Also a 90 second ad is insanely short for a 20 min video.

      @andrewsparkes6275 2 года назад +14

      @@agentbarron3945 I'm not talking about the RUclips ads; I'm saying he ran two ads in the video itself within the first five minutes (first the pins/sponsor for the video itself, then the second one he claimed he'd do quickly). He could have easily spaced those out in the video. And if the second one paid more to do it in the first five minutes...he could have done the second a little later on ("Hey, if you enjoy this video, this is the reason it's happening; the site that makes these pins!"). And if BOTH requested in the first five minutes and he took both, that's the problem I'm talking about with RUclipsrs valuing money over the content itself, to the point of annoyance. It's possible - if negotiated right - to get good rates on ad contracts AND make a good video that isn't completely slathered with ads in the first five minutes.
      Edit: Also a 90 second advert in a 20 minute video is 7.5% of the video. That's a lot. Added to the other advert for the main sponser that sells pins, that was over a minute, that's over 12.5% of the video. A whole eighth of what you just watched was ads.

      ​@@BrightSpark Why aren't you saying the same to God God, who also asked something of the video creator? I offered constructive criticism, taking contract negotiations into account and so on; it wasn't just a meaningless, empty whine. Because that amount of ads (in that amount of space at the start) really cannot in good faith be defended; no good channel does ads like that. Ads being in something in this way means it isn't truly free anyway - you are paying in wasted time instead of money - again, a whole 12.5% of the video. Truly free means being able to watch it without paying money AND no ads, or at least an amount of ads that doesn't destroy the flow of the video as much as these did. Again, I offered constructive criticism on how to be a better channel with ads, which is more than you did when you DID provide only empty whining about my own comment. If you wanna have a meaningful debate about ads/contract negotiations/etc, I'm all for it, but if you're here to just vent and complain yourself, I'm out.

    okay so I went through an experimentation phase a while back and one of the cursed concoctions that came out of it I think might be able to compete with your malibu pineapple old fashioned. You mix equal parts Captain Morgan spiced rum, Southern Comfort, sloe gin, and pineapple juice. Finish with lime juice, about half the amount of any of the other ingredients, a dash of maraschino cherry juice, and a dash of Blue Curacao. garnish with a maraschino cherry. It tastes like old people smell , hospital food, and chemicals wrapped up in a saccharine candy coating. One sip and I was more acutely aware of my own mortality than I'd ever been in my life. This drink is an abomination against god.

    I just tried Greg’s Midori margarita recipe and I honestly think the problem might be his tequila choice. I used a different blanco tequila (Espolòn, if you’re curious), and while it is very tart, I would t say it’s as aggressively tart or bitter as Greg’s. Maybe his tequila interacted with those flavors particularly poorly.
    Also for a bit of mystery solving, I’m pretty sure that customer thought of the midori margarita from the bottle of midori itself, which has a recipe on it for one that calls for 1 part Midori, 2 parts Sauza Tequila, and 4 parts Premium Margarita Mix

So I don't remember what cocktail I googled and decided to recreate, but I know that my version was blue curacao, gin, and simple syrup flavored with anise extract.

      Me and my mates were once ordering random things for the hell of it and seeing if it works, I believe I ordered a drink with blue curacau, mint liqueur, and sprite, and managed to make something that straight up tasted like listerine.
      It was the worst, also I downed the whole thing because I paid for it.

    I feel like you could make a truly cursed drink by just combining all of the really aggressive flavors in the bar in proportions that are way too big. Campari, Midori, absinthe, Malibu, Chartreuse, cranberry juice, olive brine. All of which are capable of completely overwhelming a drink by themselves. Throw them all together and find out which one is the most powerful.

    I wonder if these drinks started off as, "mixology thought experiments"; the individual never actually made the drink, but thought to themselves, "hey, I have made plenty of cocktails, and I "know" what every element in those drinks do, so what if I did x". They just know that what they have thought up is the next big thing, even if they have no idea what they are doing. Then they are at their favorite drinking establishment, and they think, "hey this is the perfect time to try out my thought experiment, everyone will be amazed by my genius". And the bartender is looking at the request, and thinking, "what an effing tool".

It's in the "House Specialties" chapter of the book, which mentions specialty cocktails from bars around the world. I haven't made it myself, but here's what the book says about it:
      __Midori Margarita__
      * 1oz Tequila
      * 1oz Midori
      * 1oz Sweet and sour mix
      * Watermelon ball
      * Canteloupe ball
      Mix all ingredients, except melon balls, with cracked ice in a shaker or blender. Pour into a chilled cocktail glass, the rim of which has been moistened with lemon juice and rolled in salt. Garnish with melon balls skewered on toothpicks.
