WTF is a Kool Aid Drinker?  I keep seeing it on different posts (mostly in the AR discussion room - hence me asking this here), and I have no idea what it means.  It's not in the big acronym list.  Remember, I'm not really bright, so use small words.

It's all good as long as the Kool-Aid isn't red.

Remember those suicides a few years ago in Cali?  They put pills in a koolaid knockoff.  Drinkin the Kool-Aid!

Also many 1911 owners have tasted the cool aid,  they walk around mumbling "if it aint a Colt it's a clone"

Oh man!!!...Don't tell me it was "Grape"!!!

That right there is sacralige..blashemy!!!...because...

Back when I was in the suck?...on our "no-pay weekends"?....we'd take up a collection in the barracks....then designate someone to run into town for Everclear (99.999% Pure Grain Alcohol), a bucnh of bagged ice and about 2 dozen packs of Grape Kool-Aid...meanwhile?...we'd take the newest, cleanest looking $hitcan in the barracks into the showerroom and scrub hell out of it..then toss the bagged ice, grape kool-aid and everclear in (and in that order) and then add water and stir...we called it "Purple Jesus"...purple cause of the color and Jesus cause that was the most popular word you'd hear come out of first time tasters mouths!!! LOL!!!!

But our entire barracks could stay drunk for the whole weekend for literally a few bucks a man...It was also capable of doling out one of the rawest, most acidic case of the dry heaves known to man...and if ya drank water during your hang-over?...you'd wind up hung over AND drunk all over again...nasty stuff if ya over did it but...90+% of us were ALL dedicated "Kool-Aid Drinkers"...and actually?...now that I think back?...I guess it almost DID kill a few of us!!! LOL!!!

That's the Heaven's gate cult. Strangely they found the last body before demolishing the house. It was under the sink, behind the comet!

Thank you, I'm here all week!

I just think it is scary that someone else drank Purple Jesuses. We used to play quarters with that crap. You're not from Texas are you?

I vividly remember the films of the Jonestown mass suicide/murders.

Is it just me, or does this thread make anyone else feel old?

My favorite is "It's a phony if there's no pony"


I have a Bushy lower/DelTon upper bastard rifle, so... "Is it a fake if there's no snake?"

Everclear is 95% alcohol. You want to know how I know?



This picture was taken back in 1988, when I was an underaged 20-year old drinker. That is my first AR-15 rifle, which I bought earlier that year from the owner of the local Army surplus store for $300.

I used to take a gallon of orange juice, drain out a pint bottle's worth of orange juice, and replace it with a pint of Everclear. I called it "Agent Orange", and the next day you'd feel like you were exposed to the real Agent Orange. Most of the time I would buy it by the fifth, and occasionally even by the gallon. In fact, I still have an empty gallon Everclear jug in my gun room to this day. I haven't drank alcohol for 10 years, and feel very fortunate that it didn't kill me.

Jim Jones couldn't even cough up the cash for real Kool-Aid?  The cheap bastard.  That's like making death row inmates order off the MickeyD dollar menu for their last meal.  No class.

That "behind the comet joke"... funny as hell.

My best friend (he has an FFL, so he's my BEST friend) makes cherry bounce with Everclear... nasty stuff but pretty good.  I've never witnessed this, but he claims you can almost watch Everclear evaporate if you leave the top off?  Joking?... maybe if you've consumed enough of it, you can see all sorts of interesting things.
