  • 2 oz vodka because much of the time, he was a spy with Russian adversaries and he wanted to blend in, also note that he doesn’t specify which vodka because he actually doesn’t care. 1 oz Gordon’s because beneath all that he’s a true red blooded Brit and he’ll always proudly drink British gin. Lilet Blanc because it’s not his money and he’s surrounded by wealthy people so he might as well buy the most expensive vermouth in the world. Shaken not stirred because he wants the drink to be cold, causing him to drink more slowly, and because it will water it down, meaning he will appear to be drinking more than he actually is and people will underestimate him. I can’t figure out any obvious subtext for the lemon twist, but it is a very classy way to have a martini. Call it a Vesper to memorialize his first love, and emphasize that he doesn’t and can’t have a life outside of being a spy, he’s condemned to this world.

    The Vesper is the best fusion of lore and a cocktail you could ever conceive and will never be topped.


  • To make this more accurate for modern dating apps, you should keep all the men, but only have like 3 of the women. Dating apps aren’t there to get you a match, they’re there to convince you that you will get a match…eventually. The money is in creating a feeling that doesn’t reflect reality.

    Number pads are obsolete. If you need to type more than one number at a time, you should be asking yourself “What am I doing wrong such that I have to type all these numbers out?” We live in an age where every document is digital, and number pads are exclusively useful for transposing numbers from paper in bulk.

    They’re not even a good design, there’s no tab, only enter, so they don’t even support putting numbers into a spreadsheet super well.
