1. Your favourite and/or most often drunk (as is applicable):
Varies by the season. It's about to be eggnog. I mean, I'm about to spend two months completely shitfaced on eggnog. Been beer, wine, and martinis of late, though.
2. The one thing you cannot ever drink again after having a terrible experience with it
Captain fucking Morgan. Fuck that asshole.
3. If you were a bartender your specialty would be...
It was White Russians and root beer shots. My root beer shots were fucking brutal.
4. Your top 5 (or 10, if you're real keen) best ballsy rockin bar fightin boozed up tits out RAWK songs to drink to (note: if you are a maudlin drunk you may list appropriate blues songs)
Mr. Brownstone. No time for a complete list.
5. Answer me this wise sages of the drinking circle...what is about tequila that makes all who drink it turn into skanked out ruins doing stupid things they don't do when drunk on other stuff, hmm?
It's the black-outs. Nothing makes you black out like that and lose control. We were going through a handle of tequila during the week and up to two on the weekends at my house all summer...insanity.

What I really don't understand is why people put sugar in their tea. Gagh. Because unsweetened tea tastes like boot sweat? |

Unsweetened tea is almost as gross as black coffee.

What kind of tea are you talking about? I drink green tea pretty much every day, unsweetened. That stuff is great. English tea is okay, but on the rare occassion I drink it, I usually throw some sugar in there. Black tea or orange pekoe I usually drink unsweetened, but not as a rule or anything.

Black is the only way to go. Why would anybody want to ruin a perfectly good cup of coffee with cream and sugar and (gasp!) flavorings?
Indeed !!
Although the occasional Cappucino made from a good coffee machine
is not to be dismissed too easily ... !!

Oh, Luke's post just reminded me that I forgot to do Layla’s questionnaire.
1. Your favourite and/or most often drunk (as is applicable):
I’m a beer girl – more specifically, a Keith’s girl. Or Sleeman’s, if no Keith’s is available. But I’ll drink pretty much any beer in a pinch. And I love white wine, but tend to only drink it at home.
But like Luke said, a lot of it varies by the season too. I drink pretty much nothing but ice-cold beer in the summer when it’s boiling hot outside… but now that we’re coming up on Christmas, I’ll be drinking a lot more Bailey’s and eggnog and mudslides.
2. The one thing you cannot ever drink again after having a terrible experience with it
Two things. 1 - Strip and Go Naked. 2 - white rum.
3. If you were a bartender your specialty would be...
I apparently made outstanding Singapore Slings as a bartender, even though I hated them myself.
4. Your top 5 (or 10, if you're real keen) best ballsy rockin bar fightin boozed up tits out RAWK songs to drink to (note: if you are a maudlin drunk you may list appropriate blues songs)
I don’t have the energy for this right now, but I put a list of five on the Top 10 board last week sometime. Not saying they’d be my top 5 of all time, but they’re 5 that make me want to drink whiskey and then break a bottle over someone’s head.
5. Answer me this wise sages of the drinking circle...what is about tequila that makes all who drink it turn into skanked out ruins doing stupid things they don't do when drunk on other stuff, hmm?
I’ve actually never done anything while drunk on tequila that I haven’t done drunk on gin. Except that I always seem to want to drink tequila when I’m already completely trashed, and that’s never good.

You should ask the Mescal gods ...
Or maybe you just can't stomach lemon !

Hm. That reminds me how much fun the survey board at RS was, no matter how big a dork I felt for answering them.
1. Your favourite and/or most often drunk (as is applicable):
I'll drink nearly anything (no jager unless it's in a red-headed slut) but probably my old stand-by is rum and coke. summer or winter. or gin greyhounds. gin/tonic. gin martini. gin period.
2. The one thing you cannot ever drink again after having a terrible experience with it
Tequila. McCormick vodka.
3. If you were a bartender your specialty would be...
I've been perfecting my martini this year, but I would rather die than be a bartendress in a martini bar. No vodka martinis either. Gin all the way.
My drinks are no nonsense. Stiff but not gag-me stiff. I love making drinks for people.
4. Your top 5 (or 10, if you're real keen) best ballsy rockin bar fightin boozed up tits out RAWK songs to drink to (note: if you are a maudlin drunk you may list appropriate blues songs)
Powernoise does it to me. Not much else really. And it can't be classified as rawk either. I suck.
5. Answer me this wise sages of the drinking circle...what is about tequila that makes all who drink it turn into skanked out ruins doing stupid things they don't do when drunk on other stuff, hmm?
I have friends who get that way on both gin and whiskey, although tequila seems to be the most universal rage/slut inducing beverage. I have no good theories on why certain liquor affects us that way. Maybe it triggers adrenaline and hormones to be released very suddenly instead of more slowly. I am talking out my ass. No idea.

I have friends who get that way on both gin and whiskey When I was in college, gin was nearly universally referred to as 'the panty remover'. Crass, yes, but also sorta true. I saw way more people slut out on gin than on anything else. Most people who drank too much tequila were too busy falling down and/or throwing up to be slutty. |

1. Your favourite and/or most often drunk (as is applicable):
beer - Bud Lite (most often drank--definately not favorite though)
wine - Gewurztraminer
other - Vodka Tonic, Jagermeister
2. The one thing you cannot ever drink again after having a terrible experience with it
Jack Daniels. Last time I drank that was the night I couldn't find my feet.
3. If you were a bartender your specialty would be...
I'd be a shitty bartender. All I'd make for anyone would be vodka tonics and Jager & Cherry Coke.
4. Your top 5 (or 10, if you're real keen) best ballsy rockin bar fightin boozed up tits out RAWK songs to drink to (note: if you are a maudlin drunk you may list appropriate blues songs)
I actually prefer drunken singalongs. The best are "Real Men" by Joe Jackson, and just about anything by the Pogues.
5. Answer me this wise sages of the drinking circle...what is about tequila that makes all who drink it turn into skanked out ruins doing stupid things they don't do when drunk on other stuff, hmm?
Um...I think tequila is just an excuse to be a skank.

"Gin'll make you sin." That's so true.
Gin- Makes you horny
Whiskey- Makes you violent
Tequila- Makes you black-out, go insane
Jager- Makes you horny, violent, black out, go insane
Vodka, Brandy, Cognac, etc., just make you drunk.

1. Your favourite and/or most often drunk (as is applicable):
Beer (Bud Light)
Rum and Coke
2. The one thing you cannot ever drink again after having a terrible experience with it
Peppermint Schnapps...ick. I drank so much when I was 16 I must have vomited a dozen times. Then the morning after hangover...eww. The thought of peppermint schnapps makes my stomach roll.
3. If you were a bartender your specialty would be...
151 Baccardi and coke
4. Your top 5 (or 10, if you're real keen) best ballsy rockin bar fightin boozed up tits out RAWK songs to drink to (note: if you are a maudlin drunk you may list appropriate blues songs)
I dance like a fool to Madonna music when I get drunk. Stragger and vomit all over the dancefloors at clubs. A total mockery and fool of myself.
5. Answer me this wise sages of the drinking circle...what is about tequila that makes all who drink it turn into skanked out ruins doing stupid things they don't do when drunk on other stuff, hmm?
Actually I'm pretty tame on tequila. Mescal though...eat the worm and get really sloshed.

Everything makes me horny. I don't get violent, insane, and I can always find my feet. Except if I toke after drinking, and then I black out.
