I'm getting drunk!!!

[Lady Vader]

O_o

Is that for real???

[Sanis Prent]

if all goes well, I'll get mine this summer!

[Lady Vader]

You WILL?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

When did THIS possess your mind?

And why didn't you tell me???

O_o

[Shawn]

How cool. :) Come visit South Florida sometime.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

it's so very real. Just got it today.

94 on the written test, and passed the speed test.

12 drinks under 7 minutes.

And I almost out of vodka. crapola.

[Lady Vader]

I have this lil tiny bottle here of vodka, next to a bag of green tea (long story). :)

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

well, the monarch is gone. and before any of you can say it's cheap garbage, I know it is. but I didn't buy it, so you cna't blame me. If it's here, I'll drink it.

oh wait! I forgot obout the absolut; stupid frigde, everything's too tall for me

[Shawn]

o_O

Her career is going to be short-lived, if she keeps this up.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

har har. I only do this every now and then.

eh. I don't really plan on drinking too much as it is. 3 vodka shots is enough for me. Curse my short attention span.

[Sanis Prent]

Whiskey:

To hell with Jack, unless its Gentleman Jack.

3 big must-haves

Jim Beam - bread and butter. Sweet taste, distinct flavor. Excellent for mixed drinks, and a decent shot.

Crown Royal - Expensive, but VERY mild. Excellent quality. Best for mixed drinks and mixed shots

Maker's Mark - Also quite expensive. Sweet as Beam, but stronger punch. My personal favorite. Excellent in any incarnation.


And Rie...I KNOW I told you about my application at "On Tap" I told you I'd be working as a server, and the owner said he'd give me bartending training.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

one of my instructors loves drambuie; I wanna try it sometime. Amaretto sour is my personal favorite, though.

I did learn quite a few shots the other day, too. Interesting names people come up with.

[Morgan Evanar]

English whiskey owns you.

Bell's and Teachers!

[Vinny Red]

I've got a good one...Little bit of banana liqueur, some kaluha and some milk and just a touch of Vodka, makes a good shot.

Lots of others up my sleeve..always wanted to be a bartended, especially after seeing Cocktail

BTW, Congrats :)

[Sanis Prent]

Amaretto sours = pantydropper

This goes for sex on the beach, kamikaze, screwdriver, and buttery nipple. Chicks diggem.

There's one with blue raspberry and 151 called a flaming blue jesus. Its illegal to make in a bar here, but I've always wanted to try it.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Many thanks :)

youknow, the only drink I've ever used banana liqueor in was a screaming monkey.

and don't get me started on how disgusting I think the cement mixer is *shudders*

I did hear abouth this one drink, the flaming lamborghini (sp?). Looks awesome. I wanna do alot of flair, though, and extreme bartending is someting I plan on doing. gots to get me some special pour spouts, though.

[Sanis Prent]

The worst shot I ever had in my life was a "Kaiser Punch". Its what you call a chain shot (several shots taken down in quick succession).

Basically, you line up four shot glasses. The first three have Jagermeister. The last....Tabasco.

I think I saw my toenails when I threw up.

[Vinny Red]

Heh, sounds nasty. I can think of a few bad ones that I've done.

Cement mixer is right up there. That's just plain gross. But then you've got your prairie fires ( tequilla and tabasco sauce), or Black Death ( tequilla and Jack )

Actually I think most of the bad ones all involve tequilla. Funny how that is

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

List of Christin's least favorite drinks:

911 - rumplemintz, jaegermeister, goldschlager

Liquid Cocaine/Silver Bullet/Screaming Nazi - jaegermeister, rumplemintz, 151 proof rum.

Black and Gold - goldschlager, jaegermeister

Surfer on Acid - malibu, jaegermeister, pineapple juice

Hot Shots - cinnamon schnapps, tobasco


and that's a small list of the nastiness I've seen. I've taken straight shots of goldschlager before; hated it to the point of insanity

[Sanis Prent]

cause tequila = liquid hell. Only to be used in long islands or margaritas.

Destroy it in all other circumstances.

[Marcus Telcontar]

SILancy is now the official B&G Bar tender :p

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

*does a happy dance* :D

People who have been here a while should remember this running gag I used to do :)

[Sanis Prent]

Actually, cinnamon schnapps are just as bad as tequila IMO.

I ralphed mightily off a pint of lukewarm goldschlager that I chugged down :(

nasty nasty stuff.

but I remember my puke being so glittery :)

[The Hunter]

I actually like Goldschlager. And Aftershock. In fact, cinammon schnapps is about the only type of alcohol I like. :|

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

LOL!!!

goldschlager just reminds me of robitussin; and I still have nightmares about that nasty nasty medicine. Been at least seven years since I've had any, and I still get chills just thinking about it.

[Sanis Prent]

Nah, it just reminds me of mouthwash. Anybody remember Act Mouthwash...the one with the squeeze bottle that automatically filled a serving top thing.

Thats what cinnamon schnapps taste like. Good for rinsing my mouth out. Bad for drinking. Blech!

