What's wrong with wine? And I'm American, so the standards of alcohol vary from you Ukians. Or maybe they don't. I'm so detached from from my peers and culture that I truly have no idea what's what.

Dixanadu 06-26-2009 08:08 PM

I'd prefer Ukians. Since, Irish is untrue (Republic), and British is untrue (Politics etc), so the official, suckass term is Northern Irish.

But with Ukians, I feel so much better. Thank you.

And nothing is wrong with wine, usually it's the first alcoholic drink given to someone. But if I was offered a bottle of wine, I wouldn't say no.

Wings of Fire 06-26-2009 08:09 PM

He's from Ireland, his standards of alcohol differ from everyones.

Oh yeah, I forgot about that. XDDDD

Also, what the hell are you people doing posting at...5 am?

Wings of Fire 06-26-2009 08:15 PM

I'm trying to catch a Feebas, dunno about him.

Dixanadu 06-26-2009 08:19 PM

We just know how to have a good time. Ye fuckin' bastard ye, I'll knock'a fuck outta ye wey this here fist'a mine! Gone away home tey yer mammy, fuckin' eejit. xD

For me, I'm tired as hell. If I sleep, I'll not get up at the desired time I wish. Since I'm heading somewhere at 10AM.

Alcar 06-26-2009 10:03 PM

I like everything. Except Vodka, after the incident, I've never been able to keep it settled in my stomach :(

Also, Budweiser and every other beer from America is piss weak.

Yay for binge drinking :D

Alcar...

Nate 06-27-2009 01:10 AM

Strangely, I'm the same with Vodka. It's always made me feel a little ill, but especially bad after the one and only time that I puked from alcohol - I had drunk a third of a bottle that cost about $4 for a litre. Cheaparse crap.

I don't drink beer. Depending on the people with whom I am socialising, I'll either drink rum & coke (the most manly I am capable) or something girly and colourful.

Wil 06-27-2009 04:38 AM

Only thing that really turns my stomach at several paces is sambuca. I love it at first, but then I had my own incident. Only time I’ve ever truly lost memory to alcohol.

Munch's Master 06-27-2009 05:23 AM

I fairly like Sambuca. Did you do that drinknig game where you set fire to the sambuca while poured on your hand or something?

I agree with Used that wine is nice- red wine at least. Dont like white wine or champagne.

i like most other alcohol too- love brandy, love rum, like benedictine (very hard to find drink that is normally expensive, but in 1 Northern town is both plentiful and cheap), and like whisky. But as I say- I dont tend to get to have nearly enough of it to get drunk.

when i was staying with my uncle and working on the farm with him not long ago, we both had shots of Bendictine at christmas. my uncle had eaten some choclate before hand (not good before shots) and proceeded to cough and splutter once he'd downed it, having to run in the bathroom with his face bright red, choking. i couldnt help laughing. but yeah, thats one of the few spirits i like.

i used to work with this bloke that used to drink whiskey around the bloody farm, and then drive the JCB around half pissed! he didnt even care if the boss caught him. he was the same one who almost run me over, i wonder why.

jesus, i have loads of drink related tales.

shaman 06-27-2009 06:03 AM

White rum ftw.

shaman.

Laser 06-27-2009 06:44 AM

At the moment ( I am an inexpiranced drinker) I have only liked cider out of the drinks I have drunk...oh and WKD but thats a given isn't it :)

joshkrz 06-27-2009 06:57 AM

Wine isn't good at all, I will throw up in 5 seconds drinking that.

Vodka is good, Smirnoff only. Anything else I can't drink.

Sambuka is great. Luxardos Black is the most expencive but the most tastey. It does get a bit sickly after a while beause its quite sweet.

WKD is hardly even alcoholic.

Cider is OK. Strongbow or Baumers is good. Anything else is just mixed chemicals. The stuff like White Lightning will me me badly ill and once made be seriously depressed / angry, I'm never drinking it again.

Beer is not good, if I had to choose it would be Becks.

Malibu Rum is quite nice, but again gets sickly after a while due to its sweet taste.

Best alcohol to have a lively night: Sambuka

Best alcohol to get drunk from: Absinthe :D, can you actually halucinate from that, I know it has wormwood (of something like that) in it but has anyone actually started seeing the green fairy because I haven't.

