My college banned red solo cups as part of their stricter drinking policy so the local Meijer and Walmart started selling them in purple, blue, and yellow...
Something similar happened to my college.
God Bless America 🇺🇸
Capitalism at its finest!
Malicious compliance 😌
Meijer 👌
What are they gonna do.
"You apparently sent me a lifetime supply"
Me, an American: Oh you mean a July 4th Weekends's worth
Yeah. I thought that just require one big enough party. I'm Mexican, so I know that would last just one party.
I was thinking that that's probably about the right amount for a regular house party.
There's a "keeper" Red Solo Cup you can buy. It's hard plastic with which you can microwave instant coffee/water/tea/Cup O' Noodles.
Hahaha yes! or half of one college party
Beat me to this comment.
Idea for the solo cups: have them appear randomly in the background of your videos but never acknowledge why
^^^^^This
Wear them as hats.... You could be like a mini Devo.
@ Sean S , Yes!!! Across ALL of the Channels he hosts!
Or draw a face on one and call it Danny
@@theboggernaut : Or write "Simon" on one, and move it around from off-screen for the whole video, as if the cup is actually talking.
Probably only good for one video though.
Simon: What am I supposed to do with all these cups?
Also Simon: “Welcome to the Beer Pong Channel...”
I'm pretty sure Simon was drunk while making this.
This is not a complaint.
Yes, he’s not usually so slapdash. 😁
I need more drunk simon!
@@MaggieTheCat01 I'm getting slapdash tonight
Blizness Blaze, yep
I rather enjoy this Simon! I enjoy the other version too lol
Simon: "Just stop eating"
Me *with a mouthful of chips ruining my diet*: "IT'S NOT THAT EASY SIMON"
Kris OMG, I really am eating chips. 😳
Oh yes. Now I want a bowl of chips.... (Crisps for my British friends).
Same.... but a lemon curd slathered bagel. Mmmmmm carbs
In my experience it's way easier to control your diet at the supermarket than in the kitchen.
I was eating the second half of my burger from dinner last night
Lol
11:43 "I'm just me... And Danny, and Sam, and Brian the meme accountant, and now all of these Solo cups..."
Business Blaze is just Simon going insane and talking to the voices in his head, confirmed.
*holds cups like an gargantuan dong: “I am a child.” 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
I was very confused by this comment before starting the video...
It didnt help that I first read gargantuan as orangutan... 😅😅😅😅
🤣🤣🤣
A black child clearly.
@@omgandwtf1 um, I'm white and I'd have done the same shit. Get yo racist ass outta here, tf😂🤡
Looks at cups drooping for a long...
The AYDS candy people should have adopted a completely different name. Like, how about one of the signs of the zodiac? For example, Cancer.
^^^ Under appreciated joke! :D
hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe. he.
@Brendan Cronin The ones I really feel sorry for are the Corona beer people.
when he mentioned rebranding i was certain they would go with : health invigorating vitamins and : ''get fitter with hiv'' :)
@Brendan Cronin, anyone genuinely knowledgeable about the horoscope doesn't think that. The rest of them can just piss off.
The AYDS thing reminded me of Futurama, when they renamed Uranus to avoid all the jokes, and they called it Urectum.
Sometimes I forget how good Futurama was
@@-yttrium-1187 I miss that show! They should do another movie! Futurama and King of the Hill are my two favorite shows.
Urectum damn near killed em
Futurama still runs on tv, SYFY and Comedy Central. It's also on Netflix. I catch it whenever I'm home alone. No one else in the family sees the hilarity in it 🤷🏾♀️

"This is blizness blaze" well that's really telling about what's in the cup.
Indeed.
Are the cups shipped in multiples of 420? 😂

