An empty house, a good drink, and netflix is the best thing ever. You're all missing out.

Anyway, I forgot to mention wine. I drink a lot of it, all local and usually white, but I'm not picky. Traminette is by far my favorite.


If I drink it's only because it's a social occasion and wine of some sort is offered to me. Otherwise, I refrain from drinking out of fear that I'll do something stupid. My family's not known for taking liquor very well.

I was raised that drinking is a social experience. Not to say that there is anything wrong with those who feel differently, but for me half the enjoyment of drinking is the social part.

I dispise the taste of all fermented beverages I have been exposed to, with apple cider being the only one not much bad.

After I had instant hangover from very cheap wine, I decided that any pleasure alcohol would give me would not excuse that sensation in the following day. I'd rather get it with greasy food, much more delicious.

No problem with those choosing to drink though. :V

Well that's what cheap wine will do. But you know you don't have to get drunk to drink, right? So, no hangover.

Me too.

When I do drink, which these days is actually quite rare, I enjoy champagne and gin mostly.

Why people are turning those little awesome yummy potatoes into alcohol when they can be cooked to make potato in natura-lovers like me joyful? :c

Some people just want to be boozed up more than they want a baked potato.

Not really. Think of it as watered down ethanol, it doesn't have a flavour but it has a very strong taste.
Now whiskey and bourbon you can cook with.
