7''Peterā dzīve''[[note]]Latvian for "Peter's Life"[[/note]] is a series of shorts on Website/YouTube by [[https://www.youtube.com/user/KuRm1S Davis Anderson]]. Each episode follows the humorously surreal life of a man named Peter and a small set of recurring characters. Peter narrates the less-than-sixty-second shorts in Latvian, though English subtitles are provided for earlier episodes (and more are on the way).

11!! ''Peterā dzīve'' contains examples of:
12
13* CantHoldHisLiquor: Seemingly nobody in the series can handle drinking Brew without passing out instantly. The series exploits this for humorous effect.
14* ContinuityNod: Peter takes a photo of himself with a naked Janis in ''makšķerēšana''[[note]]"fishing"[[/note]]. Future episodes that occur in Peter's room have that photo posted on the wall.
15* FishingForSole: Peter uses the brew as bait in ''makšķerēšana''[[note]]"fishing"[[/note]], and manages to hook a naked Janis.
16* GenieInABottle: Peter encounters one on the street in ''lampa''[[note]]"lamp"[[/note]].
17* MotorMouth: The narration in each short is very fast. As a result, the events in the shorts go by unexpectedly quickly, adding to the humour.
18* PastLifeMemories: In ''zobu pasta''[[note]]"toothpaste"[[/note]], Peter drinks Brew mixed with toothpaste and discovers that he was a cactus in his past life.
19* RunningGag: Often, characters that drink (or sometimes even touch) a bottle of Brew will pass out and wake up naked in inexplicable places.
20 ** This gag is DoubleSubverted in ''pamošanās''[[note]]"waking up"[[/note]], when a naked Peter wakes up and grabs a bottle of Brew. He suddenly wakes up fully clothed, only to pick up another bottle and wake up naked again.
21* UnusualEuphemism: Except for the first episode, called ''šņabis''[[note]]"vodka"[[/note]], the alcoholic drink is always referred to as "the brew" in subtitles. The bottles of Brew are always labelled ''dzira'', meaning "swill."
22* WhatDidIDoLastNight: Getting drunk and waking up naked in strange situations is a common occurrence in the series, often triggered by drinking "the brew".
