And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
This is why I prefer gin.

If gin were invented today, would it still be called gin, or would it be just another flavored vodka?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I think Cupcake is just the name of the winery that makes it?
They say they want to achieve the mouth feel of cupcakes. Frosting seems to be vanilla vodka, original has tree fruit (uhuh), Devil's Food Cake is dark chocolate, and chiffon is lemony. I'm not sure what this mouth feel is to achieve.
But I am also a heathen.
I should take a wine tasting class, so I can start being pretentious. Or a tequila tasting class, so I can have some fun.

Somehow I think "vodka that tastes like chewing on a Christmas tree" would be hard to sell.

Well, both, right? It is the winery's name, but then they decided to make a cutesy-wootsy play on their name.

Yes. ASS-flavored vodka.

Then it's not "just" the name of the winery. It's also the name of the winery.
Ooh, I'm having a pedantic day. But this is week three of this migraine, and I want to cut someone. Real hard. Instead, I will track down project documents while listening with one ear to the con call.

I'm still not really reconciled to vodka being made from grapes.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-
It is? Huh. Donald Trump would take credit for the sun if he could get by with it.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Good lord -- the president released his "long form" birth certificate.
I cannot believe it.
Also: he shouldn't have. But now the birthers are going to come up with some other reason why he's not qualified to be president, so it won't matter. Turtles all the way down, after all.
I am in agreeance.
This whole thing pisses me off and I'm not getting less mad about it either. I think I need to see some pictures of bunnies or something.