Cocaine......allegedly

Whenever you see a Solo cup, you just assume the person is drunk....oh and beer pong.
If you watch all of his channels you can tell he is... He's extremely loose and and looking around reaching for his cup.
Beer pong, just looked it up. It looks super fun. We played a different game : you had to correctly tap your hands on the table in chain of other people and in sequence or you drink. If you curse you drink a double. Good times.
@@eval_is_evil There are soooo many drinking games in the US, it is legit ridiculous.
Are you implying he isn't? lol
@@eval_is_evil we used to play a couple games:
Fast break- two teams of two players take turns throwing pingpong balls across a table aiming to hit the opposing teams tall boy beer cans placed in the corners of the table. If the ball hits the can the thrower can begin chugging his/her own beer until the loose ball is returned and tapped on the table. If the thrown ball misses the can no drinking can be done. After both balls are returned, the opposing team throws until one team finishes their beers (and wins the game).
Landmines- (a smaller circular table works best) players take turns spinning quarters(or whatever coins you have) drinking only when the quarter is spinning, and having to pick up the coin before it stops spinning. If the player fails to pick the coin up before it stops spinning, they have to spin(and drink) again. Once a beer is finished, the player can bank the can for later placement(placing a can directly on top of a spinning coin is a dick move, but totally acceptable), or place it immediately anywhere on the table as an obstacle for other players coin spinning. No real aim other than to get your friends more drunk then they get you, but fun all the same.
Business Blaze idea: use at least 2 red cups as a string telephone to "communicate " with Danny in the basement
Why would Simon need a sting phone if he can just scream at Danny as usual?
@@eveyoung3656 Danny can "communicate" back as part of the skit
I approve of this
I thought danny was in a different city or country? Lololol
@@mm44jesus he's clearly chained up near the boiler
"I don't know what to do with all of these."
Americans: ".....throw a kegger....?"
Beer pong?
@@bryanblatz2001 Beer pong!
Millimeters of Mercury he can't. Social distancing.
Beer Pong with rules. That was fun.
Thats exactly what I was thinking. Have some friends over and a bunch of strangers too. Have a traditional American College party. You won't regret it! Even when you've fallen asleep by the toilet using the dirty plunger as a pillow. Nor 10 days later when you test positive for covid19. Its worth it.
Simon- “What to do with these cups?”
Americans- “BEER PONG”
This comment is underrated
even as a Canadian I said, in a slightly raised voice, "Beer Pong!"
You guys obviously haven’t upped yourselves to the challenge of ultimate beer pong - same game, but with glasses, mugs & any container you can find in the house/shed, all of different sizes/heights.
I thought people were born, knowing? Beer-pong!
that was exactly my thought too. lol
When you get that UA-cam plaque, you should present Danny his on the show. We all want to see Danny. Then you can chain him back to the radiator in the basement.
That would be incredible, probably won’t happen for a while though with them being on different sides of Europe and all the disease going about atm
@@stonedjesus9814 not really an issue anymore, we can by now travel about the EU pretty freely again. Since the UK isn't a member anymore they kinda did their own thing and still mandate 14 days self-isolation upon entry, but I think that's gonna end very soon as well.
@@cedricfranzen8558 ireland has 14 day quarantine too.
@@stonedjesus9814 They could do it remotely, like with their podcasts. Get the whole crew on at once, from wherever they are.
I’m not so sure. Maybe Danny should remain the mysterious man. He is like a great book triggering my imagination and creating a grandiose world in my mind.
Me: Turns on the old UA-cam machine.
UA-cam: Hey, have you seen Simon Whistler's new channel?
Me: Yes, I saw it yesterday.
UA-cam: No, I mean the new new one.
All those channels I dont think his joking about the coke use
Does the man even sleep?
Pebble Person no, therefore all the cocaine
That's not a lifetime supply, that's just one house party in America. I've cleaned up that many after a party before.
Ipip
Yup its our paassion to waste that many
It would make sense hes like FUCK IT covid ruined my gathering HERE HAVE SOME DAMM CUPS!
Hey! I got an Idea! USE the red solo cups. That’s what we do in the America’s’s . That stack would last MAYBE one party. 🇺🇸America!
Of course there are Americans who will wash and reuse Solo cups until they break apart. They'll last awhile, I'm sure, but you won't have enough left to pass on to your kids.
Simon: *holding red Solo cup* “Welcome to Blizznas Blaze...”
Me: “Wait, Simon, are you drunk?”
Yeh.
"british guy with American things yelling at you"
i love it lol
I love how "allegedly" is just becoming a smooth part of your vocabulary. Do you ever find it slipping out in your non-youtube life? Like be heading out to the office, say bye to the wife, "I love you.......
Allegedly".
I find it slipping out on me.
Allegedly.
I do it at work, a lot. Because of Simon.
Allegedly, I've gotten my husband who doesn't even watch this channel to say it.
Allegedsly
😅😅😅😅😅✌️🤣🤣🤣🤣
Simon: "I'm so lazy"
Also Simon: *runs a billion UA-cam channels a day, plus 2 podcasts a month*
Simon: "If you don't know who Rupert Murdoch is, he's the guy who owns ..."
Americans: Fox News
I was too young for social media when Myspace was big, so this was the first time I found out he bought it! I’m surprised there hasn’t been a right-wing exodus there, though I suppose we’ll still have to wait and see. I’ll steer clear 😅🤦🏾♀️🇺🇸
I've been pronouncing it "fawks" news
As in "no fawks given" "news".
Pretty telling about a network when most of the even vaguely watchable things on the network ALL make MANY MANY MANNNNNNNY jokes about how awful Fox/Murdoch is. Never ONCE have I EVER seen a joke PRAISING either the network or its owner, UNLESS it is coming from a character that is shown as AGGRESSIVELY conservative/Republican (sometimes just because the character in question is elderly), and so is intended to be hyperbolic and I s intended to express the character's conservatism (similar to how Stephen Colbert used to act when he first started doing the Colbert Report, or to use an example from the former Fox network lineup, Stan Smith on American Dad)
