Nah, I feel fine, no hangover at all, not even a trace, although there's still about 1/4 of the bottle left
If I drank that much, I'd feel like death warmed over right now. I definitely can't keep up with you.

You know the last time I visited my aunt and uncle was was the Summer of SARS

The SARSstock concert with the Stones & AC/DC, that was the day we got back to Toronto

Me & my Da drove down for one big nostalgic vacation with my little brothers

That's how long ago it was, time flies

I just looked them up, I was wondering where the propane came in.
They use something similar when filming during mosquito season in Scotland to keep them off the actors and crew although the CO2 comes out of a bottle rather than off a flame.
Not such a big problem down here in England but I do remember an occasion when we were filming at a WWII vehicle museum in Norfolk where we were all suffering badly from the little bastards. After a quick recce around the site, I discovered that they were laying their eggs in the little pools of water collecting in the tarps covering vehicles stored outside.
A little bit of bleach in all the nearby pools really reduced the problem.
I do feel a bit guilty about damaging the canvas, I wouldn't have wanted to be there when they discovered all the bleached and holed tarp's.
I now know that a bit of detergent breaking the surface tension would have been just as efficient and would have been harmless to the canvas.
Mosquito Magnet makes the best ones. It's not just CO2, they use some kind of tablet that simulates mammal sweat as well.
CO2, heat and moisture all come off a propane flame and mimic your breath.
And 1-Octen-3-ol from tablets.

WTH?

Suddenly people are all honking their horns down the road, sounds like dozens of cars

No idea what that means

I'm definitely a whisky neat man...

But 3/4 bottle and I'm a bag of hammers the next day.

It's the regular drinking that boosts your liver enzymes... nothing to glorify unnecessarily.

My uncle just died, one for me, one for my homies

You think I would slam a whole bottle of Lagavulin on any old day ?
