What Are You Drinking? V2. Frosty Jacks - For The Discerning Pisshead

[F.U.B.A.R.]

Just finished my first half bottle of vodka for the day.

I think I might have a drink problem...

 

[Tranced]

On my fourth drink of the morn (two cups of tea & a pint of Berocca came first), a strong coffee with lashings of 'Irish Meadow' (v cheap Baileys substitute) instead of milk
The bottle says it's authentically blended, which is a real relief

Aldi do a decent snidey baileys, although I think I've put myself off by drinking the bottle. Went nice with a coffee though.

Yer, gets a bit sickly after a while, but half the bottle slipped down nicely last night with loads of ice & topped up with koko coconut 'milk' before I moved onto the more solid, reliable Rioja

You have if you haven't got any more!

 

[F.U.B.A.R.]

You have if you haven't got any more!

Exactly. And I can't afford any more either.

Looks like it's time for weed...



Edit: Fuckin hell Shambs; Irish cream on crunchy nut cornflakes - that sounds absolutely fan-bloody-tastic!


Edit 2: Aah, more vodka and Polish lager (only 7.5% though, so I am cutting down - honest...)

The merest thought of the stink of whiskey makes me want to throw up. Its about as appetizing as pyridine, or isocyanides to be quite honest. Wine has a similar effect on me, as does champagne. Doesn't matter what kind, in either case, the merest whiff either makes me retch.

And to go with coffee, IMO tia maria in a cup of a good quality espresso made from arabica beans, a nice dark roast preferably would be better than baillys. Although I don't tend to drink much coffee, because its a bit of a nuisance to prepare, because I've yet to replace my cafetiere, and as such have to set up a buchner funnel and filter paper, brew the coffee in a pan, and use a vacuum pump to pull it through into a clean flask before decanting it into a cup. And I more or less prefer tea, white teas preferably, with some lemon balm for flavour, or lady grey with balm, either sweetened with honey. Its less effort to make, and I can still have me a brew if the vac pump is already in service doing something else.

That said, I think I'm going to go buy some cold beer and drink the lot, in a toast to sovia, may her soul find rest. Because I fucking miss her. Felt way more for her than I realized. Amd mpw sje's gone. Calls for a lot of beer and moggies. At least, some beer now and the rest plus a handful of moggies and chlormethiazole, w/ a goodly shot of morphine or dipropionylmorphine (note I do NOT advise people combine these, chlormethiazole in particular has a very steep dose-response curve and will off you as easily as barbiturates will, since it acts in a similar way, binding the barbiturate recognition site on GABAa receptors not the benzo sensitive sites. I am used to it, I take it 3xa day, every day, to prevent seizures (although strictly speaking it is not listed or licensed as an anticonvulsant in the BNF. On the other hand it works for me very well indeed, and whats more, despite being on it for several years, I am not physically dependent upon it, surrprised me, that I could get away with that but nevertheless, no physical dependency if I abruptly take a break from it for a few days. So, got my doc to put me on it, because licensed or not, for me it works and works a charm, as well as being extremely fast acting, at least as quickly as a shot of spirits, probably quicker and when a seizure is about to kick off, I'll take a couple of heminevrin caps and it'll come down on a nacent seizure like ten tons of red hot bricks.)

Mr Limpet-C, I applaud your hot beverage choice & dedication to preparation when you get around to having a coffee

I'm sorry about the loss of your friend & potential love

Don't feel bad for what you didn't say, you couldn't know what was going to happen - I hope you take some comfort in the fact that what you did say resulted in her wanting a good friendship with you when she was alive

That sounds like it would curdle like all fukkery in one's belly. I can but presume it doesn't. Kinda reminds me of one of the weirder requests I had as a barman many, many moons ago - Bailey's and red wine combined in a glass. I confirmed the order more than once before committing and, yes, it did curdle in the glass... but apparently this was exactly what was desired. People iz wee-urd

Edit: Fuckin hell Shambs; Irish cream on crunchy nut cornflakes - that sounds absolutely fan-bloody-tastic!

You have no idea, Mr Bar, no idea at all

(until or unless you try it that is - tis a regular xmas brekky for me)

Sounds good, LC. I'm also a fan of Tia Maria + Jameson's (has to be Irish whiskey anyway) or a shot of Tia Maria inna pint of Guinness. Both double yum imo.

Also recently heard about Bailey's + Jameson's + Guinness (which apparently luxuriates under the just a teensy-weensiest offensive moniker of "The Car Bomb" ) which sounds both (mostly) hideous and (just a smidge) intriguing at the same time.

PS: I is currently drinking the last of a bottle of Co-Op's "Lime Tree" chardonnay which ain't half bad for a fiver imo.

 

[Limpet_Chicken]

Lol @ carbomb. Makes me think of my manhattan project codeine linctus/vodka/lime soda/lime juice/lime and lemon slice, and diethyl ether shot in a wee cup-let on top, trapped with lime and lemon slices cut in appropriate dimensions.

