Never trust anything you buy in a bodega. Even the porn.

From the FA:
sold fake vodka containing methanol...
...Fake vodka has been found to contain high levels of methanol...


Ok, so which is it? Did the "Fake" vodka actually contain methanol, or is it just suspected to contain methanol because previous examples have contained methanol? If the booze is only alleged to contain methanol, then the Guardian may have libeled the poor shopkeeper.

And what's so "fake" about the lighters? Regardless of their safety, there is no indication that the lighters would fail to light your fag. A cigarette lighter that can, in the hands of a person of reasonable skill, light a cigarette could be considered a genuine cigarette lighter. If the issue is that the lighters are branded "clipper" but not a product of B&M, then perhaps this aspect could have been made more clear.


/Yah I know this is a serious issue.

I think they should have realized it was fake when the label said "Vodak"

I don't know the correct name, but those lighters that are not bics, not cricket, the one that are jewel-tone and clear and cost 50 cents? Most of them are illegal in Mexico and other places because they'll crack open if you drop them, extremely unpredictable flame, they'll melt on your dashboard, etc.

Yeah, but at 196 clicks? I'm pretty sure my old-arse athlon K7 650 Mhz gathering dust in the closet could have handled that traffic.

Paging teh vodak - is he still around?

 
IndyGemini 2008-08-24 05:17:29 PM  
The best part about these threads is the new Farkers trying to helpfully correct the submitter's spelling of 'vodak', which as all Farkers know, is already spelled correctly.

Warning: your stubbornness in misspelling 'vodka' may cause you to be labelled a looser.

/ that is all.

Was Vodak a character on "Starre Trekke"?

Here's how to ruin perfectly good vodak by making it into Kahlua.

Make gourmet coffee with 12 tablespoons of coffee and 4 cups of water. Very strong. The best is unfiltered camp coffee. If you are wimpy, use 12 teaspoons of instant coffee in 4 cups water.

Mix hot coffee with 4 cups of raw cane sugar until sugar dissolves.

Add a split vanilla bean, not vanilla extract. Cover and let sit another 10 minutes.

Add a fifth of at least 100 proof vodak, then store in a quart dark glass bottle.
