    First, they turned trucker hats into high-fashion items. Then, they made PBR a trendy beer.

    Now they're trying to make Boone's Farm Wine into the next "It's cool because it's ironic" trend...

    I think Boone's Farm Wine should be the beverage of choice at for all wedding events... Bachelor parties, rehearsel dinners, receptions and if the wedding is a Catholic ceremony, someone, say a groomsman, should swap out the communion wine with Boone's.
    It would be a Festivus miracle, regular wine turned into the Blood of Christ into Boone's. A Festivus miracle!!!

    How can you ruin Boone's Farm Wine any more? And I don't think Kevin Federline wearing a Boone's Farm shirt is necessarily "ironic."

    I thought "ironically cool" wasn't cool any more. Wal Mart is full of ironic clothing for young men. How hip can it be if it's in Wal Mart? The 90s are over, psuedo-hipster asswipes.

    Boone's Farm can't be ironically cool, because it was never uncool.

    As my high school buyer said, exiting the liquor store, "It tastes like piss, but it'll get you laid."

    Certainly nothing of substance musically. I'd relate the Zeros (how apt) to the early 60's, pre-Beatles, post Holly, Elvis in the military and the airwaves were essentially disposable one hit semi-wonders.

    Popular culture has shot its wad. We're just recycling now.

    I love Boone's Farm.

    There, I said it.

    It's the best "It tastes too sweet to really be alcohol, so I can chug the whole bottle and then feel slightly tipsy" drunk out there.

    I'm still pissed I can't find the Sun Peak Peach here. I don't like any other flavor. And yes, I've stocked up on trips home before.

    Fuck all y'all.

    Dovetails nicely with Boone's Farm. They're onto something. And it definitely does not taste like bees.

    My parents will only drink one wine: Blue Nun. Kitsch classic, yet they don't see the irony.
