I thought this thread would be about the alcoholic shot.

Oh, for us it is mainly just fascinating to watch you. At least sometimes.

To some extent we are even greatfull.

I mean, during your last president you managed to let us "The Germans" look like the good guys when we rejected to be part of the Iraq mess.

Explain to me what a "kamikazi" shot is and I will explain to you what the Austrian drink called "Ranz" is.

I have not had one in a while, but they are delicious.

Ok, "Ranz" traslates to "rancid stuff".

Basicaly it is when at the end of a long party that lasted over a long amount of time no alcohol is left, every glass, can and bottle is collected and the leftover at the bottom is poured into one big bottle or canister.

This drink is known to sometimes cause herpes and to sometimes contain drain cleaner.

But it will make you drunk.

Usualy this is consumed by 15 to sometimes 17 year olds who in most cases regret it. I certainly did.

That is what happens when one is young and dumb. I never touched a drop of alcohol until I was almost twenty-two. My verbally abusive alcoholic father was to thank for that.

That is the very definition of suicidal tendencies.
