Unless the place has some specialties, cocktails are rarely if ever on the menu.

We had prohibition, they didnt. Bathtub gin tastes like crap, the ingredients in a cocktail make it drinkable.

Cocktails have interesting tastes for sure. My personal favourite is Vodka, though. It has a very clean taste.

Rum & Coke for cocktails, Irish Mist for liquors, Lion for beer.

For beer, Samuel Adams was the best for me. German beer has too much of a clean taste, so I can't taste the hops, and Canadian beer tastes like moose urine.

In the 1920's in america it tasted like turpentine, things like orange juice, and tomato juice made it tasty. Alcohol is much better these days.

I mean, I don't mind if coffee tastes like orange or tomato, but if alcohol tastes like fruit juices, I wouldn't really want them.

American beer tastes like water. Beer from Ceylon is where it’s at.

Bit of a clean taste, for sure, but not too much to my taste buds.

Today's the day I just think a little bit more about myself while not going too much into the egoistic and narcissistic territory. :P

So... All these people going for work, and I'm pretty damn sure they are gonna have a lovely, lovely time at night.

On a side note, last Valentine's Day or so ago, there was a bouquet of flowers that were thrown into a trash bin. I'm seriously not sure what the actual hell happened, but... Can't be good, man. A perfectly good bouquet in a trash. As I like to say it, "Someone got kena dumped leh."

Man I sure wish I had a girlfriend this Valentine day. I had one last V day, but we broke up in june, and now I'm spending all my time getting thirsty for every girl at my job.

Gotta have a little bit of darkness within you just to survive. You gotta stoop low everyday it seems like. Stoop all the way down to the devil in these times. And then one day you look in the mirror and you realize that you ain't you anymore. You're just another monster, and thanks to your actions, someone else will eventually become as warped and twisted as you. Never forget that the best of us are just the best of a bad lot. Being at the top of a pile of feces doesn't make you anything but shit like the rest. Never forget that.

The fact that the handle was plastic while the 75cl bottle was glass should have been even more than a tell than it being $18 that this was going to be a truly terrible whiskey.

Canadian Mist...
I'll go for the 1L bottle of Evan Williams for $15 next time that stuff is drinkable from the bottle even if it stings a bit. This is like... No. I don't understand how I'm going to properly be able to medicate at this rate, this booze does not compel...
