What it is:
A set of coasters with handy definitions of various stages of drunkeness.
Why we love it:
So you've settled in for a... wine tasting, or perhaps a delicate cocktail with your hors d'oeuvres (something classy, and sophisticated), and you're enjoying yourself with your witty and charming friends who seem to be getting wittier and more charming by the minute. You're feeling full of a love of mankind, wearing a giant grin on your face and clapping your witty and charming friends on the back at their witty and charming bon mots. You pick up your glass, feeling thoughtful and wise, and there on your coaster is an explanation. Oh yes... tipsy, I'm tipsy. These little reminders can be invaluable at an... elegant cocktail party, or any other truly cultured event your friend might hold which could potentially involve a bit of temperate imbibing. And should things go past temperate, well, there's a coaster for "plastered" too. The set is six coasters in all, helpfully defining the various conditions that exist slightly to the left of sober. Very helpful for identifying your current state, and keeping drink rings off the table.
