yeah drink plenty of water try not to eat greasy foods take some kind of vitamins , multi vitamin, fish oil, acidelphias, my spelling sucks but try this to start and keep drinking your water maybe have it check to see if its safe to drink first
And above all, don't get banned.
Malt Whisky
The water of life
Where did that metaphor spring from.Quote:

What/s the secret, Les?
No tastebuds.
Whisky is an Anglicised attempt at uisge beatha which is Gaelic for water of life.Quote:

Avoid mixing lots of other drinks during the night if you want to keep your brain in your skull the next day. I don't find the morning after too unpleasant if I just stick to malt. In fact I feel suffused in a sweet malt afterglow and thoroughly detoxed (whatever that is).
It does help if you like the taste of whisky though.
I feel sure that you're the only person I know who would know that Gaelic etymology thing.Quote:

Noice.
My missus' dad has invested much of himself in getting me to like whiskey and absolutely insists that I join him in a nip whenever I go to their house. I've tried the mixing with water but he won't let me put any lemonade in.
He absolutely refuses to believe that it's possible to dislike the stuff if you persevere. He has a similar outlook regarding olives.
I've been engaged in this project for four years now.
I don't think there is much hope for success :(
i don't like whisky either but this still made me :lol::earl:Quote:

The hardest liquor I can enjoy seems to top off somewhere between 15-18 %, but then again, I'm a pussy.
Have you tasted absinthe?Quote:

Sounds helpful. I really should have a try.
I hate all liquorice and anise flavored liquors, and this is a repeat statement so you know I'm serious. Other anise ones that I've tried and will avoid the rest of my life include Balkan Ouzo and Chinese Baijiu. Instant vomausea.Quote:

If the hardest liquor you like scans in at between 15 and 18%, then you don't like hard liquor.
Shirley.
Yes, that would be the short way to say it.Quote:

I'm thinking like fortified wine and, idfk what else.
You hit it on the nose, specifically vermouths.
Hey did you drop these? At first I thought it was a lumpy leather coin purse, but on second examination I'm sure they belong to you. You didn't throw them away on purpose, did you?
Bitch, real hard men drink vermouth with other hard men.Quote:

Bacardi used to export a rum called 151 (proof ) but I don't know if the do anymore.
I've never tasted anything over 40% that I've liked. Southern Comfort is around that mark, I think, and is quite palatable.Quote:

Also, you should pose for pics with the Bookers and invite Mary to do the same with her vermouth.
I would then post a pic of myself drinking 4% beer with one eyebrow quizzically raised.
Mary's wife would then name the club and we'd be friends forever.
I wouldn't want to be in your ghey spirits club, anyways... :snooty:Quote:

That wouldn't be important unless you're a catcher.
After we are all dead how will that work?Quote:

That's me on the far left btw.

You're much more mottled than I imagined. Like the outside of a suid's lung.Quote:

It would work because we'd all take a ghey suicide pact (to be activated the moment one of the triumvirate got mortally wounded in battle or w/e).
That final moment would encapsulate the friendship into a tangible but tiny singularity which would then plummet downward and come to rest at the centre of the earth and outlast both the planet and the encompassing 'verse.
So the hippie set you up, then.
It's actually a true line from a real scene from the actual epilogue to Firefly which I wrote on the inside cover of a Simplex book a couple of years ago :snooty:
I once drank an 'along the line' at a nightclub on a dare. This drink is a nip of each of the topshelf from the dispensers above the bar. It ended up being a three quarters full 8oz. glass filled with this brackish diahorrea looking liquid. The friend who dared me to do it and drank the same concoction with me ended up in hospital with alcohol poisoning (wuss) and I lost most of a day and woke up with a very sore head (I did a starfish onto my concrete driveway), and a very concerned girlfriend who thought I and my friends were binge drinkers. Aaaaah the good thymes....
Nice Post
I know of a guy who did a goat when he was pished up, but I've never heard of starfish abuse.
Unless it's a heemasex euphemism.
Ditto.Quote:

The only abuse was to myself, a starfish is falling full length with your arms out, I don't remember doing it ofc, my girlfriend saw me fall over, came over to check on me, and apparently I opened one eye, said "Owwww" and then closed it again. She left me to it for awhile.....Quote:
