I really like bringing a good Shiraz. Most are happy with that.
I don't like vampires. I'm gonna take a stand and say they're not good.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

I've gotten some nice old vine cabernet sauvignons at TJs.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Who has two thumbs and created a big ole hot mess of angst and confrontation with her mother in law two weeks before Christmas over a fucking veggie tray?
THIS GIRL!!!

Typo, do you at least know if they like red or white or both?

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
If you know they like red, a merlot is usually safe. If you know they like white, a chardonnay is usually safe.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Ginger, that's an excellent batch of health news. You're not just in my thoughts--my mother asks about you too. I can't wait to tell her this.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
If you are buying wine for someone whose taste you don't know well (other than the fact that they do like whiskey, wine and beer) what you buy for them at Trader Joe's?
The wine guy at TJ's could help you. But frankly, if this person liked whiskey, I'd probably buy him a bottle of Scotch since TJ's has excellent prices on very good Scotch.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
How can I be so worn down by what was ostensibly a day off? E-fucking-gad, I'm starting to hate Christmas.

It's no longer fashionable to hate on Merlot, so if you like it, I say enjoy. I'm such a plebeian when it comes to reds anyway, I like a good meritage over most varietals.
