Lift a Glass

It's been awhile since I posted a blogthing for fun. This past weekend I saw a pub that had its tables outside ready to kick-off the patio season and I thought ... hmmm ... a drink would be nice. So this little trifle is about being true to your drinking self! I hope that many of you will try it and let me know your answers (that's what comments are for people!) I happen to think some of the references about me are downright scary in their accuracy! Cheers!
You Are a Classic Martini

You area sophisticated drinker, who knows that simple quality is over-rated.
You're a knowledgeable drunk, but sometimes you're a know-it-all when you're blasted.

You should never: Drink and gossip. You tend to forget who's standing right behind you!

Your ideal party: Has a real bartender. But no one mixes a better drink than you.

Your drinking soulmates: those with a Chocolate Martini personality

Your drinking rivals: those with a Margarita Martini personality


You Are Guinness

You know beer well, and you'll only drink the best beers in the world.
Watered down beers disgust you, as do the people who drink them.
When you drink, you tend to become a bit of a know it all - especially about subjects you don't know well.
But your friends tolerate your drunken ways, because you introduce them to the best beers around.

Gee, I wonder why we're friends. I'm a Classic Martini/Guinness gal too. I don't like either drink, but the descriptions probably fit.

Apparently I'm a chocolate martini with these characteristics:

You're an elegant drunk, who only likes the best bars and the most expensive drinks.
A bit of a cheapskate, you're likely to mooch ten dollar drinks off both friends and strangers.

You should never: Drink and dash. You're gonna get caught leaving someone with the tab!

Your ideal party: A posh celebrity party you crash, with an open bar.

Your drinking soulmates: those with a Classic Martini personality

(I'm not really a moocher am I????)

OK, and yet:

You Are Heineken

You appreciate a good beer, but you're not a snob about it.
You like your beer mild and easy to drink, so you can concentrate on being drunk.
Overall, you're a friendly drunk who's likely to buy a whole round for your friends... many times.
Sometimes you can be a bit boring when you drink. You may be prone to go on about topics no one cares about.

Ahhh Cindy, at least as a chocolate martini you and I are drinking friends!

My fave line? "You like your beer mild and easy to drink, so you can concentrate on being drunk"

And you are never a mooch - you are always the classy one when I'm telling bold-faced lies to strangers to get us drinks! (you do speak Inuit afterall!) :)

I had totally forgotten about that! That's hilarious. Too bad you aren't here... I think we could have fun around here! didn't know you drank Guinness though.
