It’s true it’s not the thing holding my beer. It’s not the humans are gonna want that beer back as soon as possible. They will do anything and you know it’s even worse if a human says hold my second beer.

The peace treaty was singed amid something Brooks called the "Electric Slide."

The power wasn’t in the phrase “hold my beer”, the power originated from the human wanting to get back to his beer as quickly as possible.
