Learn Something

Perusing the old posts, and I've come to realize: I still don't really know what emo is. Maybe it's time I look this up.

emo = emotional.

In music it tends to be whiny and angsty. Self-pitying usually plays a part in it as well.

So a cross between metal and country then. Gotcha.

It's the same as grunge, except with less crunchy guitars.

Well, that just shatters my metal-country theory. Too bad. I was kind of keen on the idea.
Maybe I should start a band that plays metal-country. I'll call it Schmetal. I'll play the harmonica.

I'll tell you what "emo" is...it's an anagram for "moe".

Anyway, hope you are enjoying your Booze Nog, I know I am. (Well, that's a little misleading. I'm enjoying MY Booze Nog, not yours. Sorry for any confusion.)

Matt: Moe, hey. I had an uncle/1st cousin once removed/second cousin/wtf?/father's mother's sister's son (in law?) named Moe. I wonder if he likes emo.
Oddly enough, I haven't had much in the way of the booze nog yet. I should get on that. (Drinking it, not sitting on it. Just because we're being clear.)
Happy Booze Nogging!

Porny: Pale ale? That's not very celebratory. How about some hot buttered rum. Or mulled wine (although I have no idea how you mull a wine). Or hot chocolate with amaretto. Or pepermint schnapps (in the hot chocolate, not straight). At the very least, have a guiness, not pale ale.

Shit, I forgot about cognac. Damn. No cognac for me.

Is the booze store open today? I sent Shadow to the store yesterday with a list as long as Santa's, thinking the store would be closed today.

Mulled wine: Wine, heated with spices... *yummy*

Spices...that's what I thought. But will any spices do? Can I mull wine with a little fennel and chives? Of course, chives aren't spices, are they? But fennel is. How 'bout it?

And Merry Christmas.

You can use different spices. I used cinnamon, cardamom, and nutmeg when I made it a few years ago.

yeah well, I want in on this conversation too. Let's mull on Christmas. Next year I am rocking out. Gonna learn at least 5 chords, and strum a few diddy's. That way, the kids won't try to burn themselves during basting, and the rainmakers won't get used as weapons.

Alright, notes for next year:
1) Bring guitar
2) Buy cognac
3) Hide weapons
