I thought we had a better liter. It’s called a quart. America uses it because it’s better. Because America is better.

The best part of drinking quarts of Budweiser would be the hangover.

Yes, indeed. But if you look at the Amazon listing it's listed as a litre liter (yeah, we spell it correctly too).

Back in the days we used to have a quite popular drinking game that used a similar glass, except that it was something like 2 liters instead of one.

The game goes as follows: The glass is initially full of beer. People are arranged in a circle and take turns drinking some beer. If a person manages to empty the glass, the previous person has to pay for the next glass. So you either leave enough in such that the next person can't empty it, or you empty it yourself.

I was quite good at it.

It was before your time, but just down the street from you they used to make these

Indeed, America needs to increase its pints and quarts to the correct amount before it starts complaining about liters.
