WHY? Is It The Name? Is It The Lemon And Salt? Is It The Tiny Little Sombrero You Get With Some Of Them?
I'm aware of the backlash that this comment will stir up (I'm lookin' at YOU, Lucas! :-P), but I learned that I may be more capable of doing shots of tequila than Lucas or Craig. For those of you who don't know, Lucas has a magical power. It's to get me to drink and eat the strangest things that I normally don't see the point in eating/drinking, often in under three hours of persuading, goading and threatening. Nobody else can come close.
Lucas was building this tequila thing up, suggesting I have something to chase it with afterwards, as the stuff apparently burns the back of your throat. I took a little sip to see what it tasted like (absolutely nothing, with a faint aftertaste of something used to strip paint), then just took the whole shot. Then waited.
Then waited.
Then waited some more.
Then because Lucas was encouraging me to chase it (apparently it really burns, remember?), I did. That was the most exciting part of the experience. Might as well have chased it with chilli.
One thing really confuses me. The stuff has absolutely (or near enough to) no flavour. And it induces a slight burning sensation in the back of your throat. Big deal. I'm sure there are more exciting ways to get drunk :D
The only way I'm going to drink that stuff again is if money's involved.
Or possibly if Lucas is involved.

SILENCE! I concur.
See, oh Tedlor, I was more worried about the tequila shot for myself that for you, as I'd never actually done straight tequila shots before. It actually wasn't bad at all. Don't make me call the famous lawyer Zoidberg Ramirez to argue you down. Counsellor?
"Grrrracias."

Hahahaha! Where's yer messiah NOW, Lucas?
But yes, at least you see where I'm coming from with the anti-climax thing.

And also, YES! That is my power. I'm also very good at getting you to go places like Karaoke, and do things like sing. Maybe I am the Devil™.
Hey Ted, I'm tagging you for this meme. You just copy the four headings, fill them in yourself, post it on your blog, and then tag some other people.
