Forgot about when my daughter got married. $3900.00 at her reception. Good thing I didn't invite my drinking friends.

I would say this doesn't count, but I'm all for drunk driving prevention.

Not much, I've only had two nights of drinking alcohol.

I think my alcohol drinking is going to be short-lived, nothing tastes good. I've had a Yuengling, Heineken, Maker's and Coke, some other beer don't know the brand, amaretto sour, homemade Mike's hard lemonade, Coke and LIIT, and a Southern Comfort and Mountain Dew. Most were just sips. I drank the whole Maker's and Southern Comfort drinks.

The closest I've come to liking anything is the SoCo and Mt. Dew. I'll probably give a few more things a whirl, but I won't be disappointed in not drinking alcohol since everything is so expensive and I have no money.

OSH I would recommend these two drinks for you. These are things that will taste good are decently priced and will give you something to drink in a social setting.

The first one is the new three olives dude vodka mixed with spite. It pretty much tastes like a lemon lime Gatorade or mountain dew depending on what you mix it with.

The second one is Pinnacle Whippped Vocka. You can mix this with pretty much anything and it tastes good. With coke it tastes like a vanilla coke, with orange soda it tastes like a dreamsicle, and with root beer a root beer float.

These are two drinks my girlfriend will get when she's out in a social drinking setting after work because they taste pretty good are decently priced and she hates pretty much everyone else besides wine.

Rum mixed in kool-aid is less alcohol tasting than even a wine cooler.

The flavored clear smirnoff drinks taste very similar.

Sangria

These are all good for the non-alcoholic taste.

Teach those fuckers a lesson. Mix their drinks with pure spite!

I would like to try this vocka with some of that spite you mentioned.

She must really like wine, to prefer it over people.

I bought a $400 bottle of Dom at my buddy's bachelor party. That same night, one of the guys bought a $900 bottle of Cristal. My brother once had a $125 shot of Louis XIII(he got to expense it to the company he works for though).

Bought a bottle of Ace of Spades Rose at a night club in NYC a few years ago. $600, but the meeting landed me a $5,000 job, so it was easily worth it.
