I don't know why, but I find this question compelling. Ok, the pint can be filled with Dr. Pepper for all I care, but seriously, who would you go to the pub/Chili's with? I find so many of the posters on this website interesting I could easily see myself meeting up and having a discussion over drinks with many of you guys. Sorry EF, no talks over vegemite...

I have a dream to come over and play at one of the big game cons and would be happy to meet any US Dakka's if that happened. Just been prepared to leave your weapons at home as I'd expect some serious leg pulling / wind ups!

Live your life that the fear of death can never enter your heart. Trouble no one about his religion. Respect others in their views and demand that they respect yours. Love your life, perfect your life. Beautify all things in your life. Seek to make your life long and of service to your people. When your time comes to die, be not like those whose hearts are filled with fear of death, so that when their time comes they weep and pray for a little more time to live their lives over again in a different way. Sing your death song, and die like a hero going home.

I could quite happily drink a pint with most people from here too, even the guys I disagree with. Mainly because I like discuss and debate things and the best way to do that is with people who have different view points. It helps test your own assumption and it much easier in person than using a written format. Automatically Appended Next Post: Though I imagine most people wouldn't drink me with because, well ...

I would happily have a pint with anyone on Dakka who has an expense account. After the binge drinking, we'll head over to the gaming store and pick up some "office supplies".

People are like dice, a certain Frenchman said that. You throw yourself in the direction of your own choosing. People are free because they can do that. Everyone's circumstances are different, but no matter how small the choice, at the very least, you can throw yourself. It's not chance or fate. It's the choice you made. |

I'm drinking some Chilean Red Wine right now. Rico-Rico (which in Japanese if you're smashed enough sounds like "liquor liquor") 450 yen a bottle. Bought at the hardware store.

Yeah, I'm cheap as well.
I normally go around the £6-8 mark for a bottle. When at home anyway, house red generally in a restaurant.
Did once get to try some stupidly expensive Chateau de neuf from 196something or ever at a restaurant in London on my mates expenses account. In all honesty I can't say i thought it was worth the X hundred quids we were charged.

Ayah. To use your currency equiv. I can tell the difference between £ 3-4 bottle and £7-10 one, but after that I really can’t see the difference much. I can tell the difference between cheap, mid, and high priced rums though, but that just means I'm a drunk. OT but I am tempted to try the £1.00 sweet wine I drank in the college days. Saw it the other day-the price had not changed.

Ha, yeah I think back to some of the crap I used to drink when I was younger....to borrow a phrase
You know you're in for a good time, when there's a polar bear bleeding, on the label.
I agree about the wine and taste difference. I can "spot" the crappy £3 bottle I picked up for cheap but seems very little difference between anything I've tried that's over £20 compared to what I usually quaff.
ah what the hell, whilst I'm here
