Definitely agree about double black its just too smokey! When I lived in England, I liked Bells and Famous Grouse (but not the Grouse black label, see above) . Not all that far off premium brands in taste. I also recall Peatlings, often a house double-pour in poverty-pubs. Not too bad. Like 100 Pipers from 7/11. My friend from Kyoto just bought something called Simply Red (the wine, not the bad singer) at a Fuji Superette and pronounced it a 600 baht bottle for 400 baht; which I think is some pretty feint praise.

Many people aim a staple gun at their dumb faces and just fire away. Oh, how I laugh. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont socialize much anymore. Just try to club a woman over the head and bring her back to the cave. For intellectual interests, there's movies, books, youtube. I don't trust people much. If I let other guys near my girl, they will end up sleeping with her. Socializing is over-rated. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Social drinking , one or two of what ever not to be confused with , shedful’s or binge ,call me a taxi cause I’m drunk days& nights are much more enjoyable than water or sprite! I didn’t drink alcohol for 20 years and than decided to start! I must say since I started the last 20 years have been much more enjoyable socially.

That's how I know they complain about customers getting angry if they don't drink alcohol. I go to a cinema to watch a movie and you sound a very, very self-righteous bore. The girls work in a BAR, what is it about that that you don't get? I go to bars to drink alcohol and I know many girl who work in bars and have rarely heard what you describe. Sounds like confirmation bias from an anti-drink evangelist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Millions eh? can I ask you to stop preaching? if you don't want to drink - don't! it's the same argument for anything same as smoking - don't like it don't do it. Abortion - don't like it don't have one. Stop trying to control everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not black and white and bar girls is also different individuals same as we are who visit those bars. Most is good to adopt to each and one of our personalities and make us feel Unique!

A short article for those who is interested. I only post the one related to alchohol in respect of this tread, but those who drink excessively amounts of alchohol might also to be reminded of other factors that weighs in, like sugar, carbs, etc Most advocate about happy shorter life instead of healthy longer life that many find boring, but who can say whats boring or not by living longer and healthier, even it is no guarantee it will be healthier and longer by living a little bit more restricted. Anyway a good read and a good start to research more if someone finds it interesting. https://blog.bioticsresearch.com/7-ways-to-promote-stem-cell-proliferation 7. Reduce Alcohol Consumption Long term alcohol intake will boost the accumulation of TRGs, suppressing stem cell activities. Furthermore, chronic binge drinking alters neurogenesisdue to ethanol impacting stem cell proliferation and differentiation. To promote the proliferation of healthy stem cells, alcohol consumption should be minimized. Edited January 20, 2023 by Hummin 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
