g.: It tastes like warm. No, it tastes like wood.

d.: Warm wood?

g.: It's really acidic. When I smelled it I thought it smelled like vinegar--this seemed to be accurate. It's not necessarily bad, just kind of rough. On the esophagus.

g.: CAPACIOUSNESS. We have a wicked vocabulary for a couple of drunks.

d.: And sometimes we even use it correctly.
