Drink of choice

[Manc]

What is yours?

I'm all over gin these days. Cheap on the pocket and macros.

[Giggles]

Okocim Mocne these days now that I've found a decent supply of it. Guinness in the pub.

[Benny]

Gin and bitter lemon like an old lady, but when it comes to beers there's not much beating this shit:

Having to stock up on the shit when I go to Belgium again next month, if we're talking lagers though this is my current flavour:

If it's a pint, any cider that they have on tap.

If not, vodka and cranberry juice. :cool:

I got given that by some dumb Australian at the weekend, when I asked for Irn Bru and vodka. Awful.

[simon]

A world where Irn Bru and vodka is deemed better than vodka and cranberry juice is not a world I want to live in.

[leedsrevolution]

I drink Irn Bru with bourbon. Good shit. Vodka is just foul whatever it's mixed with.

Not quite on the level of venoms, but not bad at all.

[igor_balis]

Vodka cranberry is the tits on a night out, and goes especially well with eccies I find. I'll fucking drink anything though. Red wine, g & t, tom collins if it's a cocktail place, ale, lager, whisky. All good in the right context. Prosecco goes nice with greasy food as well.

[John]

Venoms are an abysmal disgrace.

Mixing cranberry juice, a diuretic, with MDMA, which causes massive dehydration, isn't the smartest move you could make.

[Pen]

I tend to prefer a good pint of cider over most things, especially on a night out, but whisky and red wine have their place every now and again too.

Apart from a gin and tonic that the missus makes from time to time, I don't remember the last time I would've mixed something with my alcohol. It almost never does it any good, unless you're in some sort of cocktail place where they really know their shit (that's just not really my scene).

[Lee]

I don't know how people bring themselves to take drugs. I don't give a shit what people want to do but I'm absolutely convinced that if I took any kind of pill that I'd die seizing on a dancefloor in some shithole.

[Magic]

You did that last Friday with your dad dancing.

[niko_cee]

Release the Kraken! (http://www.krakenrum.com/)

Or more commonly some kind of ale. Doom Bar's not bad.

[Lee]

Dancing does not happen.

[Jimmy Floyd]

Pint of lager or straight single malt. I can't be doing with clear liquids other than water.

[QE Harold Flair]

Only gay men enjoy dancing. Obviously lots of women do but blokes just look awkward most of the time.

[Magic]

Would be better bantz if we knew each other. :(

[Boydy]

Usually just lager. Been partial to a Guinness lately and there's a new ale in the bar I work in that I actually really like so maybe I'm slipping into middle age already and I'll be a real ale wanker soon.

Still so much better than a craft beer bore.

Ha aye, but I mean I'm not exactly caning either. Plenty of water too. I think it is just association. I was well into vodka cranberry when I discovered e so now they just seem to go together.

[Magic]

Poof juice quenched the ecto thirst a treat. £1 bottles too.

At risk of stating the obvious, because it is really fucking fun. And as long as you buy from a trusted source, pretty fucking safe.

[Raoul Duke]

Some kind of pale ale/blonde beer preferably. Guinness or G&Ts other than that.

[Magic]

Isn't G&T a strictly homosexual beverage?

[John]

Buying off someone you know is obviously better than buying off some sweaty bloke in the smoking bit, but pills aren't 'pretty fucking safe' no matter who you're getting them from, because your mate who knows a guy isn't making them himself. We had some for chemical analysis in uni and of the 24 tested more than half had traces of strychnine.

Of course, of course. Fair points. But I mean, I'd never touch stuff until I knew other people had already taken stuff out of that "batch" etc. And generally when people die from dodgy pills they've done like 8 or something ridiculous. If you're doing a couple of pills from a trusted source, and you know people who have had no issues I'd say it would be pretty fucking safe.

[Dark Soldier]

I drink spirits neat, so gin is out the equation. Rarely drink them though, if I do its Jim Beam or some flavoured vodka.

Ice cold Strongbow is my go to at home, any old lager when I'm out.

I had 12 Rolexs once.

Why waste your money on watches when you could spend the money on a holiday???

At least he'd actually have something with the watches rather than flitting it away on nothing.

Flavoured vodka is the pits. That reminds me though, that 'New Amsterdam' vodka that's been advertised everywhere is terrible. Avoid it. I finished off a two litre bottle of Ciroq that's been sitting in my cupboard for about six months the other day, and I've decided that's now the only vodka I'll drink. So much smoother than anything else, including Grey Goose and the like.

[Giggles]

I did a flavoured tasting thing in Krakow in the summer and found them much nicer than expected. Helped that they were freezing cold too.

The coffee and hazelnut ones were especially nice.

[Lewis]

I've probably been drinking too much Pepsi Max recently. It's just so good though.

[Boydy]

Pepsi Max is the worst of all the Coca-Colas and Pepsi. Complete filth. :sick:

[Waffdon]

It really is disgusting, isn't it? Dr Pepper is the go to drink atm.

[Lewis]

Shut up, idiots.

[Giggles]

Pepsi Max is nectar you cunts.

[Waffdon]

Poor sods.

[Boydy]

Coke Zero is the daddy of the sugar free colas.

