Real letters from real geeks

Dear purveyors of Budweiser (Light),

Hey boys.  Long time drinker, first time writer.  Just wanted to say: saw your television commercial about that dude who drinks your beer and then is like, transported back in time to Salem, Massachussets where everyone's all "you're a witch", and he's like, "no, dude" and then his cell phone rings and again everyone's all "you witch!" and he's like "no, man, it's a text message".

Well, I gotta say, I got ya. Because for starters they totally didn't have cell phone towers that would be able to relay the message to like 200 years ago. So he totally could not get that text message.

But second, and more important, even if he could get that message, do you know what the consequences of inter-time communication would be? Don't even joke about that shit, man. It would be fuckin' insane.

Just imagine that that guy wasn't tied to a stake and about to be burned, and that he was able to reply to the text message.  Dude!  His friend in the 21st century could totally text him lottery numbers and shit!  And if his friend was writing a history exam, the dude could just text his friend the answers; from actual history!

That put my brain in a headspin.  I know you guys are about beer first, and that time-travel stuff isn't your forté.  No problem, I'm looking out for ya.  But seriously, you don't want to joke about this stuff.  The consequences are serious.  Imagine if the dude killed the guy who invented Budweiser beer.  Then there would be no commercial.  Wait, but then the guy couldn't kill the inventor of the beer.

Whoa.

Wicked beer guys,


Harvey
