I'm pretty sure that COSMO belongs to SPOOKYBOT. That borzoi (https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3879) looks like the dogs here (https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3418).
I dunno why Spooky sent her in; probably as another way of getting in with this group of friends because as we've since established, they're lonely (https://questionablecontent.net/view.php?comic=3924).

Ditto on the I-don't-like-being-drunk train.
For me, most beers taste vile (anything not derived solely from fruit), and being drunk is more frustrating than fun. My inhibitors go up, yet I still get the impaired balance and motor skills. On the taste front, most mixed drinks and hard liquors are okay, but I'm "pretty picky" since I don't do anything bitter.

Your reaction to alcohol seems to be exactly like mine, the more I drink the more inhibited and quiet I become, which is saying alot considering I'm a 100% introvert with avoidant issues to begin with. I've never gotten to the fun part of "being drunk" if you don't count losing fine motor control as the fun part (can't grok why one would impair themselves on purpose, either, if not as ritual sacrifice). I'm not really sure whether I've actually ever been drunk in the classical sense.
Except taste-wise I like everything bitter, very much. Which is why gin is my go-to in situations where not drinking is socially awkward. At least it doesn't put me to sleep like wine does. I can handle quite a lot of gin with no visible effect at all whereas 3 glasses of wine and it feels like overdosing on Xanax. But I can't stand beer, either. All beer smells and tastes vile to me and not because of the bitter component at all. People have tried getting me to sample kriek saying oh it tastes like fruit, not like beer at all, but nope. Still beer, only with fruit. Seems like criminal waste of fruit.
And to get back on topic, I would very much like to know what Bubbles sees when she's sniffing the juniper extract.
Gyrre:
I can't do wine because of the taste.
I know it's literally rotten fruit, but it tastes like rotten fruit. All of it. Even "sweet" wines are bitter to me. One of my cousins is the same way and has pretty similar tastes. Which is weird considering that about the only times we saw each other growing up was at relatives' funerals (great uncle, grandma, grandpa, and his father). Living seven-and-a-half hours away from each other isn't ecactly conducive for family get togethers, but there were two times when we did make the trip, and one summer when we met in the Arbuckle foothills of Oklahoma (roughly halfway).

Put me in the "I never drink… wine" camp as well.
