Man, this lockdown is threatening to turn me into a damn alcoholic haha, so damn bored all the time I'm constantly tempted to drink just for the sensation and stimulation. I'm trying to limit myself to only drinking during my fortnightly zoom hangouts with work friends, for the sake of my liver. Has anyone here tried Strong Zero/-196/Double Lemon? It's this Japanese drink that's recently come out in Australia where they deep freeze a lemon to -196 Celsius then crush it and mix it with vodka and rice liquor. It's freaking amazing. |
Are there any other flavours? I can see a watermelon tasting great frozen in liquid nitrogen lol |
Not that I know of but that does sound really awesome haha.

As a kid, I tried alcohol with my parent's blessing and thought I was the coolest little shit on the block.
As a teen I continued to drink from time to time because I could but quickly came to realize how little I liked it and I Realized I was just doing it to be cool. It never had an effect on me no matter how much I drank; I never got a buzz or comfortably numb or anything like that. It just tasted bad, was expensive, and made other people idiots I didn't want to be around.
As a young adult and legal drinking age, I got bored of it but people still thought I was fun to party with so I drank until I was blackout drunk (Took a full 40oz on my own), and haven't drank since then. I just don't see the appeal and only ever did when I was an insecure kid trying to fit in and be cool. Now I'm just my own person and I not only don't drink but don't smoke or do any drugs. I just don't see the appeal and don't understand people who do. I like having my mental faculties, thank you very much. |
Well, personally, the main reason I drink is to take a break from the often terrifying and demanding nature of reality and just enjoy feeling relaxed and spaced out. I don't think to the point of being sick though, it's a fine balance you gotta hit.
I don't smoke or do any illegal drugs though; I have no desire to get lung cancer and I don't wanna go to jail.
