I like spirits and red wine as they have more taste than the other types i've tried

I hope some day, for some reason, David Duchovny is investigated by the FBI. Because that would make a great story.

Absinthe, currently.

But lager, generally. Or real ale.

It has to be lager really, but spirits can be good on the odd night out.

You have lager but not bitter, which is my preferred choice. Can never go wrong with rum and coke or sweet white wine, tho. Although as said elsewhere, I'll drink anything.

Red wine, champagne, Baileys, Malibu, white wine, certain cocktails or occasionally a pint of Tennants. Red wine probably my favourite though. So in that order.

I don't drink much now though, but although I will never again drink tequila or absinthe, I can drink anything really.

How come you will never drink absinthe again, out of interest?

A few people have said similar things at college, perhaps there is some huge absinthe secret I don't know about, and everyones waiting to have a big laugh at me when I find out.

I had quite a bad experience with it, ask Fi, Jo or Adam So the thought of it is not a good one.

Same goes for tequila, the most drunk I've ever been, when I was rather young, so the taste makes me sick now in memory.

There is only one drink I won't drink. Budweiser. It's the foulest of the foul, spit up from the pit of demons.

And it tastes like p*ss.

Poor John Smith, what did he ever do to you?

Seriously though, I would agree that Carling and Budweiser are both absolute p*ss. I'm more of a Stella man myself, although if I can find a place that serves it, I'll drink a German lager called Erdinger which is lovely stuff.

I cannot hear the word Tequila without starting to sing... It's like an illness.

If there's a lot on your mind it's there to help you forget
To relax and rewind and leave behind the regret
First it makes you well, before you know it it's time
And you're sent to Hell with the salt lemon and lime.
SALT, LEMON AND LIIIIIIME!!

Guinness.. i have tried so many times to like it. It looks so nice. My uncle loves it, my friends love it, hell - even Claire loves it.

Me? I think it tastes like a roast dinner, liquidised, and the aftertaste is indescribable. Yet I keep trying it. One day I'll learn.

And as for absinthe. Well, the thing about that stuff is you really do have to know your limits. It creeps up on you quickly and if you over stop the mark, you will end up in hospital. The same goes for anything really, but with absinthe its something of an unknown quantity for most. A club I go to in town often gets kids in trying it and thinking they can handle it, and it just wrecks them. Maybe not after one, or two shots, but more than that along with their 'normal' drinks, and its problem time. I can fully understand why it is banned in some countries, but having said that, I would disapprove of the ban here. I think there is a national limit of only being served a maximum of two shots in a club or bar, and so long as you're not stupid, you'll be fine. I once had six (might have been seven) shots in one night - this makes me an absolute f*cking idiot. It's not a clever or intelligent thing to do. It doesn't make you better than anyone else, and it certainly doesn't make for a good time, especially along with other drinks as well.

Despite all that, if you haven't tried it - give it a go. It has so much taste and power, it can be a good experience. Just don't be like I was with it.

Same here. I could drink any amount of alcohol and i'll never get up and sing. It's programmed into my head and stands firm regardless of my mental state.

Don't worry son, your current fascination with alcohol will fade. The fact you can still type at all is a good sign, although 8 shots of absinthe is just ridiculous. It will mean death if you insist on fecking with dangerously strong alcohol.

I say this as someone that cares.

You want 12 shots of bacardi and then 6 pints. Don't remember a thing about that hockey social. Never again. I wouldn't have even been able to turn on my computer, let alone log on to VR.

the amount i'm on vr, it's as though it's programmed into my head, and thus impossible to forget.

and i'm still in bed, but if i'm not mistaken, i don't have much of a hangover, which is pretty incredible.

I was going to vote for gin, but I'm in a huff, because I was drinking it last night and everyone kept taking the p*ss, saying it was an "old man's drink"!!

Awww bless.

My current favourite drink is Malbu & coke as said on the other alcohol thread. So Malibu.

And I have decided that vodka is horrible, after burning my throat on shots of it last night (shots really are the quickest way to spend money ever)
