A cheap drunk, there are guys in bars always searching for one of those

 

Even after 3 weeks of no sauce still took near on half a bottle to get me tipsey. I'm not so lightweight after all. No heavyweight either. Ozzy probably has a 2 bottles a night. Not beer but JD.  😊

I'm having my first drinks this Friday after 3 weeks off it. It's not been hard. I feel better for it. Also will make getting drunk a bit cheaper I'm hoping. Just the smell ought to do it now😂

Finally the revolting- shadow at the world's end t shirt arrived. 

It was worth the wait and print quality is amazing.  transcending obscurity records stuff always takes a long time to ship in my experience.

I love finding out that someone I didn't expect to like metal actually enjoys it - it's very rare in my circle, as most people just listen to pop or hip hop or classical music.

When I hear just the name of those genres I just think oh nooooooooooo!!!!!!! When I listen it's mostly head in hands time or snooze time🥱. You could say I'm not connected to those type of music. There's some bits I like of those genres but on the whole I'd rather not listen.

We lived on the south fork for a while, wound up in Sag Harbor (in the cheap seats), eventually moved to Shelter Island. This was all mid to late 80s. First time I ever felt at home or lived anywhere longer than a year, and I still miss it. My wife and I used to go out on LI a little bit when we lived in Brooklyn. She had a very occasional glass of wine with our son but the doctors told her to be strict this time around. In three weeks, wine and chocolates.

Good luck with all that father a. When my wife was pregnant with the twins she stopped alcohol and I did also to but having a health issue I couldn't drink at all then  so was easy choice  for me but not so easy for Mrs blacdoom.

Was very happy to beat the English and secure the Calcutta cup for a second year in a row. Very unhappy with the performance against Wales as I thought it should be an easier task than the English. I think it Is Frances to loose now this year. 

No rugby this week but back the week after. 

Frasier good to hear from you. 

I will take your word on France being favourites to win it now. 

What position did you play in rugby 🏉 when you used to play. I played till I was 11 but quit because I was lazy😁 main job I did was tackling people. I was quite good at that. Can't remember the position name. 

 I'm no expert on rugby but I was surprised Eddie Jones kept his job after England's last six nations showing. Were you surprised? You was probably happy England did so bad. 😁

have you got a favourite player? Martin Johnson I always thought was phenomenal. Plus my best mate knows his dad which I think is cool too. What a player Johnson captaining England to world cup glory. Probably you don't want to be reminded of that again

Thank you, blaccckdoommmmfan. 🤗
Ah yes, I have heard the Metallica songs from their first 3 albums, and they have been really good.
I am still getting used to it, but I feel good about it.

It is a very different experience for me, in a lot of ways;
partly because of my personality, and partly because of the kind of music that my friends and I have been into.
My personality is about as far away as one can get from the attitude of thrash metal music - I am really really meek and non-confrontational, pretty quiet, and moved to tears really easily, and my friends and I have mostly been fans of slow ballads and boy bands.
So I am very fascinated by thrash metal, since it is so very different from all that.
It was a bit scary in the beginning, but now it is mostly energetic. ^-^

Great to hear from you miss teala.  The early Mettalica albums are fantastic and lightning is one of my favourite albums now although initially I did not like the first two that much. Well done for listening to different music. Thrash is along way from boy bands

Heavy metal can be confrontational although that's bit of a stereotype as there's lots of variations out there, the atmospheric doomy/death metal I listen to is not so confrontational just sorrowfull 😁but with excellent clean singing in there to lighten the mood. The kind of records that few people buy. 😁But I like them. Ave Maria is even more niche. I got a full album of this one track which includes a wonderful soprano female singer and  funeral doom with it. It was bit different for me to buy. It's been great though.  

I hope you carry on enjoying thrash and heavy metal music in general. What band do you want to hear next. Slayer perhaps or testament.

Being a big Rugby fan and longtime ex-player I feel a topic is needed! 
 

