I thought you were a man of culture... You would refuse a good wine just because of temperature?:oops: Personally, I'm rather fond of mulled wine.:)
I am a man of culture. French culture. We know our wine and our women :p

Yes, but are you a fan of muffed wine?

What am I asking, of course you are.
You magnificent bastard! You beat me to it!

I actually feed women to my wine. Virgin corpses make for a great fertilizer.
That reminds me of that old debate about sacrifices to the gods and whether they sacrificed virgins cause they were special or the argument they sacrificed virgins actually since they were worth least, since they had not proven themselves yet as being able to bear children and were only a burden.

I am no bastard! Wait, actually, I am. Never mind.

Disclaimer: I do not like grape wine. It all tastes like vinegar to me. Mead? Yes (and the drier the better)! Dandelion wine? Yes, (if it's not over-sweet). Berry wines? Okay, fine. Grape wines? :sick: I cannot distinguish between good wine, bad wine, and vinegar (unless it's balsamic) - it all tastes like the same thing. Fine to cook with, but I can't drink it.

You know, sometimes, I ask myself: "How did we go from a sci-fi porn game about a faulty station on an unknown planet to virgin sacrifices and angry gods". And then, I remember. Notty. It's her fault. She is *not* innocent. I'm guessing she's the goddess here and our time and... "tears"... are her sacrificial needs!

No mention of grandfathers' secret Birch Wine recipe?

Well, as a wine connoisseur, I could just say that you simply never had good wine, but as a not-drinking-anymore Frenchman, I would just say "meh". Best wine is the white one I use to cook blanquette de veau (nothing like omelette du fromage). Actually, scratch that. Best wine is the one Becca would serve me from the bottle she kept just at body temperature ;)

Huitie, when you mention Notty as the goddess, do not forget Becca, the Prophet and Avatar of Her Holiness Here in The Web, Lust Be Upon Her.

We'll turn you into a proper priest of the cult of ACIO soon!

Have you ever notice how the word Avatar seems to be a portmanteau for Ava and Tar(t) :unsure:
"Beccava" is out, in comes Avatart!

You say I've "never had good wine." I've heard that line too many times. Before tasting some foul $20 to $40 per glass vinegar. Or worse yet, some sweet dessert vinegar. I see a $400 bottle of red and think "Yeah, that'd work for boeuf bourguignon." :LOL:

Well it should but most 20 USD bottles will do as well for that:)
