Ain't no one around to hate in the basement. Just me and my jug.

I'm a juggalo at heart

Usually we see the problem of cleaning products that look too much like food products, this is the first time I've seen the opposite though

Not even that cheap actually. $10/750ml is on the very low end, but it's not actually shocking.

I'm beer, wine, whiskey, and gin in that order.

Apparently I'm happy with myself and my alcohol choice comes down to how fucking dumb you cunts were that day.

Beer is way too low on both axis lol

Bear belongs just left of appletini, and vodka with mango juice belongs where beer is.

Vodka straight? Probably a healthy hatred for self and others. Mixed with juice? Now that person knows how to live a happy ass life.

Seriously, if you've a bad drinking habit, vodka and mango juice. You'll crave alcohol less, you're hangovers will be barely noticeable and pleasant, tastes great, is better for you than beers or rum and soda. Plus people will think you're classy AF once you've learned to make a bunch of simple and pleasant cocktails.

Don't waste your time with any of that dirty shit like Smirnoff. Buy something clean like Reyka or don't bother.

Beer should be differentiated; certain beer drinkers are WAY higher on the "hatred for others" axis.

I'm tryna get box beer

The only box beer I've ever seen was from rodenbach. Do any others exist?

I’ve never heard of box beer and am super curious, can you link what you’re referencing? I’m not finding anything googling “rodenbach box beer”.

You couldn't really do that with beer, because beer is typically carbonated and thus you'll need a very strong bag inside of the box. So strong that you'll end up with a can or bottle.

I wonder why nobody's tried fermenting hallucinogenic mushrooms and fungi into drinks

Would be hilarious to see someone try to turn that shit into an energy drink

Because they don't taste good and fermented mushrooms have an off-putting texture? I like the flavor of most edible mushrooms but the psylosibe are not tasty.

Microdosing is something I'd really like to try though, it probably WOULD be a really nice energy drink, something that just opened you and woke you just a little not bash you over the head psychedelic.

You could probably juje it up with some complimenting flavors and textures,

So not a drink straight from the crop like beer or wine, but maybe a mix drink?

They sorta tried with absinthe

Part of me assumes the active chemicals possibly get broken down during fermentation too,

Psilocybin degrades in the presence of water and heat. It's a pretty delicate compound. Pasteurization would destroy it from the outset and even if methods were developed to preserve its potency, it wouldn't be psychoactive within a few days. People do make alcohol extracts of magic mushrooms that are (allegedly, haven't done it myself) fairly shelf stable. So there may be some room to play with that. But booze and psilocybin are antagonistic so if.youre trying to trip and get drunk from the same source, you'll either wayyyy overdo the psilocybin or get so drunk it reduces the effects of your trip

Oh I didn't mean mixing it into alcohol I meant developing the psilocybin as an alternative fermentative product to alcohol. It seems that psilocybin doesn't quite work that way though from what you and others are telling me.

Ah, gotcha. Like a kombucha sorta deal? Psilocybin would be a pretty bad alternative to alcohol haha, very different experiences. Though there are a lot of alternatives out there that are easier on the body. Kava, kratom and amanita muscaria come to mind. They can all be brewed and have a long history of use for intoxication.

Amanita is a bit contentious (it's either slightly less or just as toxic as alcohol) but it is a fungi that is brewed into tea. Not really fermented but it'd be easy enough to carbonate if one were so inclined for that acidic edge. If it's something you're interested in, check out a kava bar sometime if you have one nearby. They usually serve kava, kratom, and sometimes CBD/THC depending on your area

"Looking over my bottle of captain morgan" ya

Cap'n Morgan is a privateer, not a pirate.

The difference is Morgan did it officially for a country, not to ransack loot from whoever.

The darker the swill, the darker the seas you sail. Hate yourself better and fight the Kraken with your face.

Rum featuring a pirate: a healthy dose of hatred for both self and others

Based on this graph and the liquors I enjoy, I can see I hate others more than I hate myself. I already knew this dammit

Jeez, does this person ever drink water? Might clear things up a bit.

~PSA from hydrohomies

I only ever drink tequila and do not hate myself at all

What does hatred for others here mean? Is it how much drinking the beverage defies social norms or is it how much alcohol the beverage contains?

Probably just related to famous authors with dark world views drinking Gin. Though, I'd say Absinthe should then be up there as well.

Why does the vodka container matter that much? Is there a chemical reaction that would make it poisonous?

No, not poisonous. It's the about the quantity and quality. Large quantities of the cheapest vodka you can get usually means that you are a hardcore alcoholic or you are on a serious mission to get as blasted as you possibly can in as short of a time as you can.

Not many people but large jugs of cheap vodka because they like the taste. (Some do, though.)

I didn't think so but it can affect flavor and probably leech some chemicals out of plastic.