Oh and I remembered...I have a use for tequila, so I can't throw away my Cuervo just yet.

Tequila = excellent for grilling chicken

[Vinny Red]

I had a friend who had a rough night with the Goldschlager. He still has the golden shoes to remind him of that night too

Anyone ever have that Fireball Whisky?? Tastes like Cinnamon hearts, going down, so imagine what it's like coming back up....

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

hmmm, I should try that. of course it would help if I knew how to cook.

a meal for me is usually a coupla packs of ramen. Translation, flavored sawdust.

Though I can make a really good spaghetti sauce, and I also know how to make crepes. In theory, anyways.

[Sanis Prent]

ACK NO!

I have never eaten Ramen and I never will.

My love is cooking. Its one of those things I could do every day of my life and die a happy man.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

necessity breeds desperation, or however that goes; I don't know.

You'd think growing up in an Italian family I'd learn something, no?

Charley, you have a home with me if ever you decide to come to Seattle.

[Vinny Red]

Whoo Hoo! fellow Italian! I'm not alone!

As long as you've got that Pasta sauce down, giddy up, you're good to go

[Lady Vader]

Oh yeah... doh... ok, I remember now, Charley. Momentary lapse of memory... (Momentary?? HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHA!!! Try like ALL THE FREAKIN TIME!) :lol

I had sex on the beach once... what? why is everyone looking at me funny? O_o NO! NOT THAT WAY! :verymad I had the DRINK called sex on the beach! SHEESH!!!! :rolleyes

As a matter of fact, Charley was present when I asked for it. he recommended it... the drink, that is. Guh... I'm gonna shut up now before this ends up sounding even worse. |I

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

I'm also Irish :)

[Sanis Prent]

English/Irish/Scottish/Dutch/German/Polish/Italian/Hispanic/Cherokee/Creek/Chinese :)

[Vinny Red]

I'm Scitalian

Scottish/Italian

[Lady Vader]

*Looks at Sanis*

Mutt. ;)


I am:

Half Spanish (Cuban)

Quarter Irish

Quarter Lebanese

(Hmmm... with that combo, it would explain why my temper is so volitile. :p)

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

lol, LV!

Anyways, vodka+empty stomach=weird me.

I'm gonna find some food. I'm out of ramen though, so I'm gonna have to come up with something creative.

Let's see here, tortilla chips, barbeque sauce, a slice of bread, and couscous. What would MacGuyver do?

[Azure Regalia]

:lol

He'd probably use a paper clip to slice the bread and then do some other nifty thing with said paper clip you didn't think possible. :p

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

I ate crispix + fake spray butter

it was good.

Also good is fat free popcorn + tony chachere's creole seasoning

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

spaghettios right out of the can is one of my favorites.

and so is lobster and a nice rare steak.

*likes her meat bleeding*

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

=^,,^=

(tosses sIlancy over shoulder to carry home with him)

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

*smiles happily*

wait, what are you planning to do with me?

[Marcus Telcontar]

Aussie all the way.

Hmmm... ever eaten cat food? Quite nice on toast.

[Figrin D'an]

Me = 50% Norwegian, 25% English, 25% German

I love to cook as well... when I have the time... :\
I actually thought about culinary school for a while....


... and if you want a powerful, but tasty drink, try a Baltimore Zoo. :smokin

[Marcus Telcontar]

If you want something akin to cat whizz.... Fosters. There's a reason Australia exports that stuff

[Morgan Evanar]

I'm sorry, but Fosters is a decent beer compared to Budwiser or Coors.

Gimme Amber Bock.

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

(flushes that pseudobitter down the toilet)

Why not killians or guinness instead? I can understand some people not liking true guinness (its a unique taste I guess), but killians should be a crowd pleaser. I used to hate it, but my taste in beer started gravitating toward bitter ales, reds, and stouts...so its becoming a pleaser.

As for your plain, straight-up draft....I can find nothing that competes with Sapporo.

Fancy that. Japanese beer. German engineered. :)

[Gav Mortis]

I've always enjoyed a good pint of Heineken myself, Budweiser is a good beer IMO, I'd rather be elitist and claim some other, less well known beer is much better but I'm not a connosieur of beers, I just stick to what I like. :)

My drink is a double Southern Comfort on the rocks, although I'm under orders to try a good glass of Jim Beam sometime. Perhaps this Saturday, speaking of which, I will be having my first glass of Mari Mayan's. Yay! :D

[Cirrsseeto Quez]

If you're a double on the rocks guy, might also wanna hit Makers Mark or Gentleman Jack. Those are exceptionally good taken straight like that.

Makers can be a bit stout though, so be forewarned :)

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

I've heard that Strongbow ale is really good, though there's not really a place up here where I am that sells it.

