It would be pretty damn hard to take yourself out with either of those two, so much so you wouldn't be capable of hardly anything on that list.

Welding is too specialized a skill, too many people think they can weld and are completely shit at it. Welding is for qualified individuals unless you want crap. Inspected too much of that shit for people to think anyone can do it.

You really know it's not for everyone when even computers can't do it right. Seen computer laser welds for major corporations that were just awful.

So, how do you really feel about welding?

I can't weld for shit, but I can make beer.

It's like having tits, I can get other people to weld for me.

Beer is beer. Tits are tits. ONLY tits are tits. There is no 'like.' Making beer doesn't make people buy you cars and jewellery.

Not so.

I've been offered plenty of goods and services in exchange for beer.

When the Zombie apocalypse comes, I won't even need a gun. I'll be well protected as the maker of the beer.

Then let me put it this way: People don't buy you cars and jewellery in the hope that you MIGHT give them beer.

If you can crack that last bit, then you can keep all the beer to yourself

That's gonna be a tough one.

Guys will wait on the promise on tits, far longer than they will on the promise of beer.

It's in our jeans.
