Reminds me of when my brother and I were 18-20 and asked our upstairs neighbors, Wanda and Lou from Austin, to help with buying us a case of beer for New Years Eve. They asked what kind we wanted and we said Budweiser. Wanda said “oh, splurgin!”. I guess standard was Natural Light or Busch or something and she saw Budweiser as somewhat elite.
“This is the famous Budweiser beer. We know of no brand produced by any other brewer which costs so much to brew and age. Our exclusive Beechwood Aging produces a taste, a smoothness and drinkability you will find in no other beer at any price.”
They’re the first hit for “plastic cup”. They’re cheaper than the clear version. You can get store brand, or Solo brand if you want to go posh.
You have a VERY different definition of “posh” than any I’m used to…
And now I’m imagining Victoria Beckham drinking $10000/bottle champagne out of name brand disposable cups 😁

Did you consider she might have been being sarcastic?
No, because the way she said it made it clear that was not the case. Also, they did typically drink cheaper beer like Schlitz.
It’s not like you suggested something really classy, like Coors Banquet.
Ever read the text on the Budweiser label?

I drank cliquot veuve (? I think that’s how you spell it) out of a red solo cup one new years.
Veuve Clicquot. Nearly all the right letters, just the wrong order.
… that’s…the same definition. What do you think that’s referring to?
