Random Interesting Adventure

[lifeisame.livejournal.com]

I sort of wrote this like a fanfic, but it's a true story. Happened last Thursday.

So, being that my best friend turned 21, the whole group of friends already 21 took her out to go bar-hopping. That's one drink at every bar within 30 miles of my town. And just so everyone knows, at one point my little town was in the world record book for having the most saloons in a 5 city block area...

Needless to say she was uncomfortable (and so wasn't everyone else) the next morning. Not being 21 I had appointed myself as the Designated Driver/Sober person for the crew, and wanted to help. It was my chance to play Jeeves. And note the insane grin that was plastered on my face. I scrounged this out of, I think it's "Jeeves Takes Charge (1916)" :

"If you would drink this, sir," he said, with a kind of bedside
manner, rather like the royal doctor shooting the bracer into the sick
prince. "It is a little preparation of my own invention. It is the
Worcester Sauce that gives it its colour. The raw egg makes it
nutritious. The red pepper gives it its bite. Gentlemen have told me
they have found it extremely invigorating after a late evening."

Based on this information I made what kind of looked like something gross. Carried it to the Birthday Girl on a silver tray, and made her drink it. Still unable to make her own bodily decisions, she did so, made this face ~> 0__0!!!, and was nearly 80% more perky. Of course I had to substitute real red peppers with red pepper flakes, but well...

Thank You, Jeeves.

I thought it might amuse the Bertie fans, and put a smile on the Jeeves fans' faces.

LOL! I've always wanted to try that recipe but I've never had the nerve - or the adventurous friends - to do it. ;)

I had been meaning to try that. Well, not on me, but on some unsuspecting guinea pig.

I still maintain that the Headache Remedy has ingredients that Jeeves does not divulge to Bertie, though.

Oh, for definite. He says himself that it's a closely-guarded secret.

*evil grin* Next time my GM decides to run a game with a smashing hangover, I'll whip out the Worchester sauce, red pepper, and eggs.

Perry Oysters!

They were the hang over cure of choice in Cabaret.

Haha. Go the experimentation on friends. ^^

It's the real reason I like to be sober, when everyone else is drunk. *large evil cackle*

it works?! i kept meaning to try it but thought maybe i shouldn't, because if it didn't work i'd be dissapointed. Now i know i can't resist though, even if it's me that has to suffer.

Shame I'm allergic to pepper really. I could probably substitute chillies quite happily though... it'd probably wash down my own personal favourite the Huge Greasy Bacon and Egg Butty with Lots of Brown Sauce quite nicely.

Red pepper is ground up Cayenne chillies - no relation to actual black/white pepper.
Re your brekky - what, no kippers? ;-)
