Lee,
I probably haven't consumed a pint of spirits in the past 10 years...I don't like the taste...if I can't taste it, then I'm good...I have no objection to having it in the house; in fact, I have the usual assortment of stuff..it's just that I learned long ago that I get really goofy (well, goofier!) from when I smell the cap upon opening a bottle of whatever, & it goes downhill from there...then all I do is laugh.
I've been laughing a lot lately...;^)
hahaha
