BSOD
Blue Soda Of Death
can't believe they made the BSODA from Baldi's Basics into a real thing
It’s beer
Blue Beer of Windows
BBW
They're talking about a crash
Blue Beer Crash
I... Kinda want one of those. Not to drink it, but to put it on my shelf and be like, "yeah, that's my Windows soda. I hear if you drink it you'll turn blue and die."
Tbh it might actually do that considering it's probably almost 30yrs old.
I can't decide who's more likely to buy this (if it were new): current me out of nostalgia for a pretty good OS, or 1995 me went to Incredible Universe on release day to buy Windows 95.
That would be your Windows beer
For the teetotalers: get Linux instead, for root beer.
I bet it’s just still water.
Wonder if they used to sell these at Michaelsoft Binbows
The Japanese text on the bottom of the left image says: Sapporo (Draft) Black Label beer. I can't tell what the four characters under 生 are though. (Too blurry for me to figure out.)
Edit: those characters might be 非熱処理 -- meaning unpasteurized.
Yes but how does it taste
If ENTER goes back to Windows, and CTRL+ALT+DEL restarts…
Where does the any key continue to?
It was there the whole time?!
It’s a pretty popular beer in Japan. Many people I know love it (not a beer drinker myself). I’d imagine you can probably get it wherever you live, too.
Tastes like hot computer fan air
Damn Bill Gates tryin’ to get them 486 chips in me!
