Did you order it without alcohol?


No, that would completely defeat the purpose you ask me.


Totally agree, but then it'd be Virgin Bloody Mary...
I thought it came from Mary I of England.


This. Old Mary was beheaded, although she most definitely wasn’t a virgin. Your bartender was misinformed.

Damnation is not a thing in Buddhism or any of the non-Abrahamic religions. So it would make no sense to tie the two together.

g*d damn you is literally a curse that comes from your religion.

No, they forced Christianity on my people. Physically forced. Forced the religion. The language. All of us. They didn't have a choice.

If my people were forced to believe the Norse gods, then I'm sure "Fcking Odin" would be my go to.



With all due respect, your grasp of history is incorrect.



Spoken like an ignorant colonizer.

I don’t think it’s offensive to say “J.. C…!” Or the like….
I think of them as little prayers.
