I've never really drank enough to have a hangover, but too much wine will give me a sinus headache the next day.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Unrelatedly, we've (at work) just determined that the genesis of curling had to be alcohol-based.
Was there ever any doubt? I mean, "hey, let's play bocce! on ice! with frickin' BOULDERS!..."?

I'm told the first recorded game involved angry monks. Seriously.
That sounds alcohol-based to me.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
It's tequila for me. Mexican tequila from Mexico that was Not Good and had a worm that did me in. Now, I can't even hang.
Also?? Despite drinking copious amounts of them with juliana in SF, I *just* learned that red-headed sluts have Jaager in them! I had no idea! And I still like them!

I don't want to know the real story, so save your links for someone who's open to the "truth."
According to Wikipedia, curling has its origins in Scotland in the 1500s, and seems to have been a winter version of golf. It doesn't explicitly say alcohol was involved, but it doesn't say it wasn't...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Dark & Stormys!!
Mmmm. A current favorite of mine!
The fancy-people gin cocktails they make now have so much other stuff in them, the gin is fine with me, although I'd still always take a v&t over g&t.

Does Southern Comfort have a reason to exist aside from regrettable high school memories and, possibly, the invention of curling?

Now tagless for your comfort.
If it was Scotland, alcohol was involved.

My brother was bitten by an aardvark.
(technically, and anteater, but aardvark is close enough and more fun to type.)
I was off rum for a while after a run in with bad fish followed by rum and cokes, but over that now.

Because books.
I agree. Uh, with the stuff about SoCo.
I have very few opinions on aardvarks.
