Icehouse has a higher ABV than pbr and is a cheaper way to get drunk. Coffee And Pie posted:Miller High Life was my first beer I think, so I'll always have a soft spot for the Champagne of Beers.

It's not so bad, you just have to be conscientious about how much you're drinking. As long as you remember that 1 shot of everclear is equivalent to about 2.5 shots of vodka, you'll be fine. Admittedly, remembering that does tend to get more difficult after your first drink.

Josh Lyman posted:I meant at that point just do shots of Everclear. I've actually made grain alcohol martinis a few times, the trick is to use the older ratio of spirit to vermouth and put three of the fattest olives in. It was generally made as a "end of the evening pass it around to make everyone take a sip in some weird friendship ritual" thing and not like a drink one would just make.

See, he didn't mention that he has the taste of a 12-year-old. Anyway, Everclearchat: I heard once that Everclear hurts so bad when you drink it straight because it's evaporating the water on the surface of your esophagus. Is that true?

My body is unaccustomed to being clean, but for whatever reason fizzy water kills the cravings:  Looking forward to a drink (or two) and cigar (or two) tomorrow.

Bought a stack of morgans.  Our coins used to be big, beautiful, and made of silver. Now they're little plated things with the same 5 dead guys on em. Even our paper money used to be artistically much better.

Aramek posted:Wait, what? Germany is cheap as hell for beer. Norway has some extreme taxes or something on alcohol so even bottom tier lagers/pils are going to be a few dollars a can at least. Also if you want beer stronger than 4.6% or liquor you have to go to the government run shops that close at 6 (3 on saturday, closed sundays). It must take extreme dedication and a great job to be an alcoholic up here.

Cheap beer in a normal store: $3 "Cheap" beer at a pub: $12 Bottle of Smirnoff (0.7L) at the liquor store: $37 Everything fun in Norway is taxed. On this bottle of Smirnoff, ~65% of the price are taxes to the government. Last time I bought cigarettes (a few years ago) they were $13 for a 20pk. Welcome to Norway,

bowmore posted:Yeah but the taxes pay for good stuff Well yes I'm not complaining that hard. It's more for tourists that aren't prepared for the prices we have here. Most Norwegians are used to it, and though we complain (because we love complaining), we really can't complain that much considering that we do live pretty well. E: And it's also nice that almost anywhere in the world where we travel, it will be cheaper than home. Which is the reason why you will find drunk Norwegians everywhere.

I ask because all my books are on my Google Play library It runs the Android-based Fire OS, but it's pretty easy to sideload the actual Google Play store and download any app you want. I assume that includes Google Play Books.

Meant to poke around for some when I was poking around bins at some DC record shops a few weeks ago, but forgot. Also, warning if that's one of the Blackened represses of Metallica. I don't know about Kill 'Em All, but the repress of Justice is terrible, and I've heard the same of Master of Puppets.
