You were aware of your drinking habits years ago and until recently, you did not know how to express them to others. Especially folks you just met who have no idea your idea of a fun time is, well...gee, I can't remember. I know it had something to do with something.
Time to actually do something with those bottle caps you were collecting for three years. Stop chucking them at one another in an attempt to see who can fit the most in the bowling ball girl-boobs.
Ideas we will most likely be putting to use next semester:
1) Making a doormat. Arrange the caps in whatever design you want and decide if you want to put them into the ground, embed into a carpet-like material, or make a resin mold. If you really want to make it interesting, use a few bottles in the design as well.
2) Make a beer cap curtain. You know those cheesy, beaded curtains every Hollywood fortune teller has? Yeah, make one out of beer caps and cord. All you have to do is drill two tiny holes in each cap and string it through. Or be lazy and duct tape them on, I will never know.
3) Make a poster. Arrange your bottle caps in a design, get some resin, smooth out the surface and put a picture hanger on it. Done.
4) Play checkers. Paint half black, half red. Voila! You have a checkers set now.
5) Switch out your bass guitar tuning pegs. Take two of your caps, superglue them together, covering the peg. Works best with a bass, but a regular guitar might work if you're careful.
6) Play cards with them. Note: This works with Pabst Blue Ribbon only. Collect the whole set!
This will probably have secondary posts in the upcoming semester, so cheers to the beginning! Stay sharp y'all.

I used to collect bottle caps as well, when my friends and I were taking a beer trip around the world (we didn't have the money to actually travel around the world). We came up with two things we could do, build a giant wall map of the world using the bottle caps, and also to build a bar and embed the bottle caps in the bar counter using a clear resin. Let us know what you end up doing!

Bottle cap collecting actually seems like a worthy hobby (like stamps, y'know?), and one my own dad used to do back in his drinking days.
Admittedly, being as huge a geek as I am I look at this and think "Fallout?!"

Had no idea blue ribbon put those on the caps.

All of my bottle caps until now have been wasted. No more.
And, the only problem with collecting the PBR bottle caps is that I have to actually DRINK PBR. Which I'm just not willing to do.

^Ha, that's what I used to think as well. Then I sucked it up, bought a 12pack, noticed that it tasted incredibly better than other cheap domestics.

I have a friend who has all of the Sam Adams caps... all of them. It took him like three years. Cirrosis is impending.
