Social hour
I can wait here, if you want to pour 2 ounces of wine (or anything, really) into a large-ish wine glass.
When you come back, we can laugh at the false promises in this ad.
But if you don’t want to conduct that experiment, we can go ahead and discuss why that man in the ad is holding two glasses of wine and why his torso seems to be extraordinarily long.
