Hangover Thread

#22
I've never had a hangover or blacked out, but the one time I drove drunk I had NO idea where I was the entire drive, and it was the same way I drive to and from work everyday (for the past 3 years). Luckily I desided to not try and get out infront of that car in the traffic circle because I noticed it was a cop and the next day I knew I wouldn't have made it. That would have been good :hmm

I'll update ya'll if I do blackout or get a hangover, maybe I'll try for it next weekend :p

I heard a big part of hangovers was dehydration caused by the alcohol.

A couple Motrin and a big glass of water before you go to bed is supposed to prevent, or minimize the hangover.

I suppose that's assuming you don't spew the water and Motrin all over the room, your girlfriend, your dog, etc overnight.

You may be better off dealing with the hangover if you're on the verge of erupting already.

Bingo!

Actually for me the whole Pabst thing started over some confusion at a gig a while back. I mistakenly read the date for a Labatt's $1.99 promo while at a gig. So I ordered one. "That'll be $3.50" "WHAT?!!!" I said.

After that beer, I went to the bar and asked: "What's the cheapest beer you have...in a bottle?" Pabst Blue Ribbon the cute barmaid said. "How much?" the cheapskate asked. Cute barmaid: "$2.00". Cheapskate: "Gimme one...please".

I don't get hangovers anymore. Seriously. It's very strange. The worst thing I can do, is to consume high fructose corn syrup with alcohol, 'cause that gives me a massive headache, and it lasts an entire day. But drinking alone, doesn't hang me over anymore. Hasn't, in about ten years or so. Ever since I stopped drinking. :D

No, but seriously, has anyone had an experience like this? Maybe it's because I used to drink so much, that my metabolism changed or something. I'm entirely sure, that if I started drinking again, the alcohol would be very much like an "opiate" for me. Can't sh*t, can't f*ck, that kind of thing. Obviously you can tell I'm not just talking about one beer. Which is why I try to avoid alcohol these days.

But, once in a while I still have a beer, maybe at a gig or something, and it has a very strange effect on me. It's nowhere near what it used to be, like making me bubbly and sociable or anything like that. It kinda makes me "nod out", almost like heroin. Has anyone had an experience like this?
