I really need a flask.  I've always felt that they are sexy accessories.

Here I've seen girls wlaking on the street with a bottle of wine in one hand and a big wine glass in the other. Looks so classy and trashy at the same time :drool

It's good to know that you've chosen to embrace your alcoholism.

I just wanted my own unmarked 1 Litre (yes 1 litre not imperial measurements you backwards bastards) steins that I carry to parties. But then I'd look like an idiot, opening three bottles to pour in it every time I felt like a drink.

flasks by design are meant to be discreet and and used in situations where alcohol wouldnt be socially or legally acceptable

so no

I love mine (monogrammed :rock) but it's just not big enough. My blood probably has more liquor in it than the flask does when it's full.

Who cares if they're acceptable?  They're NECESSARY.  I, of course, own two metal flasks and have a couple cheap-o plastic flasks that we used in the past to smuggle bourbon into Braves games.  Fuck $7 for a 16 oz. beer when I can get a coke for $4 or $5, drink some of it down and then pour in mah liquor.  Now that's how you attend a sporting event, chaps.

When I was sixteen, I bought a "Soviet Army" flask at a gun show. Not sure if it was authentic or not (had CCCP on the front and a little sickle & hammer on the cap), but it was awesome. It was lost or stolen ages ago.

I have tons of liquor gift set flasks around but we really only use all plastic ones now, if at all.

From what I've read of DCharlie's alcohol related posts, I wouldn't be surprised if he retrofitted some British pea coat that has the inner lining replaced with a rubber bladder. Basically, a giant coat flask. Getting to the alcohol requires the wearer to pop his/her collar where a hidden translucent spout is placed into the mouth. Good times ensue.
