• I could so see the old Nostril doing this... He wouldn't let a little thing like an avalanche stop him... He'd piss that snow away, dagnammit!
• Wait...why didn't he just POUR the beer on the snow, and then... Oh, okay. Never mind. Stupid question.
• this is the most beautiful passage:

  He had 60 half-litre bottles of beer in his car as he was going on holiday, and after cracking one open to think about the problem he realised he could urinate on the snow to melt it, local media reported.

  30 liters of beer for a holiday... no wonder the fellow wasn't too scared to think!
• *slaps TP on the back of the head* I'm confiscating your beer, after that.
• What is it with Ananova... are they aspiring to be the European Daily Onion? (Still remembering that snausage story)
• And the Europeans say OUR beer tastes like piss.
• Your beer *does* taste like piss. /bearer of bad news
• Why is American beer like making love in a canoe? /oblig old joke
• "It was hard and now my kidneys and liver hurt." After 30 liters of beer I would imagine they would.
• Ok, danger, I'll bite: What's the punch line?
• kTK - "Because it's fucking close to water" as i heard it told.
• I don't suppose the beer had anything to do with WHY he managed to land under the avalanche, would it?
• And for the record, that's the mass market american beer. Or does all german beer taste like Heineken? You try some stuff from the Victory Brewing Company in Pennsylvania, then you tell me American beer isn't flavorful. I especially recommend Storm King, Hop Wallop, Old Horizontal, and Hop Devil. And aside from having your beer drinking license revoked, you don't just pour it onto the snow because you need to warm it first. Fortunately, you exist as a Beer Warming Mechanism (First Class), since the beer itself provides the power for the warming. If he had had 30 liters of water, he might be dead now, because the water wouldn't have any power to keep the furnaces going.
