Absinthe
"Got tight on absinthe last night" - Ernest Hemingway
"Fuck, I love this shit" - upyerbum
Well, its this place where nobody works, and the pigs don\'t give you any shit. Everyone smokes weed and gets drunk all day. Its a place where
cunts like me and you can truly take it easy and relax. Know what I mean?

Stuff will fuck you up. Still not 100% sure of the circumstances that led up to me getting a bottle of this stuff.

Never had it but would try it if I could find it. Where do you pick up something like that?

Most absinthe is a waste of money. In addition to being really expensive, most countries limit the content of the active ingredient (thujone) at 10mg
per liter. With the alcohol content at about 140 proof, you will be unconscious from the alcohol long before you get to a point where you can feel the
effects of the thujone. I wouldn't waste my money on any absinthe that contained less than 100mg per liter.
You can order absinthe from overseas (at originalabsinthe.com for example), but it's a gamble. You won't get arrested for it, but that doesn't mean
that it won't be seized by customs.
Also, its the worst-tasting beverage ever.

^^^^^^^^^^ Never let some shit like this be a reason to give up what you have held strong for almost 2 years. Form the reviews I just read I don't
think neither of us are missing out.

Amen to that. I don't think anything would get me off the wagon. It really hasn't been hard. It is nice.

I guess the "real stuff" is easier to get here in the states now. I had some friends in a band who used to bring the shit back from Europe with them.
I've never had it, but here it's pretty trippy.
