Suddenly started doing insane damage to Hiruko and can't figure out why

Can anyone figure out what happened here? I fought hiruko like 7 or 8 times with decent success, doing normal damage, and then this time I deleted his health bar out of nowhere. I was already hitting him with confusion and so on before and he was taking like wayyy less damage than that, like 75% less. Looking at this I see he started accumulating a bunch of debuffs at the same time even though I wasn't attacking. What happen

Old Forester barrel proof rye

I wasn't a big fan of the bourbon version (blue label) for the price, but I bought this anyway on impulse when it happened to be at a local store. It's really good! It reminds me a lot of Jack Daniels barrel proof rye. Very spicy, banana, graham cracker, with an oddly "creamy" finish. Kinda reminds me of cheesecake in a weird way. It's not quite as good as JD and it costs more, but it scratches the same itch while being a bit different.

Hello!! I went out to some bars and one had a decent spirits menu with fair prices. I ordered Weller Full Proof since it was 25 bucks and I haven't had it yet. It turned out to be all gone so I got a Booker's. Haven't had this in a long time either and the server said it was a brand new bottle that hadn't been opened yet. So whatever the current batch is, presumably.

Overall: 6 (Very Good). It good. Better than average, not anything special. It was heavy on the brighter, younger fruity side of things, not much oak or nuts in evidence. Reminded me of Old Grand-Dad 114 with a bit more age and a lot more proof on it. It was a scorcher for sure, my first sip actually gave me hiccups. After that it cooled down a bit. Not a whole lot to say about it I suppose. As a bar pour it was a fine sip, but not anywhere near as complex as I remember it being the last time I had it 1000 years ago, and there's no way I would pay $100 for it today. I've heard unsubstantiated claims that the "juice" has been getting younger on these and I would tend to believe that. It didn't stand out as being much if any better than OGD 114 or a Knob Creek single barrel. If it was in the $50 range I might try a bottle. I ended up having a Manhattan after this which was far better.

ENJOY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This book (novella) was so much fun. Great balance of character work, shocks and jokes without going overboard (i.e. droning on & on and becoming boring). There were a few minor questionable plot elements but the story moved quickly enough that it never really bothered me, which is saying something since I'm super picky and obnoxious about stuff like that. Best of all, the author can actually write! I felt like I was reading a Real Book instead of a random person's first draft of their first attempt at writing. I also laughed out loud multiple times in the story, which is also quite rare because I hate having fun and I think everyone is unfunny by default. I'm glad I checked this one out and you should too! ENJOY!!!! **8/10**
