lol, yeah me too. They are so popular here though, and I just don't get the appeal (especially because in the student area they are made with Baileys knock offs like Cantabury Cream - a 'delight' at about $10 a bottle and some generic melon schnapps. Gross, gross, gross.)
i would also recomend biting a lemon after the shot, hell lemons are good anyway or if you need a chaser i'd recomend v8 splash, it's nice and thick and will cover up most any taste. personally though, i prefer my liquor through a beer(er... liquor?) bong...
i cnt do shots. at all. ok maybe its just the i cant do vodka. yuk yuk yuk. it just makes me wana puke. eurgh.. *shudders* even thinking of it makes me wana puke. but hey, gd way to get drunk.
