Vodka, How Do I Love Thee

F Me In The Brain

Hahaha.  Zima is for time travelers.

I have never tried a Zima.

I am not a vodka connoisseur at all; I'm more a wine and rye kinda gal. But I do enjoy a greyhound now and again, and white Russians are tasty. But what I really enjoy is vodka with energy drinks, lol, preferably sugar-free red bull or sugar-free rockstar (and you can buy the sugar-free rockstars with vodka already in them in Canada). I am not even a fan of energy drinks at all, but there is something about putting vodka in them that makes it really weirdly appealing to me.... plus they're good when you're low on energy at a party, haha. I know this is low-brow vodka use, but I don't care.

Never have a lot of them though if you are subject to hangovers.  We topped off a day of drinking all day watching football...probably 15-20 glasses each with after dinner and fir the rest of the night Vodka Red Bulls.  Probably had 10-15 of those.  
Not supposed to drink with that much sugar.  Hangover bomb.

Huh, I always thought that Ani, F Me and Scruffy were men.

Takes a while on the internet to pin down genders. Now I know that Scruffy is the hot chick who's totally out of that dude's league in her avatar. I'd always assumed otherwise. 

I've met the other two, though, so they're harder to explain. Butchies, I guess?

I tuck it back.

And then knock back more vodka!

I posted it once, I'll post it again

I recently got into Parks & Recreation and when I watched that episode I chuckled and thought about you sharing that clip.  While Ron Swanson is indeed a great man, this is yet another way I sway from the Swanson Path.

Many life lessons can be learned from Mr. Swanson, such as his position on clear alcohol and old wooden sailing ships.  That said, as with anyone he can be very wrong on many things, such as his position on Europe, buffets and fish.

I loved his reaction to getting Employee of the Month.  (Especially how he uses the branch to smooth it out and hide his tracks.)

Phenomenal.  I could watch Parks & Rec clips all day.  Legitimately obsessed.

It is literally the greatest show in the history of television.

(It isnt but I felt like channeling my inner Chris Traeger right there.)

I am down to only 7 episodes left in Season 6.  13 episodes in the final season 7 await....will be bummed when I am done.  It is a perfect way to spend 20 minutes almost at any time.  105 episodes in June/July means I am obsessed as well.  Lots of late night "one more episode" moments that amounted to 3 more episodes.

That is why I go with the sugar-free red bull. I agree, sugar and booze do not mix. I hate sugary drinks in all cases, and booze just makes them that much worse. I haven't drank a sugary soda or slushy or anything else with sugar in it for probably 20 years. I just don't like them. I have no problems with aspartame though, lol. I love diet soda, etc.

It's the best.  I hear you.  They used to do marathons on Esquire and I would watch it all night.  I love every character in it.

can't believe i just went pretty much through the entirety this thread... not all of it but nearly. not one swingin john roger put up "lemon drops" or "vikingfjord vodka"    

lemon drops: get your vodka, get your lemons & get your powdered sugar. cut up your lemons. i myself enjoy a larger lemon wedge so my lemon wedges are bulky like me. roll your lemon wedge in powdered sugar & get ready. drink your vodka shooter, eat your powdered sugary citrus wedge. quit fucking around & do so often       

I love lemon drops. They're my regular go-to cocktail lately.

Oh, cocktail? Where I am, a lemon drop is a shot of vodka with a sugar rim and a lemon wedge on the side. You shoot the vodka, getting the sugar rim while you're at it, and then you suck on the lemon wedge. Tastes just like a lemon drop. I've never heard of a lemon drop cocktail.
