Midori Sours

:: pokes dropzone with a sharp stick::

Insult my drinks, will ya?! Hmph. What a dad.

:wink:

Ahhhh, for good tasting rum, you just can not beat Stroh.

I used to be a Captain Morgan’s man in college and the few years afterward. I would, on occasion, have a bottle of some fine Caribbean rum (Jack Iron, Appleton’s, Mount Gay or the like) but for general drinking, the Captain was where it’s at.

Then, one day, my friend Chuck introduced me to stroh and life changed forever. The sweet smell, the smooth taste might be easy to mistake for some lesser liqueur. The bold “80” on the label might appear to show it’s commonality with other rums.
The first sip…smooth, a hint of butterscotch and caramel…as it passes the gullet, you notice something and check the bottle again, still enjoying the flavor.

Hmm, it says that it’s 80% you think, processing that as the first bit of fire erupts in your stomach.

:eek:

80%?! That’s 160 proof! How can something that tastes so delicious be so very, very strong?

Well, it is and it is delicious.

'nuff said.

It’s only hip to get drunk if you are hip when you’re drunk. Obviously, some here have a problem with maintaining their hip-ness while intoxicated, so by all means drink those no-buzz carryin’ wastes of money. No sweat off my back . .

All of those college kids getting stupid drunk and screaming and puking are NOT hip. They are most definately unhip. I do not encourage that behaviour. You see hip is essentially saying the exact right thing and performing the exact right action in every situation. Including drinking. I got no ill will for you if you drink these things, but you definately come across as square, dig?

Maybe square is where you’re at, and that’s cool. Like, um, the wrong cat the wrong frame of mind. Don’t go gettin’ razzled and start turnin’ on your hate machines for me. I’m just spreadin’ the gospel of hip. Dig? I hear squaresville ain’t so bad once you get used to it. They serve Midori, Zima and a plethra of lite beers from what I understand. People get together and sing their Karaoke and drink watered down alchohol and still get to bed in time for the yarn fair Sunday morning.

I thought all american beer was lite. :slight_smile:

Excuse me, can you point me towards a theatre where Shaft is playing?

Try using Midori instead of Triple Sec the next time you make margaritas.

What, you don’t make 'ritas? What the hell is wrong with you?

Alien Secretions is a good drink too. Mmmmmm, neon green…

  1. I thought she meant Stroh’s BEER! Never had the rum. Has to be better than the beer.

  2. There is no such thing as a “Captain Morgan’s MAN!” :wink: That swill is aimed at bored housewives.

  3. A good rum, but one must be real comfortable with his heterosexuality to order it in public.

(Counting on my fingers)

Lemme see…I’ve insulted gays, women, and an ex-Marine in this thread. Par for the course. :wink:

Venoma:

I’d quote you, but I’m working without a mouse until I get all my stuff out of my friend’s apartment. It’s hard to grab text without a damn mouse . . .

I just wanted to say:

Ouch.

I wanted to say it in response to your comment about all American beer being lite.

Ouch.

Budweiser? Is there any finer corporation? Are not these the people who have brought us refreshment at countless barbecues? The people who bring us joy at sporting events? The people who work so hard to give us such good, sweet, tasty, life-giving beer?

Well, maybe not life giving, but daddy still likes. Alas, I fear that the worlds finest beers are foreign. Damn you. I won’t give up my Budweiser!!! Viva La Bud!!! Or something.

DaLovin’Dj

(Knowing that the finest beer in the world is a nice cold Guiness)

Wait, now, is American beer Hip or Not Hip? Since you are The Master of Hip… :rolleyes:

Feel free to check into my new Pit thread all about you, dj! :slight_smile:

God loves you.

Glad you like it. Tell ya what, sweetie, you can have my gin and give me your Midori and we’ll get along just fine. I have some gooood gin, too. :wink:

thinksnow, dammit, now I’m going to have to try to find some Stroh rum. I’ve never heard of the stuff, but you make it sound so tasty!

Demise: no, no, no, no. Gran Marnier is the only way to go. Gran Margaritas, oh yeah.

dalovindj - yeah, y’all are so cute when you’re HIP too. yawn I’m truly astounded you can manage to bear us unhip fools with such grace and charm. Shouldn’t you be getting your homework done, instead of hanging out with all us squares?

redtail:

I hope your not trying to speak for all the other doper’s. Becuase there ARE quite a few hip dopers.

And for the record, I didn’t do homework when I WAS in school. Come to think of it, I do have to get ready for the black crows concert at the Beacon tonight. They rock it pretty hard for old-timers. I’m off as in: That’s it for me tonight. As in: Audi 5000.

DaLovin’ Dj

Sounds like a deal!

(checking profile)

[sub]dammit! no clue as to gender! Just another doper named after a bird!

Speaking of lite American beer - the makers of Molson Canadian have now added a lite beer to their lineup. My fiance said “They should call it ‘Molson American’”. Now THAT’S funny :smiley:

I don’t even know what midori is.

Me, I drink a hard lemonade here and there, just enough to get a very very light buzz. It only takes one.

cackle I like him :wink: 20 points! (or is that pints…)

dalovindj, I admit I got whooshed! (Esprix ain’t the only one) Mebbe it’s cuz I dunno ya. Come to Moncton, NB, and drink some Canadian ale.

We even have our own Bud up here. :smiley:

Imagine you’re at IHOP and they have a new honeydew melon pancake syrup. Except with some alcohol in it.

dalovndj, you are coming across like a frat boy moron here. give it up while youre behind.

Well, this was a thread about Midori.

Having said that, you are sadly, sadly mistaken. Herradura Anejo with Cointreau and fresh squeezed lime and orange juice is the only way to drink a margarita. All others are pretenders.

Word.

[sub]Was that hip? I don’t know, because I’ll like, not hip…and stuff…[/sub]

arrives late, raises an eyebrow

Listen, dj, sweetie, if you can’t handle ice cold vodka shots, you aren’t a real drinker.

Oh, and I don’t drink to get drunk-that is the way of college jerks. I like unflavored vodka-none of this fruity crap for me. Chick drinks? Never got into them. But I’m doing the whole “social drinking” scene, not trying to be so drunk that I pass out and don’t remember whether I had a good time or not.

American beer is piss. Budweiser is worse than piss.
