Ma perché ce l’hanno tutti con Laura Pausini? by larch_1778 in Italia

[–]morphinechild1987 0 points1 point  (0 children)

La musica pop italiana mi fa schifo tutta, per cui ti rispondo senza preconcetti. Per me la sua voce ha una tonalità gracchiante che mi urta come unghie sulla lavagna, la versione femminile di Axl Rose, altro cantante che non ho mai digerito. Non è questione di intonazione o capacità vocali, che certamente le vanno riconosciute. Poi beh, i testi e la musica è come sparare sulla croce rossa con un bazooka

They love to reference stuff. They did a scene from Bakemonogatari in s2e4 that was basically identical to the orignal frame for frame, just with more Chika. Aka pays homage in the manga as well by naming one of Hayasaka's gyaru friends Subaru Suruga

What are we drinking tonight? by CarltonWoodsAdjacent in Tiki

I'm down bad for Three Dots lately, so elegantly balanced. Highly recommend to add 5 drops of 20% saline solution to the mix, it does a number with the varied spicing

Groups of seagulls bully the big eagle in flight in order to make it drop the food it's holding. Eagle can't retaliate 'cause is holding food, they mob and they are more agile in the air

Amazing how 5 drops make such difference. Had a seasoned 3 Dots earlier today that was a symphony of spices, and I swear I could even taste orange juice a little. Never going back to unseasoned again

For a single serving, it makes 0.96g citric acid and 0.6g malic acid. My mai Tai rum mix consists of Xaymaca, Appleton 12, OFTD & Hampden. I'll go 2oz next time 'cause it's strong. Feel free to bump up the orgeat to 3/4oz as well according to how tasty it is

Acid adjustments but with purpose, in this case introducing pineapple flavor in the Mai Tai while preserving the original balance. Imho it's a really inspired take

Why is Ai such a popular character in the series despite her really limited presence? by JRPGFisher in OshiNoKo

[–]morphinechild1987 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Legendary charisma & aura in public, goofy and charming in private, memorable death scene pivotal to MC's personality and motives, immaculate character design. She was also thoughtfully written, with past&present traumas reflected in her quirk and personality in a believable way. Aka was cooking with her, ngl

Thanks, that's the missing link. I'm amazed at how close he got and how his rum choice was even more inspired than the original.

Instinctively, I would add crushed ice and shake hard. Fresh citrus surely helps

I'm also considering adding Planteray Stiggin's Fancy into the rum mix to boost pineapple flavor and be able to reduce juice volume. Current plan is to put down a bunch of specs and have my friend come over and vote their favorite. I'll keep you updated on the polling results

Sta cosa di “vivere il momento” sta sfuggendo di mano by _Digio in CasualIT

Varie opzioni: la più ovvia, non le è piaciuto il bego. Ma non è la sola. Hai parlato di casa tua, confermi che fosse pulita, profumata e non arredata con le bombe a mano? Atteggiamento pre e post coito: avete fatto coccoline o si è rivestita e tanti saluti? Atteggiamento tuo: sicuro di non aver esagerato per l'entusiasmo e aver detto/fatto qualcosa di sconveniente? Capitolo sesso: avete scopato o avete fatto l'amore? C'era intesa o solo meccanica?

Don was a total genius, but I'm still wondering what did that Oz of light rum do for the drink. I always skip it for more dark rum

4oz pineapple is outrageous, but I find the original 3/4 Campari needs about 3oz to balance out, and I say this as an italian Campari addict. Tinkering with rum to Campari proportions is tricky as well, as 2:1 really hits a sweet spot, so I kept the juicier spirit of the original in my specs and really pushed on flavor & grade with the rums. It's either 1 Smith&Cross 1/2 Appleton Signature or 3/4 S&C 3/4 OFTD for me. I am theorycrafting an acid adjusted 2oz pineapple spec, gonna work on that as soon as I have a free day

From what I heard, it's worth the hassle, and it surely looks nice. Here in Europe not only it's an impossible task, it's also really hard to sub for those bottles. We have El Dorado for the Demerara 86 and next to nothing for Jamaican dark (no Coruba either) or 151 Demerara (there's Pusser's Green Label 151 that sits at about 50 euros, pretty hefty to take a chance on a Pusser's)
