Description
Meet the mascot. He's been expecting you.
Sunglasses on. Rocks glass in hand. Absolutely zero regrets about any of it. This raccoon didn't stumble into the bad example business — he built it, refined it, and has been running it with remarkable consistency ever since. He's not sorry. You're not either. That's why you two get along so well.
Somebody has to set the bad example. He volunteered. So did you.
Perfect For
The bourbon lover who wears the title with pride and a perfectly poured rocks glass.
You're not a bad influence — you're an experience. You're the reason the night gets interesting, the reason the group chat is never boring, and the reason there are stories people still tell three years later. You didn't ask to be the bad example. You were just born with the gift.
For whiskey nights, backyard hangs, bar crawls, birthday parties, camping trips, and anyone who has ever been called a bad influence and immediately took it as a compliment.
Someone has to do it. You and the raccoon have it handled.
