At the local grocery, two employees (kids) talking:
"Didja hear Biden's gonna make everyone use the brown bags from now on?"
"Jesus Christ, that moron. I'm gonna tape them all up so's the people can't pull them apart."
"Hyuck, hyuck, hyuck, hyuck, hyuck, hyuck."

I was walking down Spring Garden Rd (Halifax) not too long ago when a small group of girls were walking the opposite way and as we crossed paths....
"I'm glad I didn't wake up with someone this morning...wow"
(Could have been the whiskey, might have been the gin...)
Vaguely related: There was a DJ in Canada that was known for cold-calling celebrities on air. So the story goes, the morning after the Grey Cup, he called the hotel room of one of the star players on the winning team. A groggy woman answered. The DJ was taken aback but asked, "Can I speak to Mike Widgeon? " The woman responded (rustle, rustle, rustle, shake, shake, shake, "Hey, is your name Mike?" The rest of the interview was anti-climatic.

How much you can bring the temperature down is mostly about the total heat the cold substance can take out of the warmer whisky before thermal equilibrium is reached. I suspect that any heat loss through evaporation is negligible and the difference made by diluting even less. The real determining factors are the mass and specific heat of the cold stuff plus in the case of the ice the latent heat of fusion. I am still trying to avoid actually looking up numbers and doing calculations but the liquid nitrogen was a bit of an over statement. As Scott said over the range from the ice box to equilibrium temperature heat of fusion is going to be the dominant factor. Even without it though there aren't many things with a higher specific heat water either. I should really have been thinking about specific heat times density to get the heat for equal volumes of ice and stone as opposed to equal mass though. I would guess water still has the edge but they're on the same order of magnitude. Without looking it up I would guess Scott's stone or some specialized glass or ceramic would be a better choice of material than miami's stainless steel. Not knowing for sure is what may eventually drive me to looking up the actual numbers. Back when I was in college and had a Swede for a roommate we always had a bottle of aquavit in the freezer and generally a few shot glasses as well just to keep that much colder. I'm kind of a cube man myself but I would think a small glass with thin walls and a thick bottom might be just as good a thing for the purist to keep in the freezer as anything else.
Yeah, they ask everyone here, too. It was the way she kept checking and making sure the kid understood she could come back with questions anytime. "We really don't want you to screw this up"
Yeah, no kidding. Here (well, in Ohio, I guess), she'd have a chance to find a druggist who would refuse to sell her the stuff.
They have to ask everybody that about everything here. But still, kind of cringey.
This is a pretty good thread. Jacked to hell 3 posts in.

I was at the Chemist waiting to pick up a prescription and ahead of my was a girl in a school uniform picking up a script, obviously for the first time. The pharmacist kept asking her if she had any questions, if someone had explained to her how to take it, if she had any questions, if the doctor had discussed everything she needed to know, if she had any questions, and be sure to come back if you are wondering about anything.
Somehow, I don't think it was acne medicine.
