Farm to table artisanal burgers topped with locally grown greens and chipotle aioli (lol mayo), buns baked in-house daily? If the fries weren't done in rendered duck fat, then I hope you didn't touch them.

I'm definitely a foodie who thinks mayo sucks but aioli with shit in it that actually provides flavor is dope. Could take or leave the duck fat though. You also gotta replace lame ass lettuce with arugula. Fuck crunchy water.

Generally speaking a 12 oz beer, 5 oz glass of wine and 1.5 oz shot all have the same alcohol content. And about the same amount of calories as well.

So you can pretend you'll stay in better shape drinking liquor but it's not true, liquor has a lot of calories.

Didn't see anyone correct this, but the liquors I saw are less than 100 calories, the wines seem to sit around 150 and the beer, as has been mentioned, go up to 300. And that is 1.5 oz of liquor even though 1 oz seems to be the accepted serving size (not if you're serving it to me), 1 oz is in the 60's.

Alcohol cannot be stored by the body and only the liver can metabolize alcohol. Initially the body will convert alcohol into an energy conserving compound called ATP (adenosine triphosphate) which basically is the round about way for your body to store alcohol calories.

However, once you get beyond 1-2 drinks per drinking "session" your liver will start metabolizing it via an energy-wasting method called microsomal ethanol oxidizing system, which is basically body heat (and basically wasted if your body doesn't need heating). Alcohol converted via the microsomal system in essence don't "count" in the same way your typical food calorie as they aren't stored in any fashion, just dissipated via body heat.

That's interesting. I tend to get hot after 1 drink. Does that mean my liver is easily overloaded, or are my drinks just way too big?

Also, it seems to directly contradict something I was taught a long time ago that alcohol doesn't warm you up, it makes you feel warm but actually makes you colder and more susceptible to hypothermia.

I'm not sure the "body heat" generated actually translates to your core temperature. You feel warmer because your blood vessels dialate, especially the capillaries near the skin, but you lose body heat much more easily leading to a drop in core temperature.

like 80% of your blood is in your skin most of the time. Blood can either go shallow or go deep. Really only 2 options. Alcohol opens the capillaries and allows your blood, really forces your blood, to go shallow. This is bad for heat conservation. If you're super white like I am you can see it happen. When it's hot outside, your skin is pinkish. When it's cold outside, your skin is whiteish. That's nothing but the blood showing through. As solvent follows solute, warm flows to cool. Deep blood means you conserve more heat, shallow blood means you shed more heat.

But most (most) of your themoreceptors are also in your skin. The cells that help determine if you are hot or cold. So shallow blood, while it cools you faster, also makes you feel warmer.

Eat a big meal on a hot day sometime and watch your skin.

Nobody corrected it because there's nothing to correct.

12 oz of bud light = 110 calories
1.5 oz of most gin, rum, vodka or whiskey = 100 calories
5 oz of most red wine = 120 calories

A jigger is 1.5 oz. Mixed drinks are made with jiggers typically. So a mixed drink will have 1.5 oz of alcohol in it.

You wanna compare a 300 calories 12% ABV stout or DIPA to a 4.2% ABV typical drinking beer? I guess...

Here's my source

Most of the wine's I see are in the 150 range. All the the straight liquors I see are in the 90's. That's 50% more calories for wine. I'm not comparing anything to beer because, as has been said, it varies so wildly.

My wife is a nurse. Last night during a 69 session I slipped a finger in her ass. It upset her that I got it in easily and she didn't mind it. Redeemed prudish Christians are precious.

She also dressed up in a slutty batgirl outfit for my birthday. I'm working on her to try Harley Quinn from the Arkham series. She's got long legs. Works great in a skirt.

So marriage involves dealing with the in laws. My sister-in-law is goddamn moron who constantly tries to push alternative medicine on us. That homeopathy shit based on dilutions. I'm an engineer and scientist and I have thrown shit away in front of her when she drops it at our house. It's resulted in a lot of her picking fights with me. Shit sucks.

Was that the first time you stuck a finger in her ass? I'm not sure I would even consider someone my girlfriend, let alone marry them, without knowing full well I can stick things in her ass.
