve and is visited by 3 ghosts - the ghost of beers past the ghost of beer present and the ghost of beer yet to come. Max is reminded of how he loved beer as a lad, and that he needs to continue to drink beer and be merry or his life and the life of those around him will be very sad indeed.

I'll stick to my "I'm not decorating this year because I'm 3,000 f***ing miles from my family and I'm going to a friend's house for Christmas so why the hell would I bother to put stuff up when no one will see it" excuse.
But if someone else wants to make one of these, I can donate a few beer bottles.

Dun dun duuuuuuuuun (<----sounds like dramatic prairie dog)
15. QUASIMODEM - December 18, 2008 2:12 PM
Ha! Jagermeister.
Jesus.

I just did the math (I have a calculator, whee) and If I drink a six pack of beer a day for the next year, that would give me 2190 bottles. Damn, thats a lot of beer to make a tree....for next year. I like to drink beer and all, but that's quite a commitment.
Everyone knows, drinking beers and making commitments don't mix.

I am endlessly underestimating Alcoholism - except of course at funerals.

Back up off my cheese bitches!

Just curious; is the Moose Knuckle to the Cameltoe what Cougar is to MILF?
20. Pew³ - December 18, 2008 3:36 PM
19. I thought Cougars were cougars cause they were single older women with no kids. No kids, no MILF.
A moose knuckle is just an enourmous version of a camel toe.

.18 I'm not on your cheese, if she is, in fact, your cheese. Just a casual observer.
I'm just saying, oh yeah, we've seen her.

I gotta say...the camera moves and music choices were excellent on that vid! Very smooth for stop-motion.
25. formerly SPELLINGNAZI - December 18, 2008 6:11 PM
...the first one, not the Jager one...

28. BigDumDav - December 19, 2008 11:23 AM
I sometimes turn on my kitchen light with my elbow...
I'll shoot some video of it.
Please post.

29. Sammywa - December 19, 2008 11:53 AM
Gosh, I love the programming of the lights on the Jagermeister one. It'd be great to be able to put a show like that on.
