Depends.

If it's got lots of flavorings in it, or is particularly sweetish (sugar-based), no. If it doesn't, yes.

In Japanese cook-it-in-front-of-you restaurants, the grills are cleaned with vodka.

Mediocre. It'll do the trick, but there are better things to do that with and better things to do with it.

Also, I've been told whiskey is crap as a personal flotation device.

Step 1: dip unsterile object in alcohol.

Step 2: light bunsen burner.

Well, in all the wet labs I've had, we've swabbed down the benches with a 75% alcohol solution so a 40% or higher vodka may do the trick in a pinch, I suppose.

While a bottle of whiskey is a poor curriculum vitae, the right bottle of scotch sent with your resume can increase your odds of success.

well that one simply isn't true. having a baby is very stressful. is alcohol not an excellent stress reliever?? giving alcohol to an expecting mother, ergo, is just plain logical and, on a more emotional level, a kind and compasionate gesture.

Sure, the bottle looks pretty. It adds flair to your otherwise un-adjectively-advanced mantle.

But honestly, would it make a difference if the bottle was empty or full? I'm all for aesthetically-pleasing atmospheres and whatnot, but when my favourite drink is involved, things change.

Yes it would. Empty liquor bottles on display smack of tacky college life (says the guy who had empty liquor bottles on the mantle back in college.)  It's the same as wine; you don't display empty bottles, you display handsome bottles of drinks for your guests to choose from.

I did that once with a bottle of gin.

I ended up getting audited, thrown in jail for tax evasion, and the gin had sex with my wife. Plus, the hangover was awful.

I walked in on a bottle of gin having sex with my wife once. I screamed and threw limes at it until it ran away. It was hours before I realized that the wife was, in fact, imaginary and the bottle of gin was actually my girlfriend... The relationship didn't last long after that.
