Fiancace picked up absinthe. It tastes like medicine. And not good medicine.
Seijin CC
He hated it so much he was going to pour it down the sink XD So I told him to give it to me and I am having it with my Jasmine tea
Seijin CC
which makes it not taste horrific :V
Seijin CC
but now I've already had to use up a drink of the month ? >> I am going to pretend this is a November drink since I only had 1 then iirc
Seijin CC
Also I want to listen to something happy and fluffy

You do not fuck with the green fairy. the green fairy fucks with you and steals your wallet either after drinking. Or in rare cases, after giving you a good night. THEN it smacks you in the face.
Jaydee
(I'm personally more partial to brown absinthe, though, which is apparently sweeter)
Seijin CC
It was. And he added sugar (LOL)
Seijin CC
It still tastes like medicine
Seijin CC
(thinking)
Seijin CC
If it has a delayed kick I haven't noticed it yet
Eʏʏʏᴍᴏɴᴅ Osᴡᴇʟʟ
I have been curious about absinthe...
BruberryMuffin
I now have the Moulin Rouge soundtrack in my head.
Seijin CC
I had a friend who had some in Germany and he said it packed a kick there but
Seijin CC
(LOL)
Seijin CC
he added it's different stateside
Seijin CC
Gimme rum any day of the week
BruberryMuffin
^
BruberryMuffin
I'm totally a rum girl.
Seijin CC
(drinking) Rum is the best
Seijin CC
And I think it goes in the tea well because it's jasmine
Seijin CC
and it's all herbs and flowers and wormwood and anise and meh
Seijin CC
Apparently it's not sold with thujone stateside so
Seijin CC
fennel
Seijin CC
(eyeroll)
Jaydee
Be careful with the sodding thing! For some people, you feel as if you gained temporary HP and feel on top of the world, in a sober drunkenness.
Jaydee
It happened to me. Once the temporary effects ended after ten minutes, I had an olympic hungover.
Seijin CC
(LOL) Understood
Seijin CC
I've never had a hangover!!!
Jaydee
I don't get hungovers nowadays, but absinthe is... the green fairy. As in, fairy before romanticism, which kidnapped people and did UFO shit.
Seijin CC
I mean I don't drink often either because I promised :V (Native American & alcoholism and just BASIC addiction runs HARD on both sides of my family)
Seijin CC
(LOL)
Seijin CC
I WILL CONCEED
Seijin CC
I don't feel like I usually do upon drinking
Seijin CC
-> which is invincible and watching to write forever
Seijin CC
And I still feel general CFIDS pain
Seijin CC
like muscles :V
Seijin CC
so no chance of me doing something crazy like over-exercise -- which even just steroids can amp me up to XD
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
you inspired me to grab a beer!
Seijin CC
(LOL)
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
but yeah stateside absinthe is ew
Seijin CC
I KIND OF JUST FEEL Hungry and vaguely like rolling around on the floor and being like "I'm a seal :V"
Seijin CC
>>
Jaydee
Hush, you! I promised myself I'd pop open a beer or wine during christmas! Don't tempt me, either of you!
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
you would be a cute seal
Seijin CC
XDDD
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
beer bad!
Seijin CC
THE CUTEST :-D
Seijin CC
Or doing the worm breakdancing -> but muscles hurt so pssh
💀Go, Cubs Go💀

💀Go, Cubs Go💀
no, no breakdancing, CC
Seijin CC
(drinking)
Seijin CC
I'm swaying instead
Seijin CC
Kyle threw more sugar in my absinthe tea
Seijin CC
Lol
Seijin CC
He's like "WHERE DO I GET THESE HARE-BRAINED SCHEMES?!"
Seijin CC
We have regular sugar
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
CHEERS! (drinking)
Seijin CC
He bought sugar cubes because
Seijin CC
absinthe
Seijin CC
(LOL)
Seijin CC
I told him not to!!!
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
xD
Seijin CC
it's not warm enough to melt!
💀Go, Cubs Go💀

