Sometime this weekend, possibly when I was complaining of the Great Hangover I incurred by trying to go drink for drink with [livejournal.com profile] opaljax (who is of Slavic extraction and ex-military besides), a theory was proposed which, if proven correct, would be a simple key to the understanding of the workings of Celtic societies. The theory, proposed by [livejournal.com profile] kittenpants, is this: Whisky makes you competitive.

Also, buttons. I am anticipating the arrival of the button machine some time in the early part of this week. EHQ's output of general snarkiness and giggling should be up for the month of March, accordingly.

Finally, I managed to penetrate to page 209 of The Aforementioned Monster, at which point there is an indication of plot afoot! There are kings and conspiracies and secret alchemical labs, which delights me. The Ceremonial Chucking of the Book at an Unfortunate Object will, therefore, be postponed.

I think [livejournal.com profile] liquidfun would agree on the schnapps comment. I think he can now tolerate the taste of peppermint again, in small amounts. It had something to do with not one, but 2 bottles of peppermint schnapps while a freshman in college.
I guess the only thing I've ever drunk to excess is beer, wine, and mead. None of those seem to have any unusual effects, such as competitiveness, etc. Boring, that's me...

Mmmm. Minty doom.

We had started cataloguing different types of drunkenness the other day and attempting to determine which sorts of alcohol were likely to produce them, from experience and observation. I would posit that cheap yellow beer makes you loud, stout makes you expository, wine makes you gloomy and existential, and mead makes you touchy-feely.

Your mileage may vary.

Incidentally, I'm eating butter rum Life Savers today at a brisk pace, so presumably no permanent damage to my butterscotch facilities was incurred.

From experience and observation

Tequila shots make your clothes fall off.

Erm, never mind.
