VN Ren'Py Grandma's House [Part 5 v0.70] [Moonbox]

Would you differentiate, when recounting the night to friends, if you drank some bourbon + some rye on a night out? IDK how things are done, in America.
Over here, in England, most people I know wouldn't, because they're all just US whiskey.
We would, however, differentiate drinking Scotch whisky, from bourbon (even while called whiskey).

All I know, is that Rye is a place close to McLean's hometown & The Levee was a bar in his hometown.
So it makes sense, to me, for him to be singing about a time when the bar was dry, so they drove to a neighbouring area where they had booze.

Edit: Just read that, much like rye's 51%, bourbon has the same req for 51% corn mash & it has to be aged in new charred oak barrels.
Both seem to have specific things that must be met, in order to earn the name.

Why would I need to? Only friends that I have, would've been out with me and we all know what each other drinks. I personally drink Jameson. Anyway, no need to recant what we would already know. Most of us don't even go out anymore. Too old for a night out and our significant others probably wouldn't appreciate it.

lol Too true. Fortunately had plenty of good nights out when younger, but as I got older the consequences seemed to mount up.
Can't remember when the scales tipped, but the negative far outweighs the positive now, for me.

Usually around the 25 year old mark. Sort of the mark when people mature in adulthood as it were. University days behind them and all that. Your body can't metabolise things as efficiently, especially your liver, things like Alcohol that it could when you were 21. Basically prior to 25 you are still growing, and maturing, physically. 25 and beyond you start to slowly age. So that is when the negatives start to outweigh things.

lol was definitely later than 25, for me.
I was in Ibiza for my 30th, still clubbing until sunrise.
Wasn't long after that, though.
You don't wanna reach the point where you're the oldest guy in a club. That's sad.

Ibiza at 30? Sheesh. Must have felt like going to a kids birthday party as a parent lol.

I concur.

From 16 to 25, I may have spent 10 or so nights at home. Never mind school or work, I HAD to go out. I never was much of a drinker tho. So maybe a couple beers a night. It was mostly for the laughs and the conversations and the friendships.

Then, I started to date seriously, became a father, got married and I have been almost a recluse ever since. It may be or not a coincidence that meanwhile the Internet happened. ::grins::

Peace

Nah, Space, Amnesia, Pacha, all quality. People of all ages, house music wasn't a particularly ageist scene, moreso over there.
We saw people who were older than I am now dropping pills & dancing, off their tits.
We're talking 20+ years back.

Ibiza 20 years ago? Oh lord.

Givin' it large!

Same. Uni was the best time for it. Then after uni, it was strictly on the weekends. Gave that shit up when I hit 34. Now, I occasionally have a shot or two after work at home. Just not a huge drinker anymore.

Ha ha ha, brilliant!
Couple of years earlier, just when the UK Garage scene was starting to get big.
Quite possibly the messiest fortnight of my life.

Same as that mate, roughly the same age, too.
I have the odd Islay single malt, don't mind a Tanqueray & tonic, in the summer.
But pretty rare that I do.

After I finished Uni I went on an 18-30 holiday thing to Tenerife. All I will say is I made some real questionable dalliance choices whilst under the influence, shall we say? When I got home I elected to cut back on drinking. Probably for the best!

Me being dragged to a thread I've never been before for some reason:

Sorry. I'd quoted you for an intended Eternum post then forgot it was in my quote. My error!

You know, from what I've seen of Dragon59's humor, that wouldn't surprise me ... however I would expect the reference to make more sense. Maybe.

And sometimes, I just make errors in quoting. I'm so focused on my intended comment, I don't notice an older quote came along for the ride.

 

[Dragon59]

It even says so on the label of the bottle...

OUCH! If my daughter had encountered that, she'd be in the midst of a seizure already.

Which was actually my initial assumption. That comment followed a Dorfnutter supposition that you'd dragged him here on purpose

After all this crap about booze, I have to have a shot. So cheers.

This is what these kids have to look forward to. The 'Boring Years' as I would've said back in my uni days. But now, I call it my 'Safe Years'. Youngsters won't understand that.
