Of course, it was not really favorable. It was on Crossing Jordan, and someone got loaded on Czeckerland absinthe and fell down some stairs and died.

Paraphrasing, "between the thujon and the high proof, you don't know what hits you."

We had an interesting article in one of the local campus rags here in Gainesville.

Seems the author , supposedly; gained his entire experience about absinthe from drinking an entire bottle of Serpis with a couple of friends and trashing out someone's house.

Rather than emailing the author and informing him what a stupid F' he is hammer.sml , I am actually going to try and get him to come to my little get together and see if I can enlighten the wayward youth. asta-emo.jpg

actually, both times i drank a bunch of serpis i got into HUGE arguments with people. usually i am a happy drunk. my wife swears that "that red xit" made me evil. she witnessed both arguments.....

the only other booze that would make me pissy was gin. the last time i drank more than couple martinis was about 5 years ago when i downed about 15 or 20 and started punching various inanimate objects that i did not own (including TV's and windows. for no apparent reason..... so i decided it was in my best interest to stop drinking gangs of martinis.....

Yes, anytime you drink more glasses than your IQ, you're in for trouble.

Next time, stop after 3.

DGLeadbetter

CelticGent

Of course.

You're always in blissful agreement with everyone on this forum, and *never* call anyone names?

Perhaps you should try drinking more before posting. Anything but Slerpis and gin.

[I won't - I'm even []i]more[/i] of a boring drone when I'm drunk]
CelticGent
right.

but these were arguments with people that *I Like*.
Justin
Not that they like you. You can't find any of *them*.
CelticGent
right. but i don't care.

Feh! You have arguments with Lammy.

But of course, you don't like her, you positively wub.gif her.
CelticGent
who wouldn't?
sixela
No argument from me there.
CelticGent

Another one of those not-so-secret plans to kill the penguin?
CelticGent
nah.

the serpis wan't as bad as some of the other crap that's out there.

i don't want you dead.

i just hope that the next time your wife takes you to the cleaners she asks for less starch.

Fat chance.

She orders the starch because she thinks I have no backbone.
Justin
Either that or she wants at least one thing in the house to be able to get stiff.

I've got two kids, and by the looks of them, they have my genes (and at least half my irritating habits).

The lady's not for correcting.

Real Life is not like a forum.

Mhhh -- perhaps I should commit my comments to paper and post them to her DG.gif.

believe it or not, most people in real life think i'm a nice guy..not an asshole at all.

or at least that's what they tell me if i beat them enough.

Hmmm...I'm a totally angry asshole in Real Life. Not much changes here.

Nope. Only one of them goes to school, and he is bullied just the same way I was.

Have you shown him how to jab bullies in the eye with a slide rule yet?

You owe it to your kids to teach them appropriate defenses.

He's not reached slide rule age yet.

Besides, I've learned the best survival tactic in his particular condition is to become known as a useful but slightly odd reclusive fool. The class mascot, in other words.

Retaliation doesn't help, at least as long as you keep sticking out like a sore thumb, and posing as just an average bloke makes you unhappy.
Justin
Yeah, the useful geek works for awhile. But always have the eye-poke in reserve.
musicgeek
Hey now...watch it with the geek comments. arme3.gif
Justin
Behind Sixer, I was like 2nd or 3rd highest in the geek test. I know from where I speak.
Bumpferret
Wow. Maybe high school was as
fun as I remember. "Ha! hah," Nelson.
musicgeek
I was the geek up until sophmore year in high school.

Then I became "that freaky guy who's fun to have at parties because he's always loaded and doing really stupid xit."

Now I am the geek again...life really does go in circles.
lambchop
I was very cool.
Off. Jack Batemaster
Me too. Too bad we ain't anymore.
Louched Liver
I was always tall.
Louched Liver
And snarky.
CelticGent
i was the short, chubby loser who was always trying to be funny and not getting laid.

as you can see i've mastered my game.
Larspeart
Do you all prefer your pork chops breaded, or naked? And what kind of marinate do you all use, if any?
Kirk
I throw the chops in a skillet , dump in a lot of wine, toss on several stalks of finnochio, simmer slow for an hour till the wine is gone , sift a little flour onto it and fry till golden brown.
Larspeart
Wow! That one sounded really darn good. A little time consuming (I'm a fan of Rachel Ray's 30-minute meals, heh) but worth the effort.

I've always marinated in wine and brown sugar, basted it in thyme, rosemary, garlic, and cajun spices, and then dusted it in flour/cornmeal and fried it.
CelticGent
i like my chops lammy.
Justin
This xit is making me hungry. My salad for lunch ain't gonna cut it.

And before anyone asks, the salad will not be tossed.

sancho

Larspeart
We should have a recipe section.
lambchop
I can't cook, so don't look at me.
Louched Liver
We already have too many dead sections.
Yeah, fuck your crotch too.
