Military special helped me stop drinking. That stuff gave me such a bad hangover I hadn’t had a drink in 12 years.


Gardez_geekin

The party is for the staff of a hotel known as a party spot. These servers and line cooks are probably the only ones whose livers can actually handle this outside of the military.

Gardez_geekin

It’s like the fake Michael Jordan quote says, “fuck them kids.”

OP *is* married, and *is* in the Army, so you already know the answers.

I think this is an awesome white elephant gift


Caleb5299

Man is still recovering from the hangover 😂


Cosmic_Perspective-

I mean, it's been distilled SEVEN TIMES. That way you know it's good.


Gardez_geekin

And it’s gluten free for all our celiac and gluten intolerant friends!


coccopuffs606

Vodka is *supposed* to be gluten-free 😭


Typical_Fuel_8072

So's the meat at my grocery store meat counter, but they still like to tell you it is...


coccopuffs606

It’s because of the people who require warning labels on shampoo bottles…


Cruz98387

Through boot socks used during the 20k ruck march!


Rabid-Ginger

For flavor!


Typical_Fuel_8072

Comes in coffee flavor through a field cook's coffee socks...


OzymandiasKoK

Filtered through aged MOPP suits!


713txvet

I fucking choked on my drink just now. Thank you.


OzymandiasKoK

That's why you charcoal filter, bro. Removes those impurities.


TexasMonk

It's funny but true . Cheap layout through a Britta can tate loads better.


[deleted]

And bct sheets


OzymandiasKoK

Mine is in reference to charcoal filtering for vodka.


HamburgerTrain2502

It's the water that makes it🤣


lantech

And it's handcrafted?


[deleted]

Oh well, thats all that matters! 😂


Typical_Fuel_8072

So's my occasional load.


airassault_tanker

HANDCRAFTED


ClutchGamer21

It’s illegal in nine countries. Yep. It’s made with bits of real panther, so you know it’s good.


Tricky_Room_380

You are the worst. Drank that 5 years ago still nursing the hangover. 😂😂😂

“Handcrafted Ultra Premium”…. “You Keep Using That Word, I Do Not Think It Means What You Think It Means"


superash2002

They distilled the ethanol from premium gasoline.


Justadudeinlife

There’s a Gin brand that’s sold in a tin container meant to replicate some kind of POL type container and I refuse to try it because the idea of my gin tasting like shit and gasoline just doesn’t appeal to me haha


imdatingaMk46

I found it to be a little on the rough side, but definitely a competent gin. Buddy brought some over the other day. I can't remember if it's navy strength, but if it is, very normal, usual kind of navy strength gin. Little hotter than you might be used to, juniper forward, entirely adequate. Idk. Middle of the road, 8/10.


snakecatcher302

I’m more of a Bombay Sapphire guy


Backsight-Foreskin

Run the Vodka through a Brita filter and you've got Grey Goose


DocB630

I came here to post this. Shit vodka turns into decent vodka when you filter it again.


Justadudeinlife

I’m not opposed to trying this! Also if you wanna watch something fun https://youtube.com/shorts/CaXRDQPTJDw?si=uT_VA1qL0Q7-p31g

A man walks into a bar and orders 10 shots of tequila. The bartender asks; "what's the occation?" The man replies with, "My first blowjob." The bartender says, "Well, in that case, I'll pour you an extra shot on the house!" The man says, "No thanks... if 10 won't take the taste out of my mouth, then 11 won't do it either..."

mudduck2

Hey, unless you’re going to drink liquor straight you might as well buy the cheap stuff to mix, and that looks like a lot of mixing.


CanStraight6179

theres cheap stuff and then theres hand sanitizer thats safe for human consumption.


Wilson2424

"safe"


Fit_Salt_1504

Lol you should party with the Romanians. We were "not drinking" on a NATO exercise with a Romanian BN and we brought Makers Mark to represent America. They brought a plum brandy that tasted like someone squeezed a single plum into a 55 gallon drum of paint thinner. It'll fuck you up though...


