Ok; after partaking some Deva 45 from Spain with some friends, I've went all out and spent literally hours lurking and researching to the point my friends are a little worried. I have to say (being a generally Scotch man), this a great blast--where can you enjoy history and still get blasted?

My first purchase is now a bottle of NO and a bottle of White Fairy, being that they appear to be very different in many ways. A colleague is purchasing a couple of bottles this week as well for our dinner party next week (He erroneously thinks the THUJONE!!!-this stuff has nothing to do w/the buzz from absinthe, NOTHING!!!!-this stuff has nothing to do w/the buzz from absinthe, NOTHING! content is more important to visit the Green Fairy--although I've literally sent him half a dozen sources describing his error).

I apologize for the long message in advance. Thanks to Oxygenee for his amazing insight and I'm buying that foilage grille from Kirk as soon as I can.

Who the fuck is Badd Backs?

Foliage.

Oh, dear.

How about making sense of that last sentence in the first paragraph? You might get more amiable responses.

Not to mention that this isn't really an Absinthe forum anymore. Apparently, this is now a beer drinking forum.

Spelling nazis lurk here as well, good grief.

Greeneyes--I generally drink Scotch. That sentence was poorly crafted. Sorry.

What do you think of those two choices as a first purchase?

Do you have any beer drinking questions?

Lagns to the left of you, lagns to the right of you.
There is no escape.

Foilage is a pet peeve of mine.

Why don't you read the fucking FAQs first and do some lurking. We don't like being asked dumass questions.

Do you have a name for your pet? Or do you just call him peeve?

Oh, and

I call him "Big Ernie."

Foilage is a well respected theater term. Bring in the foilage drop.

What Burnt and Burny said.

Man you need to get a friend in a bad way. If you would have bothered to read my post, you would have recognized that I have done that and way more. My question dealt with those two particular bottles and whether they were different enough for a dinner party.

If you would bother to



You would find that there are many threads here that we discuss both of those Absinthes. Have you ever heard of a forum "Search" function?

Yes, and none of those searches produced a discussion comparing those two. Yes, I get some discussion of each in a vacuum, but that is now what I'm looking for. Moreover, since I've never had a drink of either, I thought I could rely on some of you that had. Forgive the hell out of me.

Oh, and that's pretty cute (adding stuff to my sig)--you must feel really cool.

I'm curious, What did you learn by "Searching" this forum?

If you don't like what we do here in our forum, why don't you go back to wherever the fuck you came from?

i like to lay pipe

Here we go with the whining...

In short, it seems a lot of people love NO, some think it is too expensive, some appear to hate it, perhaps to be a rebel, I'm not sure. It is clear that it as well as its sister are in a class by themselves, unless you can afford vintage. The White Fairy discussion didn't seem to be very substantive. I'll move along. I have to get some work done. Thanks for nothing.

don't go so fast, mrs. batemaster.

can i have a throw?

Um, have you lurked here much?
It seems like maybe not so much.
You wouldn't be having such a snit, for one thing.

You'd think Badd Backs would know how this place works by now?

old-timers disease.

I can seldom explain his behavior.
I've given up trying.
I throw my hands up.

are you waving them like you just don't care?

Well Old man
you have good taste in grilles and absinthe.
Don't mind the dogs, they don't bite.
Let us know what your friend thinks of the N.O. compared to his toojone bomb.

After that feeding frenzy, I kinda have a feeling the Old Cunt ain't comin' back.

um, you came back.

Hey that reminds me...GO AWAY!

I can't. I'm doing beer research.

The old man told me to go mow the lawn.

I told him to go fuck himself.

did he let you watch, or did you have to mow the lawn first?

My dog a bitch and will bite the shit outta you. I keeps the shits tied to my can to guard my Grilles and my Deva.

Out!

if you REALLY did, you woudl see, IN CLEAR BOLD LETTERS ON THE SITE FAQ, the we require a nice, pleasant, happily worded introduction post. Also, part of the post should include some measure of ass-kissing.

NO 1st post shoudl be in this section, or any other then the public forum.


So...


, asshole.

old-timers are diseased.

bear research?


Talk to CG.

Hey Lars!

You forgot to tell him how much we like proper spelling.

my fingers have the HARDEST time understanding that the 'l' goes before the 'd' in those words (and should). Plus, I got a new computer at work, and the keyboard sucks.

I think AZ jizzed in it or something.

Yeah, Calmthefuckdown™, Lars.
These matters have been attended to properly.

Burnt Beer?

Or, as translated from English to Japanese to English:

My can is empty.

The real funny thing is, this dumass keeps viewing this thread - only as a "Guest."

Pussy.
