Quote #11654
The basic beer ad: big-breasted babes in bikinis. Beer won't get you babes. But if you drink enough, you think they're babes, and if you drink more, you can grow your own breasts.

Interpretation
The quip satirizes a familiar advertising trope: selling beer by pairing it with sexualized images of women. The speaker punctures the implied promise (“beer gets you babes”) by reframing alcohol’s “benefit” as mere perception—drink enough and your standards or judgment shift. The final punchline turns the fantasy back on the consumer’s body, joking about alcohol-related weight gain and feminizing side effects (e.g., “growing your own breasts”) as the real, ironic outcome. Overall, it’s a critique of manipulative marketing and of how intoxication can distort desire, self-image, and agency.
