Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
I think I'd need to be drunk in the first place to walk up to the bar and ask for an Anal Penetrator
And you'd really need to choose your bar carefully.
Experts Warn About Powdered Alcohol.
I can't figure out how "Powdered Alcohol" can be alcoholic. The ethanol would evaporate before the water.
ION, Droogle, a drink recipe search engine.
That's.... an interesting name.
Anyone else flashing on A Clockwork Orange? Just me, then? All right.
Come, my Droogle....

Yeah, the more I think about that the more curious and confused I get. I googled, but could not come up with any more info than what was in the article.
I broke my favorite mug this morning. Bah.

They did a thing on that on the local news here last week. None of the testers were much impressed - what it really seemed likely to do was fuck you up if you get stopped on the road because you're not actually drunk but your breathalyzer scores are off the chart.
I was consumed by curiosity as to how you powder alcohol, and finally managed to google this:
FOOD TECHNOLOGY JANUARY 2000
Alcohol in powdered form. Spray-dried alcohol powders (also called “powdered alcohol”) have been developed by Senba San Francisco Food Processing, 291 Geary St., Suite 205, San Francisco, CA 94102 (phone 415-398-4533; fax 415-398-3189) for use as an ingredient in a variety of nonbeverage applications. The powder contains approximately 30% alcohol by dry weight, and is said to maintain a high degree of the original flavor of the alcohol solution. It is available in such flavors as brandy, rum, whiskey, red wine, white wine, and vodka.
According to the manufacturer, the powder is produced in the following way. A solution of water and alcohol is mixed with maltodextrin and then spray-dried at relatively low temperatures. Each molecule of alcohol is encapsulated by dextrin during the spray-drying process and the smaller water molecules are allowed to pass through the surface and evaporate. There is about a 5% loss of alcohol on the surface of each droplet.
The powdered alcohol may be used in such applications as cake mixes, ice cream mixes, jelly and jams, dried soups, cheeses, chocolates, biscuits, breads, hams and sausages, candies, gourmet coffees, and sauces. By adding the ingredient to a dry mix, it can improve the taste and batter consistency of the product, while accentuating flavors.
It offers various advantages over liquid alcohol such as convenience, easier handling and storage, and reduced safety concerns. Furthermore, alcohol powders (with an addition of 1.5% salt) can be handled without having a liquor permit and without paying federal alcohol taxes. The ingredient is labeled as a natural flavor.
I want vodka Pixie Stix!
Oh I see, that's something different. They were testing the vaporizer thing.
Mmmmm. I covered for one of my coworkers while she was on vacation in Canada, and she brought me back some maple syrup. I may have to change my dinner plans from a green salad with grilled chicken to french toast.
