Evolving beer bottle? A bit like Ow My Eye

I opened the fridge and removed one bottle and the rest just slid along like this.

Okay, perhaps it is just me that sees it then.

No, the men weren't in the fridge at the same time, they are there to show the image that the beer bottle reminded me of.

I don’t recognise the logo, but the oval bottles look very familiar, is it St. (Saint) something or other? I can sort of visualise the name, I just can’t quite remember it.

Why did you buy seven bottles of beer?

St. Peter's brewery in Suffolk. Lovely beer, but there is clearly not enough of it present.

That's me on the left going up the stairs after 7 bottles.

You're a wrong 'un for putting more than 5 bottles on that shelf in the first place

Nice beer

My friend likes to use those bottles for vases in her house

I've  considered this. How do you remove the neck cleanly without a sharp edge?

Wow that's a bit harsh - I'm no fan of beer bottle vases either but I'd just have a quiet word with her rather than anything so drastic...

Drink all those right to left and the graphic below demonstrates what happens to you?

I am sorry you felt offended, I thought you had the intelligence to understand that I had removed 1 bottle earlier with no effect but later I removed 1 bottle and the rest all slid into the position you see. 😉

Is it only me who has wondered about the hubris in the evolution picture?

They (St Peter's) used to do a lovely Porter, haven't seen it for ages though. Hope it's a dedicated beer fridge and you're not drinking ale at 4°C.

I'm not offended, I'm just concerned for you. You misrepresent your alcohol consumption, then, when questioned about it, go silent for a day, then come back with a story that is hard to believe. We're all friends here, if you have a problem, you can tell us about it, nobody is going to judge you.

I appreciate your concern but rest assured, I am safe. I haven't drunk alcohol for 18 months or so and those bottles are all alcohol free : https://stpetersbrewery.myshopify.com/collections/alcohol-free

Scary to think I am still me, doing all the same stuff I did before but just stone cold sober.

Alcohol free you say? 🤔 Well, it would be rude not to try! Thanks for the inspiration WCA

I didn't say it was nice and certainly didn't recommend it. It is one of those a/f beers that tastes a bit like wet bread. Drinkable but not wonderful. Cheap in Morrisons where it is 3 for 4 at £1.20 a bottle though.
