    Thank you. Guess I've not seen these, but I don't get out much. I like that!

    Like Joe said. The little plastic bottles of booze like you get on an airplane. Nippers, or nips for short.
    Gotta admit I never gave it much thought. The only valid reason is your tossing the evidence after each swig. Makes me look differently now at the well dressed middle aged women I’ve seen buying them in bulk :) Wow, I get it now.

    I almost have to laugh about finding nipper bottles in my front yard. Every week it seems the same person is drinking the same thing and pitching it out the window in the same exact spot. It's funny to me because I used to be that guy. Karma I suppose, now I get to clean them up indefinitely. The person doing it probably thinks he's getting away with something. REALLY. Like your wife isn't going to notice you coming in the house with that warm glow on your face and reeking of booze? Besides, it's a lot cheaper to buy alcohol by the handle! I imagine it's the same dummies that buy $35 worth of lotto tickets a day that buy their booze $1.78 at a time. And then chase them down with a couple Camel Wides in rapid succession. :smoke:
