The dude with the raspy voice is also in Spaced, which you absolutely must watch if you haven't already. It stars Simon Pegg, Nick Frost, Jessica Hynes and Mark Heap (Jim from Friday Night Dinner). Can't remember if you've done it already but you CANNOT miss it.

Most people dont know this, because Absinthe has an odd history and its not sold or drunk everywhere, but Absinthe is one of the most potent alcoholic drinks you can get. It makes pretty much every other spirit drink look like lemonade in comparison. So, Manny hunkering down with a bottle was bound to be a disaster. A flannel is a small hand towel which you use for washing your hands or face. Its usually about the size of a handkerchief but its made of.. flannel.

@wayne7521 Ай бұрын

Absinthe is fabulous , france only outlawed it so ppl bought wine again Plus they did what media today does , lied about it in a way that gave it the bad press needed .

@PaulForeman-indievisuals Ай бұрын

flannel noun (WASHING CLOTH) a small cloth that you use to wash your face and body

@StefanWB Ай бұрын

There are many, many videos on YT of people trying absinthe for the first time and just absolutely losing their minds. 75-80% ABV, or 160-180 proof for our American cousins. Supposedly the French impressionists and the Lost Generation living in Paris used to go mad on the stuff. It was banned in the UK/Ireland for a bit, mostly due to some bad press. You drink a very small amount, with water and a sugar cube.

@lloydevans2900 Ай бұрын

It is certainly true that not many spirits have a greater alcohol content than Absinthe: The most well-known one is of course "Everclear" at 95%, but this doesn't necessarily count because it is almost always used as a component of other drinks, not drunk on its own. One of the only spirits which is a genuine drink and has a higher alcohol content is an Austrian dark rum product called "Stroh", which is 90% alcohol. One of the strongest I have personally encountered was a "special reserve" version of Chivas Scotch whiskey, which was 70% alcohol, identical to the alcohol content of the Absinthe shown in this episode of Black Books. Which was probably the strongest whiskey of any type, including Scotch, Irish and American "bourbon". The next strongest contender that I know of is one of the varieties of "Knob Creek" brand bourbon at 60%. Though there may be others which are stronger - does anyone know of any examples?

@Cheepchipsable Ай бұрын

Flannel is a type of cloth, like linen, which is why you have flannel clothes. We have flannelette pyjamas and sheet sets which are thickish material that keeps you warmer and generally older people use them in winter. A flannel is a square of cloth maybe half again the size of someones hand with sewn edges usually used in the bathroom, I guess small hand-towel would be the equivalent. I assume they were made of actual flannel at some stage in history. To British/Australians rag implies a piece waste cloth you might use to mop up some mess then throw away. Dylan was addressing Bill as characters with beards and long hair, Gandalf, Genghis (Khan), and Ming The Merciless who is a Flash Gordon villain.
