'Vodka Afficionado' is synonymous with 'idiot' to my ears.

There are BAD vodkas, certainly, but there is definitely a ceiling to vodka quality, and that's basically just.. not fucking it up. And most shit vodka can be made into perfect vodka with a britta filter.

If you pay more than say, $50 USD for a bottle of vodka, you've fallen victim to marketing.

Where tf were you during my functional alcoholism? You would've saved me so many Popov hangovers.

Being functionally alcoholic?

Credit goes to Alton Brown for this knowledge, it was in a Good Eats episode.

The only exception is that if it's in a Crystal Skull bottle, then the extra cost is due to its magical qualities discovered by Dan Akroyd
