Yeh, good to see at least one honda outside!

[bomma]

hey i would like to re-instate one of the "rules" of the chiller, which is the "rule of 3"*** whereby every third "drinking"* MEMBER to attend the chiller has to buy a round**. this is probably the only rule that the SMC has ever come up with but has at some point been forgotten.

* - the term "drinking" applies to any individual that is purchasing an alcoholic beverage for consumption at the time of the chiller's operation

** - the term "round" refers to a purchase of the 3 beverages for $10 deal that is usually available at the post-grad cafe

*** - given the definition of the term "round", this rule will NOT apply if the 3 beverages for $10 deal is not available

[PirateJafa]

You'd have to turn up first Bomma. :rofl:

[Ixion]

I has a course this week. So I should be there at fiveish. or before. Assuming the stupid place doesn't shut down at three. How they ever expect to make any money when they are never open I do not know.

amen to that...bastards close very early, they need a fireplace and some better beers for that three for 10 deal. Oh how I wish there was a decent bar near uni.

Na, fuck that rule. People who buy rounds at one chiller dont need to buy ones the next. That way it is even. Due to timetables some people always end up not chippin in.

[Real_Wolf]

They need more than just a fireplace, add in some decent music, and stopping the stupid 'start the music when we want you to leave, turn it up slowly until you have to shout to talk, hoping you'll leave on your own'

[Danae]

Oh god the music selection...such bad remixes that you can't tell whether the disc is skipping or it's meant to be that way. Damn a fireplace would be nice...they scrape up enough revenue I reckon...

[The Pastor]

whos keen for geneys northcote 8pm on the 7th?

[Hanne]

Yum.

(i miss you guys...)

[Danae]

Cake!!!

Yep if I'm not doing anything and if I have money that sounds good, RM

[bomma]

You'd have to turn up first Bomma. :rofl:

lol yea ill come along eventually, don't want to be spreading "the sickness"


Na, fuck that rule. People who buy rounds at one chiller dont need to buy ones the next. That way it is even. Due to timetables some people always end up not chippin in.

umm think about it logically. firstly, there is 1 in 3 chance that the person who comes in third is you. secondly, there is an even smaller chance that it's the same person/people every week, regardless of how fucked up your timetable is. thirdly, chances are that if you are going to buy a drink, you'll buy the 3 for $10 so it's not something that is an extreme ask.....im basically unemployed and can still afford $10 to spend on my mates once a week :done:

[motorbyclist]

i say less calling on people to buy rounds - if they want a drink they'll go up and buy three, or ask if anyone else wants some booze if they're broke.

personally, i suddenly feel less inclined to do something after it's been demanded of me, even if i was going to do it anyway.

[Squiggles]

Strata </10chars>

[GSXR Trace]

ok where is strata? i have to pick up the bike after 3, and then hang around til class at 6, so may come and say hi... so where is it?

[PirateJafa]

Top floor of the Kate Edgar building.

[jono035]

Bah, I was sitting around in the power electronics lab until 6pm last night doing nothing, should have found this forum earlier :p

[Krayy]

Right...I'm in the process of being Uni-fied, so I'm in for a Friday drink!

I've scoped out the location, so at least I know where I'm going, but what time does Strata close, and how long do the KBers hang there?

I'll have to have one with the workmates first, then head done after that.

[PirateJafa]

Strata closes at around six PM, and us bikers leave around six to seven PM.

[GSXR Trace]

you lot sit and talk crap from 3-7pm!!!! you realise i can get home to the naki quicker than that! that time and money would be better spent on petrol and time on the road! 4 hours a week of extra riding you could be doing! thats disgusting :nono::bleh:

I could have completed a university degree in the time I've spent on forums. :bleh:

[Ixion]

But then you wouldn't know as much useful shit.

[Ixion]

.. what time does Strata close, ..

About 30 seconds after it opens!

[ital916]

About 30 seconds after it opens!

"Whenever people stop buying"

sorry for late reply just read this... no i have a blue/black gixer... and don't bring it to uni as only live 5 mins walk away

[motorbyclist]

by the time i got to strata it was time to go to shads

[ital916]

turned out to be a r great chiller at jafas, full of swords fights in halo 3, ass kicking in gears of war and laughable driving insanity in pgr4 plus there was pizza and garlcic bread and chips and coke......and jafas sister ;), okay the last bit was wishful thinking....oh and anaconda 1 & 2

Best moment of the night - jafa and I racing honda rc161, inline 4 250cc bikes around nurumebekenfkjwenerg ring. Definately needs a ten speed gear box...:whistle:, and me destroying real wolf with the little 250 when he was in the 8 litre corvette

[Real_Wolf]

Pssh, what about that bike with 2 gears, that was awesome.

Or the old old old F1 cars.

Yeah, pretty great night, more shoulda showed up.

And I'll be the first to admit, racing games aren't my forte, but despite not owning any xbox (ever), I am better than you easily in the fps games

[Dare]

Wish I coulda stayed. Cut it pretty damn fine as it was!

[Slyer]

We shall leave it up to the lan to decide this? ;)

The SMC's under-bridge dwellers would be hard pressed to top this effort.

