I prefer Bourbon over Scotch and some Irish. Middleton and Tullamore being the exceptions. And the only Bourbons I like are Makers Mark, Woodford Reserve and Knob Creek.
-
I prefer Woodford Reserve to Maker's Mark.
I've become a fan of George DIckel whisky since visiiting the distillery in TN.
Irish Whiskey is generally my drink of choice. I'm partial to Powers if I'm not looking to shell out too much money. They sell Middleton a couple of blocks away, which I find extremely tempting though paying so much for a bottle of whiskey doesn't seem to be in the cards right now. If I could, I'd never drink anything else (except a good dark beer).
I've tried a bunch of different kinds of Scotch, but haven't tasted one I'd want to drink on a regular basis.
-
Doesn't anybody drink to get fucked up? Or is everything about taste nowadays?
-
It starts out as taste, getting fucked up usually comes along about two hours in.
I prefer scotch over bourbon, but that's mostly because I got wasted on bourbon too much at school.
-
I had decided in my last year at university to start at the low end of the whiskey spectrum and to work my way up to the real treats. Well let's just say there's an ever-growing morass of low-end stuff. I never got past the $12-13 per bottle mark, although I was drinking hard for most of my senior year. So speaking as one of countless authorities on the low low end, shit bourbon is considerably more palatable than shit scotch.
-
And dat's da fact, Jack.

Getting fucked up can be a happy by-product of enjoying however many drinks, but it's not the main goal. Most times when I drink, I wouldn't say I get fucked up. My regular drinks are beer or red wine (or both), so when I drink whisky/whiskey or tequila, it's usually just a glass/shot or two, just because I enjoy it. I'm also sort of a lightweight when it comes to spirits, at least compared to how much beer or wine I can handle. I can easily put back 20 beers without being drunk, but 3 or 4 decent glasses of Scotch and I'm sloppy.

Maker's is still the king. One night I showed up to a house party with a fifth of Maker's, I can't remember what happened after but I'm sure it was a good time.
-
Maker's what??? I drink box wine and 40s, nigger.
-
ugh

What volume is a fifth?
Remember, before you ridicule me, I was raised metric.
-
I think it's half a fathom...
-
Mosh, a fifth is just over 17 jiggers.

Before you ridicule me, remember that I was raised by an owner of a liquor store.
American measurements are usually sold as
Half-gallons/Handles: 1,750ml
Liters: (straight forward)
Fifths (Fifth of a Gallon): 750ml
Pints: 375ml (and this doesn't actually equate with how much a pint is but I'm not sure this is how it's sold).
Going smaller than that, who knows? Who buys less than 375ml at a time?
-
I'll still drink a pint of gin and walk into a show from time to time. Pints are the perfect serving size for concert going.
-
Gimme rum and I'll be happy.
-
"Rum and robo with his mind on his money and his money on his mind..."
-
Eh, I've gotten in trouble when I've mixed DXM and alcohol. I tend to keep them separate adventures.
-
Rum and I don't mix well. Kind of a shame considering where I live.
-
Tequila is my personal nemesis. Instant retch.
-
I didn't really appreciate tequila, specifically good tequila, till I stayed in a hotel in Mexico with a dedicated tequila bar.
-
Tequila is my personal savior. Truly a creation of los dioses en el Cielo.
There's a lot of stuff I can't stand (all gin, most scotch, any flavored anything - especially vodka), but I can literally drink tequila from bottom of the barrel to top shelf and feel great all night and in the next morning as well. I've never really understood it, especially when so many people hate the stuff.
-
Nah. Patron Silver is my goto.
-
Stolichnaya!
-
White rum is a great drink... standard dark rums are normally awful but lately I've been getting fed Indian rum and I don't mind it!
-
-
Indian rum, eh? Is that Old Monk? I found most Indian booze to be dreadful, although I didn't mind a bit of Goan port.
As for tequila, I'm OK with it although I will almost never choose it on my own.
The worst possible thing to put in front of me is Southern Comfort. Hoo boy, did I ever have a terrible early drinking experience with that crap!
-
MD 20/20. Ghetto Kool-Aid.
-
Kingfisher isnt a bad beer
-
I don't want to sound like a douche or nothin but I'm kind of a sucker for Campari. It makes me feel like I live by the sea and I own a yacht. Not really a hard drinking drink though. For that my standard go to is probably JD. I'm just too perpetually broke to enjoy the finer things.
-
I'm just to perpetually broke to enjoy the finer things.
I'm telling you, the way to go is 40s, box wine, MD 20/20, and Five O' Clock vodka.
-
40s are ok depending on what it's a 40 of. I was really anti-40 for a while because of all the "Boomerang" and "Tornado" and other shitty raspberry-and-lime-flavored beers and whatnot that came in 40 form and were inevitably the only things left to drink at the end of a house party. Box wine I actually usually enjoy for the memories. Malt liquor is on my blacklist because hell I won't remember the night. Not the biggest fan of vodka either for pure taste reasons. Cheap bourbon is infinitely smoother than cheap vodka.
-
I always enjoyed Milwaukees Best or Natural Ice for 40s. Box wine is AWESOME. Perma drunk for days if I have no tolerance. MD is actually pretty fucking shitty, but sometimes you just gotta get drunk. And bottom of the barrel vodka tastes like paint thinner. I'm sure some of you remember the video I posted of me almost puking up Five O' Clock vodka.
-
I just saw that the other day for the first time. And then I watched the other 4. Dylan in moving pictures. What a world. You look like John Belushi in the hair video.

