Iowa Brewing Company’s Festivus Frustration: “Top 10 Things That Grinded Our Gears in 2023”
Hello, fellow Festivus celebrators and beer enthusiasts! As we gear up for our Annual Festivus Celebration on December 23, it’s time for the traditional "Airing of Grievances." This year, Iowa Brewing Company has compiled the Top 10 Grievances of 2023, because let's face it, sometimes you just need to vent over a good beer!
The Great Avocado Crisis - 2023 saw the inexplicable shortage of avocados, leading to brunches without guacamole and lonely tortilla chips. How did we survive this travesty?
The Sock Disappearance Phenomenon - Socks continue to vanish in the laundry. We demand answers (and sock refunds)!
Wi-Fi Woes - When our Wi-Fi was slower than a snail, we contemplated going back to carrier pigeons for communication.
The Perpetual Quest for Parking - Spending more time looking for parking spots than actually being at events. Can we get valet parking for life?
“Reply All” Email Blunders - That one time Bob from accounting hit 'reply all' to the entire company... We love you, Bob, but let's not do that again.
Weather Mood Swings - Remember when we experienced all four seasons in one week? Mother Nature, please decide!
Binge-Watching Burnout - When your favorite streaming service asks, “Are you still watching?” Yes, we are, and we don't need the judgment!
The Mysterious Disappearance of Leftovers - Leftovers vanishing from the office fridge. The mystery continues... (Stephanie, we know you took my salmon!)
Endless Construction - The road construction that seemed to have no end. We’ve started naming the cones and barriers. (cc: City of Cedar Rapids)
Overzealous Alarm Clocks - Waking up before the alarm and realizing you only had five more minutes of sleep. Every. Single. Time.
As we laugh (and maybe cry a little) over these common grievances, let's raise a glass of our finest Iowa brews and toast to the joys and challenges of the past year. Join us at the Iowa Brewing Company on December 23 for our Festivus Celebration, where good beer and good company make everything better. Oh, and bring your grievances…we want them all.
Remember, Festivus is for the rest of us!
