Ha! We never have whiskey in the house. Usually beer, rum and tequila. Never developed a taste for that brown swill.
Nobody likes a quitter. Remember, with enough willpower you can do it.
Wow! I love Ezra Brooks!
Not my fault, I’m drinking as much as I can.
The consumer needs to be taught how to .ake mixed drinks. And how to imbibe safely.
Marijuana is a big factor here as well.
There are WAY too many choices in the liquor store
^^This^^
These earning numbers are in the space of a single quarter. It is not a trend.
“Once they banned smoking from bars, it no longer was fun to drink.
And tattoos killed the strip clubs.”
Lol boomers are so out of touch it’s hilarious.
On any given night uptown Dallas, downtown Austin will packed shoulder to shoulder with people drinking and dancing. Can’t smoke in either for decades now. Most of the people who are not in either place were not alive when you could smoke inside in those cities.
As for strip dips again go to any one in Dallas or Austin on a Friday afternoon let alone night there will be a wait to get in this says nothing of the dozens of breastraunts that have 20-30s in bras and G strings running around all day and night. The new one opened in the Colony Texas there was a 3 hour wait on opening night to get in. Dallas has 10s for days in a five mile radius of Frisco there is 6 bras and G string bars / sports bars it’s football season packed solid every day. My buddy is part owner of the new one in the Colony their Grapevine location was the top TABC sales location by gross revenue in all of DFW and in the top 5 in the state. You can’t not make money with a breastaurant the thirst of middle age men is unlimited. Funny thing is every girl working has a husband , multiple boyfriends or sugar daddies or girlfriend every single one none are single.
Smoke is not allowed and hasn’t been for so long only genX barely remembers when you could none of genZ was alive when you could.
A press release on October 19 doesn’t really count as “just”. The use of the word is intended to imply that the user if the word is on top of things.
Oh let’s name her, Nancy Pelosi. Who also now will have more time to cconsume more. They should be rolling strong again real soon. 😁🤙
Why drink alcohol, if you can get cheap buzz from marihuana!
Rehab is for quitters.
I’m making up for you;-)
“Tequila and mezcal sales outpaced whiskey for the first time in 2023.”
An outrageous lack of taste and refinement.
I wonder if those numbers will hold when the deportations are over.
Stick with the Victory gin.
Nothing “good” ever came from drinking alcohol. Beer is bad enough, but spirits are so much stronger.
Yes, I’m (now) a “teetotaler”. Not alcoholics, but my wife and I decided years ago to give up alcohol. It caused problems and solved NONE!
Being brought up in an alcoholic household, I know from where I speak.
AI Overview
Yes, it is better not to drink alcohol because no level of consumption is completely safe, and even moderate drinking increases health risks like cancer and heart disease. Not drinking is the only way to completely avoid alcohol’s risks and can lead to immediate benefits like better sleep, improved mental clarity, and lower blood pressure.
Just one or an occasional drink is okay, right? Becoming drunk or impaired ALWAYS starts with ONE drink.
DON’T take the FIRST one and you’ll be better off.
“Bulleit”
It is a first rate, dry high-rye bourbon.
,,, the wine industry’s taking a hiding too.
I’ve always found it (sugary) sweet.
Knob Creek or Makers in my cupboard.
