I think Monopolova is what I used to make Laura's Kahlua recipe last weekend. (It turned out wonderfully, by the way. Thanks, Laura!)
These are stone killers, little man. They ain't cuddly like me.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
We didn't move from TT to stop bugging people.
I thought maybe it could be read that the Buffy thread was formed at TT to stop bugging people, but that's not true either--it was one TV thread amongst many others. It's just plain not a true article. Bothers.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
In my Drinking Days, I fully believed that a better vodka made for a better hangover, but I don't know if that's actually true. And I was comparing Stoli to plastic bottles. Smirnoff is fine.

Oh hey, the guy on Gray's whose character name I still don't know is on today's Ellen. His real name is Jesse! Also, he was a teacher before he became an actor.

I totally bet you don't know the other guy's name either.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Gin recommendation?
There's a lot of variety with gin so it depends on your preference. Since you actively dislike it that might be moot.
I like Tanqueray as a classic brand. Junipero, 209, No. 10 are more upscale brands. Serious mixologists disdain Bombay Sapphire.
But I think if you're going to have one gin I'd recommend you get Broker's Gin which really does come with a tiny bowler on the bottlecap. (Also, it's a excellent gin.)

Yeah, but he's new! This guy has been on like a full season already!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Damn people, my best friend got me sick on gin literally 20 years ago (egad!), and I still can't drink it. Don't even like to smell it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The Buffy threads at TT predate "Don't startle the Buffistas" for sure. I want to say that was around Buffy 3?

See, you're totally forgetting the other guy who came on with pretty-eyes. What's his name? Crinkle-brow?
Hmm. I'll probably go Tanqueray.