Diet Pepsi is nicer than Pepsi Max as well. Pepsi Max has a proper disgusting artificial sweetener flavour to it.

[Waffdon]

Diet Pepsi is minging as well. Non diet really is the best,, other than Irn Bru.

[Ian]

Beer. Preferably something ale-y but a lager'll do as well. Failing that, whisky.

On the non-alcohol front I could drink milk all day if that wasn't such a terrible idea.

[Lewis]

Milk is good for you mate.

[Ian]

As much as milk is fairly heroic I'd imagine drinking pints of it a day would make me even more of a mess than I am now.

[mugbull]

Milk is the opposite of good for you, in fact you shouldn't even be drinking milk past the age of two. Cow dairy in general is just not particularly meant for human consumption and we react weirdly to it. I guess if we had a human tit-milk extraction process it wouldn't be so bad. Especially if they hired supermodels to provide the milk and then posted their pics on the cartons, that could be a whole advertising campaign. People would clamor to buy the carton with the hottest girl on it and then talk about her milk for days

[phonics]

I drink far too many cans of Coca Cola despite barely leaving my house. I could buy 1 bottle and save myself a fiver a day but I find myself downing it when anything larger than a can is on offer.

If I'm drinking it's beer 90% of the time and a whiskey/coke if I should have stopped drinking hours ago. Long Island Ice Tea if it's cocktail night.

[CJay]

I enjoy Coca Cola, but I struggle to finish a simple 330ml can, but everything is better drunk from a can in my opinion.

[Spoonsky]

Friends and I recently made vodka-soaked gummy worms and peach rings. They all found it more or less disgusting but I love that shit. Otherwise I'm partial to peach vodka.

My go-to drink in the house is currently an Italian soda of lychee nut mixed with Vimto flavoring. Either one is great on its own but together...

[QE Harold Flair]

Since I made the excellent decision to invest in a blender I've been making my own milkshakes. 2 bananas, 2 litres of milk and a tablespoon or so of sugar, then sieve that shit. Glorious.

[Giggles]

I've switched to the cans of Pepsi Max now too since they brought out the 500ml one. Definitely prefer it from the can.

[niko_cee]

It's interesting in a thread about alcohol, and in a discussion about artificial sweetener laden filth, someone sees fit to wade in on the anti-milk front. There's that gluten free Tesco Christmas advert doing the rounds as well. End of days stuff.

[Kikó]

I rarely drink milk anymore , just almond or soya. I actually hate the flavour in latte's (which I don't really drink anymore because it's not a coffee.)

I think my beverage of choice is either a glass of red (malbec is usually a solid number), a pale ale or a whiskey (glenlivet or similar.)

I can only imagine the horror of me ten years ago reading the above post.

[Manc]

Long Island Ice Tea if it's cocktail night.

Now we're talking.

Baller. :cool:

[Spammer]

Mostly lager or cider for me. My dad buys me a pint of ale everytime I go for a drink with him in some covert attempt to get me drinking it but I never enjoy it.

[Davgooner]

Still Stella, though I always have a few ciders kicking about as well.

[Byron]

Whatever Cider is on tap, so usually Strongbow, Aspall or Symonds (which in particular is fucking lovely) and if there is nothing on tap then other than asking 'why the fuck am I here?' it'll be Kopparberg or Rekorderlig. Used to be mad for Pepsi Max but as part of the 'lose weight' plan I've had to cut that shit right down and now I love the Strathmore Flavoured Sparkling Water.

[Pen]

Everyone who drink either milk or Pepsi Max are going straight on top of my possible nonces list in that thread Boydy made. If you have such a shit taste in drink you're other tastes are probably just as horrid.

[Toby]

lol at that

Am I remembering right that you're lactose intolerant? If so that comes across as remarkably bitter.

[Magic]

75% of paedophiles actually have some sort of lactose intolerance.

[Manc]

Milk is brilliant.

I swear about half of your posts are crap YouTube videos, most of them with a tenuous at best connection to the thread you're in.

[Pen]

Good memory. There's plenty of UHT and lactose free stuff around though if I would like to drink milk. I just think it tastes horrid.

Is that relevant enough for you John, you moody cunt?

[niko_cee]

UHT milk doesn't contain lactose?

It is rank stuff though.

Proper milk is good, although I rarely drink it straight (it does make an excellent, non-cup of tea alternative for consumption with fish and chips).

[Toby]

Those don't taste the same though.

I wonder if there's anything in the physiology of an allergy like that to make you like it less? Probably not, unless it was learned behaviour in the style of not wanting to eat things that have you made sick.

[igor_balis]

Actually, sorry John. You probably have a point. If everyone is getting tired of the youtube video frenzy I'll save them for annoying people I know in real life.

That is quite excellent.

[John]

Which meant he had to create a second fake email address, because the system won't let two accounts share one.

The fucking nutcase.

[igor_balis]

That is fantastic.

[Lewis]

'Pen' is still the biggest prick in the thread.

[Pen]

I think it does, but due to the way that its boiled (or something) it doesn't make people with lactose intolerance shit themselves. I agree that it's rank like all other milk.

I eat milk products almost daily, though I'm not a big fan of most of them. Milk I've just always found to be the second worst thing there is after cottage cheese.
