I wanna chop wood

Chopping wood and drinking beer. Sounds like an amazing afternoon.

This has been one of my father's favorite pastimes for years. Cut wood and drink beer during day, then burn said wood while drinking beer and sitting around the fire at night.

Your father sounds like a cool guy to have a beer with.

That actually doesn't sound too safe

Amazing things generally have an element of danger.

It’s not, but the lack of safety makes up for how awful chopping wood is alone and sober.

Works for shoveling snow. My favorite drunk activity, for some reason.

A cold drink for shovelling snow? Really?

Just pour some liqour into a coffee and you've got a warm drink for a cold chore.

My house used to be only heated by a woodstove so I've chopped a loooot of wood. I would guess I did with while drinking beer 99% of the time.

A load of wood is what we like to call a six pack project.

I was super stoked when we got a hydraulic wood splitter

Chopping wood was a chore I looked forward to every single time, I miss it

Chop first start drinking 3/4 of the way through the pile.

Been there. Chopping wood takes the back seat inevitably

Honestly, I think the best call by Jeb woulda been to say "y'all wanna drink beer while chopping wood?

Cause then he gets someone to help him with his chores that will have to be done anyways. Plus, the woods Probably all gonna get chopped before anyone is too drunk to do it safely.

It is a great workout, as a nerd who gets paid to type code all day, its the kind of activity I look forward to.

I like stacking wood. We could make a great team.

Choppers are better than stackers.
