      Guys, it's true. He really has those videos and he actually has a patreon. It's literally all true, guys. I'm just here to verify that the information is actually correct in case anyone is wondering. He really does have a duck video, a chicken video, and a video where he is begging for money on Twitter. I have seen them with my own eyes. I will swear to it in a court of law. And guys, there's one more thing you should know. He's also 100% correct about the patreon account. He literally has a patreon account and it's online. So everything does check out. All of the information is accurate. He really does have the videos that he mentioned, and again, for the record, he also has a patreon. If anyone needs me to verify this personally, I'm more than willing to come to your house and show you the photographic evidence. I also have a laptop with digital evidence that can be corroborated by the expert of your choosing. I will pay for my entire trip of course. It's just really important that you know for sure he's really telling the truth about this. I know it sounds like he's making extraordinary claims. I was very doubtful at first too. It's natural to be skeptical about things like this, but if you really commit yourself to uncovering the truth, no matter how painful it may be, no matter how hard the journey is, no matter what the cost, you will find that in the end it was all worth it because the truth is incredibly powerful. You could take the time to research it yourself and you'll see that it's all true. But unfortunately most people are too afraid to really search for the answers because they instinctively know how dangerous it will be to their current paradigm, and they know they're going to have to change their entire way of thinking afterward. How can an honest intellectual learn the truth but refuse to conform his worldview to what he has learned? No, the truth is more important than our presuppositions, or our traditions, or even our sacred religious values. After all, if those things don't actually align with what we know to be true, how can we even sleep at night? The cognitive dissonance would begin to weigh you down on the inside like a spiritual cinder block hung around your neck, always pulling you toward the ground and choking the life out of you as you trudge your way through the darkness of life and the existential nightmare of getting older and older as time betrays your faster and faster through your lifetime, and it's as if you're the only one who knows it's happening and that's part of the weight, part of the burden you have to carry like Sisyphus struggling to accomplish the impossible task of merely making it through the day without breaking down and weeping like a mother who lost all of her children in a raging house fire, but like Sisyphus, you almost make it but as you reach the end of each day you do indeed break down, and you weep yourself to sleep. Anyway, if anyone needs further information I'm free at all hours. You can contact me here on TH-cam, or by email, or facebook, or instagram, or Twitter, or Linkedin, or my blog, or my hotbutton account, Tumblr, Amazon, onlyfriends, onlyenemies, onlyfans, twitch, Gab, STD Support Group Anonymous, Tweeker, Geeker, Freeker, Одноклассники, Batter, Hatter, Clatter, Whats the Matter, Hamburger Chatter, Grab, Slab, Hamburger Crab, VK, Tagged, Toro, MyHoroscopeNetwork, BeBo, UwU, Bolt, Volt, Hamburger Jolt, and all of my other social media. Sorry to leave such a short and incomplete comment but I didn't have much time to fully spell everything out. But just to reiterate once more before I go, the information in his comment is accurate and it's all true. He has the videos he mentioned, and he has the patreon also. And again, if anyone needs me to verify this information personally I can be reached through the above mentioned platforms. May God bless you and keep you, and may the force be with you. Live long and prosper. I love you. Peace out, homie.

(apart from the antibacterial attributes of alcohol). I mean, water is cheaper, wouldn't i make more sense?

Once I did this I started getting into the higher end bourbon and talk about a huge difference. The best I ever had was labeled as 119.2 proof it was barrel strength bulleit bourbon and talk about smooth with zero bite and go through the smelling of it and it changes it entirely. Turned it jnto an excellent experience.

      You have to neutralise it. Unless you were to neutralise the glass with grain vodka, only whisky will do. Although I accept that neutralising the glass with the same whisky that you'll soon try is a mistake

    • @L8bro
      @L8bro 9 ปีที่แล้ว +47

      DGRWPF I can afford them just fine, and I do enjoy them often. I would simply rather use a clean crystal to start with and save the extra half ounce of Scotch for my taste buds. :) It was made to be drunk after all; and it's not just about the money. .. expensive ones are often rare as well. Also, it is just plain wasteful. This is my own personal and humble opinion. Cheers!

    • @svanrie
      @svanrie 9 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      L8bro You can pop a glass into the best industrial washing machine you can find, it'll still be dirty. If you want it to be extremely clean, let Bleach be in the glass for a minute, and then hope it doesn't destroy your precious whiskey with it's chemical aftertaste.

      svanrie you can stop lie to yourself. Pour a little bit in the glass, swirl it around, pour it in a second glass, save it. Now pour new whiskey in the first "cleaned" glass. Drink.
      Go back to the second glass which is "dirty", drink that too.
      This way you dont destroy your tastebuds at beginning, ans you get to enjoy the whiskey this guy throws away.
      You will most definately taste no difference, and this guy wouldnt taste any difference in a blind test either. Its all placebo/in your head.

    So just a recap:
    - You only throw the whisky out of the glass when you want to taste it, if you want to casually drink it you don't have to throw it out.
    - You only throw the whisky out when you are drinking blended scotch or the less expensive single malts.
    - same goes for the water, only add water if you want to taste the whisky
    - you only add a bit of water to get the alcohol kick down so the flavours can be discovered better, you don't add enough water to really water it down.
    - if you want to casually drink the whisky you don't need the special glass they use