MA 06-27-2009 08:03 AM

i heard you see little green goblins if you make yourself paralytic from that stuff.

i had a mate that said he didnt drink cider because it made him 'angry' or something. i suppose it just affects some people like that.

joshkrz 06-27-2009 10:14 AM

Yerh but I've never had that with quality cider, only the cheap stuff chavs drink on street corners. I'm not keen on cider anyway. it's cheap and cheerful thats the only good thing.

Voodoo Hand 06-27-2009 11:10 AM

I guess if one drinks long enough, there will be an incident.
Tequila would be the culprit in my case.
The only thing I remember clearly is puking for about 3 hours, in Spanish.

......................

I don't really care for beer. I haven't really tried that many different kinds though. Wine and scotch are yum.

Interesting, in that the neophyte drinkers I have known don`t have any taste for Scotch, but will drink beer till it runs out most every hole they have.

Scotch is king in my house, but of late a new crown prince has raised his head.
Sailor Jerry Spiced Navy Rum (cheesy name, i know ) has been getting a lot of glass time. If you are a rummy give it a try, Jerry kicks Capt. Morgan in the nutz.
Oh, yeah it`s 92 proof, might have something to do with it.

MA 06-27-2009 11:26 AM

wine just tastes like vinegar to me. i've been advised to try 'Hock', which i think is sweeter.

i'm definately one of those people that drinks beer excessively, but am in no means a beginner.

Abelover444 07-22-2009 07:25 PM

I love alchahol.It tatses like sugar.mans sugar.HELL YEAH!I'm drunk right now,if yu didn't notice

Alcar 07-22-2009 07:33 PM

You're obviously drinking what I refer to as lolly water.

Which makes you:

a) A woman, or
b) Gay

Seeing as you're a male...

Alcar...

Leto 07-22-2009 08:34 PM

I enjoy some alcopops; really does make you feel like a douchey homo though (wouldn't mind if it were with Peter, he's a hot douchey homo whom I would most certainly drunkrape)

Vodka is absolutely horrid, tastes like nail varnish. can't drink it straight after the ever common incident

But in conclusion, none of you are this kid, so really aren't deserving of my undying affection.

Wings of Fire 07-22-2009 08:39 PM

I have an exceedingly low alcohol tolerance, I get easily drunk from alcopops.

I like em though.

Pilot 07-22-2009 08:43 PM

Wow, I wish I could get my hands on leaded gasoline. Old engines don't run right on this modern unleaded shite. Surely Optimus Prime was a connoisseur of Unleaded Fuel Only.

Oh cork it Pete, lollywater makes a great dessert.

Come over.

Nate 07-22-2009 09:07 PM

Like Leto, I enjoy alcopops but can only bring myself to drink them in the presence of The Gays. If I'm around straight men, I tend to go for a simple rum & coke, which is about as blokey as I'm able to get.

I can't drink beer - I just loathe the taste. Vodka makes my stomach unsettled but I'll drink it if there's nothing else.

Pilot 07-22-2009 09:08 PM

I like bourbon and coke. Having one right now in fact.

Desert wine/Ice wine is better.

Heh, and while you're in Scotland with the decoy I'll be with the REAL Joe where he actually lives.

The only thing I've had like that is Plum wine. God, that's to die for; I'll hammer an entire bottle before I know it's gone.

Weren't we going to do an exclusive antipodean Oddtour? Or would I be the third wheel getting in the way of your Letolovin'?

Strike Witch 07-22-2009 11:50 PM

I don't drink at all. Same on the drug front. I just hate the concept of losing my senses.

After all this talking about Abisinthe, I really want to try some

Nate 07-23-2009 04:03 AM

Ditto, actually.

Alcar 07-23-2009 04:15 AM

It's foul.

But an experience to remember.

It's great! Strong as fuck though, like really really stong. Never actually halucinated though. If you don't like aniseed then you will hate it though.

OANST 07-23-2009 07:35 AM

Anonyman! 07-23-2009 08:53 AM

I can only stomach vodka, wine, and other stuff. I still loathe alcohol in general though.

OANST 07-25-2009 08:16 AM

April and I got plastered on whiskey last night. We had a lot of fun until she threw up in the sink. Also, I had really hard time getting up for work this morning.
