Agreed.

I’m sure the auto mechanic is in awe of your intelligence when you need help fixing the car.

Ted Cruz is an alien, so I think we have our answer.

I’ll talk geeky to you all night.

I’m not missing that part. I’ve been assuming from the get-go that the can is full submerged in water, which is being chilled by ice, just as the video illustrated.

Gotcha!

Where I went to college, KA was known (depending on your own beliefs) as either the “Southern Frat” or the “Racist Frat.”

Ah. Of course. I was so busy focusing on how salt affects ice that I totally ignored how it affects liquid water. Assuming the ice were cold enough, the water could get below 0 C, thus cooling the can faster.

“With their winning streak of three World Cup in the last several years.”

“I want to stress one thing: these guys aren’t motorcyclists, they’re assholes on motorcycles.”

Why would adding salt to the ice bath accelerate cooling of the beer?

I say, go for it. And if it doesn’t work, you can always try with a chair.

Kenny Lofton may be able to steal bases and dunk basketballs, but having played in a foursome behind him I can assure you he’s a shitty, slow golfer who spent most of the round on his phone.
