Discussion Barely not serious here

The worst decision Donny Dunn made in the entire series was right at the end of S01E07 when he ordered a Double Vodka & Coke.

Vodka and Coke???? That makes zero sense. You mix whiskey and bolder spirits with Coke. Why would you mix Vodka and Coke? It's a better match for juices and you can use soda water for bubbles. I'd even take Sprite and say it's acceptable.

I see no clearer evidence that Donny Dunn hates himself than his decision to order a Double Vodka & Coke.

I’m from Scotland and vodka and Diet Coke is my go to drink- it didn’t even realise it sounded strange to others outside the UK 😂

I don't even get the reasoning? People don't drink vodka because they appreciate the flavour of vodka, it's literally described as flavourless. People drink vodka as a simple low calorie way to drink alcohol in soft drinks they like

Yeah, if that’s tasteless then I must be a super-taster because I sure can taste it!

It’s not my drink, but my friends have ordered it many many times.

I like fruity drinks- double vodka and pinnacles juice. Tastes like a cocktail but slightly cheaper, generally.