Six Nations is currently being played out and being a proud Scotsman I could not be happier with the start. 
 

Any Rugby fans? 

Fraser good discussion.hope you doing good.  The six Nations. Well done on beating the English. I don't know what happened to us  😱 beaten by a better team. Can Scotland win it this year?

Ex England player Chris Ashton is related to my brother's wife. It was good for my brother's father in law as he got free tickets when Chris was at Northampton saints. I think this is cool but most people are not as excited as I get. 

Talking about rugby league. My best friend lives in Leeds and he's seen a rugby league match.classy cas Castleford Vs can't remember 😂 not sure how they got the knickname but it's bit of an ear worm.

Ah yeah, that is true.
I just feel as if it is less common for girls to be fans of metal, at least compared to boy fans.

Welcome to the forum miss t. I hope you've enjoyed your time so far.   I've been to a thrash concert last year of acid reign who were in the British big 4 and whilst most of the fans were boys(actually mostly old boys 😂) there was a few females there having a great time.    Other metal genres have a majority female fans like nightwish. A forum member used to post about this subject because he said alot of females like heavy metal.  Out of interest who are your best thrash bands. Surely Mettalica is in there. Am I right😁

I tried the Johnnie White Walker which was a weird one for sure, distinctly below average unless you get it really cold and even then not worth buying. Also the Talasker select reserve which wasn’t too bad, but certainly isn’t as good as their other expressions.

Good to here from you oblivion. I hope your doing good 

Chilling a whisky to improve it is standard practice for harsher whiskys but from  what I've drunk id not expect to chill any Johnny walker whisky to improve it especially a fancy special edition.  Shame that talisker was not much good either. 

How was 16 year old lagavulin. Any good? I saw a previous post saying you were getting some? I've enjoyed the 12 year old lagavulin some years ago now. It went quick😋🥃

You do deserve a medal!

I yelled Happy Valentines from one end of the house to the other this morning to make sure my wife got out of bed on time.

Kk good to hear from you.    Yes I do deserve a medal. Don't mind if it's a chocolate, cookie or even made of sweets medal ☺️

Funny story re being the alarm clock for Mrs killa k. Was it appreciated. 

Wintersun-----  the forest seasons.  

Looking forward to new music. Enjoying this one. But come on guys. New music please☺️

These are classics I just love to hear even though I listen to them not that often. I'd get alot of time in this scenario though😁

1) mettalica-- master of puppets 

2)slayer---- reign in blood

3)wintersun----- time

4)slow(Belgium)---dantalion

5)wintersun----- time

Two weeks without alcohol. Friday can't come soon enough😛🥃🥃 

Does anyone else here have dry periods where there off the alcohol for a week or even longer. Not drinking for an hour don't count for me😂

Tomorrow I'm getting Cadbury milk tray for valentine's Day. The Mrs is getting quality street truffles. Happy days  I think. I even ordered a card for Mrs black doom. I deserve a medal that's what I think 😁

You're right, but I can tell you from experience sugar, caffeine, nicotine, anything like that only mask tiredness. Having fallen asleep behind the wheel more times than I should admit to in 30 years of driving trucks the only cure for tiredness is sleeping.

Drinking the rum straight there was a nice kick of the rum, but on rocks the alcohol kick lessens and it actually just tastes like very strong cordial. It's a weird taste for alcohol.

 

Yes to all that. I've improved alot for driving as I catch up on the zzz at the weekend. Made a world of difference. 

Think I will stick to rum no rocks then. Rhum agricole is worth trying if you haven't already. 

One drink I'm on more again is neat vodka. Used to drink that before I got on to whisky. Nothing much to taste from what I can taste  but it's smooth and a pleasent way to get drunk😉

I was drinking raspberry cider and then passionfruit and mango rum last night. Talk about a sugar hit, fell like IV sugar straight to the heart!

