    i need your help, folks.

    still dealing with kidney stones, and my doctor told me when i'm feeling pain, drinking a beer can be helpful.

    i bought a six-pack of beer yesterday. it's in bottles and was in the refrigerated section. my question is do i have to keep it refrigerated until i drink it? does it "go bad" if i don't? how long can i keep it (shelf life) and it'll still be considered good? 

    and no, it isn't pumpkin beer...

    (1) Go get another 6 pack.

    (2) Drink both 6 packs

    (3) Text me

    "Ireton, who grew up in Japan, is most well-known for his three years spent as Kenta Maeda's interpreter with the Dodgers from 2016 to 2018. During that time, he became something of a local celebrity among the team and its fans for his energy and sense of humor, which was well-documented on Maeda's Instagram page."

    None of that changes the fact that he sucks at interpreting.

    Ohtani would be talking for about 2 straight minutes and then the translator would have some simple 10 second translation of what Ohtani said before coming to an abrupt stop. Even Ohtani was looking at him confused at times

    A good interpreter can remember a good 30 seconds or so of speaking and then translate it word for word.  Some take notes and can do it for longer than 30 seconds.  This guy was summarizing.  That's what a layperson who speaks both languages typically does.  In this situation he needed an actual certified interpreter.  Not the dude with a Japanese mom who gets sushi twice a week.
