    He was pretty good for his time.

    Yeah but the best thinkers of his time were still huffing mercury in the hopes of it making them immortal.

    every person who doesn't like an acquired taste always seems to think everyone who likes it is faking it. it should be an official fallacy.

    the "no true scotch man" fallacy.

    Tonic is the one drinkable non-alcoholic thing on the average plane flight!

    It goes with gin and you don't have to shake ice cubes and garnish shit with ferns and shit

    Google reviews need to try not sucking.

    one user: five stars "it was awesome!"
    another use: one star "this will make you die."

    Ok, so, do I average those...?

    A little confusing, but I still like it that way.

    then call them demons

    But I wanted to call them Gods.

    I mean, I guess I could call them demons.

    I feel that is somehow too straightforward, though.

    Watching the NLDS kind of hoping Arizona wins since I think the Cards have a better chance verse them than the Brewers. But if the cards lose I think the Brewers have a better chance verse the Phillies and I don't want the Phillies to win anything.

    Do they clear out colds? I'm coming down with one and I need a quick fix.

    Also, don't they just taste like pure alcohol or do they cancel each other out?

    Fuck the Phillies. They are the Yanks of the NL. Plus I am rooting for my Cardinals but I don't think they are going to pull it off. I was surprised they beat out Atlanta to get into the playoffs. The bullpen isn't that great but they have the best hitting line up in the NL so it balanced along with a hot streak.

    Gin and tonic doesn't taste like alcohol. It tastes like a treeish alcoholic Sprite.

    Do gin and tonics cure colds?

    ... Yeah, sure!

    (No they don't taste like pure alcohol. There's kind of a bitter/sweet/herbal thing going depending on the tonic water.)

    To be honest I didn't really give them any followers.

    For the most part their followers will tend to be unaware of the Gods themselves, they're just attempting to fulfill their goals.

    Like the "High Priest" of Descartes is an intelligence officer for the small nation the story takes place in, who is attempting to manipulate public information in order to protect them from the threat of neighboring nations pressing down on them. As the plot progresses, he gets more and more extreme in his views of what qualifies an acceptable lie for the benefit of another, and eventually he manifests the God.