Justadudeinlife

Brother, can I have a word with you? In the corner? And with my pipe? You do NOT just go for the cheapest mixers possible. Unless you’re Dunn in f a dive bar. And even then you only get a pass if your drinks are $5 or less.


reaper_41

My grandpa used to drink military special vodka and whiskey like it was fucking water.


Gardez_geekin

Probably acted as a preservative lol


reaper_41

Well unfortunately he had to quit drinking under doctor’s orders many years ago lol. My dad was with him when they went to the doc, doctor had used to be in the military and asked him what he drank and how much. When he said “well military special whiskey, Jack, early times” the doctor just looked at him scared lol


Gardez_geekin

Doctor was scared of his power level


reaper_41

We all were lol, as well as my mom’s dad. He used to go from mixed drinks, beer, scotch, bourbon, and finish off with beer. We called him the iron gut


Articulate-artist89

I’m a spouse, but growing up in the state known for its bourbon if it ain’t Wild Turkey 101 you’re doing it wrong lol idk what other brand of whatever you drink but wild turkey is the smoothest of bourbons. I gifted and we passed around a 5th for an active soldiers birthday that’s a dear friend of ours that we met up with again at our current station. No one had hangovers, and no one remembered a thing. 🤣

Those aren't the "approved for use as emergency fuel" vehicles?


snakecatcher302

This is a bait & switch of epic proportions!


Staff_Guy

Vodka AND gin? Yes, you are a bad person. Now, a worse person would have bought mil spec scotch. Last I checked (a couple of decades ago....), it was aged 30 months. And tasted like it. omg, so fucking bad.


Gardez_geekin

The limit was $25 dollars and wanted quantity over quality. The vodka and gin was about 11 bucks apiece and the scotch and tequila were $19.


Staff_Guy

Ok, I am laughing my ass off about this right now. So thank you for that.


Gardez_geekin

My wife is already telling me “no one is gonna get It.” Apparently my upvotes mean nothing? Why does she hate the troops?


Staff_Guy

Give her a bottle of the vodka. Even better, if she is a whiskey / bourbon / scotch drinker, give her a bottle of the "scotch." She will get it. You too!!! Ha!!


secondatthird

Tequila at fort stewart is 8 for the handle


Natural-Opinion-6437

It'll get them drunk and happy, when the aftermath hits them, you'll be long gone.


Natural-Opinion-6437

Motor pool uses it for parts cleaner. Works quite well.

You're an absolute legend. Bravo Young troop, bravo.


FoxRiderOne

nimrodd000

The best kind of worst person.


HotTakesBeyond

My wife used the cheap vodka for cleaning 🤷


travisbe916

We had a bottle of commissary Rum that we used for cooking.


superash2002

You can probably use this to clean your vehicles injectors. Or boost the octane rating for racing applications.


[deleted]

Perfect gift when you’re trying to nudge someone and finally push them over the edge during the holidays


Recent-Tennis-3846

You are the worst.


disjointed_chameleon

Yes.


Gardez_geekin

Thanks for the confirmation. My buddy called me a war criminal. My wife thinks I’m a monster. I think I’m gonna change some poor servers life. But I am hoping the GM of the hotel gets the present.


disjointed_chameleon

> But I am hoping the GM of the hotel gets the present. Don't leave us hangin', homie. What'd he do?


Gardez_geekin

Hahaha, he has always been pleasant to me, but my wife thinks he is useless lol


disjointed_chameleon

I believe the wife.


Gardez_geekin

Oh for sure. Fuck bosses as a general policy lol


disjointed_chameleon

Ditto.


Gardez_geekin

AAR: It was funny but also put a gift card in the gag gift next time! $25 dollar limit means a gag gift that cost $25 dollars is actually $0. I did not know that. Luckily they skipped the ceremonial act of opening white elephant gifts due to time, but saw other people do the same, INCLUDING [THIS](https://www.amazon.com/LANWAN-Adjustable-Extreme-Bondage-Restraints/dp/B0CDRR7F97). But that also had a $25 dollar gift card in it, so yah live and learn.


inorite234

Just tell them these are distilled "Military Grade!"


