    Saw this over on Grumpy Gamer, Ron Gilbert's blog. Basically a bunch of students sent in an email about out of control drinking to the Argentinan news - specifically claiming the youngsters were drinking a noxious cocktail called Grog XD.

    Pay attention to the subtitles in red.

    Hilarity, COMMENCE!

    HAHAHAHA! That's absolutely legendary. Seeing that on TV if you were the one to set it up on Facebook would be the moment of a lifetime.

    That was classic :D
    Surely if all those ingredients were googled it would have come up with Monkey Island?
    Glad they didn't though :)