 

Thats a sugar hit.i get a similar hit from the sweets I eat. That sugar rush ☺️ and later crash🥱 which is more of an issue when driving. Falling asleep is not good when driving home 😁

Well I think moving forward I’ll just send out the shortlist of whiskeys I already like, still could be worse at least it wasn’t one of those stupid gimmick Game of Thrones whiskeys…

The shortlist is great. As it's still a surprise but you know you like all on the list. It's great until the other person does not get drink from the shortlist  🤬 

What were game of thrones whiskey like. Any good.? Which ones did you try?

I absolutely did not expect his type to listen to this music genre. This guy is a 55 yo suit wearing corporate Larry Fink type of dude. Real conservative looking and stern. I was presenting annual figures to him on friday when suddenly I heard his ringtone playing Prayer of Transformation by Wolves In The Throne Room. Man that moment was surreal in a positive way and we ended up enthusiastically talking about his favorite bands. It's interesting how looks can be soooo deceiving. Just wanted to share this little story with you guys...

Cool story re your boss. The previous waste water lead at my work was likely a rock or metal fan judging by the interest he had in medieval replica weapons, plus his appearance was a clue as he had long hair and loads of tattoos. Tbh should have asked him but always forgot😱 my current manager has a massive zz top beard so I'm guessing rock or metal fan😁 I will ask him though. He'll probably say disco 😱😱🤣

Gotta love family “hey bro me and the missus are coming around for dinner tomorrow oh by the way we are vegan now cook something vegan…” lucky I’m good at improvising these days

Impressive improvisation if you can cater for vegans👏 I'm guessing Google is handy

Cheers oblivion for that post.  I largely copied recipe but put in scotch whisky and honey instead of you know what. It tastes really good. Down side is i can't stop eating it.😋 The guests come tomorrow. An empty pot would make me unpopular. Very unpopular.  🤣

Really great album here. Heard it a few times before, decided to do a review; personally I like it because each song has its own style, sometimes you get some albums that just all sound the same and are lyrically the same too. its because of this that its so hard to pick a favorite song from the album. I like them all... Ivan does an epic job with the vocals, and the badass guitar riffs sit nicely too. its cool how they sometimes have acoustic guitars playing in the midst, I know tons of other bands do this too, but it spices it up even more. another thing that ive noticed is the album art, now, i dont know about you guys, but the album art is also a (side) factor for me, of course its the music that counts, but this particular album art is notably different from many other metal albums out there, just goes to show that FFDP are willing to be different, which is epic. soooooo... what do you guys think of got your six? hope you liked this review, and hope it wasnt too cheesy, as it is my first... until now, stay brutal🤘

Five Finger Death Punch Got your six Full album - YouTube

I liked your review👏EC. Out of interest out of 10 what would it get. Obviously 10 is mega good😁

Lemmy playing full power with the band Vs Chuck Norris. I'm thinking Lemmy would win. Chuck would get ko'd by the sheer volume literally of noise😁 he'd come to a decade later with longer beard than ZZ top 🤣

That’s what happens when your friends know you are a whiskey drinker but don’t know anything about whiskey… generally I’d say anything I can’t drink neat isn’t worth having but the wild turkey isn’t bad for making cocktails with I guess, and it’s pretty good to cook with

I can imagine what legendary tennis superstar  John McEnroe would do if his present was not so good. I can imagine him saying to present giver. Hey you "This present 🎁 sucks.  please get me X,y or z "😁

Diced tomatoes, kidney beans, tomato purée, ground beef, garlic, chilli powder, cumin, paprika, salt and pepper, chipotle powder, equal parts bourbon and maple syrup I used a quarter cup of each, The onion, garlic, and spices you can wing it depending on taste.

Thanks for the recipe oblivion 👍

 doing a chilli in next few days for visiting friends. The recipe will inspire me to do something more interesting. Thanks 👏👏👏also may try a variation on the maple syrup and bourbon as don't have either of those. Hopefully won't be case of your recipe being amazing and mine being awful. All part of the fun I guess😁
