Booze talk

[Miss Lockheart]

Okies, after talking lots about absinthe in the game section with Firesnake, I decided to make a thread about it, so everyone can talk about alcohol!! Which is the best, and which sucks.

Here are some of the other alcohols I like:

Red wine (mulled too)
Amaretto (yummy almond stuff)
Malibu, esp with pineapple juice
Apple sourz
Tia Maria
Schnapps
Baileys....

That's all I can think of for now, but I'm sure I will agree with lots of other people's choices, it's all good!

[Terminal Est]

Oooh, Absinthe. I have never had it-some Goth I am.

I am not a big fan of alcohol really, as I always overdo it, and then get myself ill. I have given true definition to the meaning ''wallowing in one's filth.''. Ew.

But I have had my moments, mostly stupors of seemingly stark raving mad bouts of intoxication.

Funny how it took me forever to figure out that one might drink alcohol for the taste, or for mild effect. In any case, here are some that I have tried, and enjoyed.

Smirnoff Vodka, (Not that fruit flavoured crap though.) Johnny Walker and Bailey's.
I also, to this day, enjoy exploring imported beers and ales...I hate all that American and Canadian piss-like beer...but many of them from Europe taste great. Only, they cost so much.

I am by no means a connoisseur of anything in this subject, and although I love red wine, I could not tell superior quality from some shack made nonsense.

[Miss Lockheart]

I've had my moments of stupor too. Once I was feeling really sorry for myself, so I got a half bottle of red wine, a half bottle of pina colada and a full bottle of Red Square (the one with all the stimulants like taurine in it, tastes like battery acid) and sat drinking the whole lot, whilst eating crabsticks. I got up the next morning (without hangover, I've never had one surprisingly enough) and found the kitchen sink was full of regurgitated crabstick, and had to clean it because my flatmate said she had done enough by putting me to bed! Ew!

I think a nip on special occasions is really nice, it's all I can really do now I have a little one to look after. It's one of the reasons I look forward to Christmas!

Ooh so what is Johnny Walker then, a spirit? It sounds like a whisky, which just makes me think of Southern Comfort and JD (I love JD but even a small amount makes me feel woozy). Yeah, and Smirnoff plain, on rocks, very nice.

I don't know much about beers, but I do agree the American ones are really weak, though Bud is nice on a really hot day. My brother knows more about European beer, he loves it in Germany and Belgium. And UK beer is just stupidly over-priced!

"A bottle of red, a bottle of white,
It all depends upon your appetite,
I'll meet you any time you want,
In our Italian Restaurant"

Only Cider/Beer and Vodka for me but i'm not one of your go out on friday get pished chavs. Mainly my brother gets drinks in for Scotland games (football) and i invite my friends he does with his and thats when i drink mainly...

Of corse you have to love Schnapps, Apple Sourz and shots ect to

Edit: Ah Johnny Walker tried that for the first time last year after the Johnny Walker Championship at Gleneagles it was pretty funny getting into the golf was easy but we had to que to get out it turns out they were handing out free bottles, pretty good

[Firesnake]

I am a easy person: I drink almost everything with alcohol in it and what won't kill me
accept the things I don't like to drink
I esspecially like baileys, amaretto and absinthe
myes and the blue stuff without a lable (no not spiritus)(I make it myself ^^)

[Miss Lockheart]

(claps) Like the poem Tidus!

I like the sweet cider, sometimes with black to make it extra fruity. Hee hee my brother's out now doing the townie chav thing, I bet he comes home and does something stupid again! Last week he barged in, pissed on the toilet seat, set the bath running (3AM!) and went to bed. He almost flooded my house, lucky I woke up, and he didn't remember a thing!

Ooooh Scotland fan! England have gone completely down the pan, you guys might have a good chance!

And Firesnake, what is this mysterious concoction of yours? Sounds yummy!

[Tidus2791]

Ah i wish i could call tose word mine but actually they are from a Billy Joel song Scenes from an Italian Resturant since i'm a music lover thats basically my way of saying i like wine

Your brother seems to have a striking resemblance to mine!

w00t yeah we have a good chance after beating France twice which i'm proud to say i was at the games! C'Mon Scotland.

20 20 another one i like

[Miss Lockheart]

20 20 now that's something I haven't tried, it looks tasty though. My mum used to drink it a lot.

I wonder if they have chavs anywhere else in Europe, or is it just our miserable island? I saw no chavs in Beijing, so it must be a Western thing at least. Cool I know a couple of Billy Joel songs, he's pretty good. I'm a sucker for some of those oldies, esp after an amaretto on rocks.

I used to make a lot of cocktails when I worked the bars in Barnsley, I got really good at it. I could make some of the more difficult shooters too, like red white and blue. Oh my god did I just admit to living in Barnsley!?

I live in Leeds now don't hate me!!!

[Firesnake]

my secret recepy will be a secret (one of the 3 secrets that drives you insane)

[Tidus2791]

Well i judge most places through football if i don't know anything about that area, so that doesn't say much about Leeds.

!OMG make me a Red white and Blue cocktail since thats my football teams colours.

I know about Chavs in England and Ireland up here we call them neds there trademark being Burberry hats and Buckfast. Don't know about anywhere else.
