“Drinks well with others”

“Drinks well with others” is a saying that has been printed on many images. The saying is similar to “works well with others” (said of an employee) and “plays well with others” (said of a child).
 
“Drinks well with others” was posted on the newsgroup alt.drunken.bastards on June 24, 1998. The saying was used as the title for a 2004 book.

10 June 2004, Star Tribune (Minneapolis, MN), “What a card” by Kristin Tillotson, pg. 1E:
We live in an era that frowns on humor around alcohol consumption, yet MikWright marches forth with cards, coasters and T- shirts bearing such messages as “Drinks well with others” and “Monica, dear, that was a precious little story. Now, be a sweetheart and fix Mommy another martini.”

Sr. Partner came back here showing off his new T-shirt: “DRINKS WELL WITH OTHERS”. Casual wear rarely sports such profound truth. We all nod

Today I bought a shirt that says “drinks well with others”... but that’s also funny because it’s not an invitation for others to talk to me.
