  • Whisk(e)y drinker here, preferring neat. I like all types, especially if they are sherry-finished.

    I like too many for a concise list.

    I think Stranahan’s is the best bottle most people sleep on. It’s a Single Malt made in the US, so most Scotch drinkers dismiss it because “it’s not made in Scotland”, but most American drinkers are looking more for Rye and Bourbon flavors. It’s just delicious imo

    Ardbeg Wee Beastie is another favorite. Peated Scotches aren’t for everyone, but I think it has a great “campfire” quality

    Navazos Palazzi is a Spanish whiskey that we really like, and it’s one i never recommend to beginners. It’s harsh and sweet, but somehow it works. I’ve heard it described as “maple cookie covered in fresh pavement”, although I think it evokes more of that cut up tire that you can find on some playgrounds. It’s basically “fuck you” in a glass, in the best possible way

    For cocktails, i always go for Coke and Makers, with some grenadine.


  • I had to look a list of prequels, since I was having trouble just remembering some.

    • Might not be the greatest, but I remember really liking Rouge One

    • Cruella was a blast, but I could see people arguing that the main character was a completely different person than who was in the 101 Dalmations

    • The Thing (2011) did a good job, with some criticisms (over use of CGI). It was never going to be as great as the original, but I still enjoyed it
