    Why is this so novel? Don’t most neighborhood liquor stores deliver? The new TV in an hour seems more of a new thing.

      You’re funny! I remember seeing liquor delivery in Dawn: Portrait of a Teenage Alcoholic, and thought it was the craziest thing ever. Linda Blair had a bunch of booze delivered to the house and told the delivery guy her mom was in the shower.

      ’Round here, all the liquor stores are owned by the county.

    This service sounds particularly silly. It’s Kozmo.com all over again, only with the added benefit of booze delivery. But, as this 2013 post at The Verge explains, companies like Amazon and Google are getting into the delivery business (to date, not terribly successfully — remember how Uber was going to deliver all your stuff to you, too?) to collect information about their customers. I mean, it’s one thing if your corner liquor store knows you like Makers or Ketel One, but it’s another thing entirely for Amazon to know that about you.

    Then again, when you see how profitable a highly successful company like WunWun really is, maybe this Amazon idea isn’t half bad!

      Amazon already knows.

      Yeah, sometimes my naïveté surprises even me.

    People actually live more than an hour away from their booze establishment of choice?

      I think the issue is less one of drive time and more one of “I’ve already been drinking and misjudged how much I had at home.”

      Also, alternately, you don’t need to put pants on to take an Amazon delivery.

    This is their test run for cannabis drone delivery service. Jeff Bezos has been playing the long game.

      Flying blunts are here, they are just unevenly distributed.

      In Seattle weed delivery is already within an hour, 24/7, from dispensaries. They even have apps. Sorry you people had to find out this way.

      Booze delivery and Tinder means you can skip the humiliating bar scene and at last make stupid drunk choices in the privacy of your own home! Then you can just sit on your own toilet and cry and totally avoid bar toilet cooties! Win Win!

        But, but Tindr and booze delivery *combined* (BuzzTindr?) = gamechanger.

      Our hoverboards may be kinda lame, but honestly, the future’s awesome. Stupid-fast family sedans, booze on demand, and lots and lots of warm, sunny days. Grover Cleveland wishes he had it so good. All he had to pass the time was room-temperature whisky and adultery. Suck it, Grover!
