Maybe I'll give that a go during summer. Iv tried oysters and scotch a few times with little success and I really like oysters, but the scotch just isn't enjoyable. At the end of the day something can taste unique like a sour beer that I only want one of but ultimately it must be actually enjoyable too. I just haven't found that to date with hard liquor without mix. On the other hand I can sit and pound rye and coke all night, it's the only time I'll touch pop and if I just drank pop I'd never get by 1 can but I'll drink 3+ with the better part of a bottle of rye or rum.

I'm just going to have to accept I'll never look as cool as the people who can just enjoy something on the rocks. I'll be holding cringes for years to come as my boss offeres fine booze that's in reality only going to waste on my pleb palate.

Try ardbeg single malt.

If I can find it in Canada from a place that will ship or once work travel resumes. I have a fairly significant rum order inbound right now. A few being sipping rums. No real ability to pick and choose though since very few distillerys ship to my remote location. Best I can usualy do is find one and just order one of every bottle, if reasonable to do so.

Bundaberg rum is best, it tastes like burning.

doing matcha tea at the moment
some nice kid binned it for me on the fly

we were standing by the fire, talking and gaining warmth
i mentioned that in my homeland, there is greater food diversity. i mentioned that i missed my japanese tea and he asked me how many grams i would usually bin. i said 30 grams
he said he'll be back in a few minutes
he came back with 50 grams of fresh tea including a special tea stirrer
upstanding young man. would not even take my money. was one of the nicest gifts ever

So I guess you are having to get the shot twice. So like a shot today, then you are supposed to get the 2nd shot sometime in the next couple of weeks. I did something like this a while back when there was Hepatitis B floating around the city.
I work with the public at my job (mostly homeless diablo 2 players that lost their way), and my job asked me if I would like to get the shot. So sometime today I guess I will be driving to the drive-through vaccine place.
The thing that worries me is I hear that some specific types of common medications might negatively impact the quality of the vaccine. Like Tylenol, so what is to say that the 4x IbProphin I took the other night might cause an issue? I guess we won't know until more people get the vaccine and have issues showup.

no such thing

in our hearts. the fallen shall not be forgotten. ever.

i have killed more people with a higher kill to death ratio in the history of the internet
and it does, at times, weigh heavy on my heart
sometimes i feel irredeemable
at other times, i feel successful
and there is no marriage of these ideas there is no melding of one side or the other
but
there can be repent
and there can be goodness going forward. Trump's Love can guide us in that direction

the most ruthless killer in the history of internet gaming is telling you
to go forth in peace. and live Good lives.