It functions to show the character as ignorant, bigoted, racist, etc, and the audience's laughs are supposed to come from mocking this character, from his(or, less often, her) sheer stubborn buffoonery.
Otherwise, just about every joke on this subject is a detraction of either Murdoch himself or the, let's be polite and say, "less-than-stellar" record of honesty and journalistic ethics to be found in the company's actions.
Just something I've always found fascinating.
Honestly Simon, that sort of behavior 0:48 is EXACTLY what I expect whenever the Red Solo Cups come out.
"This is the Bliznus Blaze," @ 1:34 was my favorite part. I just about died.
Here is an idea for the cups: let Danny out of the basement and play a game of beer pong. If he wins, you let him have 10 minutes of sunlight for once.
Why take Danny out of the basement? Just play pong down there...you don't even have to unchain him from the radiator.
Nein!!!
“I don’t know what I’m going to do with all these Red Solo cups...”
You have a party, Simon. You. Have. A. Party.
It's just that easy... Can confirm, from Texaa
As an American college alumnus (go Badgers) I wasn’t aware of any other use for Solo cups than a party (5 bucks... er Euro a cup).
Also "fill em up"
Not just a party. Invite us all to a Business Blaze party!!!! :D
kaboombox Or you start an a cappella group: ua-cam.com/video/4vP1Z5tmww4/v-deo.html
Just the phrase “If there was a candy called, like Ebola,” caught me so off guard and cracked me up
I remember on some program on E! they had a spoof commercial for 'E cola," talking about how it won't sell because it sounds too much like two deadly diseases, Ebola and E-coli.
"I make decisions that I regret!" Sounds like the Solo cups are working, then.
😘😂👍
"Hehehe! I am a child." This had me lmao. I've been a fan of all of Simon's other channels for over a year now and even started watching megaprojects before recently deciding to see what the big deal was about business blaze. But now I see and now binge watch this channel a lot. Unhinged business blaze Simon is freaking amazing!
I've also noticed some business blaze Simon leaking into megaprojects which I am perfectly fine with btw.
Speaking of Solo cups. When a red-haired friend broke her leg, she invited her friends to come join her in a game of Boilermaker-Pong-Ball-In-The-Solo-Cup game. The idea was, each time someone participated in the feast, they were invited to sign her white cast with a cute little phrase (using permanent Sharpie markers of all colors). As a participant, she was allowed to have the first gulp of each cup. The game went on for an unusually long period of time and fuzziness, and as it did, the large cast filled up with ever longer and more rambling sayings (like Simon in our video here). The following morning my friend discovered that her white cast was covered with every kind of colorful saying and descriptive word...and it continued right off the cast and onto her distinctively red-freckled skin at, uhm, well, places that were quickly covered when she got dressed. It became known as the "Red-And-White-And-Color-All-Over" party. She saved that cast for years. Never underestimate the power of a Solo cup Simon.
Okay, I'm late to this, but that peanut thing was NO JOKE. My mom and I ate ice cream that was later recalled for having the contaminated peanut butter in it and got salmonella. We aren't represented in the statistics because we were just barely not sick enough to be hospitalized, but we were both seriously ill for 5 days. Even though our cases were relatively mild, it's the sickest I've ever been in my life. I'm glad that guy went to jail.
Ideas for the cups: trivia beer pong, written by Danny. I would pay money for that tbh.
I'm still waiting for the being drunk and doing business Blaze, not only with Danny but was Simon to that would be great
I agree Trivia beer bong!
If they made a business blaze, playing beer pong.....
It may go viral
The only good virus this year
I want this so badly!
150 Solo cups a "lifetime supply"
Is this a British joke I'm too American to understand?
A single tube of toothpaste IS a lifetime supply, if the owner doesn't know how to use toothpaste....
Simon knows he's not going to meet more than 300 hot perverted girls in his lifetime
Nope, just in Britain we tend to give people actual glasses to drink out of at parties, or clear plastic cups if things might get wild. The red solo cup is very much American, probably why he doesn't know what to do with them.
@@satansbarman just don't serve lemonade in them... we made some and the juice melted the inside which in retrospect was probably toxic...
It's an amazing thing we Brits invented called 'exaggerating'
"I make decisions that I regret." Common statement made in the presence of hundreds of empty Solo cups strewn around the floor...though usually not so articulately. Allegedly.
1. This channel isn't sponsored.
2. Raid: Shadow Legends contacted me for sponsorship.
3. This channel still isn't sponsored.
Right answer!
25:35 auto closed captions turned “dodgy peanuts” into “orgy peanuts.” Please no one change this.
Solo Suggestion: Sell limited edition autographed cups on purchthemerch.
People will buy them.
I was thinking the same thing.
Maybe including snapple cap type trivia written by Danny?
Do eeeet!
Sign them... They will come.
He could also grab a friend and learn to play beer pong, perhaps the best American drinking game ever invented
Well obviously the only reasonable thing to do with those solo cups is just stack the cups into a massive pyramid and come busting through them to start a video
Oh yes. Yes. Yes!
I second this motion!
Don't give them n idea for yet another channel on the tubes lol. The red cup challenge channel or the ilk.
Only if he buys the appropriate Hulk Hands
The only reasonable thing to do.
I think the Red Solo Cups should just be part of the foreground from now on.
10 min: "Anybody that has an idea what to do with these cups, please let me know!"
Me and everybody else in America: "Beer Pong?"
Omg a BB Beer Pong video!!
This is my first Business Blaze vid, and honestly this is a whole new side of Simon Whistler compared to stuff like Today I Found Out. Im in love. This was excellent.
I remember when I first found this channel. Brace yourself, cause you have no idea what you are getting into!
Welcome noob this will become your new favourite channel there no filter here lol
Thanks Karl Smallwood, he was the one to try it first and it gives them the confidence to go this route
Very loose - I like this side of Simon!
I agree!!!
That woman who got fired and didn't remind the company to renew their lease is a LEGEND!

