Should I Buy My Son A Beer?
First, you should go on a diet and stop eating those doughnuts Mr. Porky. Next stop telling lame stories about pigs that wouldn’t even entertain a 5 year old. And stop recording yourself telling these strange anecdotes and broadcasting it on YouTube to a potential worldwide audience numbering millions… they’ll all think you’re weird. Also, stop laughing at your own (so called) jokes, they ain’t funny, and saying “it was funny” doesn’t make them any more so.
On to the point of the video, and the question at hand. Should you buy your son a beer? Yes, of course you should, don’t be such a miserable git and let him experience the joy of getting drunk. You’ve even said yourself that he’ll be getting it himself and drinking anyway so duh, where’s the problem!?! 21 is too old anyway, over in Europe it’s 16 or 18 and I don’t really see the problem. It’s not like the place is full of drunks, and liquored up soccer hooligans or anything.
And then we have some cheesy photo slideshow of the son, with some godawful music playing over it… and the absolutely unnessacary posed studio shot at the end, just to prove how crap this video is.
If this guy can call himself a “Director”, I can call myself a “Good blogger”, and we all know that’s not true.

I think you’re being a little harsh on this guy, but yeah wtf is this doing on YouTube? WTF is with that slideshow!? That’s almost creepy. I wonder what his kid thinks about it. And yes, for god sakes buy him a beer. The problem with America is that we act like drinking is this big taboo so kids go crazy when they get their hands on it. If you grow up around it thinking its not that big of a deal, maybe we wouldn’t have so much of a problem with binge drinking.

Harsh for comedic value Paul, that’s all ;)
The sn has probably been ridiculed in college because of the slideshow!
You’re 100% right about the taboo aspect influencing a binge culture, mainland European countries like France and Germany have a much better attitude towards alcohol than either Britain or the US.
