OT: Friday Night / Weekend Drinking Thread
Well, we’re all stuck inside. No sports. No golf. Empty nester so not much to do but kill the virus with alcohol.
Got home from work at 8pm and already downed a 6-pack of Oberon and now putting back a few PBRs before I go for some Bells Hopslam and Founders Double Trouble.
Whats in your glass tonight?
Drinking isopropyl alcohol.
Bourbon and blow. Have to keep my girlish figure living this sedentary lifestyle.

Isopropyl all over the hands.

Me in HS:
My crush: " 'cuse me, I think someone wrote ponyfreak on your backpack. "
Me: " I, uh how... "
March 27th, 2020 at 11:54 PM ^
Why would someone call you pony freak
March 27th, 2020 at 10:02 PM ^
That’s a lot of alcohol.
March 27th, 2020 at 10:04 PM ^
Misery

Had Negro Modelo with lime while grinding on some moose tacos. Followed by a Kir for dessert. I will likely break out the Middleton Very Rare 2018 to finish the evening.

Just water in my glass, although I did smoke a joint and take a shot of tussonex. And some prednisone. And levaquin. Because I have "bronchitis".
Probably should have taken the cough medicine first.

Hatter,
i have always been partial to bourbon for a sore throat.
Get well we need your acerbic wit on this site.
March 27th, 2020 at 11:23 PM ^
Been remiss if I do not state that if you drink alcohol with prednisone, you should take a proton pump inhibitor or H-2 blocker such as Nexium, Prilosec, Pepcid AC or Tagamet or their generic equivalents
March 27th, 2020 at 11:35 PM ^
Interesting. I did not know that.
But it's all pharmaceuticals for me tonight!
March 27th, 2020 at 11:15 PM ^
Take your temperature in the morning, and if you lose your sense of taste or smell, get tested!
March 27th, 2020 at 11:26 PM ^
It's tree pollen time, my nose has been fucked for weeks already. And I don't feel bad, so that's a good sign. But yeah, if get a high fever I'll be concerned.
March 27th, 2020 at 10:38 PM ^
Coca-Cola. Boring but it’s my thing!
March 27th, 2020 at 10:45 PM ^
I am very embarrassed by potus tonight . Disgusting

“Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea you have freedom of choice. You don't. You have no choice. You have OWNERS. They OWN you. They own everything. They own all the important land, they own and control the corporations that've long since bought and paid for, the senate, the congress, the state houses, the city halls, they got the judges in their back pocket, and they own all the big media companies so they control just about all of the news and the information you get to hear. They got you by the balls. They spend billions of dollars every year lobbying to get what they want. Well, we know what they want. They want more for themselves and less for everybody else. But I'll tell you what they don't want. They don't want a population of citizens capable of critical thinking. They don't want well informed, well educated people capable of critical thinking. They're not interested in that. That doesn't help them.”

Didn't see anything but...tonight is what would've done it for you?
March 27th, 2020 at 11:29 PM ^
I, for one, am outraged.
March 27th, 2020 at 11:03 PM ^
Bunch of craft beer per usual.
Pigeon Hall OCP, Oberon, Lager of the Lakes, Cheboygan Lighthouse Amber.

I finally have something interesting for one of these posts. 2007 Rodney Strong Reserve Cab Sauv. I was worried it might be getting a little old. I'm not a big wine drinker, but I don't mind the occasional glass. Anyway, I looked through my wine mini-fridge and noticed one of the three bottles was dated 2007. I understand that good quality wines properly stored in a wine cellar can last decades, but this is neither, so I thought I better take care of it tonight.

Started with mudslides, moved on to vodka with water and cherry jolly rancher cool aid, then just vodka, if the Corona don't kill me the alcohol surely will !!
March 27th, 2020 at 11:12 PM ^
Two Hearted and Ozark.
life is good for the uninfected!!
March 28th, 2020 at 12:51 AM ^
Mirror image for my night. Watched the first two episodes and we had a few THs
March 27th, 2020 at 11:12 PM ^
Probably grabbing a Pipestone Mai-bock, but maybe not. When I open the fridge in about 15 mins, all doubt will be removed. I do have 1 last Hopslam.....
March 27th, 2020 at 11:14 PM ^
Ozark and chill. This show is making a run at Breaking Bad this season.
March 27th, 2020 at 11:20 PM ^
Green tea. Wish it was more exciting than that. Work was a real meat grinder this week.
March 27th, 2020 at 11:40 PM ^
Just simple rum n cokes
