    ok so I don’t really drink alcohol, but some online friends got me to try soju. Grabbed some from the store and… I don’t get it. very much an alcohol taste to it. I can taste the plum in it, but it’s just not that great imo.

      As an alcoholic, alcohol literally tastes bad and your brain only starts liking it once it recognizes the high. I mean it’s literally ethanol, a poison

      Much like weed smelling bad to non smokers

        As kid I thought beer tasted great and weed smelled divine.

          Unless it’s fucking corona, which smells like armpits. Every time someone opens one I check if it’s coming from me

            Lol. Fucking Corona. I don’t mind the taste, but goddamn people love putting limes in those goddamn things and ruining a perfectly good beer.

        I’m not an alcoholic, but used to drink wodka regularly when going out like decades ago. Even today when I smell non scented hand sanitizer, I can feel a little buzz in my brain.

      Gotta drink it extremely cold. Still kinda tastes like alcohol (because it is alcohol) but way more easily drinkable.
