want to return to this question. didn't have an answer back then but have recently discovered bourbon and it's been a revelation. favorite so far is maker's but i suspect that's a novice answer.

if you let that worry you at the start you'll never graduate from novice ime.

I f/w sweeter pot stills and single malts, I can recommend peatier stuff I've tried but that's nakh's range tbh. never could stick yr American ryes or w/e but I have enjoyed bourbons, fave is prob- no snob nor expert here- jack daniels single barrel.

go-to and memorables- glenfiddich 12, Yamazaki 12, green spot, redbreast single pot, bushmills 16, glenmorangie 10 (I think) Glenlivet 12

tonight I'm drinking tesco finest reserve from a fuckin big glass and there's nothing at all wrong with it

favourite...for example of Irish prob redbreast. scotch Glenfiddich 12. no categories straight up pick one, tonight yamazaki

i always thought it was strange that, given my family's irish heritage, we have gravitated more toward scotch than irish whiskey. i can't ever remember my grandfather drinking jameson's or bushmill's. scotch seems harsher and less accessible to me than bourbon, but i think i will give it a shot again soon.

i feel a pleasant buzz right now from two glasses of bourbon while doing my reading for class tomorrow. only downside is that i've been kind of unrestrained in my facebook messaging but i think this has been positive and ultimately what i am doing is solidifying friendships.

idk bout that but drunk posting to ilx made me the man I am today

how do you rate the band 'biffy clyro'

never knowingly heard m8

thats a shame

noticed u did a sort of fake erse version of the displayname of the poster formerly known as 'ice cr?m' today

how would u do the same thing for noted irish american treesh?

hmmm

could go literal or alliteral

trísiop would suffice for latter but would mean v little I'm afraid

crannlong is basic string two together translation but rly I'm guessing you'd have to make it longcrainn or maybe crann an loinge or some such

there is a word or two a little more decorative that may or may not apply depending on the lad himselfs self-definition of the name I spose crannúil is a good descriptor and a good word to intone and would translate as treeish if one were so inclined or w/e (arboreal? you prob know)

there's doubtless words specifically for timbers and such if one chased this root to a nautical conclusion but then I guess in order to so work it would need to function on the ship and work back giving....idk.

quick search sez crannàil are masts he may have to be satisfied with that as a good metaphor and half translation.

no i mean a purely phonetic version of 'treesh'

a phrase that if spoken by an erse speaker would have the same pronunciation as 'treesh' does to an english speaker

trísiop is cool though, what would it be without the second syllable

ya just drop the iop and trís would do it so

trís

thats cool

fuck you, you got in 35 seconds ahead of me!!!

nách tí bhean? almost translates to "is there a woman of the house?" which is a good portentous type of intro to something i think, i mean it's def a bit garbled and simplified but imagine brendan fraser playing connemara man (encino man in the US rly?) and it prob works

have u read heinrich bolls ireland book

nope but obv i will have known the cottage, my paternal aunt is heavily involved iirc

she's one of my favourite ppl she is a lecturer in feminist theology and christian ritual we have marvellous fights

^lol

feminist theology and christian ritual

and i mean among other interests

so much dogshit at the confluence of the academic left and xtianity

it's where indulgences intertwine nest pas tho

deems la i got that heinrich boll ireland book

seems a bit luftmenschy

i expect i will like it but im not sure he ever saw the harsher side of ireland rather than the bucolic realness

when did an artist bychoice plunged into misery ever affect elsewise tho.

other ppls misery obv

theres another literary tradition of viewing the countryside as a sort of abbatoir en plein air

deems could you summarize the history of your appreciation of the wu tang clan

i downloaded an album by that and several other bands when i changed phones (ie recently) and have found the album to my tastes

just assumed rza had been on soccer am due to alimony troubles

why u gotta be like that tho

hi everyone btw

I like this guy and will be sad when his internet gets disconnected and he'll have to work 18 hours a day

this has basically come true fwiw.

this has come v much untrue btw

deems what do u think of this track

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghMOacGV1gQ

take out the distortions and it'd be strictly ok I guess

the other week i was thinking while intoxicated that it is almost a template for that very early oasis sound, give or take a little less monody and distortion and a bit more t rex beatles football chants etc etc

its a bit that ok, but I'd go status quo/trex/slade first before assuming noely g was spreading wings any wider

yes i wasnt suggesting he was copying spacemen 3, although its not too unlikely thar he heard them

he probably he did borrow something from ride, chapterhouse etc who were following in their slipstream

youd possibly like the first two albums by ride actually, assuming you dont already know them or think they are shit

I will check em out &thks

I dont v often think "thats shit" but I do tend towards "I dont rly need to hear anything right now" and then its even more seldom I need that anything to be new iykwim

any truth to the rumours you have recently been promoted deems

its happening in instalments is the thing