The tone shift from Today I found out to business blaze can really catch you off guard. Went from Metal of Honor and Knight hood, to Simon laughing at his Solo cup dong.
The further you go down the rabbit hole of channels, the less appealing calm Simon becomes, and the more you'll crave chaos
Simon do you know about the measurement marks on a solo cop? The lowest ring is 1 oz (booze), middle is 5 oz (wine) and the top two are 12oz and a pint (beer)
👀😳
Pure GENIUS.
Simon: Does spiel during the first nine minutes.
Cups: 🍆
Simon, 9 1/2 minutes into the video: *Mindlessly puts hand on* 🍆
Cups: 💥
Simon: 😶
😂
😂😂😂
You pour a beer into the cup, drink half, then leave it on the counter at your friends house. Bonus points if you can also leave them in the bathroom, garage, living room and laundry room. But never, ever, ever in the bedroom.
07:18
Every dad in the pub after lockdown: “Bottle of Corona, Hold the virus” xD
Every bartender: -_-
Unfortunately the bartenders can't "hold the virus." All the bars around here opened back up & then all the staff tested positive for COVID-19 so they had to shut down again. The people that are stupid enough to flock to bars during quarantine deserve to get it. If that's not Darwinism at work, I don't know what is.
You want a limes disease with your corona?
Also yeah I quit my job at the bar because they decided to reopen.
1:34 "this is the Blizness Blaze"
Put down the cup Simon you've had enough to drink
That or he about to have a stroke

