My bad experience was with vodka. Screwdrivers specifically, which I haven't touched since although I'll drink other cocktails with vodka.

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.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
More gin for me, then!
Apparently I have cast-iron tastebuds. I've gotten violently ill from too much of one alcoholic drink, and food poisoning from one particular food item gone slightly off, and still consume both without flinching.
Apparently my stomach, my tongue and my brain all have a great working relationship; they've all agreed that, meh, it was just that once, the thing in question is too delicious just to stop cold turkey, and the tongue and brain will just have to be more alert from now on and be ready to halt the next shipment to the stomach the instant things seem hinky.
Cashmere, thanks for that nice comprehensive list of extremely rank and suspicious items. I wonder how Annalee's discussion with Fast Eddie is going.

Unrelatedly, we've (at work) just determined that the genesis of curling had to be alcohol-based.
I don't want to know the real story, so save your links for someone who's open to the "truth."

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
The only times in my life I've ever been hungover, vodka martinis were to blame. So even though I love them, I do not drink vodka martinis anymore.

Because books.
In high school a friend and I drank 3/4 of a bottle of Southern Comfort, chased with a fountain coke. My lips were numb before we were done. I can't even look at a bottle anymore.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I'm told the first recorded game involved angry monks. Seriously.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Amy is me. Only I did 14 shots of the stuff one night and cannot even say the name without throwing up in my mouth.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ugh. Beer. Apart from a good thick stout, preferably with ice cream in it, I just don't get it.
I wonder how Annalee's discussion with Fast Eddie is going.
I wonder how to ever find out. Hec!
What cocktails are tasty with gin in them? I should branch out from the gimlet some day.
Oh, let me be Perkins for a moment...what are people's weekend plans? I ask merely because I plan to leave the house for things not related to the ER, which makes the first weekend in weeks. I'm going to try and get my hair cut, see Colin, and do dinner. Complete crazy talk. And then go to the ER.

I've never really drank enough to have a hangover, but too much wine will give me a sinus headache the next day.
