About six times... Vodak Myths seem to be their fallback "we have no ideas left" filler.

A great use is to keep clothes clean. A couple of professional theatre companies I've been to use this trick extensively.

It's a mathematical wonder: it can turn a 2 into a 7 or a 5 into a 10.

Couldn't you do most of that with rubbing alcohol, at a significantly lower cost?

I've tried that, and it wasn't the worst, especially for the money the person spent on it.

What is the worst is some off- off- brand I tried at a party. The taste was a rancid blend of kerosene and that white stuff that forms on battery terminals. I looked at the label and discovered that it was "blended," 20% bourbon and 80% neutral spirits. I stopped drinking it well before I went blind, so no harm no foul.

 
Impudent Domain 2008-03-23 02:00:40 PM  
ANGRYMACFACE is correct. it cannot taste good, (unless it its the flavored variety) Because real Vodka is tasteless, odorless, and colorless.

That is why it is such a good mixer. And that is why it is stupid to pay for the very expensive variety.

Is this the new "Coke" list, in which people endlessly post things that can be done with Coke, and in this case Vodka, but in reality, none of it is true (and in this case, viable, given the alternatives and the costs)?

 
CaptainBeer 2008-03-23 02:03:49 PM  
They say you can soak your socks in it, put hem on your feet, then lace up a new pair of spikes or skates or just regular shoes to soften them up and break them in.

I just always used rubbing alcohol - seems like a waste of good liquor to do anything but drink it

 
RoyBatty 2008-03-23 02:05:06 PM  
I've tried deep frying donuts in it, but it didn't end up so good.

Vodak is ethanol, rubbing alcohol is isopropyl (sp?). Many of the tips would work, but probably not as well.

Maybe a chemist type will stop in and enlighten us with knowledge of the superior magic that is ethanol.

OK, I understand pencil lead, but how do you know what clown penis tastes like?

eqtworld: Urban Dictionary: vodak- 152 up, 65 down

Further proof that even the most idiotic brainfart can become a meme.

Typical FARK reader: "Vodak! LOL! It's funny and I don't know why! OMGWTFLOLBBQ"

tags- stupid meme retarded moronic vodka


I came here to say something like this, but urban dictionary has said it better. If we ever manage to make a list of tired cliches that are banned from headlines, vodak goes on the list, along with "wait, what?"

8. Fill a sixteen-ounce trigger-spray bottle and spray bees or wasps to kill them.

I might be wrong but I thought Mythbusters disproved this one.

Fark that. Drink all sixteen ounces quickly so the stings no longer hurt.

It is probably cheaper to buy some denatured ethanol at the hardware store.

 
Dinobot 2008-03-23 02:14:22 PM  
You can also kill weeds with vodka; just mix 1 oz of vodka, 2 cups of water and a couple of drops of liquid soap into a spray bottle, and just spray it onto those pesky garden weeds, just make sure its sunny as it won't work in the shade.

When I worked at a science museum, a co-worker and I used to sneak into the biology lab and do test-tubes full of pharmaceutical-grade absolute ethanol mixed with the sugar they used to feed yeast cells. Good times.

take a cotton swab and dip it in vodka or any other alcohol.

My favorite Vodka by far as well. I had it the first time at Bay Hill, I ordered a drink (with vodka) and the bartender said "Are you sure you wouldn't like Kettle One instead? It's what Mr. Palmer prefers." So theres one more reason to like Arnold Palmer.
