The **Now Drinking** Thread

What is girly about it?

Do you drink water or anything else that tastes sweet?

Water doesn't taste sweet, does it. Not to anyone that I've heard.

OK, I'll give you my honest answer, it's about associations. I associate Disarano with being a student in halls and getting into stronger drinks, but Disarano was the easy way in.

Now, Disarano isn't bad at all, but I can't imagine drinking it now, I prefer stuff that's more sour or bitter. Disarano is... a little sickly in quantity. That doesn't make me more mature etc etc, it's just a shift in preference.

So, enjoy your Disarano. If I'd known we'd have had this much discussion about it I would have... changed nothing.

I just found it a bit odd that you associated a drink with being gay. There should be nothing stopping a person from enjoying a drink imo, especially fear of social stigmas. :)

Right. Right. You need to get out more. Not my choice, that's just the way it is. Try ordering that in a bar up North.

A friend of my brother's ordered Southern Comfort and Coke in a bar in Kettering [not the North, I know] and was told to **** off by the barman. I imagine you're quite young. There ARE stigmas attached to drinks. Be aware of what they are - and where you are when ordering.

Really? :D I'd love a barman to say that to me!

I guess you're quite young if you feel that a drink says that much about a person; I'm sort of past that stage now, hence my previous post. :)

I honestly couldn't give a flying **** what some barman/maid thinks about what I order.

Haha, nice retort. Unfortunately it doesn't change anything. You can't reason with everyone, especially on matters of drinking preference. I find it strange that you'd even attempt to enter into a debate about it since the stigma is so ingrained for many people and pointless to try to reform.
