For me, Im glad to have never met most people :lol:. I wouldnt let her swat the pint from my hands, but I do like the kinda joy of life one must have to carry on that way. Im attracted to that to some extent. Mainly just find it a fascinating story too.

But I don't think she had a joy of life.

These types of people are masochists. They, for one reason or another, like being miserable and get off from depriving themselves from all fun and entertainment. 

What's that saying? Misery loves company. These people, and there are plenty of them today, love to shit on everyone else's freedoms because they're just miserable fucks.

It’s like aniseed or something. You used to get aniseed sweets in the industrial age. 

Yeah, anise and liquorice are very similar flavours. I grow anise hyssop, which is a flowering herb, and used a tea to brew some light beer. Turns out the flavour only really pairs with a strong alcohol flavour.

like Pastis? I need to get some Feta and Olives, or just pour salt on bread. Which seems more likely.

I'm on antibiotics, they're specified no drink.  Now usually I ignore these sorts of directives, concluding that they are probably similar to what it means when you have anti-depressants and that, don't mix with alcohol or you'll get more fucked up.  But I've googled this one but apparently it reacts badly and possibly makes you violently sick.  I am considering my options :lol:

The burden already works overtime handling the antibiotics, so don't fuck it up by forcing it to detoxify alcohol too.

Nobody discusses drinking better than Shakespeare, my highlighting,

Quote

 

Porter

'Faith sir, we were carousing till the
second cock: and drink, sir, is a great
provoker of three things.

MACDUFF

What three things does drink especially provoke?

Porter

Marry, sir, nose-painting, sleep, and
urine. Lechery, sir, it provokes, and unprovokes;
it provokes the desire, but it takes
away the performance: therefore, much drink
may be said to be an equivocator with lechery:
it makes him, and it mars him; it sets
him on, and it takes him off; it persuades him,
and disheartens him; makes him stand to, and
not stand to; in conclusion, equivocates him
in a sleep, and, giving him the lie, leaves him.

MACDUFF

I believe drink gave thee the lie last night.

Porter

That it did, sir, i' the very throat on
me: but I requited him for his lie; and, I
think, being too strong for him, though he took
up my legs sometime, yet I made a shift to cast
him.

 

- Macbeth

Quote

 

CASSIO

'Fore God, an excellent song.

IAGO

I learned it in England, where, indeed, they are
most potent in potting: your Dane, your German, and
your swag-bellied Hollander--Drink, ho!--are nothing
to your English.

CASSIO

Is your Englishman so expert in his drinking?

IAGO

Why, he drinks you, with facility, your Dane dead
drunk; he sweats not to overthrow your Almain; he
gives your Hollander a vomit, ere the next pottle
can be filled.

 

- Othello

"That's the problem with drinking, I thought, as I poured myself a drink. If something bad happens you drink in an attempt to forget; if something good happens you drink in order to celebrate; and if nothing happens you drink to make something happen."

—Charles Bukowski