That's awesome
Who tf drinks beer out of a cup?
It took me a while to get the joke.
This is my first Business Blaze video. Simon, you're a riot. I don't know too many people that can keep me giggling through a 30-minute video, but from "I am a child" to "you cock womble," your candor hilariously carries the whole thing. Well done!
*Simon:* I have American party cups, but I don't know what to do with them. Any ideas?
*Americans: HAVE A PARTY!*

And its a sitcom where one of them are gay, and it the solo cups.

I will now probably get sued for using brand name - everyone else say 'red cups' - every self respecting grocer has a generic version unidentifiable from the original. See also Kleenex, etc

@@DrNothing23 yes you're definitely right! Could definitely use more during a party. I've also seen a lot of college houses that use red solo cups as just their regular cups throughout the week.
Could you not use something that's reusable?
I work in a liquor store. We regularly give away 20 packs with large bottles of alcohol. I think Simon’s stack of cups would last a weekend at a good college party. 😉

I’d be interested in a blaze about the American health insurance scheme. I’ve heard it’s the major reason health care costs are high.
For one insurance companies have no ethical way to force lower prices, as they only have the option of paying full/majority of the cost or forcing the patient to pay. Theoretically if every insurance company refused to pay for a treatment the price of that treatment would go down. A Government take over would probably make treatments even more expensive but the cost would be everyone's taxes rather then a premium for particular health plan braket
Nah really because it is our philosophy that money is worth more than lives. You arent considered a good company if you arent bringing in the profits so the companies keep increasing the cost to have a bigger bottomline just to compete with each other. Not once is the actual benefit to humanity is considered anymore. And unfortunately we have continued to tolerate it due to not many other options. It's also why most of us cant even afford health insurance let alone care and rely on our employer if we can. Somehow a lot of us are convinced that it would be a bad thing for everyone to have healthcare. It's not good or smart but hey we're American sometimes we are just dumb.
@@manicmentacide because we give to too much freedom, and believe restricting is bad. So we end up with greedy assholes running things, then we want to blame capitalism even though government run shit has no incentive to be efficient. Two sides of the same coin called human nature.

@@radiationpony8449 disagreed partialy.
health is one of those things where state interference directly via price would be required.
(for example forbidding stuff like the ashole that bought a medicine for a rare disease which is the only thing that saves thoses lives and rising the price 300%.)
insurance companies are also a thing that should be required to be opperated non profit oriented (not meaning they should make depth) and at least in switzerland a lot of the rising insurance costs are because the insurance companies spend millions on adds and annoying call centers trying to chase each others customers of...
I truely believe that medicine is a part of the economy where ethicaly a) a maximum price policy is required and b) a state health insurance that opperated non profit orientated (maybe even with some option to what exactly is covered and private versus non private rooms in hospitals etc...), meaning they tried to come even and not make monmey out of it, would be better.
allthough this is once again a problem that only could be solved if the whole world pullef on the same strick ...
@@BlackDragonWitheHawk Switzerland is the worst example of Universal Healthcare as their system is basically the ACA with the compulsory mandate. Which is why its the second most expensive in the world.
The big problem for the Americans is that they are all extremely low information voters with an extremely broken, failed democracy. They get the option of two parties, both of which are heavily corrupt and in the pay of corporations. Indeed, so corrupt they actually legalised the corruption itself.
Having said that, even with the corruption and graft, its impossible for any form of universal healthcare to not be significantly cheaper than their current capitalist dystopia. Even Switzerland's terrible model is still only 65% of so of the US per capita spend and the cost of living in Switzerland is a fair bit higher.

