Mine is plain/lightly salted Doritos/tortilla chips dipped/scraped in unsalted butter.

I'm now wondering whether this is a little too specific of a question and I just really needed somewhere to get this off my chest...

Drinking shots of gin.

The place I frequent has the same price for whisky, whiskey (with an e), and vodka.

The bartender says I'm the only person who opts for shots of gin as first preference.

Why is there a difference between whisky and whiskey?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Generally speaking, whiskys are Scottish in origin, while whiskeys may come from any country. But there is no hard-and-fast rule about it.

Ask the Irish.

Huh. Interesting. I don't think I've ever tried gin as a shot.

Why would you feel guilty that? Why would that be socially unacceptable? Sure, it's uncommon, but it's fine.
