Women's Circuit Bender Union Local 34



Little back story:

My given name is a variant of Katharina. My mom used to sing this to me all the time (the inside joke being that I've always been skinny as a rail, and it's a song about a fat woman). I was just perusing my mom's cookbook that got handed down to me when she died a few years ago, and when I stumbled on a recipe that called for farina, this song popped into my head. So I just went hunting and found this on Youtube.

I've never actually heard the original, just my mom's off-key singing. And this video has a cute dog, cute cat, and a nice-sounding narrator, so hopefully it should bless people of all tastes.

Miss you mom, wish I could share this with you.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o5x7zogDVs0

Here's the lyrics to the first chorus (which was the only part mom sang):

O Katharina,
O Katharina,
To keep my love you must be leaner,
There’s so much of you
Two could love you,
Join a gym,
Learn to swim,
Eat farina
O Katharina,
Unless you’re leaner
I’ll have to build a big arena,
You’re such a crowd
my Katharine
I got a lot when I got you!

That's why I asked the OP. I've never had an issue with smirnoff.

It does what I need it to do (make mixed drinks) for a very reasonable price.

We did a blind taste test at work to see if a Brita really made cheap booze better and everyone agreed the cheapest poo poo vodka was as good as fairly fancy stuff once it had been filtered a few times. Unfiltered it was pretty easy to tell the difference.

after "testing" several brands of vodka every brand of vodka becomes fantastic. the filter dosent mater, it is a natural property of vodka to improve in quality as the evening goes on

I bought a bottle of Tito's a little while ago to go in my drinks freezer alongside my regular Zubrowka and it was... actually really good? I prefer the flavours in Zubrowka when I'm doing things like Mules but Tito's works really well with just soda and some lime.
