You don't get invited to many parties, do you?

some more overrated filth:
...
- having kids (oops, did I just say that)
I found "having kids" to be least outrageous personally
minus Vodka of course:eww:CCCToad on 28/10/2009 at 22:15
I think that would depend on the brand in question. Smirnoff definitely qualifies as "overrated filth", while Ciroc is decent.

Nope. I'm not a party guy. In fact, that's another thing that's overrated - parties.

Actually, pretty much all vodka is overrated filth. It's the base spirit in the Emperor's New Cocktail. It's a rube's drink.
It's rubbing alcohol: A classless spirit, devoid of flavor. Comparing two different commercially made vodkas is like comparing Dasani water to Aquafina.
There isn't a single cocktail made with vodka that isn't a pale imitation of a better drink made with gin. It's best used in fruity drinks for girls where you hide the taste of alcohol altogether.
Drink whisky. Drink rum. Drink tequila. Drink gin. But for crissakes, don't waste your money on vodka.

There is such a thing as nice vodka. Cracovia, Wyborowa and Zubrowka, to name a few. Gin is a better mixer, though.
Also, anyone who doesn't like beer clearly didn't spend enough time pretending to like it as a young'un to acquire the taste. Unless you're referring to the mass-marketed filth that far too many people drink.

I can get into the russian/polish vodka routine: sitting around a dinner table, ice-cold-as-fuck, if you open a bottle - you finish a bottle, and you drink it in shots that make your eyes bleed. Drinking pure alcohol, like a man. That's fine. I prefer whisky, but I can still get into that.
But if you're one of the fags that goes into a bar and only orders Grey Goose (or Belvedere, or Ciroc or whatever the fuck you think the current trendy vodka is) and tonic, but won't touch Absolut (or Stoli or whatever passe vodka the marketing you've consumed has deemed unacceptable), you're just a jackass.

We've had this discussion before, or rather I think you and Gray did iirc, however I have to point out that the above is bulllllllllllllsheeeeeeiiiiiiiiiitttttttt when it comes to one of my favourite drinks.
The White Russian.
And it definitely tastes smoother the pricier the vodka.
I typically use this stuff:

You can relax, I'm not. I pretty much never mix good vodka, with the occasional exception of Zubrowka which goes very well with apple juice.

I'm talking classic cocktails - not abominations popularized by Coen Bros. fanbois. ;)
And if you can tell the difference between a Finlandia White Russian and an Absolut, I'd say you were lying.
