When I have a bad day I spend 5-10 dollars on some Mickey's Fine Malt Liquor.
Works every time, and I don't have guilt about spending a bunch of money. Sure, there is some guilt about a grown ass man drinking 40's of malt liquor but that's gone half way through the first one.
I LOVE mickeys! They stopped selling them at the liquor store nearby and I was so sad. I like their bottle cap puzzles.
