No matter how irresistible the temptation is, I promise you drinking several shots of absinthe, no matter how high the proof, just doesn't live up to the legendary standards you've all heard. Absinthe is a legend. Only if you actually move to the Czech Republic will you see the chemicals of your dreams. Otherwise, don't waste your money.
Any other scam-type things you would recommend others to hold onto their wallets?
Not really. I don't get all excited over material objects, or alcohol, for that matter. If I have the sufficient money to get something that looks good, I'll get it, but I don't get interested in anything by word of mouth or advertising.
Absinthe belongs in Cz, yes. Well, unless you bring some real bottles home, and light it on fire. :tonberry:
I just tried lighting a shot on fire as i took it jsut now. It didn't really do much for me.
Mexican tequila. [img]http://home.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/heart.gif[/img] I don't drink very often, but if I do aaaaawe that's all I need, Tequila, lemon and salt. Yum. :)
One Whiskey On The Rocks without ice, please.

I've seen the effects of absinthe for myself. Trust me, it's worth doing.

I didn't actually intend for this to be about booze. What about other things? For example, I am beginning to think the country of New Zealand is one big scam.
Any "instant exercise" machine you see on infomercials, minus the Bowflex. I've seen aquaintences buy the most ridiculous things, like sweat-inducing vibrating belts that are supposed to give you 6-packs. Have any of them worked for them? Nope, they're still chubby with low self-esteem, and down a few hundred bucks. This also applies towards miracle diet pills/patches. The only ones that are actually effective are derivatives of speed and f*** up your heart and blood pressure (they're stimulants).
Just go to the gym.
Minus the Bowflex? Does that thing actually work?
The Bowflex is just a condensed weight-training station. You have to actually exercise to use it.
I have a bottle of poteen. It's nice.Quote:

oh, and don't ever send off and pay for one of those "smoke pot get paid" medical experiments books. :D
something not worth doing?
try getting out of the shower after realizing you've been 30 minutes in there.
or getting out of bed after a great drinking night.
Making a manticore with your own head.
