Oldie but a goodie
It took me until you posted this image to figure out what direction to read the words. Yeesh!
They really made a monkey out of meeeeeeeee
This is some good vexillology circlejerk material
The more things change the more they stay the same. Before LinkedIn there were motivational posters that were hung around offices. It didn't take long for the demotivational poster to make its way into the culture just like these posts are now.
Something something in nineteen-ninety eight...
Honestly, this silly planet of the apes musical is one of my favorite things from the whole of the Simpsons. It's so stupid I laugh every time.
This donut is SLAAAAAAAAAAAAAMIN!!!!!!
I'm disabled!!
Agreed. Rollerblading is very 90s.
One story my husband shared with me was when he and my dad stopped into a local bar after working hard on home renovations all day. They planned to get some dinner and have some beer after a hard day's work but needed to wash their very dirty hands first. So they went back into the bathroom and washed their hands. Well apparently that was too "gay" for the owner of the bar and they went over to the bathroom and started saying things like "I don't know what you think you're doing in there" and "I just need to make sure you're not doing anything funny". So they ended up just leaving while the guy yelled at them saying they had to buy something.
A slightly different version of this concept also happened to my husband. At one point, 2 of our lady friends were talking about fashion and my husband, who is MUCH more fashionable than I am, chimed in. They proceeded to tell him that he's "not allowed to have an opinion because he's a man" which is the most double standard bullshit I've ever heard come out of any of my friends mouths. It's stuck with me for a long time now because I think it keeps me honest with myself about standards and reminds me to think about how opinions change when you flip genders.
I wanted to try out the Wray & Nephew rum that @Infynis used in a previous post and I think it turned out great! It was a LOT cheaper than I expected which is always a plus!
Recipe:
- 11/2 oz Virgin lslands Rum
- 11/2 oz Pineapple Juice
- 3/40z Cream Of Coconut
- 3/40z Fresh Orange Juice
- Fresh Grates Nutmeg Garnish
It's been a very long week working 10 hours days. So I'm ending it on a a sweet note with one of my favorite dessert cocktails!
Recipe:
- 1 oz Bourbon
- ¾ oz Mr. Coffee
- ¾ oz demerara syrup
- 1 egg yolk
- ½ oz heavy cream (oat milk and chickpea milk work good as alternatives)
- Nutmeg for garnish
Combine ingredients except nutmeg and dry shake (shake longer if using a milk substitute). Add ice and shake vigorously. Double strain into coup glass and grate a nutmeg on top for garnish.
My personal favorite version uses barista oat milk, but I'm sure you can use whatever milk or milk alternative you like.

Gettin' too big and stretchy for its pot!
Hey everyone, I just got back from vacation and I'm super happy to see that the community didn't implode! Thank you all for being respectful while I was away and making my first mod experience a good one. I'll have to find a mod buddy before my next vacation 🤣.
I'm back from vacation and it looks like this community died while I was away 😭. Not to worry, my husband turned into a mad scientist and decided he needed to make angostura ice cream. Is it a cocktail? Probably not, but I'll let you decide. If you want to give this a try without making homemade ice cream, you can just top some vanilla ice cream in angostura bitters and enjoy!
Thanks everyone for being respectful while I was away! I need to get a new mod buddy before my next vacation 🤣. I'll post an actual real cocktail soon.
This is my husband's creation and it's quite tasty! Also I'm aware that I've posted a lot of matcha cocktails lately, but I guess that's what I've been in the mood for 🤷.
Recipe:
- 3/4 oz. St. George spiced pear liqueur
- 2 oz. London dry gin
- 3/4 oz. Honey syrup
- 1 oz. Lemon juice
- 1 Egg white
- 1/4 tsp. Matcha powder
- 1 Basil leaf for garnish
Combine ingredients in a shaker and dry shake for about 20 seconds. Add ice and shake until chilled, about 10 more seconds. Double strain into a glass and garnish with a basil leaf.

Out of all the recipes I've tried, this is my absolute favorite non-alcoholic recipe from the book Regarding Cocktails! It does contain angostura bitters, but you can leave those out if you want the drink to be 100% alcohol free. But even if you don't, it contains no more than kombucha would. Excellent recipe to make in large batches that you can add soda water to when ready to drink!
Recipe:
- 1 oz. Lemon juice
- 1 oz. Pineapple juice
- 1 oz. Ginger syrup
- 1 Bar spoon of maple syrup
- A dash of angostura bitters
- 3 oz. Soda water
Combine all but the soda water and shake vigorously with ice. Strain into a Collins glass with a spear of ice and a straw. Carefully top with soda water. (There isn't a garnish in the book, but some suggestions I like to use include mint, cucumber, lemon peel, or candied ginger).
This is my first focaccia made from Claire Saffitz's book Dessert Person. Here's a video with the recipe for those interested.
Got a hold of some Chartreuse this weekend and had to make this classic!
Recipe:
- 3/4 ounce gin
- 3/4 ounce green Chartreuse
- 3/4 ounce maraschino liqueur
- 3/4 ounce lime juice
- brandied cherry for garnish
Shake with ice and strain into a Nick and Nora glass. Garnish with cherry and enjoy!

The first job I had was for a dinky little 15 person company. Obviously they didn't have loads of money and the way most corporate software contracts work is it's a lot cheaper for a period, like 1-2 years, and then the price increases. So they would jump ship before the price increase and use another product after that. So I ended up learning loads of different digital marketing platforms. I list them on my resume when I can, otherwise I just list the big ones and put something like "various digital marketing platforms". But thanks to all the magical algorithms that pick out what they need from all the entries, you pretty much have to have the exact platform they want on your resume in order for the bot to be satisfied. Some things I would understand, like if someone didn't know how to use key software for their field. But all the other stuff that gets tossed around should be considered "trainable" and not part of application requirements. Yet here we are...
