Folks, you know things are getting bad when your (mc)boingy host stoops to buying a box of wine.

And likes it.*

I sense an alcoholic coming on.

    Tom Waits: There aint nothin wrong with a lady drinking alone in a room.

    I’ve always been romantic about liquor but it seems a little wine, a little anasthesia, it’s needed sometimes.

    And someone to say go on, you’ll be all right.

    Boxed wine? McBoing, you know how I feel about this. I think we need an intervention, stat. Your bottle of Nero d’Avola will be in the mail soon.

    McBoing: At Target, they have some house brand which I “really like”*. It’s especially atrocious to be able to get Australian shiraz or cab for that price, too.

    * - Well, obviously, this isn’t “really like” in the sense of “find to be very good wine”. More like “find totally appropriate to drink in my shame-hole and never offer to visitors or loved ones”.

    And no, it doesn’t.
