Hot as Fuck Friday

I don't care what anyone says, there is nothing like a brandy Old Fashioned on a hot summer day.

If you disagree, you're just a big doo-doo head.
 
Which is why it's a disservice to call it an old fashioned. That would piss me off if I ordered one and got brandy. Bad enough when some idiot tries to schlep jack Daniels to me when I ordered a specific label or from a higher shelf.

That's why there are generally called brandy Old Fashioneds.
 
You girls don't know how to drink.

Mr. Charlie Barens can make me a brandy Old Fashioned any time.

 
Being a southerner, the only way I'll accept an old fashioned is bourbon, sugar (or syrup), bitters, orange peel. I don't really mind a smoked OF, but I prefer the original.

I don't get these places that "want to put our spin" on classic drinks. I once had a bartender shake up an old fashioned. Had another served a sazerac with ice. "It's our take on the classic." Thanks, but this is the South...I'd rather have a real one or else I'll drink somewhere else.

There is a wrong way to consume alcohol...

That's like trying to order a martini these days... Alot of the younger bartenders these days seem to think that when someone orders a "martini", they assume it's vodka.

When I order a martini, I expect "gin" not vodka becuz THAT'S a real MARTINI!! :martini:

First World problems, I guess... :heh:

I don't like Rye whiskey, but that does make a better old fashioned. It's the only way I can stand Rye
 
I fucking hate captcha. Trying to renew my car registration and can get past the “prove you’re a human” bullshit because when you check the box it just spins in a buffering circle. Who fucking cares if a robot renews my registration anyway?
 
Got a nail taken out of my (almost new) tire and it took 74 minutes. Got there 5 minutes before they opened and I was still #8 in line. Tipped the goofy kid and he bumped me up to #3. What kinda racket shit is that?
 
morning morning

heading to Charlottesville, VA today for the weekend. Golf clubs are packed...hopefully I get to break them out while I am there.
Not even gonna make it to 80 here. Rain and storms most of the day

Don't let that dissuade you from getting some boozy ice pops.
 
Don't eat lutefisk and don't like a wisconsin OF, even ones made "correctly"
Yea we used to have lutefisk for Christmas Eve. Luckily that tradition has died
