I suppose 'brainfuck' would be a Absinthe mix of some sort
Absinthe + pear juice is great. Also absinthe + energy drink of some sorts. Though somewhat good absinthe is necessary for it as fake/cheap brands are really horrible.

#23A good cocktail showcases and highlights the component spirit(s) to make a more interesting and (hopefully) tasty drink. Unfortunately when cocktails are based on nasty components, they often end up trying to disguise the spirit with sugary mixers like fruit juice or coke. If you're interested in cocktails and don't mind diving in the deep end, try an authentic Sazerac: http://www.esquire.com/drinks/sazerac-drink-rec…

Felten's book ( http://www.amazon.com/Hows-Your-Drink-Cocktails-Drinking/dp/... ) has a good overview of all the classic cocktails, and in general is an interesting read. I have yet to try the Sazerac, having 3 bottles of rye at home... Shame :(
Also, the "original" pre-rye Sazerac was done with Cognac, gotta try that at some point as well.

#24The title “Cocktails for programmers” gives me the same feeling as would the phrase “Leaf blowers for stamp collectors”.
Yes, a stamp collector might use a leaf blower, but it would not be relevant to collecting stamps. On the contrary, using a leaf blower while collecting stamps would be… inadvisable.

I feel as if bourbon is a better drink for coding while tequila is a better drink for going out all night and puking before bed

Agreed.

#27Malibu, Crème de Menthe, Jager, Triple Sec, Vodka & Coke, Kahlua. These seem like cocktails for programmers... earlier in their careers, shall we say.
I'm pretty sure I had tired of such things before I was out of my teens. I can also remember turning up at (Secondary) school with a green tongue as I had consumed rather a lot of Crème de Menthe at a party the evening before - ghastly stuff.

Rum & Coke: simple, gets the job done, and packed with regret.
