Light up your day

It’s deepavali. I dont celebrate it, technically, buy i celebrate it entertaintmently.

Just like all d festivals our beautiful country has.

Just drank a load of toddy, among other shit, to get into da mood.

Happy Deepavali yall! Get drunk.

Will leave u with dis skilled performance i stumbled upon thanks to Khabir. A white guy, Michał Rudaś, of Poland, singing in Sanskrit.

Beautiful song. Fuckin amazing performance. For a white guy.

And gerls, he’s quite cute. Not like me, but boleh la. And suitably emotional. Haha

Hopefully he’ll be performing in KL next year.

Enjoy!

On da roof

Lot 10 has a new rooftop, and its cool. Checked out d launch of Teeq Brasserie (reservations: 03-2782 3555) last nite with drinking sidekick Joleen.

It used to be a parking lot. YTL has turned it into sumtin called the Forest in the City, with the restaurant, a new club called Rootz, a fitness centre & Actors Studio.

The boxx & the malt

Hit a a Remy Martin new product launch in some bar recently in Kota Damansara, and a tasting by The Glenlivet at some bar in Hartamas.

Delicious freezing shots

Remy Martin now allows u to drink the cognac from a dispenser that chills it to minus 18C! Gosh!

Easier done than said

Easier done than said

Ever got brain freeze by drinkin liquor neat? It’s possible if u have a whole glass of dis stuff.

Pleasure box

The bottle is placed inverted on the box, and the cognac flows thru and emerges out via a tap, extra cold. Simple.

At the launch at Parking, we were handed shooters – i had like 7, and they’re incredibly smooth and taste real good!

Thing is there only four units of these meant for Malaysia, so your luck which bar they’re being rotated at. If u spot a red box on the bar, it’s your lucky day.

Dis friendly Scottish dude Darren Hosie, Chivas Brothers’ International Brand Ambassador, led The Glenlivet tasting at Roponggi. The Glenlivet is a pioneering brand in Scotland’s single-malt industry, and has been around for more than 150 years.

Dude instructs us to add some water into each glass of Glenlivet – there were several types there, ranging from 12 years to 25 years – then give it a sniff, and a sip. Based on his short presentation about each Glenlivet, we were supposed to guess which one we were tasting.

I find this kind of exercises pretty futile coz we aint experts to make guesses. A better way would have been to tell us what we were having, so we can appreciate and understand it better. Also, the amount of water added into each sample varies, giving different opinions on the strength and power of d Scotch.

Anyway, we drink all of em down, coz they were dam good. Met Sue Lynn, a food blogger who did a great job to sort our bites from d menu.

Trippy bar display, trippier when drunk

Hittin da source

Nutin like a brewery visit to spark up yor life. That’s where u can get brew that’s real fresh – any fresher u gotta brew it yourself! (Hmmm – will attempt dat soon.)

Hit Carlsberg one evening last week with a coupla boys, Mad Max & Adian. Was there like, on time. 6pm sharp. Wuz lookin forward to a Connor’s session, the new draft stout produced locally by Carlsberg Malaysia.

Black stuff on d house

Black stuff on tap

Was invited by Robbie (of AMC), dis dude dat has a supercool collection of classic rides, including a ’63 Buick and a ’65 Mustang! Bitch.

Start by sippping on an ice-cold glass of  Connor’s. It’s texture is pretty smooth and light. Goes down easy. Taste-wise it’s quite heavy on the malt, with a lingering, roasty finish.

Yea it aint common (yet), but have had it at dat German pub Deutsches Haus n Brussels Beer Cafe.

Maybe I’ll chat with d brewer soon about d drink.

We down our drinks coz sum chick called Erin (i think) takes us on a short tour of d facilities (ie, where da shit’s made) to explain how da shit’s made. Sumtin about fire, alcohol and alien crop circles.

I guess i wasnt really listenin.

a

Take that! Met a Brit durin d brewery tour n showed 'em how to play

We’re soon back at d lounge and back at our job. Mmmm, nutin in d world like bar without a cashier.

Goddam Max is always fuckin w his phone when am tryin to drink wit him. Bitch.

He's a bit psychotic, so when he talks to himself, he pretends he's on d phone

Dis time, he paid for it.

Was d last call at d bar. I says to him “Dafuck man, u’re still one glass behind me. All nite man! Come ‘on!! Fuckin embarassment to d Kadazans.”

“OK OK!”

So i get myself one more, and two for him.

Three to go

Three to go. And lookin cocky

Before long, he rushes to d john. I tail him.

"Gotta make it to d loo! No time to talk to d chick in blue"

"Outta my way! Gotta make it to d loo. No time to talk to d chick in d blue tube."

Fucker spews his drinks n dinner. Pussy.

Goddam maggot tryin to get rid of d evidence. I should have stepped on his head n shoved it in, but am just too nice sumtimes

Of course am laughin my ass off as he pukes. I say “serves u right dick. U were on d phone all nite, and not focused. Dis wat can happen. Get out there n finish your drink u piece-of-shit maggot!” He cant do it, so he lost 10 points.

But Max accepted dat he had learnt sumtin valuable dat nite.

He should have thanked me. Maybe he did, i dunno.

Guys cant multi-task.

Sallgood. It’s part of his two-month probation / training. Max applied to join d Drinking Army a year ago coz he wants to learn to party like a pro n do it right, but we rejected him.

This time d committee approved his request. He’s now a freshie recruit (maggot), and hopes to be formally accepted and graduate in two months, depending on his performance. Might be updating his progress here.

It aint easy – he has to take a lot of shit without protesting, n merciless ragging from d whole crew during this training period. Like a good grasshopper.
