Thread: Things that just aren't worth doing.

  1. #1

    Default Things that just aren't worth doing.

    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.

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

    I totally lied when I wrote this. Or I just don't remember writing this. Or doing this.

    Drinking 6 shots of Jack Daniels in a pint glass
    Was fun to start with but after I lost the feeling in my arm it wasn't

    (I'd drank 6 pints of cider before this)

    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.
