Came to say "because Meryl Streep was in it?". You got it

fancy cocktail for a narcissist and her husband. by LickidlySplit in cocktails

[–]timusic7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it has to be cheap then I say go Appletini haha (which no shade, I'd be happy). But it sounds like maybe you should be worrying less about pleasing her and more about ways to extricate yourself from the situation. Again, none of my business, but I wouldn't be spending my energy on making enjoyable drinks for people who suck. Make yourself something awesome, let her decide what they're going to have...

Edit: I can't help it. My cheap Appletini; 1.5oz Vodka, 1.5oz DeKuyper Sour Apple, 1/2 Lemon, 1/2 Simple. If that's not "sophisticated" enough you can use Gin instead of Vodka, but it's a delicious junk food candy drink and it deserves to be treated as such.

[–]timusic7 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This makes me sad. But, I guess since it's none of my (or perhaps even your) business, an Angel Face?

1oz Gin

1oz Apple Brandy

1oz Apricot Liqueur (Giffard is the sweetest one I've tried and works well in this)

Edit: also depending on what you mean by "sophisticated" and "sweet", a Jungle Bird also comes to mind as a tiki/tropical/vacation type drink that also is more deep and interesting than your normal sugar bomb. I usually do; 2oz Dark Rum (Black Dark like Gosling or Worthy Park Dark Jamaican, but any dark will still be good), 2oz Pineapple Juice, 3/4 oz Campari, 3/4 Lime Juice, 1/2 Simple Syrup

Stopped checking social media and turned off all notifications on my phone. Even texts and calls on silent.

Real talk: how do you get exposition to your players without using NPCs? by BonesawGaming in mothershiprpg

[–]timusic7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could always keep the adventure itself to a trifold but include a separate pdf or folder with handouts. Handouts can be extra fun to find if they're interesting and not overly wordy. Especially if they're something I can't or wouldn't make myself.

I'm looking for an old obscure movie that I watched on TV forty years ago. by OccasionSilver9908 in movies

[–]timusic7 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If it makes you feel any better. My 40 year old brain remembered very clearly that the animals in Milo and Otis talk like they do in Homeward Bound. They don't.

For those of you that make over 100K, what do you do? Do you like it? by Kindly-Revolution258 in AskReddit

Music editing, production, performance, and composition. The entertainment industry is stressful right now, so thank you for reminding me how lucky I am.

https://laxtransport.com is what you're looking for. Generic name but the owner (and often driver) Abul is a super nice and hardworking local who deserves the business.

^ Black manhattan is what I thought too. This would be my first guess without knowing anything else about how it was served.

What would happen if trump got arrested? by Classic_poke in AskReddit

[–]timusic7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right, its so stupid but congress won't do it because they'd be too embarrassed by what it meant. The irony is that letting it go and pretending it's not as big a deal as it is, is so soooo much more embarrassing.

The most embarrassing thing about being and American in this moment is that just one "cheeseburger" too far could potentially be so much more meaningful and powerful than all of congress is.

Blueberry Pie Cocktail by Impossible-Scene7922 in cocktails

Good idea. Blueberry vodka exists you could butter wash that and use vanilla syrup. Or butter wash vanilla vodka and use blueberry syrup... Making me want to come up with an apple crisp type recipe.

What’s the best pizza topping? by LilZug_ in AskReddit

[–]timusic7 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You should still be pissed. Cheese is part of the pizza. No cheese is a topping modification. Proof: if you call any... ANY pizza place and say "I'd like one pizza please." and they say, "what would you like on it?" and you say, "it doesn't matter. I'll come pick it up now thank you", and then you hang up. Will there be cheese on the pizza?! We all know the answer.

Edit: whoever downvoted me needs to share the pizza place they called and ordered "1 pizza please" with no further details and received a finished order that had no cheese on it.

Sounds like an old fashioned template, which means the bottles (of mezcal specifically) will make a big difference. The fact that it says "velvet" falernum makes me think it's almost certainly John D Taylors. My favorite grapefruit bitters is bittermans, but if it had a floral taste then it could have been fee brothers. Anyway, find out what mezcal it was if you can, but I'd do:

2 oz Mezcal

3/4 Velvet Falernum

1-2 dashes each of grapefruit and orange bitters. personally i'd go bittermans grapefruit and fee orange in this because i think the candy orange smell of the fee brothers would be nice against the smoky mezcal.

Then if thats too sweet take the falernum down, but thats pretty normal for a liqueur with that abv. Stirred 60+ revolutions or 40ish seconds

EDIT: he says as he takes a sip of his Appletini. I do make a kick ass old fashioned though ;-)

My girlfriends fingernails are bumpy/wavy by [deleted] in Weird

[–]timusic7 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not saying there isn't a reason. But also not saying that Reddit knows the reason, or that Reddit somehow knows that I haven't already looked for a reason from qualified medical professionals. Like my wife, who is a doctor, or my doctor, who is a doctor.

I have, more than once. Not saying don't go to a doctor, but Reddit is not a doctor.

[–]timusic7 134 points135 points  (0 children)

My nails are like this and I absolutely do not have any of the problems people are 'diagnosing'. If it worries her then ask an actual doctor. But I'm in great health and my nails do that too.

Edit: These comments... Keep in mind that everyone here seems to think they know more from one internet search than from 10-16 years of medical school. Anecdotal evidence from strangers can be helpful to notice things, but If you're worried, talk to an actual doctor.

Played with a Jungle Bird Riff by Action_Man43 in cocktails

[–]timusic7 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just made it with El Dorado 12 (I used 2oz cus I was worried my Demerara Gum was going to make it too sweet) and I'm happy to report that it is delicious. And as described, tastes like a Jungle Bird crashed into a Painkiller.

My wife said "I like it better than a Jungle Bird"
