According to my statistics, in comparison to that article I am a ginormous slut.
I am Robin.
I am Robin AND DJ! I'm extremely pretty and witty. (NSM with the gay lately, though.)
Hey y'all. I spotted a bottle of Fernet at the liquor store and got all "we have to try this!" But now I don't know what to do with it. Also (tee hee) it turns out my friends already had an open bottle in the cabinet. How long does it keep for?
It'll keep for a good long while, believe me. The SF way of drinking Fernet is to shoot it - you can have a ginger ale chaser if you need it. The Italian way is to sip it as a digestif (or as a cure when you're sick, especially when you're sick in the tummy). The Argentinian way is to drink it mixed with Coca-Cola.
We are shooting it, chased with Veuve Clicquot. My snap judgment is that Fernet is a steam punk beverage.
You have to remember that the actual drinking of Fernet can be kind of a shock to the system, but it makes you feel so much better afterwards. It's a strange effect. It's also a superlative hangover cure, not that I would know anything about that.

Um. Have fun???
(Fernet & champagne **in the same night** is in the List of Things Juliana Is Not Allowed To Drink, along with tequila (on its own self). And something else, but I forget what.)
I went to the Atlanta F2F with a bit of a lingering cough and feeling unwell, then I took a shot of Fernet and it all cleared up.

I'd interested to hear why you have this conclusion. I think I agree with it....

See!! It really is fantastic (it just tastes... strong).
purrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr Fernet.
Am home and have TWO, count them TWO, open bottles of Fernet. Don't ask. Or blame juliana. Or something.
Fernet chased with champagne sounds AWESOME...but using Veuve seems like a waste, really!
I am SO rolling my eyes at the HR guy at the second Seattle company. He was *totally* clueless when he did my preliminary interview. Which, OK, he said he was new to the industry, and it is kinda technical, fine. But he didn't seem to have any idea what he was talking about--this wasn't even just "reading down a list of requirements, have you done them?" kinda thing. It was "So, um, did you work on any drugs? like, things that are pills? or injections?" But OK, you're new to the industry...but sending me an email to set up travel and saying "Does Raleigh have an airport"?? Dude. (A) You have my resume. I'm not in North Carolina. And (B) Raleigh has an airport. It is not especially new, or small. WTF?

The forgetting of an alcoholic beverage that you should Never Ever drink again is soooo a v. bad thing.
Why do I keep thinking today is Thursday? And why the hell isn't it? Tomorrow should totally be Friday. Can someone please get to work on making that happen?
