There you go. The etymology of “Zima,” the alcoholic drink of douchebags.

To be  honest, I admit that I tried Zima exactly twice in the early 90s, before I poured out the rest of the bottle and grabbed a can of Bud, just to stave off any latent woosification that could have crippled my rep.

If you’ve never experienced that awful alcopop, there’s one bottle in the back of the rec room refrigerator that was left behind after one of Mongoose’s liquor cabinet raids last year. We’re going to turn off the power for 5 minutes tonight, and anybody that wants to make off with it is encouraged to do so (DADT) on
