    A girl pointed out to me one night as she was heavily intoxicated and asked me to make her a drink... that I'm fancy. :D

    She asked what I do with vodka and I started explaining to her how I make Russian Qualudes. Which is basically a White Russian without milk. And she is the sort of person that usually says something along the lines of 'just give me the bottle man.' 'Ice?? Fuck ice. No need to go being all fancy and shit.' haha

    Anyways, what are some things you do that could be considered fancy or eccentric?

    will there are two things, one is ostentation and the other is class, and then there's the sophistication to discern one from the other.

    as a general rule of thumb, ostentation is purchased, where as class is the talent one demonstrates with one's own hand.
    other distinctions tend to be more subtle, but this one, i feel, to be fairly self evident.

    aggressiveness is ostentation. consideration is class.

    white Russian without the milk...you using white crème de cacao or khalua?......a true whitey is with crème de cacao but many north americans substitute khalua....if you add baileys to crème de cacao and vodka it is an ira...or an iron butterfly

    I used to suck back the white Russians like...like milk :)

    I am trying to think of anything fancy....I like my high end marijuana......I suppose my weed is much fancier than many peoples?

    and coffee...I am all for the 4 dollar Americanos at starbucks...I choose that over low end cheaper coffee every day

    I have fancy flipflops... all glittery. Got glittery nail polish for the holidays.

    Hush up about the White Russians! Used to be my fav drink... if I was out of scotch. Tastes like milkshakes to me.

    Dammit.. now I want one.

    Oh wow! I take my horn to festivals etc. it tends to be the life of a party at times, lots of people want to drink from the horn or pose pictures with the horn. I'll photo it later. :)

    A lot of people consider me very eccentric. Fancy though? Sometimes when I order wine and am the only one who knows what I'm talking about in the group maybe? Fancy wino.

    A long time ago, my sister-in-law taught me that it isn't feminine to grind a cigarette out in an ashtray; that females should just knock the fire off the butt.

    I think she read alot of Cosmopolitan.

    i was responding above to the text of the op. taking the word fancy at its literal, as in i think, whimsically attracted to,
    well that same as i'm attracted to more seriously;
    trees (forests), trains (preferably narrow gauge and solar powered), computers, and little furry creatures going about their own free and independent lives.
    (especially in forest and riding little trains. and of course using computers)