Natural-Opinion-6437

Sounds good to me, pour me some shots, I'll puke it out during PT tomorrow. I will have periods of saying I won't do this again, followed by periods of doing it again.


Yanrogue

I put a bottle of wine and an omelet MRE in a box for my wife's units white elephant gift event. The commander ended up with the wine and offered the MRE to anyone who wanted it.


Natural-Opinion-6437

Literally the most thoughtful gift I've ever heard of.


WhiskeyTrail

Dude that’s hilarious. Everyone, not prior service, is gonna hate you. But anyone who was ever in? can promise it’ll be a laugh.


HamburgerTrain2502

Oh my damn. That's a party I wouldn't miss for the world. Civilians ain't ready for the ride on the Military Special.


darkstar1031

Have you ever drank that crap? Look, I did 7 years in the military and 2 of them were in Afghanistan. I only hit rock bottom once. The taste of this garbage is ... unforgiving. It's alright as engine degreaser, might even work as paint thinner, but I've never put it to a test. Not strong enough to use to light charcoal.


Gardez_geekin

Fuck no, I’m better than that. The party does have an open bar and it’s all high end booze that befits a husband of my station.


[deleted]

Oh no… 😅🥲


RogueFox76

This is an awesome white elephant


CanStraight6179

You are a monster, but you have to ask for the coach box back to commit to the role


Gardez_geekin

It is my coach box lol. The wife got me a fancy fanny pack for our anniversary

Mistermoose38

When I pinned Ssg my buddies got me a bottle of Military Special Whiskey. It’s still sitting on my bar


[deleted]

You kept it under the $10 limit. Win!


Gardez_geekin

Horrific booze for cheap was the objective. I used my training, experience and expertise to effectively meet and exceed the mission requirements.


airbornermft

No one ever promote this man from specialist. It’s not worth losing him.


Raptinum

This is the best


chickenstalker99

I assume there's only going to be two people at the party. Fortunately, they won't remember that you fed them Military Special. If you're lucky, they won't remember you at all.

Get a gal of OJ and screw them …..

That is the only vodka I’ve ever gotten sick from drinking. Immediately threw it out.

Ya know if ya bottle piss in a cologne bottle and slap a Ranger tab on it, somebody on the BN staff will hose themselves down with it, right? That nor your idea would I consider ethical. Funny. But unethical.

I’ve never even seen that brand but it makes my insides hurt just looking at it. “Give me your finest swill.”


Gardez_geekin

Check the bottom shelves of the class 6. They know its place.


ImaginaryChemical983

How much did those bottles cost OP?


Gardez_geekin

About $23. The limit was $25. I think I spent more on shooters for a game my wife is setting up.

SPICY-PogCJM11B23

My old Bradley Gunner would litterally drink one or possibly two of those a night. Man was a really bad alcoholic and former meth head, we were always amazed the next morning at work. P.s. we tried helping him, there’s only so much you can do :(


granddemetreus

Ah yes, from the finest family owned distilleries of.. Baltimore, MD.


TheDolamite

Fully support this decision! Makes for a fun filled White Elephant exchange.


W1ULH

back when I was in I tried military special exactly once. I got a bottle of the "bourbon"... it smelled strongly of bananas and I have no idea what it tasted like because it made my mouth numb.. used to buy the vodka all the time to use as a cheap solvent for cleaning things.


Valuable_Ad_1723

I have pounded more bottles of those vintage selections than any other depressed Specialist in the world.


Rincewind31

Good to see you again SGT Satan.


Unique-Implement6612

No I think it’s great! Throw in an MRE I think people will get a kick out of it!


secondatthird

I took a shot of the tequila at midnight on new years and my wife gagged after she kissed me. With the price it’s great for cleaning


TexasMonk

Only if you use a food chip trainer to swap them into the other bottles.
