Re: So I\'m a woman if i order a cosmopolitan?
[ QUOTE ]
hey, this is my first post in OOT, but i feel like this is a good place to ask. alright, so right now i'm in ny for the first time in my life, and last night i went to a bar where a friend of mine works. i'm not a big bar guy; it's pretty much all keg beer, cheap beer, or really bad attempts at making mixed drinks for me. so, this was really cool. anyways, i decided that i'd order every drink that i've always wanted to try. i was talking to this really cute girl, and things seemed to be going pretty well when the waitress came up and asked what i'd like to drink. i ordered a cosmopolitan, and she [censored] smurked. anyways the girl was like, "that's a girl's drink," and basically ignored me later in the night. my buddy at the bar called me a pussy, which pretty much implies that it's a girl's drink. the drink tastes great tho, so wtf? and it seemed like there was lotsa alcohol in it... so, is this a bad thing to order? and, am i a chick?

If you are in a real bar, ask what is the best they have on tap, or do few Jager Bombs and get shitfaced. Big Steve [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]

Re: So I\'m a woman if i order a cosmopolitan?
On a somewhat related note...
Me, at a friend's house with a bunch of people, consuming alcohol. They're busy mixing drinks. Them: "What do you want?" Me: "Whatever, just make me something." They bring me a drink. I ask what it is and they say "just drink it". Turns out it's a Malibu and Coke. Me: "That's not bad." Them: "YOU'RE GAY!!!!" Give me a break.

Re: So I\'m a woman if i order a cosmopolitan?
So in one of the worst Vonnegut books, Bluebeard, there is an important scene with the abstract artist where he makes a portrait out of dust and says he could not do great abstract art without being able to do the basics so well (this is out of memory...no one correct me please)
The point is, you can only drink a cosmopolitan with a bartender who knows you can drink a half a bottle of whiskey if you wanted to. Perfect analogy?

Yeah, you may be right...I should never write down my 6 AM drunken brilliance, as that is the only way I can be proven to be the moran I wish I was not.

Re: So I\'m a woman if i order a cosmopolitan?
I am all for drinking what you like. Now, that being said, it is really hard to pull off a cosmo. A screwdriver, a royal flush (great drink btw - equal parts Crown, Peach Schnapps and Cranberry), or even a glass of good red wine (my weakness) But a Cosmo is a straight up woman drink. Actually, I don't think that there is any drink in the world more womanly than a Cosmo. The REAL problem isn't the drink itself, either. It is the impression. Every drink gives a different impression. Beer, cheap domestic- I just want to get drunk, cheaply. Beer, import- I want to get drunk, and I am too good for that cheap beer. Beer, premium domestic- I am too good for the cheap beer, but I am an American, damn it! Jack/Rum and Coke, screwdriver- I just want to get drunk, and this works fine for me. Martini, non premium vodka- I really am sophisticated... No, really I am. Martini, top-shelf, $20 a shot vodka- After I finish this, wanna go for a ride in my porsche? Cheap, American white wine- I have no taste. A good (not necessarily expensive) BOTTLE of wine (with 2 glasses)- I have class, and taste, and want to get drunk, want to join me? Cosmopolitan- I am a catcher. Not to say that you can't get away with it. You just really have to work to show that your "drink impression" is the wrong one. Like, randomly punching the guy to your left in your face and then taking your first sip.
