from the alcoholic-mouthwash dept.

An elderly friend died last year and among other things I inherited a couple of bottles of Creme de Menthe. For anyone unfamiliar, it's bright green and very minty -- 60 proof / 30% alcohol by volume. I'm not a regular drinker, and I am one of those weirdos that believes in waste-not, want-not, so I felt obligated to find a way to (slowly) consume it. My eventual choice was to pour a shot or two over a bowl of chocolate ice cream -- not bad, compare to mint chocolate-chip ice cream, with a little kick.

Any other suggestions?

[An Anonymous Editor suggested Creme de Menthe Brownies (located at the bottom of the page).]

    Or we could just do what I already suggested once and give the user a button to voluntarily reset their karma to zero, or some other low starting value. It might seem crazy, but I think some people would use it, for the reasons given by the parent. I would.
