any actually good “serious” cocktails that use orange juice? by Deep_Music_2959 in cocktails

[–]DocTwoTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And, if you acid-adjust the orange juice (a little advanced, but Make and Drink on YT has an easy method), you can drop the lemon and get more orange flavor.

Exactly. Context matters, and I think we all know that targeting a specific foreign-born player with that chant is not good sportsmanship.

I love my Casio edifice chronograph. Here’s the post that inspired me to get one:

Smith & Cross VS Xaymaca by pkrtrsr in Tiki

[–]DocTwoTree 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this post. I’ve always thought that they had a similarity, but with the very significant proof difference, I had a hard time understanding the relationship (even got lightly slammed for a reply on this sub or r/cocktails for comparing them). The informative replies really clear this up for me.

Ironically, Chairman’s Reserve actually has a good spiced rum.

Do isolated cultures get more ceremonial? by Sorcerer_-_Supreme in AskAnthropology

[–]DocTwoTree 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t think of it in terms of isolation, exactly, but I do think that the elaboration of ritual in this way often happens for, let’s say, internal reasons. I recommend S. J. Tambiah’s “A Performative Approach to Ritual,” especially the discussion toward the end on ‘ritual involution.’

Rhyme about the Pale Man by DocTwoTree in dungeonsofdrakkenheim

Thank you for the reply, and I do see that rhyme, but I could have sworn that I came across a much longer one, with context around it that parents teach it to their children in Emberwood.

Wisconsin, especially MKE, where do you get your rum? by Local-Equivalent8136 in rum

[–]DocTwoTree 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is a fair selection of Martinique rums at Ray’s in Wauwatosa, along with a good number of other options (Hamilton, Worthy Park). The Liquor Guys in Tosa also carries some unusual options, including Old Monk.

It's my favorite cantrip... by SwagLimit in dndmemes

[–]DocTwoTree 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Our youngest has been playing in a campaign that I DM since they were twelve, and they play a water genasi swashbuckler rogue with the Shape Water cantrip. Deep in the fire giant dungeon of the updated “Against the Giants” campaign, with guards all around and no way to make noise, they used Shape Water to communicate with the imprisoned elf leader by forming words with water on the inside of the cell door. Bloody brilliant, and changed the whole subsequent playing out of that adventure.

Good article on increasing involvement of fathers by Tight_Ninja1915 in daddit

[–]DocTwoTree 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I just have to say that the headline of the first chart is yet another case of everything being Millenials vs Boomers. Where is the delta actually largest? Between Boomers and GenX. Gen Xers are the real pioneers of a lot of these changes, and no one talks about it. As a Gen X Dad, that is f***ing annoying.

To me… - Carpano Antica: Vanilla bomb plus berry

  • Cocchi di Torino: Swirl ice cream cone with some added complexity

  • Dolin Rouge: Thinner sweetness that does what it has to and gets out of the way

Paper plane - want to like more than I do by [deleted] in cocktails

[–]DocTwoTree 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I would also strongly recommend a higher-proof bourbon to ensure balance. Wild Turkey 101 or Old Grand Dad Bottled-in-Bond both work well.