As far as ANY cocktail or drink containing whiskey it is hideous and only intriguing in the same way if you found the body of a dead guy in the woods, you might poke it in the eyes with a sharp stick to see if it went 'squelch', if it came right out, or if it was so rotten inside it burst in an oozing swamp of pus and wriggling, writhing maggots. Its that kind of intriguing if it involves whiskey. And about as tempting to drink as a mug of luke-warm rancid pus, with a few live, wriggling maggots dropped in, with a few at the chrysalis stage, so they went 'crunch' and burst between your teeth. Maybe spiced with a tad of butyric acid.

Hell I'd about as soon drink that filthy excuse for a spirit as I would throw a liter of phenylacetone out the window whilst jewish coppers walk under the house, giving a hitler-salute and shouting 'sieg heil coppers, go drown in P2P' ! whilst waving my dick out the same window, bouncing my scrotum up and down in my hands.

Really, really not going to tempt me into ANY whiskey based anything being accepted by my tastebuds. Even the stench makes me retch. I quite literally find the odor of hydrogen sulfide more acceptable than I do that of whiskey. They are both vile, and both bloody poison. But the whiskey is probably worse.

As for wines..god no. Just NO.

And as for the albanian lass, of course I feel fucking shitty man, for what I didn't tell her. I'd grown to love her. And I never got to tell her 'I love you' and 'you want to come get some really naughty autie?' make some synthetic magic and take it to bed afterwards, want to throw down the sleeping bag and cushions and pillows in your lab, or mine?'. First time I'd have gone and got together in a physical relationship in 11-12 years or so. Shit even the old man started going on at me for not eating today. Ended up buying and eating 2 family sized tiramisu, mostly to shut him up. That and I'm now drinking cold beer and puffing on a half corona in her memory, although all the same wishing she was by my side, working together at some organic chem project. Can just imagine, us at dinner 'hey will you pass the salt please hun?' and after 'hey, do us a favour and grab us the sodium, top shelf hun, the double-bagged grey metal brick labelled 'danger, pyrophoric' in black magic marker' or 'you might want to add that borohydride a bit slower/faster there hun' 'watch it with that LiAlH4', reminding each other to keep tabs on the dates our gas mask canisters were installed and when to change them.

I just know we'd have made a real good couple, even if she wasn't autistic (my usual type is classically autie, although dated fair few aspies in my time, and kinda have a case of the flaming hots for this one lass w/ rett's syndrome, who's an absolute stunner although haven't dated her, still a friend, and I certainly would given the chance) but this lass, the one who offed herself, we would have made a great couple and a solid team at the benchtop.

I am just waking up from a night on the evil that is Tequila. In Mexico atm. Might spend a few months just chilling here. Everything is cheap, the people chilled and waves good. Going to roll a spliff and make some coffee.

 

[Limpet_Chicken]

Heh tequila can give ya an almighty hangover. I'm about to grab another beer. Still miss the lady, and she's still on my mind Feel more than anything, guilty. For what was left unsaid. And sad, at her loss, her family's loss, and those who cared about her.

 

[F.U.B.A.R.]

Just found out my Polish shop now sells bottles of 95% spirit. Wahoo...!!

Oh dear god, that'll get all those nasty stains out of your internal organs 8(

I'm lying on my bed with a stinking cold, drinking a pint of freshly squeezed lime & soda with ice (for my throat *cough*) and a tumbler of red wine on the side (for my 'nerves' *aagghh*)
Sounds curdly I know, but it slips down nicely & my stomach is oblivious, just don't EVER put Soya milk in my coffee
I can't stomach visible curdling

For visible curdling, try Bailey's and lemonade.

When I was a 'mature' student, I went out drinking with the 18 year olds (possibly on more than one occasion ) and one of them told me he'd heard that if you mix Bailey's and lemonade, you'd die. Got the cunt to buy me one just to prove him wrong. I'm still here...

 

[steewith2ees]

Bailey's and lemonade ( - ) die

From orange juice stopping a bad trip, to smokable banana skins.... thank god Bluelight is on the case to shed some light on these obviously well thought out notions. I am tempted to say I have heard it all now but I know that will never be the case.

It was fuckin disgusting and curdled like a mofo. I must admit to a fleeting moment of doubt before necking the fucker...

 

[Tranced]

Would look pretty rubbish (but funny) in an obituary.

"loving father and bl poster, died before his time from a lethal combination of baileys and lemonade"

 

[Arnold]

Some 3,5% Mariestad's Swedish beer. The highest percentage beer you can legally buy in a supermarket here.
If you want real wine or beer you need to go to systembolaget, state controlled alchohol store. Which means a fucking long drive again to find one.
That's the downside when you like to be in the middle of bum fuck no where and the nearest big town is like an hours drive.

It ain't bad but it's water with a beer taste imo.

^ All of a sudden I've become more pro-Brexit

Currently drinking...

... which is quite tasty drunk neat in semi-reasonable quantities... but, having already experienced one of the worst hangovers I have ever landed myself with when testing that hypothesis to the dregs of a bottle, I'd probably best stop soon