Oh, and get out there and ride in this beautiful (if cold) weather for me! Stuck at work ALL this weekend...just after Big Yellow is reg'd and WOFed for summer too. Fukkit.

[motorbyclist]

turned out to be a r great chiller at jafas,

NO.

turned out to be a great chillar at SHADOWS.

It's just a shame that some people decided to go play video games all night instead. They missed out :oi-grr:

[PirateJafa]

NO.

Admit it - your lack of timeliness and organisation failed you once again. ;) Hopefully you'll be able to turn up to next week's chiller though, Goldilocks.

what are you talking about - I posted up that the chillar was at uni, and went up for beers just before 5pm

I don't even recall a post in the chillar thread pertaining to it being at yours...

luzly part is that after some delicious pizza we went to my neighbours for some xbox guitar hero and forza - the xbox was a deadbox so we had to one from the cold, dead hands of danae's younger siblings

[PirateJafa]

There is no post of yours in the Chiller thread saying the Chiller was to be at uni? (Cue to you editing one of your posts I guess) ;)

And no, there wasn't - because I texted most of the people who have real phones.

People with 027's get left by their lonesomes. ;)

[motorbyclist]

I did - check the main post :bleh:

If there's no change i generally dont post - of course if you wanted to host all you had to do was post

Fine, you had some beers and played some forza of your girlfriends xbox...wank wank wank...

Anaconda trumps all so there, and pgr4 trumps forza cos you can pull a 1km power wheelie on a mv agusta f41000 senna whilst doing the spread eagle in it. :cool:

I like this plan as I am now missing a tooth I need single malt scotch to heal the wound....in copious amounts ;)

Absinthe is only nice when you drink gold label (thats 89% for all you lay peeps)..none of this pansy green or red label crap.

Oh and dont drink it straight mix it nicely and bask in the aniseed flavoured goodness.

wtf why would you buy the 89.99% stuff and then not shot it straight?:crazy:

i don't even like aniseed, but the 89.9% just tastes like burning so it's ok:2thumbsup

never bought anything weaker - can't find where to get the 92% stuff a mate had "acquired" and have tried the 60% stuff with extra wormwood and wasn't that impressed.... all the yuk without any the payoff though it did mix well with sprite....


and before you non-students go raving on about how we can't be so poor if we're paying $60 for what amounts to about 500ml of booze, bear in mind it's cheaper than beer, per unit alcohol, and about 100 times as fast - 3 shots from sober (no more without medical staff on hand, this is probably borderline as it is) and you can feel yourself getting drunk. 5 minutes later you're completely off your face. non-alcoholic fluids are recommended at this point.

you see, some of us students don't even have time to get drunk, let alone stand around drinking several litres of beer;)

this is why henderson is much more awesome than remuera - infact there's probably a lot that is explained by this....

[ital916]

Maybe becuase you are still a young'un who drinks merely to get kicks and get shitfaced, whilst I drink less regularly and more for the joy of having a drink.

You would struggle to sit on a deck watching thw sunset with a glass of chambdon without trying to play scrumpy hands.

Actually..age doesnt play into it as gareth drinks like a 15year old on P. ;)

[Danae]

yeah but i forget all that by about the 4th jug :D

might bust out the absinthe again - "nevar again" it every time but keep coming back for more:2thumbsup

Lolz! I hope you're gonna drink on saturday too...maybe save the absinthe for then XD

[jono035]

bear in mind it's cheaper than beer, per unit alcohol

No it isn't... $60 for 500ml of 90% = $0.13/ml of ethanol, $22 for a dozen steinlager pure at 5% = $0.11/ml... There are many better value beers than steinlager pure and still the option of scrumpies/cask wine.



3 shots from sober (no more without medical staff on hand, this is probably borderline as it is) and you can feel yourself getting drunk. 5 minutes later you're completely off your face.

3 shots at 90% = 81ml of ethanol, 7 shots of 40% = 84ml of ethanol.
According to the Widmark Equations, this will leave an 80kg male with a BAC of 12mg/ml. The legal driving limit is 8mg/ml... So if you shot 3 shots of absinthe and then wait 15 mins, you'll be at 1.5x the legal limit... For a regular drinker that's hardly shitfaced. For an alcoholic that's barely noticable.

That wasn't really my intention. If you don't drink all that much (like me now that my undergrad days are behind me) then 1.5x the legal limit can be completely obliterated. If that's what it takes to get you properly hammered then score, you're gonna save a ton of money.

Ran some more numbers on alcohol values (prices from the mill website)

Brenner 330ml and Viking 440ml beer in cans is cheapest at $0.073/ml and $0.067/ml respectively...
Red Square 1L vodka is $0.093/ml with Smirnoff 1L at $0.100/ml
Jim Beam Red 1L $0.100/ml with Jack Daniels 1L $0.138/ml (from local liquor story, for some reason the mill has 1L JDs at $65, should be $55).

Beer would be cheaper again from the supermarket and I couldn't find alcohol percentages for aquila/chardon/scrumpies etc.

