I had straight Bundaberg rum.

I think it took two bottles of ... something non-alcoholic, I forget what, to wash most of the taste out of my mouth.

I have somewhat enjoyed rum & Coke and rum & orange, but in both cases thought I'd have enjoyed the Coke and the orange juice more by themselves.
I've never even heard of it. I am very skeptical and picky about rum. I usually won't touch it unless it's Captain Morgan's because I've found that most others are quite vile. The Bacardi 151 was quite the challenge, but when mixed with Vanilla cream soda, it was quite tasty. Strong, but tasty. And it'll knock you on your arse too.

I can't say I've ever really had Rum & Coke, though in my case, it'd have to be Rum & Diet Coke! :laugh:
 
Oh my god, Ax - my parents and the parents of this family we've known since forever were at an Adelaide bottle-o. Dad and the other guy saw these 2 dollar wines, and they bought twelve of them! Apparently they were so vile they felt sick afterwards. Mum was a little more cautious, but I think the guys just wanted to get crunked.

... they bought TWELVE? Oh god. If I were willing to risk it on a $2 wine, I'd buy one, give it a try, and only then buy a stack! It's just not worth getting wasted on bad wine.

I must admit, I always feel like an inferior wine drinker when I'm buying these wines for $12 or $15. My father's probably walking out of a bottle-o in New Zealand at exactly the same time with two bottles under his arm and a $150 hole in his wallet.

Never trust cheap alcohol. Especially wine.
I had cheap wine once and got hungover for 2 days.

Bundaberg is a rum from Queensland, it's the most popular Australian rum. Very popular with bogans, you can buy it straight or in mixers with coke/ginger beer/what have you. Vile shit, a lot of my more country-oriented friends drink it excessively.
 
I've got the sick, nasty, i've-drank-too-much feeling...and all we're going is TALKING about drink.

I think this qualifies me as ST's cheapest drunk.

Haha, I'll take your word for it.
Sounds like shit that'd give you a killer hangover if you could bear it long enough to get wasted on it.

Bundaberg rum is Australia's hyper-commercialised, available-everywhere rum that sponsors the national rugby team and needs to fuck off. Though visiting its factory is about the only thing to do in Bundaberg, Queensland. It e ven has its own railway depot for the cane trains that serve it!

I've had rum & Coke just the once, didn't think much of it, and rum & orange juice a couple of times since my stepfather likes it.

Sounds like a lot of the alcohol we have here. :laugh:

Ah, never tried that either. I find having a little bit of that Blue Mountain Dew I keep raving about with the Spiced Rum I mentioned before is quite delicious.
 
Serena has something she'd like to overshare with the rest of the class.

Apparently some people look down on rum & orange juice, but my stepfather's quite fond of it and doesn't care. I just found it to be orange juice with a dodgy alcoholic consistency that was less satisfying than straight orange juice!
 
A little off-topic;
Ax, just so you know, I am going to hunt you down if you keep poisoning my dreams.

But poisoning the dreams of Interferencers worldwide is part of my campaign of subversive global conquest. :up:

Don't suppose it can be a lot worse than a Screwdriver. Now those are vile.

But they're a source of much amusement in the Fawlty Towers episode Gourmet Night, where Basil doesn't realise that a Screwdriver is a drink. :laugh:
 
Right, so funny from that Bundaberg talk before, because I just went to a mate's MySpace and his page is completely decked out with a Bundy layout.

Disown your mate.

:laugh: That sounds absolutely comical.

It's BRILLIANT. The episode's great, as it sends up both brash Americans and over-polite Brits. And it ends with a classic scene of Basil losing it and verbally abusing all the hotel guests.

:laugh: OK, this is definitely a show I must see.
