Jack Squat's Justlessly Juxtaposed Random Banter #101

[Thes Hunter]

My khaula has too much mud slide in it.

[Shadow]

I have a recipe for home made khalua.
It starts with Smirnoff 100. None of that 30 proof crap for me.
And it's actually pretty damn easy to make.

[Thes Hunter]

Ok, I'm curious.....


how do you make homemade Khaula... without it being vodka and coffee?

[Nychta]

Oh my gods, I am in love with wikiHow.

I have learnt: How to Act English, How to take a Shower, How to Sell Gum at School, How to Talk like a Pirate, and how to Flash on Runescape.

I also mocked the How to Act English article on my blog.

wikiHow is my new way of life.

I make it in large batches, but you can slim down the recipe if you want to make, say, a single bottle.

*Boil 5 cups of water with 3 pounds of sugar, creating simple syrup.
*Boil another 4 cups of water with 1.5 ounces of vanilla, 2 tablespoons of chocolate syrup and 12 tablespoons of instant coffee (but it's can't be freeze dried instant). This is your flavoring mix.
*Combine both of these with a bottle of vodka. I prefer Smirnoff 100 because it's fairly inexpensive, but still good enough considering it doesn't have to be fantastic.
*Once cool, pour the contents into a large jug.
*Shake the jug vigorously every day for one month.

After this month of aging, it's ready to drink. It's actually ready to drink without this month of aging, but it tastes better after aging a bit.

Enjoy!

I sometimes use 2 bottles of vodka, or sometimes grain alcohol.

[Nychta]

I have to ask. What happens if you don't shake the jug?

Yep, wikiHow is totally kickin'. I personally like the articles about sneaking around at night...

[Shadow]

If it's not shaken it can begin to separate. Once it's aged enough that doesn't happen anymore.
Not sure why...?

The cap on the jug will be extremely hard to get off the first time. The sugar in the mixture seals it off pretty well.
Get a big strong guy to open it for ya!

[Sneak]

Ah, yes...wikiHow.

It has taught me so many great and useful things. Like, for example, How to Be a Sex Kitten Like Brigitte Bardot.

Oh wikiHow, what would I do without you?

[Nychta]

Oh gods, I have to read that one.

Thanks! Oh, and, you know, you could just use rubber gloves. If I wear rubber gloves I can open pretty much anything.

In other news, I think I just found pretty much everyone's blogs. And all I did was click on one person's sig link.

Huh.

[Shadow]

Trust me. Rubber gloves aren't going to do it. I'm a fairly strong guy and I have a hard time opening it the first time.
The syrup-like nature, mixed with the shaking, and allowed a full month to set....
It's like you super-glued the cap on.

[Supagoof]

Actually Shadow I just snuck into your residence and pulled a practical joke on you. Your cap was in fact super-glued on.

[Jibar]

I read that as koala, so it me both very happy and very confused.

[Nychta]

Heh, what a coincidence.
But what Shadow says still makes sense. And now I want to try it, though it may be a little tricky convincing my parents, as I'm underage for drinking.

"Can I have some vodka please?"
"...What for?"
"I'm testing the rubber gloves!"

[Thes Hunter]

On iChat an UnNamed Mod says: "Shadow just told you to shake your jugs daily "


My reply was along the lines of: "Um, he told me to shake some jugs, not necessarily mine. But I am sure Indurain would."

[dish]

So, if I understand this correctly, Thes is saying that Indurain wants to shake her jugs?

Shadow, this is a fascinating recipe, but I doubt I'd be able to keep hold of a bottle of Kahlua unopened for a month, and thus...I'm just going to carry on buying them.

[Player_Zero]

I read that as koala too...

Heh. 'How to act English'.

I wonder if anyone has seriously used that...

I'm going to follow all the instructions tomorrow and see if my friends (who have read the blog) notice. Then you will have your answer.


No, seriously.

Does WikiHow have the same bias as most of the DIY self-help sites I've found have, i.e. being based on how things are in the U.S.?

(toilet lid, still attached to flushing mechanism, perched atop toilet lid--peering into the tank with puzzlement)

Yes, another one started malfunctioning, and this particular make hasn't shown up on any site to date. Replacement valve I can buy, but for a side-mounted valve and water supply, which this one ain't. . .

Yes. It does have that bias. It assumes that gum is popular at school, that my locker is tall, and that I want to be a cheerleader.
But toilets, I believe, are universal. Broken ones are universally painful. Good luck.

[Player_Zero]

Hmm... Wonder if I could act faux-English too. Act so well that people think I'm acting English. Might be fun...

Ahh screw it. Too much hassle for a mediocre joke.

Also, I'm tired.

[randman22222]

I want a Sheffield accent. Just 'cause of the Arctic Monkeys.

...Those guys are awesome...

[DraPrime]

May I recommend sleep PZ?

[Player_Zero]

I've been up, like, four hours...

Maybe if I found something interesting to do I'd have a bit more energy.

[Nychta]

May I recommend sleep PZ?

I reccomend caffine.

[DraPrime]

You need something interesting to do? Why does this situation seem so familiar to me?

[Thufir]

Differential equations? They worked pretty well for me when I had early morning lectures. Though that was partly also due to the awesome lecturer.

[DraPrime]

I reccomend caffine.

Injected straight into the bloodstream?

[Volug]

I never drink Caffine =\

[DraPrime]

Not even in sodas like coke?
