"goddamn right I want a little umbrella with that" :gigachad-hd:

The gendering of drinks has always been weird to me. Like clothes I can at least somewhat understand (although there's still a lot of bullshit around that), but... fucking drinks?

    I once was on a date with a guy who got offended that I ordered a piña colada with my dinner

    Tried to get me to get a scotch and soda instead as it was "more of a man's drink"

    Weirdest fucking thing, seeing as how we ended up on a date because my co-worker wanted to set up her brother with a "cute gay"

    Masculinity is a fuck

      Can't stand any kind of whiskey in soda

      Like yeah let's really get a looooong pull of that bitter wood varnish flavor without any of the spicy nutty flavor. Like have some jack, THEN some coke

        Rum and Coke is soooo much better than Jack and Coke

        Also, I am glad to hear that I am not the only one to recognize that Scotch tastes like how Olde English furniture polish smells

          The first time I went to a bar my friend's husband handed me a scotch on the rocks "here try this, it tastes like an attic"

          Truer words were never spoken.

        I love whiskey cocktails, and I even like whiskey straight. Whiskey and coke tastes like ass. I’d rather have a shot of whiskey and a coke. I’d much rather have a rum and coke.

            I love a good old fashioned. Lately I’ve been into making whiskey sours and New York sours (whiskey sour with a float of red wine on top) with egg white and they’re sooooo good and they’re really pretty
