*ESPECIALLY whisky
Why spoil whiskey by adding coke?
People who do this should be burnt at the stake!

because they've taken in the "culture"
of asking for "a JD and coke please"...which actually makes JD taste worse
*no where near as bad as asking for a "SO-CO"...ask for that in my pub and you will be barred. FACT.

bells may be the most average of average

Bells is horrid stuff (but when the company give you a bottle for Christmas you don't complain)
I'd rather be drinking Johnnie Walker or Jamesons.

even then only "training" bourbon like Jim Beam white
a good sipping bourbon should be as is, or at a push over ice.

If you want to buy whisky/bourbon/whiskey for the product go ahead.
If I want to buy a JD and coke it's because I want a JD and coke, and y'all can fuck off if you don't like it.
That said, if I ever see someone adding coke to Laphroaig I'll fucking kill them

I went to a stag do in the highlands last year and the hotel had a whisky room
all was going swimmingly until one of the heathens i was with asked for some lemonade in a 18year old single malt..... thought the barman was going to have him taken out and shot. (which of course would have been only fair)

there's a Whisky shop recently opened in Oxford.
I love it.
Mainly because I went in and said "I'm looking for something for my flatmate's birthday."
the shop bloke thought hard for about 30 seconds, then gave an absolutely dead-pan reply.
"personally, I'd recommend whisky."

nope
he's just a bloke in a shop. He's extraordinarily laid back and really likes whisky.

I was very annoyed the other day.
I bought a DVD, as in purchased a retail version of a DVD. For money.
When I put it in the DVD player, it started playing trailers for other fillums. It wouldn't let me access the menu while they were playing, so I skipped past the first. Then there was another. I skipped past. There was another. I skipped past. There was another. I skipped past that. Then there was an actual fucking advert for fucking malteesers!
I'm livid about this; I've paid for that fillum, so I don't expect to be advertised at, and I certainly don't want the distributor to prevent me immediately playing the film.

yup
and why is it that all the DVDs you buy have an anti piracy advert on, but the pirate DVDs your mate has doesn't? :D

This is happening more often
What really grinds my gears are those film piracy adverts.
I've just bought this DVD on which you have placed a piracy ad. You're preaching to the converted! In fact, you're making me want to commit film piracy just so I don't have to see that bloody advert anymore!

This whole digital media thing is fucked up.
It really is.
Everyone knows that DRM stuff is unfair on the customer, which is why Apple and that lot are scrapping it wherever possible. But it's still happing for films and the new on-demand TV stuff.
For example, as I use Linux at home and not windows, I find it impossible to legally buy digital media. They just won't sell it to me. "You need to have Windows" they say. Which means I would, to stay legal, have to buy an operating system for £100 or whatever, just in order to watch/ listen to downloaded media.
So I can't use these online on-demand rental systems and I can't catch up with the telly. Unless I download from bittorrent or something, which is supposedly illegal and makes my ISP do things to my traffic.

There's no such thing as bad publicity.
This is why representatives of maltesers are now waking people up in the middle of the night, in their bedrooms, with megaphones. It's proving very effective.

Yes. But not so secretly anymore.
It's my favourite word of all time and can be heard numerous times in my workplace as scorn is poured on fucktards. Of which there is a bountiful supply of.
I love them really.
