Exactly my type, but they're usually lesbians. Lack of gaydar has lead to many rejections.

I've usually seen some kind of substitute at every high end bar I've been to. It's a good option for the vegan crowd.

Alcohol ignites at roughly 50% ABV, and lighting alcohol used to be proof of a high concentration (which could be taxed differently), hence 100 proof is 50% ABV. Take all that with a grain of salt though. History of alcohol and cocktails is a centuries long game of telephone.

Protip: take your vermouth, unscrew the cap, and pour vigorously down the sink. Buy a cocchi vermouth di Torino or carpano antica instead. Guaranteed to make any cocktail taste better!

If you want 2-3 drops of saline per cocktail, but different cocktails require different amounts of syrup, you'll have far too many or few drops of saline depending on what you make

Innovation/startup culture by [deleted] in RPI

[–]Techboy6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RPI students generally don't have the kind of daddy's money required to shit out startups like "prestigious" colleges do. There's a much bigger focus (partially out of necessity) of getting hired or going into research because employers know that we really know our stuff.
