i recall a three panel cartoon/postcard which depicted a humorless wine geek at a winery tasting bar.
Panel one: Geek: "this wine tastes like sh*t"
Panel two: Owner: "It was rated 98 by RP"
Panel three: Geek "I'll take two cases"

Well done. How about a sequel on the shit said by the people pouring the tastes?
It's almost never bad to feed someone.