Seijin CC

💀Go, Cubs Go💀
I did that in 5th grade
Seijin CC
It seriously tastes like medicine
Seijin CC
fff
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
XD
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
I am sorry your first taste of absinthe was icky
Seijin CC
rofl
Seijin CC
I mean
Seijin CC
I've had REALLY awful seaweed and re-solidified and --
Seijin CC
Point is
Seijin CC
it could be worse XD
Seijin CC
But I don't want to count this as my 2 drinks per month because
Seijin CC
it's cheating
Seijin CC
Oh I feel warm now
Seijin CC
ooooooor the room got warmer
Seijin CC
oops
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
^that is real absinthe.
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
still a cheap version but its real
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
I can't remember the kind we would have in college :|a
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
I think it had a rooster on it?
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
it was French and greenish colored that is what I remember XD
Seijin CC
(LOL)
Seijin CC
It's only 65% proof /judges
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
yeah XD it's cheap
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
but it probably tastes better then the bilge water you had
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
:3
Seijin CC
XD
Seijin CC
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
is that what you had?!
Seijin CC
(LOL) Apparently it's only 60% so hah
Seijin CC
yup
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
you poor thing
Seijin CC
(rofl) Have you had it before?
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
we didn't get past smelling it 8|
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
it smells like pinosol
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
I mean I think we drank it well after the good stuff was gone, but. Yeah, never judge how delicious alcohol tastes after you're drunk XD
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
benefit of living at the border
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
Absinthe isn't illegal in Mexico (evilsmirk)
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
and the drinking age is 18
Seijin CC
lol
Jaydee
Wait. That thing isn't allowed in the US?
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
not until recently
💀Go, Cubs Go💀
and even now they take...something out of it
Seijin CC
^ yeah it's not allowed to have thujone
Seijin CC
and ALL absinthe was banned (from stores/bars) until 2007
Exacerangutan
yeah absinthe legalization was pretty recent
Exacerangutan
.............personally, I'm still skeptical of a lot of modern absinthe stories for a number of reasons, and tend to believe the interpretation that it's like "woo absinthe is soooo crazy" and more "cheap-ass historical absinthe was badly distilled and contained a lot of hazardous impurities." >_>
Exacerangutan
but I haven't done or read any actual scientific studies either way, so
Exacerangutan
in other news, I do not recommend hangovers, my one definite hangover experience was like the flu and a migraine had a baby
Seijin CC
y u p
Seijin CC
AND I have migraines 24/7 alcohol and steroids take the edge off them
Seijin CC
although I cannot fucking imagine anything being worse than a migraine >>
Seijin CC
You're making me think I should down a gallon of water before I sleep
Seijin CC
Seijin CC
.....
Seijin CC
I have so many questions
Seijin CC
Basically 1) I am in permanent hangover.... EXCEPT WHEN I DRINK!?!?!?!? THAT IS JUST
Seijin CC
That can't be right can it
Seijin CC
2) if it's electrolytes (FUNNY STORY Apparently CFIDS means Moosey and I are supposed to drink a lot of gatorade because our body needs more of them)
Seijin CC
OKAY SO Apparently he'd already tried to water it down lmao
Seijin CC
so it was a TEEEEEEEEEEEENY fucking amount anyway like I just looked at the bottle and yeah (LOL)
Seijin CC
Also explains why I didn't feel it
Exacerangutan
yeah I think most preparations involve significant watering down, with absinthe, although I don't claim to be an absinthe pro
Seijin CC
yup that's what he said
Seijin CC
understandable
Seijin CC
because it tasted like fucking medicine even with 5 parts water <- and that was BEFORE I dumped it in my tea (LOL)
Whatson
This is slander. I said I was going to dump my concoction, not the bottle. I also intend to try it again with a proper ratio. I didn't hate it. In fact it smells cool.
Whatson
I bought St. George's because it was a small bottle and recrommended. I wasn't going to buy a 80 dollar bottle of Pernod to try it the first time
