Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Because we grow older, so more of us start testing it, or just get launched into situations where drinking is expected of you. That said, it's a steadily recurring subject, although I suppose we're on a top right now...
Just bread, actually, as the fermentation of beer is done through yeast, not mold.
And to answer your question (on liquors in general): well there are a number of answers, but the most common one is that drinking it makes you happy (roughly speaking), and as such, it's become the drink of choice for joyous occations.Clouddreamer Teddy by me, high above the world, far beyond its matters...

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
I think you're overestimating the size of the thing--the advert on TV with the mummy showed the confectionery fitting on the palm of their hand with plenty of room around the edges; a Chocolate Orange is much bigger than that. I think that's why the Pyramint failed in the end, in fact, because you didn't get enough for your money!

It was also originally marketed as a non-addictive substitute for morphine/laudanum. Obviously, they didn't do enough clinical trials back in the 1800s.
Don't you mean the unassailable bastions of capitalism that vie for control over every part of our consumerism?

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Preaching to the choir, my freind. My discipline is directly porportionate to my care level. Though I have been lucky in that I seem to be able to easily recover with far lower amounts of sleep than is healthy. Still, I generally find the argument that 'you get used to it' doesn't really lessen the levels of suckyness of a situation. I mean...
"Dude! You just shot me in the foot!"
"Eh. You'll get used to the pain."
still hurts, damnit
I... what... but.... YEARGH! sick and wrong! X.xYou ever punched a polarbear for making you miss the buss? It's fun.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
On the topic of work/life/sleep, I spent the weekend staying with my girlfriend. This meant I spent the weekend not doing work. So I now have far too much work to do this week. Also I have a sci-fi society meeting tonight and games night tomorrow, which cuts into my work-time. And I don't get a huge amount of sleep anyway. I should really be working now, but I seem to be on the internet instead

Guys. I saw a badger today. Today was a good day, regardless of all the unnecessary stress I put myself through due to procrastination.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
@LaLa, you are my favorite person now for that.
Holy crap, I honestly had no idea.
They did, when he was younger. He physically fought them, and when forcibly dragged there, he sat under the table refusing to speak. We stopped being able to carry him there once he got older, and there was nothing that he would do there, what was the the point? Instead, the therapy bill went to stress-relief for my parents who had to deal with him, and to me, who had to deal with him and had serious sensory issues as a kid, and then had FDS.
Yes mistress.
Well yes, I know that, it's just, I'd have expected to age levels on the forum to stay about the same as the years pass, so we'd have no more talk about alcohol in one year than compared to the last. But suddenly there's much more mention of it than before.

Re: Mynxae's Maliciously Magnificent Random Banter #183
Ok I need some innuendo.
I have a paper on elementary particles that are probably but not certainly having causal relations, and if they are we don't know what the location or time is. I need a title that could also be read as an innuendo.Hail to the Lord of Death and Destruction!

This is why I hate PETA. I hope Nintendo sues them to Hell and back, they have it coming. They've done a similar thing with Cooking Mama and Mario. Twice for Mario, actually.
