I do not get people who like wine THIS much. Like, are you even going to drink all of it before you die? When I buy alcohol I intend to drink it sooner or later, by myself or with friends, and then buy more alcohol.
Will you even TASTE all of that before you die, and if it's just to taste them all, why have bottles so big? They should just make smaller wines for snob collectors
I'm gonna be real, I know couples in their 60s and 70s who could easily drink all that before they die. I doubt the Obama's will, it's just a status symbol for them, but for the retired professors I know that wall would be 3 or 4 dinner parties.
I'm into wine, and while I keep some bottles that need to age for longer before they're good, some I got as a gift and I'm waiting for a special occasion and the right people to open them and drink them with, and some I intend to gift later, I don't understand people who have hundreds and hundreds of bottles either.
At some point it becomes about performing class and showing off. Unless you're a full time somm at a restaurant I'm sure you're not going to remember every label and vintage in that cellar, and know what they're good for, or taste like.
Shit is like a funkopop wall but for the obscenely wealthy
that's way too much alcohol dude
He only has a net worth of 70 million, practically a man of the people
mfw ocrumbo is closer to me than he is to a billionaire
Isn’t it super rad how people are just fine and dandy with billionaires so 70 million is just peanuts now
The lighting on that photo is not kind to Michelle. She's a wife to neoliberal vampire so she's evil too, but you didn't have to do her like that BO.
if only there were a drone above
Also the fact they're both seated with no food, means there just microwaving something like us normals! definitely no private chefs here no sirree
nightmare fuel
She went from a hip mom, trying to keep kids healthy, to some sort of Louisiana bog witch, hexxing those same children.
Nobody in this thread better eat at a restaurant that isn't filled with cockroaches and druggies injecting while starving naked children beg for scraps because if someone takes a photo of you at a nice restaurant for an anniversary dinner you'll be accused of being part of the bourgeoise.
this is a bit right
as long as we're providing dining suggestions, I suggest you eat my ass, liberal
Everyone is getting their jabs in but I just wanted to thank you for coming to hexbear and giving us someone to laugh at
You want more to laugh at you can go through their comment history:
Nobody in this thread better be a ex US president or else I'mma be real mad

The imagination of reactionaries is a strange place.
I've been noticing an inordinate amount of reactionaries around here recently. Was their some sort of influx to lemmy recently?
Because if there's any group of people who are definitely not part of the bourgeois class, it's former US presidents.
Genuine question: do you believe the Obamas are not part of the ruling class?
Does anyone else hear an odd droning sound?
I have to know what the fuck you were thinking posting this.
Do you fantasize about "druggies" and "starving naked children" often
hope he sees this
our poor obamas thank you for defending them 
they're really doing it tough so lets all pitch in
Reservations for the wine cellar at this resturaunt are $350 per person. When's the last time you spent $700+ on a single meal?
E) Reservation site says wine cellar reservations are for parties of 6-10 people, so really it's more like that is a $2,100+ meal
And I thought I was being bougie spending $60 total on a nice Italian dinner for 2 
uh let me defend obama
He/theys are in fact my core demographic
