Eyes on Alcoholics Anonymous

[Shiny]

I'm not crazy about alcohol and not keen on getting drunk, so I don't get drunk. When it's free and I feel like it, I'll have red wine or vodka with some fruity juice.

It is well known that I do not like beer. Whoever invented that, I want to punch them in their throat (politely).

I like beer, but I'm really picky, preferring to avoid anything that tastes like its close to water, taste like fruit, or tastes like it hasn't been properly removed from the hops that made it. I prefer dark beers mostly in that department.

My alcohol of choice though, is vodka and red wines. I also enjoy whiskey. I hate Jager and Rum, and I still feel that alcohol should not be naturally sweet. Its fine when its mixed with something that is sweet but not when its on its own. Yuck...

When I was a server, I made it a kind of odd tradition to have a Screwdriver after work, cause its how I usually felt after a long day of dealing with the human race.

Urgh, beer is the most foul of alcoholic drinks. :P I am more a southern comfort, morgan's spiced and bacardi kind of person. :3

Sailor Jerry's or Captain Morgan's rum. I also drink a lot of Jack Daniels too. If I'm feeling like it I'll shoot tequila. When it comes to beer I'll take a good German brew. I can't stand American pisswater anymore.

I'm Irish so as you can imagine, I love booze No really this is one stereotype that at least of me is true. Used to drink beer a lot but recently I've switched to vodka because all the additives & chemicals in the beer wasn't agreeing with my stomach Although the vodka has turned me into a drunken disaster area when I drink, not in the falling down getting sick kind of disaster area but the likely to partake in "devilment" kind

Southern Comfort with lemonade or nothing at all, thanks.

But cheap liquor is fine?

I seriously don't get this sentiment.

my last couple of wonderful nights have gone like this:

long island iced tea -> blue moon -> raspberry schnapps + raspberry vodka

raspberry schnapps + vanilla vodka -> boulevard -> blueberry pancake batter shot -> some sort of cider

Not enjoying the taste of beer or anything beer-like (ales, etc.) makes everything make sense. I genuinely do not like beer at all. Not even if I have drunk myself into a stupor, will I touch the stuff. :3
Also SoCo is hardly cheap. :3 If I had said vodka, then maybe I would have understood that sentiment, but most vodka also tastes disgusting and I avoid drinking it if I can.

rubah's post reminded me that if I can, I will go for some cocktails. Best of drinks, can't go wrong with a cocktail. xD

SoCo is like $20 for a handle, that's pretty cheap. And vodka typically has a neutral flavor, it should be the most palatable liquor there is.

[Shauna]

When I buy a bottle of SoCo I'm splashing out. It's like £20 for 700ml. I can get cheaper litre bottles of alcohol, there are less expensive ways to drink liquor. :P I have been told that good vodka doesn't taste of much. :3 Considering that I find £20 expensive (Living, y u no cheap?!), you can probably imagine the cheaper stuff that I inevitably end up drinking is probably 90% paint thinner and doesn't taste much better than that.

It is my only regret about disliking the taste of beer and cider, I will inevitably spend more money than people who do.

They are blue, aren't they? And you're white.

That's true; however, the study is still stupid.

I pretty much only drink beer, as in, lager. I once got totally smashed on Whiskey when I was younger and now I can't really drink it unless it's just one glass every now and then.

I usually buy a couple of beers when I'm watching sport, and I don't get drunk as much as I used to either. Other than that I literally take no other drug apart from my Vitamin C in the mornings. Life is grand.

What are you comparing the price of SoCo to in order to say it's cheap? How much does alcohol cost where you live? =o

[Shlup]

If I can't get inebriated on less than $5 it ain't worth it.
