    Most places will limit you to like two of those kinds of drinks. First time I learned this I thought I was being cut off. I was like “did I do something wrong?” They said no, you can order anything else. Just not more of those.

    Which is odd, because they’ll let you order a beer and a shot as many times as you want, and that will fuck me up way more, for some reason.

      You can taste it a lot more in a beer or shot. Its much less likely to sneak up on you, with how much alcohol is in a long Island, and the fact you can hardly taste it.

      A proper long Island is about 5 ounces of liquid with 4 of them being liquor. That’s way more potent than a bee and a shot.
