Should I drink the absinthe or should I wait for the pot?
 
which wont be here for a few hours.

or should I have the awful vodka that is in my freezer instead, and the pot also.

note that the vodka realy is awful. it tastes like what I can only imagine gasoline does.

but I could mask that in juice. or something.

go with the absinthe, then you'll have a religious experience, and be the next hero of this generation.

sonicl 08.02.2007 04:16 AM

You could always approach life sober.

No, it's the old man - I don't do straightedge, but I don't do getting drunk or high as a lifestyle either.

absinthe doesnt give me distortions ( but then I've never had REALLY strong absinthe. ) It just makes me drunk in the body more than in the head. I guess it has always been more enjoyable with other people around though. :(

hehe its not a lifestyle. It used to be, but Im not so bad anymore. Tonight Im just so exhausted and I want to relax.

phoenix 08.02.2007 04:33 AM

he said 'after band practice, between 8 and 9'

its 7 32.

maybe I'll take a bath.

SynthethicalY 08.02.2007 04:39 AM

I want to try it, no not really alcohol or cigarrettes are not my thing. But I don't care if you drink or smoke, I am not those preachy types.

sonicl 08.02.2007 04:43 AM

I don't care if anyone drinks or smokes either, but I used to know people who thought that getting drunk or high was an essential part of any evening out, and they weren't good people to go out with regularly.

Spirits are to get drunk. Fuck that. I drink for taste.

I'd rather drink with people at home than when out. Cos.. I'm a nusence in public when Im drunk.

really? I mean... I prefer the taste of certain spirits far more than say beer or white wines. Red wines however... a nice merlot yummy. Or good cab sav..

spirits wise I like them white not brown. you know... gin.. vodka.. white rum.. tequila but only at the start of the night. cant finish on it. or I'd die in my own puke.

oh but jagermeister is brown.. I dunno. I dont really like the taste of jager but its just that it makes me get crazy. I think all the times I've been drunk on that I made out with my old housemate.


when out I order:

gin and cranberry (80% of the time)
gin and tonic
vodka and cranberry(order second when out because I can stand bad gin before I can stand bad vodka)
tequila and red grapefuit over ice with a few broken mint leaves.. ( no idea if its a drink.. I chose my ingredients one night when they didnt have what I wanted, and it turned out okay. so to me its a polar panda.)
shots of jagermeister, or a jagerbomb(though this is a rare thing for me to have when out because they are ridiculously priced)
shots of charteuse


I cant think of anything else...

Too much absinthe will make you go^

phoenix 08.02.2007 05:10 AM

I'm probably an alcoholic, because I love talking about good spirits, and getting drunk on them with good friends.

Dress in tailored clothes and become a lawyer? Thats way more terrifying..

sonicl 08.02.2007 05:15 AM

Have a glass of Chianti and a nice piece of cheese.

 

phoenix 08.02.2007 05:17 AM

I love nice cheese.

but it has animal guts. :(

sonicl 08.02.2007 05:20 AM

Not if you buy cheese made with vegetarian rennet.

Washing Machine 08.02.2007 05:21 AM

I really dont get it, ive drunk tonnes of absinthe, some really fucking strong stuff from greece too and it doenst do anything. It has this reputation as this hardcore drink but I've never felt it. On the otherhand 3 triples of Whiskey and im done for. Whiskey has a far worse effect on me.

there arent many options though. I buy vegetarian cheese. But you cant get good parmesan, or brie, without animal rennett. Not where I am at least.

I just try to not eat a lot of it.

I find absinthe really sedative.. and quite different from regular alcohol?

Washing Machine 08.02.2007 07:19 AM

ive never noticed a difference. When I used to go out with my friends, we would always have a few shots of absinthe before we went out.

I guess it depends on the person. I know a guy who can drink shit loads of beer and ale and it not even touch the sides, one or two pints of cider and all hell breaks loose.

phoenix 08.02.2007 07:20 AM

I didnt drink. I waited for the pot. heh.

Washing Machine 08.02.2007 07:26 AM

was the pot good?

atsonicpark 08.02.2007 07:31 AM

fuck it. drink everclear instead!!!!! straight!!!!!!!!! .... no, i dunno. alcohol is silly . it's such a waste of time and you feel like shit the next day. i'll just drink robo. cheap ($6), tastier than alcohol (except kaluha or boone's farm, but you can't get drunk off of it), you TRIP (way better buzz, and you can remember it!), safer, etc... robo!!! honestly, we should all LIVE robo'd. you have no desire to have sex, no desire to eat, and you don't have to travel because you can just travel in your mind. of course, i'm exaggerating, but damn. robo!!!!!!!!!!!

phoenix 08.02.2007 07:47 AM

wtf is robo?

pot is nice not the best tho. and was on the expensive side.

LOL, this is hardcore.

atsonicpark 08.02.2007 07:59 AM

robo is slang for cough syrup where the only ingredient is dextromethorphan (don't get any cough syrup with ANY OTHER ingredients but that one).

people say it's a white trash drug, but i think they're thinking of meth. robo is like acid... you trip... the cough syrup also has alcohol in it, though, so you get kinda drunk... you feel like you're floating in the clouds.. it's amazing. the only problem is there's a 50 trip limit. the magic goes away more and more every year. it's still fun though. i used to drink and was like "hmph." i smoked weed and thought it was okay. then, i robo'd and everything was okay. anyone that has followed my reccomendations and went down the robo path has found it to be quite pleasant. robo!!! look it up on the net. just type in "robo tripping".

atsonicpark 08.02.2007 08:00 AM

oh, and i'd like to add that i rarely drink and i never smoke weed now. though i do enjoy codeine if i can get it. codeine and robo are the only things i do.

floatingslowly 08.02.2007 08:45 AM

I mainline peanutbutter.

mmmm......anoxia.

Absinthe Goblin 08.02.2007 11:06 AM

Il y a beaucoup de similarités entre l'haut des deux. Le thujone dans l'armoise d'absinthe et le tetrahydrocannabinol dans la marijuana effets remarquablement des similaires sur la plupart des gens.

Quote:

Movie hunk Johnny Depp will buy marijuana for his kids when they start showing an interest in the drug because he fears street dealers will cheat them. The liberally-minded actor - and father to Lily-rose, four, and baby Jack - is convinced the gesture will help keep his children away from more dangerous drugs. Depp, married to French actress Vanessa Paradis, says, "Out on the street, you never know what you're getting and suddenly two days later, you're beating yourself in the head with a tennis racket, wearing a towel and quoting Poe. You don't want that for your kid."
