"I'm gonna tinker with myself 'til I say only promises" (Thread of Strong Drink)

[Wally]

I think it's one of those things that causes all our hearts to flutter with anticipation. Kinda of the other side of the coin to Epcot's return.

[coldforge]

Blucas, you know as well I as I do that if TSKS were going to break edge, there'd be a 4-month period of public agonizing about it before he actually took a sip. You'd have forewarning.

[Andrew_TSKS]

It's never going to happen, if for no other reason than my doctor expressly prohibits me from ever starting to drink.

[Greg Nog]

Will it interact poorly with your heart medication?

[Andrew_TSKS]

I don't know if it's that or that it will just work against it. Last time I saw him, though, he definitely asked if I was drinking, and when I told him I still wasn't, said "Well for god's sake don't start." So yeah.

Alcohol shouldn't interact with most beta-blockers (I take one to slow my small-animal-like heart rate, even though my blood pressure is good, and I do fine drinking, nor have I been told not to), but I think alcohol is not good for high blood pressure. It's why the whole alcohol/red wine is good for the heart thing is in a kind of sort of depends on what's going on kind of way.

i went with "boont amber ale" and also some peanut butter cookies. good choices all around.

[graham]

I bought a 12-pack of PBR and turned "Bad Boys 2" into a drinking game.  Fuck all yall.

Whatever dude, I was there.

But I wasn't drinking, so yeah, I guess "fuck all yall" does apply to me as well.

I did mean "fuck all yall" in the endearing sense.

That Oak Aged Yeti Stout you've been going on about, do I want it refrigerated or warmer than that?

deserves to quoted.

[G.C.R]

It is beautiful. hey though, what is this thread title a reference to?

[girl]

Achewood

also, I do require an answer to this:

That Oak Aged Yeti Stout you've been going on about, do I want it refrigerated or warmer than that?

[Greg Nog]

On a hot day, a cold stout, but I think it would be best on a brisk fall day, slightly warm.

[girl]

So you're saying I should wait to drink it? I'm not happy with that answer. I'm just gonna turn the air conditioner up instead.

[Andrew_TSKS]

Oh JESUS that Achewood episode is depressing.

[G.C.R]

I was gonna say

but then I got distracted actually reading the strip, which I dont think I ever have
Its pretty fucking good, isnt it? To the "Thing you discovered which everyone has known about for years even" thread, or whatever its called.

[girl]

Holy cow, this is a thick beer, isn't it? (Great Divide Oak Aged Yeti Stout) I think I've got the temperature right. I had it in the fridge for about an hour, so it's colder than room temperature, but not ice cold. It's quite good despite the fact that it's summer.

[jess]

Open bar events on Thursdays are a baaaaad idea. Damn you Yelp. By that I mean I love you and please keep giving me free overly sweet cocktails made with whatever flavored vodka is sponsoring that night's event. Just next time have it on a weekend, kthnzx?

Black cherry vodka and diet coke is not that bad, btw, kind of like grown up cherry coke, if not anything I'd ever pay for.

Jesus jumping Christ on a pogo stick today was long. You bet your ass it's miller time.

Brew Week has got my palate so fucked up I drank Miller High Life Light tonight just to give my tongue a break

This is where you lose me. I don't understand why one would choose something like that over, say, water.

[diesel_powered]

That reminds me of an Absolutely Fabulous episode where Edina tries to explain what water is to Patsy. "It's a mixer, Pats. You have it with whiskey."

[girl]

Right. Never mind.

Cheers!
