Skol Vodka Is Nasty
And yet I'm drinking it because I don't care. Also, it was only $7. :+ My roommate wonders why I'm drinking so much (well, I'm sure he would be if he weren't busy playing Battlefield 2), because I haven't told anyone IRL. Bottoms up! :+

1. Are you mixing it?
Please tell me you're mixing it with something....

4. I've had pineapple soaking in it for a week.
Now seemed an appropriate time to break into it; it's good because I can't taste much of the vodka anymore...but when I can taste it...:puke:

The trick is not to breathe when it's in your mouth.

2. Blech
The new Icelandic vodka Reyka is pretty good. If you can't find that, Stoli is an okay choice.

7. Lose forty pounds
Then your $ to drunkenness ratio will be just as low with quality booze. :patriot:

9. Yeah, six foot even and 100 pounds...that's healthy.

I'm one of those few people for whom losing weight is unhealthy.

Edit: "whole" does not equal "whom" :+

3. You could mix it with cherry Kool-Aid. I did that once.
Back in the Pleistocene Era, when I was in college, I got really hammered on that mixture, possibly in response to one of my many emotional upheavals. I puked for a whole day afterwards. Except I think it was cheapo Phillips vodka. Bleh.

6. Hmm...you know, I hear cranberry juice masks the taste.
I haven't tried that yet...strangely. :shrug:

Yes, it's really good.
Also, screwdrivers are good (oj and vodka), but I can't drink those anymore because of this one weekend when I drank way too much. :hangover:


My drink of choice right now is vodka tonic with lime(always add lime, lime makes everything better.) :9

15. "One weekend when I drank way too much"
Yeah, that's why I don't drink White Russians anymore. :scared:

Weekend before I got the ball rolling on this month-long waste of time relationship, ironically. x(

What the fuck! This isn't like you lost your wife of 25 years! Why are you so glum?

19. I think it's because we'd been close friends for eight years before.
That's why it sucks so much. :(

20. It was a bad, bad weekend.
Ok, it was more like a bad night. The night before was fun, but the second night.


I drank a 5 Smirnoff Ice, half a bottle(it was one of the small ones, but still) of vodka and a vicodin. I got to know the toilet very well that night.

I don't remember much else. :scared:

Just to see....

11. Actually, I think a more apt name would be "Syk."
(Norwegian for "sick") :puke:

14. Do you know how glad Norwegians would be to get $7 vodka?
Edited on Sun Apr-30-06 10:47 PM by JVS
They tax the shit out of booze up there. In fact, it's not uncommon for people to spend weekends in Germany because they want to drink cheaply. Show some appreciation of what our land offers us, especially the cheap hooch.

29. Aww... someone needs a hug....
Zombie's sitting in his room,
Drinking his nasty stuff,
His roomate better watch out,
'Cause pretty soon he'll be runnin' round in the buff.




:hide: Sorry, couldn't resist.

I prefer to keep my clothes on, except when—well, now, I just prefer to keep my clothes on. :(