There are a million uses for Solo cups. Intended for parties (your kids birthday I.e.), other common uses include beer pong, arts & crafts, use in artwork (ok that one is less common) and containers for coins, pens, etc. But like those unloved coffee mugs, always store them upside down so the insides are not dusty when you need them 10 months later.
" I make decisions that I regret "
- Simon Whistler
Like finishing watching this video after Simon said there’s a better version coming later
Here's a fact for you. The bottom three "lines" of the original Solo cup are measurement markings.
Bottom ring: 1oz (liquor)
Second ring: 5oz (wine)
Third ring: 12oz (beer)
Of course this all gets pissed out the window after about your sixth cup!😁
Sorry. That's a myth
I'm glad I seen this, I was about to write the same thing
Correction: the liquor line is for your soda, the beer line is for your liquor. Dont be a bitch
It's not true, since their various cup designs have the lines at different spots and they've moved occasionally over the years even on their regular cups.
drinking wine and beer out of a plastic cup is a crime against humanity.
Thats why we drink out of the bottle 😋
Motorcyclists with no helmet--> aka: organ donors...
I'm listening I think you have to die without grave bodily injury to have your organs donated (could be wrong) but oh my god that’s what I’m going to call them now lmao
@@DeathbyPixels There are states with laws that if you are riding without a helmet, you are automatically added to the donor pool.
@@MindALot Yeah can't let all those organs go to waste. Don't need a brain to be an organ donor, just dead.
So it's basically like it's own form of Darwin Award!
At least it means their casket will be light for the Pallbearers.
@@MindALot now that makes sense
Funny they don't have cute names for non-seatbelt wearing drivers. About as many people drown in America as are killed on motorcycles, only a fraction of which might have survived had they worn a helmet. Yeah, if your bare head hits the pavement it will smash. What people don't understand is that the politicians and professional hand wringers behind helmet laws only wanted a precedent for creating seatbelt use laws. Once they got that, insurance companies started saving million$ and helmet laws started dropping like tree leaves.
Here's another part of the picture - lots of guys think that owning a Big Bike, looking cool (no helmet), making loud noises, and trying to look like an Outlaw or an Angel will help them get laid. Take away any part of that image and they might not cough up $15,000 - $30,000 on a crotch enhancer. You see a guy parking his new Harley in front of his house for all the chicks (and thieves) to see and you got a guy that rides to get attention, friends, sex. No helmet. Nobody's business but his. Being scraped off the asphalt is less burdensome on society than dying from lung cancer or even old age. And the vast majority of these bikers have already signed the organ donor line on their driver's license. Lay off.
AYDS Light: all the weight loss, none of the death.
Make a fort out of the cups and jump out of it, yelling "Merica!"
You spelled ‘Murica wrong.
Simon, that's ;like only $2.99 worth of solo cups.
Im ashamed to admit it cost me around 60 dollars to get them to Europe in any reasonable amount of time; worth it.
"I am a child"
Me too Simon, me too.
I love how he said it with such conviction.
“Thank goodness for AIDS.”
I laughed way too hard at this.
As a UA-cam commenter GET DANNY A TROPHY!!!!
i vote for Danny to get the FIRST trophy!!
sam needs one too
No, because then he will start getting ideas above his station, like, being let out of the basement Simon is keeping him in.
We can get one shaped like a radiator to forever remind him of his eternal imprisonment. :]
After the ad said "I'm losing weight deliciously with the aid of AYDS" I'm guessing I'm not the only person who got a fitness ad...well played UA-cam.
"Blizness Blaze" ? (1:34) "MySplace" ? (20:50) "Processing Prants" ? (26:06)
What's in that clup, Simon?
Did you actually edit your plost?
Lean.
In the 70’s GM couldn’t figure out why the Chevy Nova was not selling in Spanish speaking countries. They had no clue the it meant “Doesn’t go”.

