I think it's time to start drinkin'...

[GXT]

At the time I didn't even notice the whole dessert theme.

[Mister Obvious]

Yeah like that's the thing... are Jello shots supposed to be allowed to set??

Cuz I would just pour the Jello mix in and then add the water and vodka and drink that shit immediately.

Sometimes I just drink Jello mix, straight up.

I am not letting it set, nobody has time for that.

I don't even have any Jello mix but I do have some lemonade drink mix from WalMart.

This is gonna have to do. I might try it out tonight.

I'm gonna be drinking out of a 1980s Red Lobster cocktail glass...

Haha yeah I remember them being cubes of jello... so you're having to chew that dumb jello texture reminiscent of childhood lol just to get alcohol. Your idea is really better.
May as well go Long Island Iced Tea if you're breaking out that sweet 80s Red Lobster glass!

[GXT]

None of this is recommended or condoned though, for the record, alcohol is toxic poison!

[GXT]

I think people usually just swallowed them whole... but then why not just take a fkn shot of vodka?! Russians must laugh at us.

[Mister Obvious]

Wait, is Long Island Ice Tea made with vodka??

I just looked it up, it's made with a bunch of different stuff I don't have.

I'm just gonna go with the lemon drank.

My thing is, I don't really know how vodka makes me feel.

Beer feels different from wine and wine feels different from brandy...

At least in my opinion. I may not like the vodka.

I keep a bunch of SUPER cheap whiskey and vodka on hand for TEOTWAWKI purposes.

[Mister Obvious]

Cuz in a TSHTF scenario, you might NEED to be able to get wasted.

Like if the nukes are flying at us??

I say chug. But then at the same time, maybe it'd be better to face it sober.

If it was like an asteroid or something, I'd totally embrace that shit and just be sober, cuz at least an asteroid is just nature.

But nukes, I'm prolly gonna chug.

Wait, is Long Island Ice Tea made with vodka??

Lol I dunno... just remember having them once at Applebee's, which reminds me of Red Lobster.

[GXT]

Yeah vodka would be good for this...

[GXT]

If it was like an asteroid or something, I'd totally embrace that shit and just be sober, cuz at least an asteroid is just nature.

Oops... what I meant to say was, I'd still want vodka... maybe organic vodka.

[Mister Obvious]

Agh, my God...

Why don't we have more depictions of giant celestial bodies impacting the Earth??

There should honestly be so much more.

This is the one that really kicked off my 'asteroid impact' fetish back in like 2009...



This vid from 12 years ago is actually the 'new' one. It's a re-upload of the original.

It was super popular in doomer circles back in the day.

[Mister Obvious]

There is no way in hell I'd wanna be anything but sober for that.

[Mister Obvious]

This isn't the first time I've decided to start drinkin' BTW...

"Decided I'm gonna start drinking brandy."

I THINK MY BRANDY IS HAUNTED.

The brandy experiment is over for now...

Throughout the course of the almost 3 week experiment, I drank about 1 bottle (750ml).

The brandy era went on for 3 weeks, how long has this one gone on...

I posted this thread on 8/23 but I didn't actually drink anything until like 3 or 4 days later, so we'll just say it's almost been 2 weeks.

So technically I have one more week of nightly drinking before this behavior becomes concerning.

I really can't make a habit out of this, it's just so unlike me.

[Mister Obvious]

If it was wine, maybe I could make the excuse that I'm just transitioning into my boxed wine era of life...

This could be the middle ground though. If I decide I want to keep drinking past the 3 week mark, I'm gonna have to switch over to boxed wine.

No more beer or hard seltzer and certainly no vodka. Whiskey was never on the table cuz that shit is just way too nasty, no shade.

[Mister Obvious]

Gonna set up a reminder in my calendar to make sure I revisit this issue once the three week window is up.

I'll have to ask myself the tough question.

Do we stop drinking, or do we go ahead and chart a boxed wine course into the future?

It's too early to call it. Gonna need to see how this next week plays out.

[Mister Obvious]

According to my archives, I actually started drinking on 8/24.

Okay then... 9/14 will be the reevaluation date.

[GXT]

Wow that other drinking thread started just before covid-- which seemed to kick off a lot of boxed-wine drinking careers.
The pathetic governor of Ohio would come on everyday at 2 o'clock for a death/mask update and it became known as "Wine with Dewine"
for all the lockdown loving suburban ladies... Lol that memory alone is enough to deter me from wine forever.

[Mister Obvious]

I re-read a bunch of the brandy thread and now I'm tempted to get a bottle of peach brandy.

But at the same time, after talking about it so much, I don't even want a drink tonight, lmao.

[Mister Obvious]

So I just found out that consuming alcohol in the days leading up to menstruation makes cramps a lot worse.

Don't mind if I call off this year's alcohol phase early.

I avoid sugar and processed foods for the same reason...

I just didn't realize this was a thing.

If candy isn't worth it, alcohol sure the fuck ain't.

It was fun while it lasted.
