New drunk. Thread. Hahahah fuuuuuuu.

buying a bottle of champagne to drink yourself is fun, but i always find by the time i'm solo finishing moet it tastes way too sweet. dom goes down smoother, but perrier jouet is the best for that imo.

Any white or sparkling is generally too sweet for me. I tend to only drink white when eating Asian out with friends and I know I am going to drink beer afterwards.

My favourite champagne is tattinger, that's the least sweet one I've had too.

Champagne is wine. The idea that champagne is only for celebration is kinda a non starter for me. Wherever you drink wine, you can drink sparkling wine.

I champagne is wine, however champagne is at least $40 a bottle and a good cheap white or red will cost you less than $20. I know people, mainly women, who only ever drink champagne and other sparkling whites. I mean you could buy a $20 sparkling white or prosseco or something like that if you wanted to drink a cheaper bubbly but a $20 red is miles better than a $20 sparkling where I am from.
 
somebody coming in here trying to check minus_me on his champagne game huh


huh




okay

I aren't trying to check anyone. Feel free to drink whatever you want, I hate people telling me what to drink too.

But from where I am from, in south Australia, where they make some of the most highly rated reds in the world, you can buy two or three awesome bottles of Shiraz or cab sav for the same price as one decent bottle of champagne.

It's a no brainer for me.

The reason why champagne is commonly used as a celebratory drink is because it was the expensive stuff in France, so only used by the wealthy and for special occasions. It's a symbolic thing these days, you drink champagne when you celebrate something is a tradition.

If I want to get drunk on bubbly white, it's definitely not champagne but some local crap I mix with orange juice or make kirs with. And even then, I haven't really done that since I was a kid.

Edit: I forgot to add, I won't be drinking this bottle of champagne after all. My brother and his wife had a baby today and when I just went in to see her she was talking about how the doctors and nurses were talking about Friday night drinks during the delivery (this is in an Australian private hospital) and what they were going to drink. My sister in law said how much she had missed alcohol and so I am going to give her the bottle of Moët tomorrow as a gift.

I've been informed I was marching around the house wearing nothing but a towel cape shouting "can't you just let me be?!??"

Telling you what to drink wasn't my intention, if it came across like that, i owe you an apology.

IDK might be my privilege of growing up with champagne being used as a table wine many nights at home.

I was drinking at lunch and at the office today honestly. The wine was a come down. Making some Old fashioneds with some Canadian Club, not a bad mix.

You're already all caught up? The episode where the craigslist guy ages the kids to see what they'll look like as adults was the GOAT



Went to a buddies house to chill tonight and ended up doing a power hour. Got one of those youtube playlists going and poured out actual shots of beer every minute. I haven't done that in awhile. Gotta wake up in 5 hours for work.

yeah I caught up in no time because the seasons/eps are so dang short. classic stuff tho! dude is a legend.

now kinda drunk responding to some tinder messages I got today and channeling my inner Nathan
 
My body finally gave out on me. Even my buddy got sick the same day. Taking the weekend off, cancelled our Xmas party, date with older woman friday, date with younger woman saturday...

fuck getting sick... but I guess thats what happens when your diet the last two months has been junior highschool lunch and beer/alcohol/bar food. Time for a fruits and veggies day... somewhere in between this shit.
