How do you take yr Fernet-Branca?

first time i ever got pissed chartreuse was involved i got nothing good to say about chartreuse

I mean I use you as a leitmo-benchmark. the only aroma round here is morbidity tbh, but it's all lol iirc.

xpost

or something. I wuz gwine do a Stendhal joek but couldnae be aris'd.

I've never had green chartreuse. feeling the lack right now.

it's fantastic value, it was 16 years ago and i'm still retching from the slow finish

it was rhetorical, u drunken windbag, pipe down

oh I missed it.

s'ok you've been drinking innit

you can tell the quality of a chartreuse by the legs of vomit it leaves down the wall of your beloved's parent's house.

oh no Fernet is nothing like Chartreuse...it's nothing like anything

s'ok you've been drinking innit

oh an observational comedian.

galliano, that was another good one, that funny bottle almost designed to be slipped into the inner pocket of a 16 year old's jacket, assuming he was cute/desperate enough to tear the bottom out of said pocket and subsequently lose the whole fuckin bottle round the back of his coat's inner lining

oh no Fernet is nothing like Chartreuse...it's nothing like /anything/

I wish you'd told me that before I started sd. all I've got is darragh and that's like using shifting sands as a lighthouse.

three of us puking into the sinks in double physics the next morning, don't tell me it was misspent

sorry i'm flighty on remembered drunks

For most mortals, Fernet is thankfully self-limiting.

grasping for a bottle in the inner lining of a long-ago given jacket without any due regard for the hiding that went into the f'ing process in the first place is... a thing. I'm listening to some loud music it's making it difficult to...

we had a corporate trainer type fella come into work today. nice chap. complete twat. I mean that's how you think about life srsly?

I swear this fernet is off. drinking macallan

we should have a general 'thread for having drunk stuff that's not really meant to be drunk like that' so as not to spoil this one tbf

I feel like trying fernet again tho. seandelai has convinced me.

Everyone should drink it once.

oh xpost fair enough. I'm kinda wanting to hug darragh n seandelai. that's bad.

fernet is like something, and that something is toothpaste

i'm not sure that corporate trainers think like that, i like to think they're just paid to travel round and pretend they do. you'd hope so, i mean, you'd really hope so.

we have to import all of ours from england, i mean without exception any of these people i've ever encountered are english, probably from greater manchester had i to narrow it down. i've just checked and i have been agreed with.

I'm only drinking this cos continental strength lager and cramp sweetish red wine brother bought me last night is finished. I watched dark knight rises while drinking it.

Fernet tastes like Jaegermeister without the syrupy sweetness.
and/or liquid potpourri

no I agree with the Greater Manchester location. this person was sincerely mamchester.

crap not cramp.

that has all the hallmarks of a quality thread revive fizzles, go for it imo

I'm going to try this off fernet again. ilx - makes you drink.

the add for thor makes me want to see thor

Ok ok, you guys punctured my hyperbole. Hope you're proud of yourselves.

that has all the hallmarks of a quality thread revive fizzles, go for it imo

I'm trying, d, I'm trying. it's not all architect's boards and libertarian g/fs tho.

it's pronounced hyperbole fyi

^ my favourite ronan joke ever

the fernet was sitting without a lid on next to the eggs on the chopping board.

how the fuck do you propose to chop eggs

xp I'd be more worried about those eggs then.

I nivver knew until one TWO years ago that as sure as eggs is eggs came from a comical pron. of as sure as x is x.

no I'm not chopping iggs it's just my kitchen is a state.

this fernet's tasting ok now maybe I was wrong and sd was right.

l'etat c'est bois

wait that doesnt mean drink at all scratch that

l'infer c'est l'water.

it's v hard to find an art sustainable against drink obv.

every irish writer ever aside you mean

tell you what i'd swap this connemara for two dairy milks

Fernet tastes like Jaegermeister without the syrupy sweetness.
and/or liquid potpourri

liquid potpourri is good milo. it's right. I once foolishly compared it to Wallace Stevens' knack for rhyme, but no that was silly. I like it tho.

every irish writer ever aside you mean

I rly want to read Ulysses again.

fuck that's absurd. I'm just sitting here drinking fernet listening to loud music. wtf I know about Irish writing Ulysses or the fuck.

think i heard a theory once that it already assumes a previous reading and a future reading and therefore can never be read again so much as that each reading is part of the continuous narrative of the reading itself

but this fella was rolled out drunk and a nut for joyce besides iirc

yeah and anyone who uses "again" wrt (WITH. REGARD. TO.) Joyce needs dey balls examined with a boot.

i need to try again. yerman put me off it tbh.

we actually bought a small bottle of Jaegermeister recently, something I hadn't tasted in probably 25 years

It was ice cold and it wasn't half bad - nice herbal profile, not too sweet

I'll wait another 25 years and try it again