People keep making comparisons, Jack Black, Ethan Suplee, now fucking John Belushi.....and I'm not super offended cuz they aren't hideous but I'm not happy about the comparisons either. Eh. The worst part is that I DON'T LOOK LIKE ANY OF THEM. I would agree if I did but I don't.
-
basically, you look like you should get your shit together. Ten years and you still haven't managed it

*sigh*
I know.
-
We wouldn't tell you if we didn't care.
Hey. remember when you were gonna off yourself? LOL And we all got all hearts and flowery on you? LOL And begged you to get help and not do it? LOL And everyone was giving you their phone numbers and I even offered to come up there and take you anywhere you wanted to go? Man we had a good laugh about that last summer when we were all getting faced at the river... LOL
Good times. Love you man.
LOL.
-
ROFLMAO
Suicide is hilarious!
-
I remember when I went to go see Life Aquatic and through out the whole move Bill Murrary drank Campari on ice, after the movie I went to the bar to have one and it was awful... until I requested a splash of orange juice in it. It was very tasty then. Which brings me to my point. Tequila is good, but only with a splash of orange juice.
-
Dude, Campari is the shit. You can't sully it up with orange juice. That's like adding rootbeer to Fernet.
-
Tequila is also good when you're 17, bored as fuck in art class, and drinking it from a Wendy's cup while the teacher is sitting just 20 feet away at her desk.

I remember sneaking coffee brandy on a fieldtrip-bound bus.
-
I remember drinking four belts of Evan Williams a few minutes ago.
Could it be time for number 5 so soon?
-
I used to get drunk working as a lift-op at a ski field in lake Tahoe. Next time you see a liftie note that he's not only blitzed, but probably smashed to boot.
-
I have a litre of Smirnoff I'm going to massacre tonight
-
So I'll be seeing you online in about 4 hours then?
-
yeah, posting gibberish
-
Makers Mark is good for sipping straight out of the bottle.
-

This takes me back to rolling joints behind a book in the back of class...

Haha nice.
I guess Sasha hasn't seen this thread yet - she's the one who brought the tequila into class in the Wendy's cup. God, I loved that art class. We fucked around basically every day. I brought in an Insane Clown Posse cd once on bring-your-own-music day or something. Sasha - remember the itching power? And the water guns? Hahaha.

Waking up with a blinding hangover next to both of krsna's trannies tomorrow morning: Priceless.
-
Take pictures please!
-
There weren't even any trannies
this morning when I awoke. Just a medium hangover and a half a can of Spam. I live like hobo.
EDIT:striking
-
Spam is worse than tranny sex. Actually spam is a billion times worse.
-
Hangovers make beggars of us all.
-
Spam is worse than tranny sex. Actually spam is a billion times worse.
Do you speak from experience? If so, I'm quite interested in knowing more about this experience.
-
I don't speak from experince. However I'd rather have tranny sex than eat spam any day of the week.
-
If you had to have tranny sex, who would you chose as your tranny? I mean imagine you can give a dick to and get fucked by any other chick in the world. Who would it be?
-
I think you should make that a thread in sex.
Then I will answer. haha
-
Done.
-
I had some Maker's Mark for the first time last night. (On the rocks) It's not nearly as bad as I was anticipating.
-
Heck yeah. Even bad bourbon is kind of ok, and I'd rank Makers somewhere above bad.
-
The guy who introduced me to whisky (Scotch, originally) took great offense to me liking to drink it neat, as opposed to on the rocks, which is how he drank it. He thought that somehow I was trying to one-up him as more of a manly man or something. I tried to explain that it was just a preference, and had nothing to do with penis size, to little avail.
So anyway, krsna, how does it feel to have a small penis?
-
I was drink Islay malt at a friends house and he explained about putting a dash of water in as a "key" to unlocking the flavor. We're talking about 3-5 drops. That was really interesting
-
Yeah, I've always heard that and have never been able to taste much of a difference, so I rarely bother.
-
If I'm drinking out of the bottle then it's fine as it is. Otherwise good scotch benefits from a splash of water, but maybe that's because I like to gulp it down.
-
right. I totally went along with it because
a) He clearly knew more about whisky than I do
b) He was supplying the scotch
-
Makers Mark is bourbon.
STOP POLLUTING THIS THREAD WITH YOUR EWWW NASTY SCOTCH TALK!!!
Thank you.
-
Yes. Bourbon is such the money. I totally intend to gain my final cirrhosis from bourbon.
