Re: how do you take your martini?
I'm fairly sure that Gin martinis are the original, though 007 drank Vodka, didn't he? I just drink beer, myself. It lasts longer.
An alcohol enema is a new one to me. I've seen people dropping Vodka into their eyes, mind. Not something which seems an especially good idea.

Re: how do you take your martini?
I used to know somebody who would inject themselves with vodka (or so they claimed anyway, they were definitely injecting themselves with something on nights out).
I have a word for that: it starts and ends with a "T" and has a "wa" in the middle. (Hope that makes it around the moderators.)
Re: how do you take your martini?
There are some stupid people out there. Why can't they just drink the alcohol? (Then again, Vodka tastes so awful I can understand not wanting to drink it... but why not go for some Irish Whiskey?)

I believe that it is gin that takes the biscuit...vodka is for the chavs,,,,so I have it on good authority.......I have a word for that: it starts and ends with a "T" and has a "wa" in the middle. (Hope that makes it around the moderators.)
There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

Bombay Sapphire, dry, but not extra dry. As many olives as I can con the bartender out of.
I do not drink Manhattens (the whiskey version, using sweet vermouth). If I'm going to drink whiskey, it's almost always Bourbon, and I almost always drink it neat. I add a drop of water from a stand alone glass of water I ask, to release the flavor. Occasionally, I go with Powers (an Irish).

Re: how do you take your martini?
I quite like Manhattens, if you can get over the facts that (1) its a terrible waste of good whiskey and (2) Cocktails, especially red ones, are basically girls drinks. (I think this rule sort of doesn't apply to Martinis since 007 drank them, even if his were made with vodka not gin)
