Terminalcoffee discussion

I sell a lot of the hideous concoctions known as Irish car bombs. I would never ever ever drink one.
And they make the glasses so disgusting! I don't mind washing glassware but those are always all curdled and gross when I take them off the table, and you have to fish the shot glass out of the pint glass.
Also, I can't chug. I am happy to have a beer or a shot of whiskey with you, but I will not play beer pong, and I will not race you.

You?

I will play beer pong, but I will not race drinking anymore, eventually even if you win you lose.

I can drink eight beers and still weave around the house, but hard alcohol of just about any nature will floor me within a couple shots. I used to love Long Island Iced Teas, though. What's in an Irish Car Bomb?

I'm guessing here, because I've never had one, but based on Sarah's description, I'm picturing that an Irish Car Bomb might be a shot of Bailey's Irish Cream dropped into a pint of Guinness. If so, good way to spoil a perfectly nice pint.

You're close.
Its a pint of Guinness
with a shot glass of 1/2 Jameson Whiskey and 1/2 Bailey's

Sounds gross.
Just give me the pint.

no recent experience (for about 15 yrs now) but i do remember when long island ice tea's first became popular and they would sell them by the pitcher. you would order a pitcher (or three) and sit and drink them thinking they were not affecting you at all. then when you stood up to take a leak it felt like someone slugged you with a croquet mallet. like a sneaky sucker punch

Sometimes people buy me what's called a "Poudre River Drop-Off" and it does make the earth veer crooked. I haven't had one in about 4 years because the last time I was hurting for days.
It has baileys and Jameson, I think, but also 151 and Kaluha.

I am really hung over this morning. Last night I took my kids to a concert in the park and my neighbors got me very drunk. I blame them. I think I had maybe five or six Coronas, a Sprechter, a Miller Lite, and a Mike's Lemonade.

The Miller Lite was because you were watching your calorie count?

Just reading about that combination of beers makes me nauseous.

HOLY cow... I had ONE beer (more like half a beer) last night and I just... JUST woke up!

Two pear ciders have me knocking over my glass as I over-gesticulate (yes, I talk with my hands), and unable to walk straight.
I think three of anything would have me out.

One of our bartenders came in the other night with some friends on a night that he wasn't working. He had a fair bit to drink, and I think they went elsewhere afterward.
He called the next day to say he had been late for his day job the next day because he needed to shower and change his clothes because he had woken up on the couch and discovered he had crapped his pants.
I can safely say that I have never and will never drink so much as to lose control of my bowels. Nowhere close.

Had a B-52 once. Godiva chocolate liquor, Bailey's and something else maybe Orange liquor. I have never felt so much like death in my entire life.

well sarah, it is safe to assume he is not making that excuse up to be late to work.

Good point.

Then again, if he is making up an excuse, just imagine what really happened...

Wow. Oversharing....

The closest I ever felt to death after drinking was after a night of appletinis. (I usually just stick to beer.) Felt absolutely fine until about 3 hours into sleep when I woke up and it seemed every last drop of moisture had drained from my body. Drank water, went back to bed, had to get up at 8 because I was on a business trip. I was still swooning and careening around the room at that point.

Yuck. Appletinis? You seem like a gal who needs to stick to beer. Sorry, You dislike the word Gal. But Gal and Beer kind of go together like appletini and chick.

What's an appletini?

Well, apparently it's bright green. But what's in it?

wiki knows all: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Appletini

* 4cl (3 parts) Vodka
* 1.5cl (1 part) Apple schnapps
* 1.5cl (1 part) Cointreau

Sounds like something I would probably not try.

me neither. i don't like any drinks with apple in it.
