Neologisms: the way to a girl's heart
I was already developing a bad case of hot blog love for The Royal We over at That's Just The Booze Talking, and then he unveiled the term douche hatcheries to denote the in-town bars where fledgling hipsters dry their new wings in the feeble light of the ironic disco ball, enboldened by steady lashings of Red Bull with vodka.

Jussoyaknow, Red Bull with vodka is known as a "Mad Cow" over here. It must have some douche-worthy hipster-dufus name there, right?
I've heard it called a Raging Bull, as well. It may soon be known as an Oh My God, Call an Ambulance!
Perhaps it's true: Red Bull really does give you wings.