No Simon, pretty much anyone whos ever worked in food service has probably done this at some point".
Hey Simon, you should make a new chanel called Blizness Blaze. Just like this but done while drunk. At least make an episode like that.
Mark Nicholas, you are a genius
Have you checked out Factfiend? Not Simon, but it’s a similar kind of deal.
He just did.

I heard that to :)

I think Simon is putting those Polo cups to their proper use :)
@Ultima MIc yes because Danny has to look at something in the basement :-)
Buckled at this petition for them to change the change to blizness blaze
Also "Mysplace". Simon go get a stroke test from your doctor. Do you smell toast?
1:34: Blizness Blaze. We’ve moved on from Cocaine to Ice hey, Simon 😉
Also, share a Solo Cup with Danny. It might keep him entertained in the basement.
Me watching Simon's other channels for months: he's really reserved.
Me stumbling onto this channel: I'm loving this less reserved less Simon 😂🍺🍹
He must be fun to go out with or at a party lol
I will go a few weeks with out watching them, then bing watch them when I’m having a really shitty day. It helps a lot!
Brian Bishop he’s toooo funny!!!! I just love his James Bond accent!!
Loose Simon👍
Thank goodness you didn’t accept that particular sponsorship.
I went to college with one of the 12 kids in the family that owned the Solo Cup corporation and learned some interesting facts.
1) The family members in management were obsessed with product quality. When I casually mentioned that recently I had accidentally broken a Solo cup they wanted to know where and when it happened so that they could track the production down to the specific plant that manufactured it and make sure there were no defects in the product.
2) Those sections on the side of the cup have an actual purpose. If it’s full to the very top the cup holds 16 ounces. The size one down marks the 12oz point, then 8 oz and the bottom line marks 4oz. There were probably design strength reasons to mold the cup that way, but I was also meant to help beer and hard liquor drinkers keep an approximate measure of how many ounces of beer, wine or spirits they were consuming.
Now, the first segment is 4 oz, but it’s fairly easy to divide that level by four then add ice and mixer based on an estimated shot..
True Solo Cups have the trademark Solo™️ imprinted on the bottom of the cup in large letters.
As for use, you could use them for the biggest beer pong game in history. Or other drinking games like Bizz-Buzz, Boat Races and Hi Bob!
The internet has the rules to be found easily I’m sure. Bob Newhart, who was a Senior at my Alma mater St. Ignatius College Prep. In Chicago when my dad was a Freshman was the unwitting inspiration for Hi Bob! An intoxicating game where on Videos of episodes of The Bob Newhart Show everyone takes a drink every time a character says Hi Bob! Watch an episode and count and you’ll see how many times it happens. There’s even an SNL skit about two characters including Chris Farley (who my wife told in high school that if he didn’t clean up his act he’d be stuck living in a van down by the river...) Who Newhart caught playing Hi Bob live.
Funny. I think Newhart’s dry clean humor is an excellent example of the traditional Jesuit School teaching style I experienced in high school and college (Spring Hill College). Newhart went to Loyola University in Chicago and almost certainly had my great Uncle Fr. Bernard Foote, SJ for Latin and English.
Thank you, this was actually quite interesting!

Re: solo cups, you could always start a gofundme for a shoestring telecommunications startup, with early investors getting a linked transceiver unit all their own.
I remember Ayds. I treated it like candy & scarfed them by the handfuls. Didn't do my weight any good at all.
This. This comment is gold.
But they were really delicious,chewy chocolates and I didn’t GAIN any weight!
'Although some of you are statistically dumb." I died😂
you're holding the stack of red solo cups at your crotch, and I look down to see 69 likes. That made my day.
