    Well, yeah. But the only shit they sold at supermarkets [where it was available to thieving little 14 year old drunkards] was half-proof... diluted, 42 proof shite.

    Even the full proof is pretty terrible.

    it is so sweet, imo.

    it comes off to me as like.. really really sweet mead with a hint of whiskey taste. it is so disgusting.

    i like mead though.

    "it's all right....takes me one step closer to the door"

    For those of you who may not understand TM's posts, in Ohio, they sell watered down booze in grocery stores. I that's the only state where I have been where they do that.

    Southern Comfort - Janis Joplin's personal favorite, I've read. Also - that the booze was going to kill her if the smack hadn't. :cheers2: But, it is questioned if she was "set-up" with too strong H after her rehab stint. Ah well, I digress.

    I have drunk Southern Comfort, and I would rather gather all the pancake syrup in the house and stir in strong cough syrup and drink That than drink SoCo again.:D

    yeah, maximum 21.5%ABV, iirc. i dont know, i never buy it at the grocery.

    this is just fine if youre getting a weak liqueur like baileys or something, or premade margarita mix. but anything above the designated level must be diluted. most good quality companies don't do it.

    and once in a while you'll see a large grocery store, like a newer kroger, with a seperate, state licensed liquor store within it, a seperate room in the middle with its own cashier, and you have to pay for it there before going back to the rest of the store. these are rare. i've only been to one, used to go there all the time.

    i live in indiana now for school. its kind of a trip to see real liquor in the grocery....always confuses me for a second.

    anyway, the grocery version of SOCO is more than 1/2 proof, but not that much more. SOCO is only 35% ABV to begin with, and this stuff is 21% or 21.5% or something.

    liquor that tastes lousy and is low quality

    also known as paramount vodka, budweiser, old crow whiskey, bacardi silver (and the vast majority of bacardi products), miller lite, hurricane high gravity lager, sparks, boones farm, wild irish rose, md 20/20

    i guess not necessarily liquor.

    I believe I've only had it mixed with Powerade. In which case, it was alright.

    hell no. and i never said i never drink lousy booze, either.

    but often, yeah.

    if someone asks "whats bad booze" why would quality NOT be an issue? quality is THE issue. fuck price.

    i've had bottom and middle shelf vodkas that beat the hell out of grey goose. that shit tastes like rubbing alcohol.

    One time I drank Grey Goose. I can't tell you what it tasted like, or how much I had, because by the time we were on that, it was indeed like pouring water down a hole. I was so trashed that night...I still have that bottle, but the smell of the stuff sends me back to cleaning up my puke with the worst hangover of my life. :D
