Ruined myself for good Scotch later in life for an under-age pint of Cutty Sark.

A pint sounds like a good amount, but admiral..... cutty?

Sorry to hear, scotch is good..

Jager - I can look at it but if I smell it......Probably have a hard time not getting sick
Goldschlager - I can smell it and look at it but cannot drink it
Fireball - The smell is vile......
Absinthe - If I smell this $hit I will seriously vomit.
After shock - Drinking a full bottle of this stuff...bad idea.
Cuervo - Same goes with the above.

I think that's about it, I've gotten sick off a BUNCH of other stuff but it doesn't turn my stomach. The time when I drank 3 120 minute IPA's in a row comes to mind. 21% each, 36 oz's total. It was probably within 5 months after I turned 21. Good times.

Just today I was at Kroger getting a few things with my son. He had to pee and after he finished I was helping him wash his hands when all of a sudden the smell of the soap took me back to when I was 15 and worked at Kroger. Its weird, I only worked there a month 15 years ago but as soon as I smelled it I was back in time.

This is a very, very bad idea - the smell of cinnamon turned my stomach for years after that night! It was combined with lots of other stuff, but the taste of this dominated everything else.

I can still get a wave of nausea from the alcohol smell in hand sanitizer, my guess is it reminds me of the cheap vodka I used to drink?