[Kiattaarra Feessaarro]

:lol

Reading this thread, I realize how absolutely CLUELESS I am about most of the tastes of the beers and whatnots you guys have mentioned. Hell, I've never really been tipsy (cept maybe once, about a year ago, but I wasn't wobbling about... more like sleeping on my feet). And I've NEVER been drunk. :p

I myself have found I can't really drink too much of flat wines. They give me horrid tummy aches, and sometimes headaches (something to do with some ingredient in the wine making *shrugs*). I like mixed stuffs and bubbly drinks (champaign or asti (I think that's how it's spelled)).

[Figrin D'an]

I can't stand Budweiser or Coors... :x

The only American macrobrew that I can stomach is Miller.... even then, I don't touch it that much.

Sam Adams is good.. I guess that can be considered a macrobrew. I find myself ordering it when the choices are limited, and it hasn't disappointed me at all.

Killians is great... love the Irish Red. :)

Heineken is pretty good...

Leinenkugels rules... but most of you probably have never heard of it.

Hacker-Pschorr Weisse is a great light/medium beer.

[Charley]

Miller?

MILLER???!!??

(Draws and quarters Figrin)

YUCK!

[Figrin D'an]

Like I said... I don't touch it that much...

and it's better than Budweiser and Coors.


Although all three are pretty pathetic...

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

Asahi Dry. Pretty much the only beer I'll drink.

It's either that or Ichiban; yet another Japanese beer.

[Marcus Telcontar]

Even Fosters is better than Coors or Budweiser.



That's saying something

[Novi Paran]

hmmmm... here in the burbs, we usually like our alcohol in quantity... Mickey's Big Mouth and Budweiser. Along with some Jim Beam, Jose Cuervo, and Jack Daniels.

[Sanis Prent]

Bud is alright. Not exceptional, but a good staple. Coors, however, does indeed suck.

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

The first beer I ever had was a Coors. I think I was 11. There's this beer at a microbrewery restaurant called Gordon Beirsch up here that's absolutely great. On the menu it's called a Marzen, and if my memory serves me correctly, it's a house brew. Wonderful stuff.

I was 19 when I had that. Along with a shot of JD, and an amaretto sour. I still remember watching Battlefield Earth after that and thinking it was the stupidest movie ever. And I love bad scifi.

Mike's Hard Lemonade is ok, but I really can't stand that Hard Raspberry Iced Tea crap.

[Charley]

if you like ciders (and only some do), theres a really great one that is hard to find...called "Cider Jack"

I love it.

[Morgan Evanar]

I disagree with your opinion on budwiser. Its a lousy ANYTHING. Yuck.

[Charley]

No. I will show you bad beer. Trust me, Bud is average.

[Morgan Evanar]

What, like Natty? =p

[Marcus Telcontar]

If it's worse than Bud, it must like a liquid dump

[Charley]

Miller, Natty, the Beast, Busch, Coors, Warsteiner, and a few others.

[Damon Strand]

I ain't too picky about my liquor but yes there is some stuff I would never touch!!!

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

I just got a new shaker! :D

Tevit gave it to me, it's so cool!!!!! It came in a set; all chrome and fancy-like.

*does yet another happy dance*

[Sanis Prent]

Yeah, my buddy Chet has a set like that.

[Lilaena De'Ville]

Ahem, Battlefield Earth DID suck.

And I like Midori Sours, Long Island Ice Tea, Sex on the Beach (bring a blanket if you don't like sand in places you don't want to think about!), AMF (Adios Mother F**ker..dont' remember whats in it, but there's a lot of it!)....hmmm Fuzzy Navels are good too, but only as a drink, not a real fuzzy navel, that's gross.

Never really had tequila, but I like vodka. Peppermint schnapps almost took the enamel off my teeth once... :p That stuff is STRONG! I think my nose hairs curled when I drank it!

And I am such a lightweight it isn't even funny. In May, I will probably demonstrate my ability to laugh at anything and everything when under the influence. Or, maybe I won't. Only if other people are getting stupid too. :D

[Charley]

(buys a liter of Makers Mark to share with LD)

[Loklorien s'Ilancy]

*is ashamed that she actually went to the theatre to see BE*

at least I was somewhat drunk when I saw it; my senses were a little dulled to the horrendousness of it. My friend and I spent most of the movie throwing things back and forth and flirting horribly with each other as it was.

[Loki Ahmrah]

I really don't see the point in all that tequila nonsense, I've never enjoyed it. Drinking is drinking; not licking, swallowing and sucking - has just realised when a bird offers him a "Tequila Slammer" she isn't talking about a drink :eek - but drinking tequila requires far too much effort as far as I am concerned - plus they have no taste, the effort must distract you from the taste. I'm sure it's water.

But I get me absinthe tomorrow! Yay! :)

[Anbira Hicchoru]

Gav, join me in the Tequila hater's club :D

[Gav Mortis]

Join it? I'm one of the founders. :)

It's quite funny you saying that with a Count Dooku avatar, I can see it now:

"Join me Obi-Wan, and together we can destroy the tequila!"

[Charley]

(Lego Dooku dives into the bottle of Cuervo, impaling the worm on his curved lightsaber)

[Arya Ravenwing]

I bet I don't like Maker's Mark. :D Mebbe, though.
