Energy Drinks

Anyone else really into these things?

A couple of years ago I would say I averaged about maybe 1 or 2 a quarter. With the exception of the Shamrock Run of '05 when myself and the Tough Guy decided to just start pounding these things at Molly McGuire's (Vinny-is my memory right, the place next door to the former pizza bar?) It's not a one a day habit but its probably about once a week sometimes as many as two or three times.

I don't have a favorite so to speak. It's usually whatever is on sale at the grocery store or the cheapest wherever I'm at. Recently it's been either the Rockstar Low Carb or Sugar Free. Haven't had a Red Bull in awhile though.

As soon as they put the Coke back in Coke that will be my favorite.

Nuff said.

Sounds like you go out drinking with Losman... Rim.

Which leads me to my next post in the pet peeve thread.

The bar you spoke of is indeed Molly McGuires. Unless you bring your own, the Red Bull in a Vodka Red Bull (are they called RBVs everywhere or just South Buffalo?) is a generic version of the wing-giving drink. I call it W Red Bull, as in the Wegmans brand of pops. Dr. Pepper is Dr. W, 7-Up is W-Up, and so forth. I'm clever. I don't touch those RBVs because I enjoy beer.

As for the pizza bar, rumor has it that it will open again under new management. That rumor's been around since the place's unexpected closing due to cocaine, an underage pregnancy, bankruptcy, all of the above or none of the above. I think it's a combination of all three and the bankrupt owner got a coked up seventeen year old pregnant.

Cocaine was everywhere in that place, and maybe that's why I saw Shooter McGavin there. He had on red shorts with a white golf glove hanging out of the back pocket. That was a great day. I didn't talk to him, I just laughed and pointed. I think I called everyone telling them Shooter was at the pizza bar.

One of the bartenders got fired when the owner went in at 8:30 am and found him passed out on the floor behind the bar. He was sleeping in a giant puddle of beer, and the cash register was open and empty. Now he tends bar at 67 West.

Anyway, just say no to Red Bull Vodker.

those drinks are painful. One night before a bonnies bball game me and a house mate decided to do a shit load of red bull and vodkas to pregame. Only problem was we were poor college kids who can shell out 2 bucks for a can of red bull. So off to aldi's we went. Picked up several cases of "RED THUNDER" and over to on the corner for some popov vodka. I believe we started around 1 or 2 o clock for a 7pm game. We were shitfaced and proud our stingy purchases tasted somewhat like red bull vodkas. . .that was until the next morning. We must have got so zootfaced we didn't realize how bad RED THUNDER is. It's like drinking chalk. . .extreme mud butt and cold sweats included.

Here's a few drinks for the holidays!!

THANKSTINI
1 part Vodka
2 parts Cranberry juice
1 Boullion Cube (chicken)

A real centerpiece for your T-day spread, the Thankstini will parade down your esophagus like turkeys to the slaughter.

THE LONG WINTER'S NAP
1 bottle Rye Whiskey
1 bottle Children's Formula Cough Syrup

Liberally spike the bottle of whiskey with the cough syrup and count your visiting relatives like sheep as you drift into a holiday hibernation of contentment.

ARBOR DAZE
1 part Gin
1 Tree-Shaped Car Freshener

Salute our tall, wooden friends on the last April Friday with a classy tumbler filled to the brim with dry gin and stirred with your choice of car fresheners. I recommend grabbing an assortment at your local car-wash and trying out several "shades," though I find the vanillaroma and new-car the most tree-licious.

THE CHRISTMAS HAM
1 part Bourbon
1 Tbsp. Brown Sugar
1 jar Bacon Bits

Garnish this drink with a pineapple ring and enjoy all the flavor of a Christmas ham, with half the calories, and 1/20th the preparation time, allowing you more time to unwrap any tasty presents dear Santa has left you under the tree.

RAMADAN AND COKE
1 part Rum
2 parts Cola (or "Pop," if you're retarded)

Celebrate the third pillar of Islam and practice self-control with a delicious R and C. Mix conservatively as daytime fasting, while providing more bang for your alcoholic buck, might have you praying towards Mecca sooner than you know it.

INDEPENDENCE DAY JUICE
1 part Cinnamon Schnapps
1 part Milk
1 part Curacao
1 package Sparklers

Shoot this spangled shot and avoid talking shop at your next 4th of July barbecue. NOTE: Place sparklers outside rim of shotglass.

Not sure. Some stores have phones in the ailes that you can use to paige someone over the loudspeaker. Like that ones at Kmart that me and my buddy used to fart into.
