I went off to write an essay because I'm oh so studious!
I feel sick in the stomach because I ate a bag of strange cheese biscuits off the plane much too fast.

― Elisabeth (Elisabeth), Wednesday, 10 September 2003 12:17 (twenty-three years ago)

Orange - 8

― Elisabeth (Elisabeth), Thursday, 11 September 2003 01:31 (twenty-three years ago)

Make Summer Berry a 6 and don't pay attention to my raspberry rating because I haven't actually tried it. I don't really like raspberry flavour.

― Elisabeth (Elisabeth), Thursday, 11 September 2003 01:32 (twenty-three years ago)

Jarrah chocolatte 6, nice but really a bit too sweet. Like any woman I get my cravings, a nice hot... cuppa usually does the trick... OOH! I drank some! How very saucy!

Andrew have I just not been reading this thread close enough, or have you really never rated yr beloved tomato juice??

― Elisabeth (Elisabeth), Monday, 10 November 2003 05:49 (twenty-two years ago)

TOMATO JUICE A MILLION AND A HALF

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Monday, 10 November 2003 06:13 (twenty-two years ago)

There's this stuff called V-plenish that I quite like. In one little 250ml bottle you get one serving of fruit and one serving of vegetables! That's more than I usually eat in a whole day! It only takes about 10 seconds to drink, and doesn't taste too shabby either. 7/10.

― Minty (Minty), Monday, 10 November 2003 06:23 (twenty-two years ago)

That's a lot like V8, I think. I love them both too, 8/10.

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Monday, 10 November 2003 06:25 (twenty-two years ago)

Guiness - 9
Moxie - 4 (It will always taste like asprin to me)
Earl Grey Tea - 3 (I was so disappointed, I found the aftertaste to be like disinfectant)
Chamomile Tea - 9
Budweiser - 8 (The king of cheap beers... I would take this over Miller or Coors any day)
Bloody Mary - 8 (mmmmm)
Cranberry Juice - 7 (always refreshing)
Grape Juice - 6 (sweet, but I got sick of it fast)
Penfolds Shiraz - 10 (fucking yum)

It's Singha, ed, and it *is* pretty good.

― oops (Oops), Tuesday, 11 November 2003 00:42 (twenty-two years ago)

and everybody knows Schaeffer is the king of cheap beers, dan! That or Olympia.

― oops (Oops), Tuesday, 11 November 2003 00:43 (twenty-two years ago)

Has anyone tried that tropical sprite?? I saw an ad for it on TV, I wonder if there'll be another sort of cherry drink sometime soon.

― Elisabeth (Elisabeth), Tuesday, 11 November 2003 04:15 (twenty-two years ago)

I just got some L&P Dry, it's pretty cool. 7.

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Tuesday, 11 November 2003 04:34 (twenty-two years ago)

― ducklingmonster, Tuesday, 11 November 2003 07:10 (twenty-two years ago)

Hmm... imma gonna stick with Budweiser for my own tastes... although Pabst is good when I feel like punishing myself.

― The Man they call Dan (The Man they call Dan), Tuesday, 11 November 2003 07:33 (twenty-two years ago)

bud is disgusting, how can anyone drink it?

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Tuesday, 11 November 2003 07:48 (twenty-two years ago)

Guided by Voices? Was that the one Andrew?

― Elisabeth (Elisabeth), Tuesday, 11 November 2003 23:08 (twenty-two years ago)

I also need to know what the flavour of Doctor Pepper is. I'm not sure I want to spend $2 on a can of it.

― Elisabeth (Elisabeth), Tuesday, 11 November 2003 23:11 (twenty-two years ago)

Dr. Pepper is great! I have no idea how to describe the taste.
Also: banana milkshakes: 10

― oops (Oops), Wednesday, 12 November 2003 03:50 (twenty-two years ago)

I always figured Dr Pepper was sarsparilla flavour. Well, you know how banana flavour doesn't really taste like bananas? Well like that, but sarsparilla. It's good, anyway.

― Minty (Minty), Wednesday, 12 November 2003 05:08 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah I've had had I think six bottles of Budweiser ever, one w/an American boyfriend my cousin had, we were moving my Uncle's stuff into his new flat and he gave me one (I was 15, I thought maybe it WAS the King of Beers). Then much later I was really drunk at the Guided By Voices show, moving the monitors around and annoying the roadies, and Bob Pollard gave me a couple from the GBV chillybin and ruffled my hair. Then afterwards the guitarist gave he his justopened one. And THEN I left, but somehow (I really don't know how) got back in, for a start, then up the stage and to the backstage room up a long stairway, where I had I guess a couple more that I don't remember, talked to a pretty much literally paralytic Bob, and got passed joints which I forgot to do anything about till someone said "um, could I have one of those?" Then I left and fell all the way down the stairs, laughing. As were they. I had some more Bud at Cafe 223 when they had them for $5, I thought it'd be funny to act American, despite the yeastiness. It was! To me. The Revengers were playing.

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Wednesday, 12 November 2003 13:09 (twenty-two years ago)

omg bob ruffled your hair?? wow

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Wednesday, 12 November 2003 21:41 (twenty-two years ago)

Yeah, it was pretty funny.

― Andrew Thames (Andrew Thames), Thursday, 13 November 2003 04:59 (twenty-two years ago)

i used to think beer was the shit, and hated gin. now i love gin and hate beer. does this mean i'm a grandma?

― The Lady Ms Lurex (lucylurex), Thursday, 13 November 2003 07:38 (twenty-two years ago)
