Random Rants : Pissed tae th' gills

[Takhisis]

There's no such thing as non-polish history. All history is polish history. To the extent that it's normally just called history.

That is because Poland is everywhere.

Purchased a used book from an Amazon seller who described it as "hardcover" in "very good" condition. Unfortunately it was softcover and junk. Highlighting, underlining. worn cover and edges. I paid 20.00 for it and could have ordered it from the publisher brand new for 14.00. I'm pissed to th' gills! I don't think I'm going to fool with Amazon any more. Too many rip-offs.

 

[Verarde]

Friend of mine got dumped for some really stupid reasons. He's pissed, my RA's pissed, I'm pissed.

yeah.

On Friday night, one of my roommates puked along the wall, ruining my Superman poster and creating a small crusty area on the side of my mattress. He has yet to clean it up.

Don't bunk with a drunk, people.

Except space. Polan cannot into space.

I feel sorry for you :/

Buy him some really quite strong liquor.

Might I recommend some Wood's Rum?

Get him to drink the whole bottle in one session. It'll probably finish him off.

Also, loud noises played to a hangover would cause him genuine grief.

Your problem was using an "Amazon seller" instead of restricting your purchases to Amazon.com itself. I very rarely step outside of that comfort zone, and therefore and almost never anything but just happy as hell with amazon (disclaimer, 7+ year prime member.)

At least that makes a funny story .




Meh, seems that my only halfway reasonable encounter with a single woman this year didn't result in anything .

Wasn't there at least a picture?

Polan can haz into everything.

I recommend a harmonica.

 

[Borachio]

Don't be silly. You can't drink a harmonica.

Spoiler :

Can you? What does one taste like?

 

[Takhisis]

You melt it and pour the molten metal down that <snip> <snip> throat.

But drunks are such fun. You can do all sorts of things with them.

Marker pens and tattoos spring to mind.

Pet food is a good one.

 

[Takhisis]

Well, we can always play the harmonica when he's having his über-hangover&#8230;

 

[Terxpahseyton]

If he is a heavy drinker, a bottle of rum, even strong rum, shouldn't be a matter. It will just make him puke again at worst. I mean I wouldn't consider myself a heavy drinker, though I drink, and I could stomach that bottle. When I combine it with some good eating, easily so.

 

[Borachio]

Ah, but you see, he'll be a young drinker. Who thinks he knows how to drink. He'll likely not be accustomed to 100 proof spirit though, and he'll likely think it's just like any other spirit, drink the same sort of quantity and believe he's been poisoned. Hilarious!

70ml of any spirit is enough to kill a normal adult (given the right sort of conditions). 70ml of something which is half again as strong is enough to kill him quicker.

This is my theory and I'm fond of it.

Seriously, drinking like this is the sign of some deep-seated (though common enough) psychological malaise. The guy's plainly compensating for something.

Possibly insecurity? What do you think?

 

[Terxpahseyton]

If we talk about "100 proof spirit" I really am out of my territory (did some absinthe or 80% alcohol, but always in moderation). So I'll take your word for it.

Hilarious!

For some probably twisted reason that made me laugh really hard.

:O
Is that your revenge for the old dumbledore? I am also a student you know

Though I am German so I am prone to have a head start on drinking to most Americans.

100 proof is probably a little less strong than 80%. It's a different scale and based on gunpowder. For some reason.

Nonono. I'm sure you're a sensible drinker of the kind that doesn't spew all over Mr Random's bedding.

And I pride myself on accepting all kinds of abuse. So I certainly don't intend any "revenge".

 

[Takhisis]

Just slip them something in that 100% spirit. A strong emetic might come in handy.

Getting over ~97-98% spirit requires distillations methods which are generally produce straight up lethal toxins.
