This is the best thing to happen to dumped girlfriends: no longer will we have to clutch a bottle glass of wine and shovel daintily spoon Ben & Jerry’s into our sad faces on a Friday night. Two of the best vices, alcohol and ice-cream, have combined superpowers to create the artisanal adult-only frozen fun of Drunken Udder.

We all do things we probably shouldn’t have after knocking back a few drinks, but what about finally getting the guts to talk to that guy buy that Alexander Wang bag? Alcohol as a spending stimulator as opposed to a social lubricant? Order a drink and help out the economy! Recent articles in the New York Times and GQ discuss shopping irresponsibly—and how it’s a growing trend.
