I'm not sure what makes me want to be sick more, this (or Pernod) or tequila.

― Nick Southall (Nick Southall), Monday, 1 December 2003 19:12 (twenty-one years ago)

YES (to db)

apparently it is fermented in the radiators of Athens by bored waiters in the winter low season.

― Paul Kelly, Tuesday, 2 December 2003 10:56 (twenty-one years ago)

This is a good thing, surely.

i remember i got drunk on ouzo, and told my then girlfriend she was "difficult". we broke up shortly after!

it tastes like licquorice (in other words, it's pretty vile)

Mudhoney - "Mudride"

I got a mouth full of dirt
A hand full of charms
Got a rusty old spade
Don't care who I harm

Take you down to the dirt
Drag you through the mud
Drag you through the mud

Got a trip for two on a one-way ride
I'll take you anywhere, there's no place to hide
Oh

I got a belly full of ouzo
A head full of hurt
I'll be digging your treasure, baby
See what I unearth

Take you down to the dirt
Drag you through the mud
Drag you through the mud
Drag you through the mud

Got a trip for two on a one-way ride
I'll take you anywhere, there's no place to hide

You've seen better days
Before you saw me
That's lost in a haze
You've got nowhere to be

Take you down to the dirt
Drag you through the mud
Drag you through the mud
Dray you through the mud

Got a trip for two on a one-way ride
I'll take you anywhere, there's no place to hide
I've got a trip for two on a one-way ride
Watch your world collapse as our worlds collide
Got a trip for two on a one-way ride
Take you anywhere, there's no place to hide
Oh

Citron is nicer than ouzo.

― Tag (Tag), Tuesday, 2 December 2003 22:25 (twenty-one years ago)

tar is nicer than ouzo.

My grandfather took me out to eat at a Greek restaurant when we were in Halifax and INSISTED that I get wasted with him on ouzo. It ruled.

Fuck that shit! Retsina!!!

― nickn (nickn), Wednesday, 3 December 2003 01:49 (twenty-one years ago)

ouzo's k-ok.
grappa, on the other hand...

― t\'\'t (t\'\'t), Wednesday, 3 December 2003 03:17 (twenty-one years ago)

tar is nicer than ouzo.

So is smacking your head against the wall.

my friend brought tar booze back from finland, it was good

― s1utsky (slutsky), Wednesday, 3 December 2003 03:22 (twenty-one years ago)

my father in law and all his friends were rebuked by the caterer at my wedding for smuggling Ouzo in (it was on public grounds and no hard liquor was allowed). They drank it in the corner when he wasn't looking.

― anthony kyle monday (akmonday), Wednesday, 3 December 2003 04:19 (twenty-one years ago)

oh god, i forgot about grappa

― mark p (Mark P), Wednesday, 3 December 2003 04:35 (twenty-one years ago)

grappa is great! It's not the tastiest, but the buzz is warm and fuzzy and eventually hallucinagenic.

― BrianB, Wednesday, 3 December 2003 04:48 (twenty-one years ago)

grappa is really really good, what's wrong with you guys. my friends lost their grappa this year due to fucking it up by putting in some dodgy dregs from the grapes. :( they made a really good infusion with pears a few years ago

i recently ordered a shot of grappa at a restaurant and the waitress started making jokes about how it was going to "clear out the ol system" which seemed odd to me, i'd never heard that. i just like it

― ron (ron), Wednesday, 3 December 2003 05:57 (twenty-one years ago)

arrak is better than ouzo.

― MarkH (MarkH), Wednesday, 3 December 2003 11:43 (twenty-one years ago)

one year passes...

reviving just to compete with the Ozu thread.

― donut debonair (donut), Monday, 7 March 2005 04:25 (twenty years ago)

I seem to recall going to a Greek restaurant in downtown Detroit that was famous for its dangerous ouzo flames.

― Ken L (Ken L), Monday, 7 March 2005 04:28 (twenty years ago)

I gave Ned Raggett Ouzo last night!

― Remy (null) (x Jeremy), Monday, 7 March 2005 04:30 (twenty years ago)

hepetitis, too

― Remy (null) (x Jeremy), Monday, 7 March 2005 04:31 (twenty years ago)

O'PA!

― Philoctetes, Monday, 7 March 2005 04:33 (twenty years ago)

I do not understand the urge to spice perfectly good Everclear with the foulness that is anise. Pernod, Raki, Ouzo... it's all just awful. Tastes like a hairy foot.

― sunburned and snowblind (kenan), Monday, 7 March 2005 05:22 (twenty years ago)

six years pass...

OUZO TIME

― aka best bum of the o_O's (Noodle Vague), Thursday, 9 June 2011 15:14 (thirteen years ago)

I gave Ned Raggett Ouzo last night!

Which requires me to ask, do either of you recall this night?

― Aimless, Monday, 16 January 2012 02:40 (thirteen years ago)

still waiting...

― Aimless, Monday, 16 January 2012 17:37 (thirteen years ago)