Edit: Drink whatever you want, if people are telling you that you're a student and therefore should only be drinking rheineck tallboys that have been dented and are in the clearance bin then fuck em, it's your money and your choice. Just don't say it's cheaper than beer because I can't help myself when I see something that is factually incorrect.

You clearly need a drink. Come saturday to Danaes and bring any lady friends (wenches) ya have :2thumbsup

[jono035]

You're bang on the money there. I'm guessing whatever is happening at Danae's place is why Andrew isn't allowed to be hungover from friday?

Why care the label colour and alcohol content if you MIX it.

Where does bulk ethanol 'liberated' from labs fit in the analysis? IIRC the 40 gallon drums were INSANELY cheap as there was no excise on them.

Surely any home-brew FTW?! (And bonus longer chain alcohols from poor process control! Turbocharge your hangover :sick:...)

There was always a litre or 2 left in the bulk EtOH drums that the siphon just couldn't reach...which was still there at drum disposal time...:shifty: (Damned heavy metal contaminants alleged to be in cheap EtOH. Ruined all the potential fun.)

Have tried analytical grade EtOH, but it was horrid. Dehydrating agents or summat.

Where's a bio-scientist type to confirm the cost of bulk EtOH these days? GSXR Trace are you out there? Anyone else?

Pedantry is my forte :D I was just disputing the whole 'cheaper than beer claim' and got a little carried away. Home brew can be good depending on how keen the brewer is (more often it tastes like watery marmite though)...

Edit: For students I would have thought the price per drunkenness index wasn't particularly trivial!

Indeed on the latter. Pedantry IS more impressive when it is 'trivial' in the big picture (yet important in its subgroup) and bemuses casual observers.

We could factor in food status, different alcohol dehydrogenase genotypes, the poorly explained effects of carbonation on alcohol uptake, inhalation of vaporised alcohol etc and come up with a fool-proof guide to the ultimate in economical drunkenness (without Police and Hospitals) for any unique person and drink combination :sherlock:

Because the yellow label absinthe tastes a hell of a lot different from green and red, as they all have varying degrees of different ingredients thrown in. The stronger the absinthe, the less needed when mised...and you can taste the aniseed in it. I think YOU miss the point of absinthe, another of the "its so strong so I must only be able to shot it and get shitfaced"

That is why. I dont state im a connoisseur. Different people like different drinks, maybe I like it mixed..and that is my opinon.

Ahhh so you went straight onto failnet to read what others say...supposedly "experts" who give their opinion on something and then say that is the right opinion. That is fail in my eyes.

My brother who is an bartender likes to drink it straight and mixed....and he likes the yellow label of the green and red. See different opinions

Note: never swish a shot of yellow label in ones mouth for one minute.....it makes your tongue bleed.....as I found out a few years back.

[jono035]

Sounds pretty logical to me...

I like Hennessy VSOP cognac mixed with L&P, try it sometime... Tastes like raisins and honey, beautiful drink. Most of the drink snobs I mention that to make a face like I've just suggested mixing it with the remains of blended roadkill...

If it tastes good, drink it! If it tastes crap but gets you hammered, drink it until you grow out of doing that. If it tastes crap but you drink it because its fashionable or 'proper' or you're afraid of getting mocked if you don't then that gets a wtf. Unless its already poured its in front of you, in that case anything else is just rude.

I have never tried that but I will, my grandfather liked VSOP, must have had good taste then.

Yeah, I drink whatever I like and tastes good. I dont have a palette for straight spirits a lot of the time. Except for that beautiful bottle of rum that andrews dad got....veeery nice.

lol, no, merely that I only had a lecture at 9 today, rather than lots of them, and the effort of getting up, putting on gear, and riding in, only to have to ride home again early because I have a 21st to go to, is not nearly as attractive an option as staying at home and not doing that

[motorbyclist]

No it isn't... $60 for 500ml of 90% = $0.13/ml of ethanol, $22 for a dozen steinlager pure at 5% = $0.11/ml... There are many better value beers than steinlager pure and still the option of scrumpies/cask wine.

really? lol

tbh honest we were already pretty drunk by the time we started running the numbers

I spent like 15 mins waiting at a train crossing (lights flashing, arms down). Eventually i gave up and went the back way which goes over the rail. Came back and the arms were only just going up. Doubt a train even went by. Fuckers.

The road works on grafton (?) rd are pretty annoying. It's been cut to one lane so if anyone is turning right...haha! You'll be sitting there a while. Plus there are barriers so you can't split. Saw a nice gixxer though.

chillar is at strata - where the beers are cold and we-who-aren't-already-out-east don't all have to travel 20 extra km in heavy traffic on top of our normal journey (be it the ride to uni or the walk from class)

movie night after the chillar sounds acceptable though

Yeah, you can only go left from the end of that road technically. It's pretty easy to head right though, even in rush hour due to the nearby lights.

It is a little bit of staff parking, access to a bunch of freight entrances for the labs in the buildings, gas bottles etc. and a few leftover areas that have been designated as motorcycle parking. Probably 15-20 bikes in there sometimes?
