8 shots is kinda much :O I hate being even slightly drunk when I know I have stuff to do. I fail at the most ridiculously easy shit when I'm drunk.

Here's a trick

Take bad vodka (heritage or some other plastic bottle kind) and run it through a brita water filter.

Take the result and run that through a brita water filter.

Then do it two more times.

Now you have decent vodka!

I'm not sure if you're serious... does this actually work? I suspect there is some truth to it And 8 at work.. that's crazy! I only weigh 135 so it gets to me pretty fast. After about 6 I'm usually gone. Haven't tried drinking at work... may never lol I like to work hard and party hard, but separately.

It makes it smoother but if the vodka had a sour aftertaste, which most cheap ones do, that will remain. It's cheaper and more effective just to buy better vodka.

well goose is still a good vodka, although it kind of pales compared to stuff you can get in europe
i wish you could get kepka here ("green mark" http://www.cedc.com/our-brands/green-mark), i think it still remains one of my favorites (i am russian fwiw )

oh yeah and it's not that expensive either

I've read numerous articles on this, and while it DOES work, apparently it's much more expensive to do this because it's more taxing on the Brita filter with all the impurities, and you end up actually spending more money than you would have if you just had paid more for the more expensive vodka. Something like that at least. But yeah, it does work. I remember because we wanted to do it at my place last year.... haha

yeah at my bartending class they told us that this works. but yeah, the brita filter dies after a couple of run throughs, so given the cost of buying the filters, it's better just to buy the call brand instead of trying to filter it yourself v__v

The filter trick was actually on the show Myth Busters. Turns out you can take a crummy vodka and make it taste better by filtering it, but it still doesn't compare to good vodka. The reason they mentioned was that the chemical compound of the vodka itself remained unchanged, and was somehow different between the good and poor brands.

Here is a youtube of the episode, warning, TERRIBLE sound quality but it's the only thing I found in 5 minutes of searching at 3am -- Turn your sound down, excessive white noise:

Yeah, filtering bottom shelf does very little. An expert can properly order the samples by number of filtrations just by tasting, but 99% of people out there can't tell the difference.

Anyway, I was like "okay, I'll stop at 2" then my boss said "that's it, everybody has day off!" so I kept going.

My favorite vodkas (I can't figure an order):
First Guild
Finlandia
Ketel One
Belvedere

....though of course none of them is anywhere near as good as a decent whiskey.

Incorrect sir! Welcome to Philadelphia. Everywhere else gets it wrong, as far as everything goes at least. In California "Philadelphia Cheesesteaks" like like this:

Also, Geno's and Pat's don't have the best cheesesteaks, if you ever plan on visiting Philly. Check out the lunch carts at Drexel at 32nd & Market (they are hidden so tourists can't find them!)
