Vodka
 
I know a girl from Romania who works as a waitress in Wimpy who told me she used to drink 3 litres of vodka a day for 2 years before she had to give it up. Is that humanly possible? If I drunk that much vodka a day, it would've killed me.

My wife, long distance on phone today, suggested I could add vodka to my hot chocolate (told her this was the only liquor in the apt). It's tasteless, after all, and alcohol is alcohol, she says.

But 3 litres? No. Impossible. She's a liar. That or something is lost in the translation. Maybe a Romanian litre is just a cup.

Maybe she's after sympathy or something. I know she hated her life in Romania and will never go back save to visit her children. Her husband was a mean drunk who'd beat her. So you can't blame her for fleeing to the UK.

Gmku, brandy works better in hot chocolate.

I think 3 liters is a bit much, ive seen extreme cases of people drinking a bottle a day and theyd be the kind that is constantly shaking makes no sense and smells like death.

so her husband was a mean drunk and she was a nice drunk?

She's an amazing woman. She spent a couple of years in Italy and France before she settled down in England. She is very fluent in Italian and French. She dropped a bombshell on Friday when she told me her husband is visiting her, staying for two weeks. He better not lay a finger on her if drunk, or there'd be Hell to pay.

You missed my point. All I have in the house is vodka.

Brilliant or not, if she's up to 3 litres a day of vodka, she needs professional help. Fast.

I like adding vodka to my cups of tea. :)

gmku 12.19.2009 03:24 PM

It's like alcohol straight, no taste, no nothing. Just ABV.

wellcharge 12.19.2009 03:27 PM

The branch of Wimpy I frequent is a crazy but wonderful place. The manager is Moroccan. One of the washer-uppers is Greek. The other is half Italian, and one of the other waitresses is Brazilian.

gmku 12.19.2009 03:30 PM

Find out what they say about 3 l a day. I'm curious.

knox 12.19.2009 04:33 PM

vodka is the shittest alcohol.
i am terrified of vodka because i used to have too much of it, not 3 liters much but enough to FUCK ME UP.
if hes going to travel to another country just to get drunk and beat her up i dont know what to say.
but at least you know what to ger her for christmas.

gmku 12.19.2009 04:38 PM

That's not very nice.

knox 12.19.2009 04:46 PM

Same here.
You must spread some [NEGATIVE] Reputation around before giving it to knox again.

wellcharge 12.19.2009 06:56 PM

if you actually need to spread neg reps around you can get me because i still think it's hilarious you couldn't use a coffee press properly

gmku 12.19.2009 06:59 PM

I'm pathetic. I admit it. Call the coffee police.

This isn't mean at all.

hevusa 12.19.2009 08:33 PM

3 liters a day is not possible.

automatic bzooty 12.19.2009 09:50 PM

gmku 12.19.2009 10:00 PM

phoenix 12.20.2009 07:00 AM

nom. Vodka. But no, 3 litres, daily? Ridiculous.. Unless you're homeless perhaps.

knox 12.20.2009 11:57 AM

not even. dont think one can survive 3 liters daily.
not without comas.

Keeping It Simple 12.20.2009 01:01 PM

I spoke to her today, and it was 2 litres of vodka a day, not 3. And some of you have spelt "litres" wrong.

knox 12.20.2009 01:04 PM

either way.
she deserves her world record.

I also asked her if she stopped drinking all that vodka every day on her doctor's advice. She told me she stopped it herself. She clearly realised it wasn't doing her any good. I suspect her husband was behind her 2 litres of vodka a day habit. The bastard. I want to reassure her that all men are not bastards like her husband.

knox 12.20.2009 01:19 PM

if they were both having 2 bottles of vodka a day it would be hard to know who was beating up who. or even if they would have the strength to do so. sorry if i sound mean but the woman is clearly making up stories.

If you had a husband who beat you when he was drunk, would that make you want to daily drink copious amounts of alcohol?

The War of Independence still strong in the mind of Americans, eh? :D

chicka 12.20.2009 01:43 PM

I should think it would make her want to run away. 2 liters is more reasonable. 3 is possible but not very healthy nor is 2 for that matter.
I accomplished the 3 in one day but I took a nap. Drank one in the morning, slept during the afternoon then got up around 5 and by 4 am had polished of 2 more liters. Southern Comfort as the agent with no mixers to get me sick.

You've clearly led yourself to believe you wouldn't, but the actuality, which you haven't experienced, is a whole different ballgame to an hypothesis.
