I mean I certainly believe a taste for quality liquor could be acquired. When I was 16 I hated the taste of beer and now it is my drink of choice. I just don't know how to unlock that part of my palette other than just drink a lot of it. My dad collects expensive bourbons and always shares them with me, but they always just taste like slightly sweeter whiskey to me regardless.
Some are sweeter. Some are smokier. Some are oaky or have notes of vanilla, caramel (three syllables) or whatever. Instead of sipping them the way paw serves it in a snifter, ask for a cube of ice or possibly a splash of water (preferably sparkling of course). A little water or ice has a way of waking up the flavor of a high quality whiskey and also take some of the burn out. If he says no, then tell him pour you something else.
Do you want to dance while also thinking about all the ways you've failed as a human?

voting straight liquor, aside from the occasional bourbon or scotch I just dont really enjoy it. would rather be sipping on an old fashioned, g + t or vodka soda any day.
It's correct that straight liquor made it this far. But for real, unless you are a teen/college kid trying to get fucked up as quickly as possible, a rich old dude with a top-shelf collection, or just an old-fashioned paper bag drunk, straight liquor is probably your last choice.
This is not true. I’m 42 years old, closer to poor than rich, who only drinks occasionally on weekends, not even every weekend and I’ll drink shots or sometimes just a glass of straight bourbon.
I'm 34 and have always just assumed that rational young adults eventually mature into the wisdom of "I really like the effectiveness of liquor but really hate that I want to throw up whenever I drink it straight. It's probably better to mix it with one of a few dozen options to make it taste better."
Both of these posts resonate with me a lot. I was voting straight liquor in like the first 3 rounds of the game. Then switched for a bit because at least they get you drunk.
Yes. But it may help some of the pandas on this thread recognize themselves. Speaking of pet or accidental names for that part /down there/ my oldest sister is a fairly large woman. While taking a bath with her then 2 year old he asked her what that was. She said vagina. He thought she said bagiant. He’s gay now.
Ever the intelligent one, she told him a year or so later to stop playing with his thing or it would fall off. “Is that what happened to yours?”
people on inforoo graduated from MD 20/20 to Riunite on Ice, so nice. They call it wine. They have a few different types - Lambrusco, Rosato, Muscato and "sangria." They are all pretty bogus but not as bad as formaldehyde wines. I was dating this girl a while back who told me she was really into wine. I asked her what type she liked the best, she said she was really into white zinfandel. I was like yeah, no. One of my kids was dating this girl who also said she was way into wines. He asked her what kind, and she said "muscato." Also yeah, no. Might as well get you some arbor mist!

I used to drink straight bourbon from time to time. Then at One Big Holiday 3 I somehow ended up in the friends and family section at the MMJ DJ after party set and those cats somehow got ahold of a bottle of Woodford Reserve and were passing it around. It came to me, and I said “hell yeah I will!” and took a nice tug off of the bottle. It was probably a lil too warm for my tumtum. The minute it hit my stomach I had to vomit. With no where to immediately go I tried to hold it in my mouth so I could get someplace else, but it was too much. I spread my legs and puked right in between them, then guarded the mess for a few minutes, dancing, before finally giving up and getting the fuck out of there. Please mix mine with a lil something. You will regret it if you don’t.
We're all a mess of paradoxes. Believing in things we know can't be true. We walk around carrying feelings too complicated and contradictory to express. But when it all becomes too big, and words aren't enough to help get it all out, there's always music.
Beer snobs get dunked on a lot, but I have a lot of fun going to a huge tap house with like 400 different beers on tap. I loved going to the Flying Saucer in Columbia and blindly choosing two or three mystery beers and then closing the night on my favorite stout. Never thought of it as snobbery, but could definitely see how a place like that could attract a bunch of pretentious douches.
Also when I was in college I was super skinny and always wanted a cute little pot belly beer gut. Now I have one and am most content with my body. I thank craft beer for that.
Don't get me wrong, if I see a cocktail I find interesting I'll order it. I usually just fall back on Four Roses and a big ice cube.
I think the most disappointing thing in the world is ordering an old fashioned and they give it to you over crushed ice. You should be allowed to shut those places down immediately
