My stomach turns when I think of the smell of bourbon...which is oftentimes also the smell of my grandmother's breath.

Being around (rather abusive) drunken grandparents when I was little has left me with a permanent aversion to alcohol, drunkeness, and drunk people.

Yeah - that would do it.

My grandparents were alcholics/big partiers....my mom and her siblings have awful stories of their upbringings...

By the time I came around they'd calmed down a bit - though I do remember lots of drunken poolside parties and such...I just thought my grandparents were funner than the average grandparents...now I look back and damn..they were just hard core...they're paying for it all now though in their old age

Fun is the last word to use to describe my grandmother. If she'd been a fun drunk, maybe it wouldn't have been so bad. She was more of a "hide in the bathroom with a bottle of Old Crow and a handful of muscle relaxers" kind of a drunk.

Then she'd come out, try to eat something, and nearly choke on it because she'd taken so many muscle relaxers that she couldn't swallow.

That's me with Gin, and also peppermint schnapps. I got a little too sick on both.
Favorite liquor- Rum, plain or vanilla, with coke, sprite, or cran.
Vodka- good utility liquor. Good for spiking up anything. I make my homeade version of mudslides at home. Ice cream, vodka, chocolate syrup, and a little kahlua. Mmmmm.
Beer. I've drank beer my whole life(and still do, when I'm out, cuz it's cheap, and I'm more able to monitor my buzz, in order to......get home). But beer's just to bloaty for me anymore. I don't enjoy it as much as I used to.
At home, wine is fine, all the time. Reds only.
Whiskey, I've never been much on. It REALLY does give you a ****ty attitude, and I'm strictly a fun drunk(kicking ass at pool, and "trying" to make everyone laugh), so whiskey's not on my menu.
I will be drinking Beck's dark tonight, as I'm working, and that's the best import they will give us. Free alcohol rulez.

Exclamation The next time I drink...

or feel the urge to, I will try a "Black Tooth Grin" which is Coca-Cola mixed with Crown Royal...Good tastin' **** from what I here.

The world is very lucky that when I do drink I become a "happy drunk" instead of a "violent drunk".

Confession time: When I first read your post, I read it as [i]"...Coca-Cola mixed with Royal Crown...". I thought, why mix cola brands?
