An unspeakable horror has come down upon the world. An Alien race hell-bent on destroying margaritas, and possibly alcohol as we know it, prepares to land the final strike against humanity. As we ready ourselves for battle, and one final attempt to fight back this new-found evil, the president of the sovereign nation of Margaritaville, Jimmy Buffett, steps on a make-shift podium and grabs a microphone in an attempt to rally the crowd…
“Good Morning… In less than an hour… Drinkers from PGP will join others from around the world. And you will be lunch-ing one of the most important battles of sobriety in the entire history of #MargLife…”
President Buffett scans the crowd of what’s left of humanity in a dramatic pause and sips a margaita.
“Marg Life, that word should have new meaning for all of us today… We can’t be consumed by our petty differences anymore. On the rocks or Frozen, we will be united in our common interest. Perhaps that it’s fate that it’s National Margarita Day and you will once again be drinking for your freedom.
Not from a tyranny or oppression of a no-alcohol policy at work, or persecution of a write-up from HR.
But to get annihilated, or at least getting a little fucked up on your lunch break.
We’re fighting for our right to live… the #MargLife.”
“To wear Hawaiian shirts on Fridays, and should we win the day…”
President Buffett sips the margarita again..
“National Margarita Day will no longer be known as just a Marg Life holiday, but as the day the world declared we will not go quietly into the afternoon! We will not leave lunch without a margarita flight!
We’re going to live on. We’re going to imbibe.
Today we celebrate our NATIONAL MARGARITA DAY!”
President Buffett chugs two margs on the rocks in a dramatic fashion rallying the troops.
As the battle for National Margarita Day rages on, the fate of margaritas finds itself resting on one soul person. A guy from chili’s to make the ultimate sacrifice for the sake of humanity… his sacrifice will forever be remembered in the 2/22/17 “What’s For Lunch” PGP Reddit thread…..

I’m positive I would get fired if I had a lunch margarita and anyone found out but I’m still considering it.
I won’t tell…
Phone interview this morning went well anyway. #marglife
working at a refinery, they are breathilizing people coming back from lunch. They did the same thing on st patricks day last year. Bastards
Sucks, man, but I personally wouldn’t want to get smelted if my coworker is a fuckup. In my industry on the otherhand, people are just as likely to fuck up stuff sober as not.
Worth it
I would follow you onto the beaches of Normandy after a speech like that
Viva la margarita
Well, what better place to have a margarita than a beach?
Id love to see your marg recipe. I usually stick to the basics, Tequila, Orange Liqueur, and Lime Juice (3,2,1 ratio, thanks Producer Micah), but if im missing out on something better id love to know. Either way, happy Marg Day.
Micah is a good man, but I tend to bust out the blenders and fruit when I can.
But do you use a blender or a Margaritaville machine?
I’m a 2-1-1 kinda guy, but live your truth.
Gotta add some agave to it so it’s not too sour
Triple sec is alcohol, orange flavor, and sugar. There’s already enough sugar. Also, hot take, but agave nectar is not distinguishable from simple syrup, which you can easily make a ton of at home for next to nothing.
This is everything I could have ever asked for from you Shibbs
I’d run through a wall after reading this.
#RIP Chilis Guy, I will be missed
Ehhh, idk about all that.
I got blasted on margs last night not even knowing today was #nationalmargaritaday… looks like round 2 tonight
Didn’t know today was National Margarita Day. Thank you shibby, I know what I’m drinking tonight
Well now I just really want a margarita but I’m about to head to the bar for Devils vs Rangers and I’m gonna look pretty odd drinking a margarita while watching hockey. Oh well.
Well now I’ll probably have one tonight. Tequila, lime juice, frozen fruit, and agave syrup. No Orange Liqueur unless I buy some after the gym.
