bartlebeer

Low-Carb Energy Beer!

Bartlebeer was invented by Rick Bartleman. It is the greatest beer in the world. It's not currently available to the public, but will be soon.
Listen to all the happy people cheer, they are excited now that they have BartleBeer! When you want to start late, and end early. Don't want your gut to become all burly. Don't mix something in your beer, that will spoil it. You will just end up all night at the toilet! Keep your body happy, and let the world hear. WE ALL LOVE, BARTLEBEER!

Bartley

A level of status. Typically used in reference to being physically, mentally, performance-wise, or even theoretically incapable. All versions have to do with describing the level of being an idiot and fuck up.
1. Physical. (Ow! I just had a Bartley moment, I fucked up my thumb by smashing it with a hammer.)

2. Mentally. (That man is having a Bartley kind of day. He just keeps messing up the simplest of things and can’t get anything right.)

3. Performance-wise. (Hey do you see how slow that guy is working? I could work circles around him!)
