Prom coming up!

1st hour - 2 drink
2nd hour - 1 drink
3rd hour - 2 drinks
4th hour - 1 drink

and so on and so forth.

you liver takes care of one drink an hour, so you'll get buzzed if you never drank before, but you won't get drunk.
 
Beer, beer, water. repeat as needed. Serious.

+1

My advise overall is to just stick with one type of drink. If you know what you like-e.g. vodka + juice, drink that all night. If you like beer-even better.

FWIW-the last time i went to a bar [that i wasn't playing at]-i drank variations on Flavored Vodka + Fruit Juice. It started off as my bartender friend ordering for me....evolved into the girl i was there with ordering for me, and ended with me ordering & getting confused while doing it. Great night & the drinks were really tasty with a moderate alcohol content. Major bonus that they were $3 mixed drinks since we were there w/a party.

Now, I stick to beer if i want to really control my buzz/drunk level. A beer an hour and I won't feel it much. 2 Beers/hour starts to feel, 3 beers an hour definitely feel it, 4 beers/hour & I'm happy, 5+/hour & i'm going to have a hang over.

After my 4th beer, I start to do beer beer water.

As far as the drinking & smoking-be careful. It gives some people the spins. When i still smoked, i'd smoke & then drink [beer]. I didn't end up drinking nearly as much, but I got giggly as all get out.
 
dude whatever you do dont do weed when you are drunk you will get sick EVERYWHERE (unless you are use to it)...and just for the record i dont do weed, but my friends do, and it was nasty.

BUT on the drunk side of things....drink beer, you will quickly learn your limits. If you sit down and drink you will think you can drink all night and the beer isn't affecting you, that is until you stand up. Then it hits you like a train, try and stand up and drink some. But you will know when to stop or to just "sip" (newfies dont know what that means so pardon my french).
 
hmmmmmmm

the only way to find out your limit is to cross it...

when you are drinking, your ability to reason goes out the window, and you drink more, cuz it tastes GOOD!!!!


then, you get really drunk, things start to spin, and you THROW UP!!!!

YAY!

we have all done it!

NOW< if you dont want to ......drink beer, then water, then beer.


hmmmm do a shot! wait ten minutes....sip a beer drink water

then slam two beers!

hahahaha

do that beer contest where you slam a beeer, then put your head on a vertical baseball bat setting onthe ground, and spin around.....

then hit up a beer bong@!


oh, and what Frank the Tank from old school.....

"I'll do one! I'll do one!"


fill it up again!!!!!!




REALLY,

dont drink aand drive, and just pace yourself, and tell one of your buddys to watch you ,.....but make sure he isnt a crazy MOFO, and gets you even more wasted...

good luck!

let us know how you do!

it's tonight. I'm not going to get beer because, before prom there are cocktails so I'll have some wine or whatever their and then at after prom there's an open bar from 12-2 so I'm pretty much set for alcohol. I would like to get some weed though which is hard when I don't have any money or know anyone to buy from. :D

if you go in a limo, bring some beer we did, we had fun.:hiding:
 
You're Canadian. Just have a few Molsons and a few Labatts and call it a night.

Seriously, for a young drinker of average build, 2 beers per hour should put you in a good place without going overboard. Don't be the guy that gets wasted. That's just not cool.

Some of the advice above is sound. Don't drink all sorts of drinks just because you can. Mixing beer, wine, liquor, etc. will make you feel sick. Sweet drinks are for girls, and they will make you feel sick. Stay away from shots. They'll make you feel sick. Watch out for wine. It can lead to horrible headaches and hangovers. Put whiskey on that list too. Just have a few beers and you'll do fine. Remembers that partying is about having a good time with friends, and not just drinking.

Good luck and enjoy!

2 beers? really? are you serious? :eyebrow:
 
hahaha. I think I've decided I'm not going to listen to most of your advice. I have a feeling that mixing alcohol, as long as I don't have too much of the liquer and have more beer I should be fine. Also I think that if I smoke I probably won't throw up. I just have a feeling. :D

You don;t want to use smoking to keep you from throwing up.
throwing up prevents alcohol poisoning. Pot prohibits the body from throwing up. If its your first time, don't mix pot if you are having more than 4 drinks an hour IMO.
Like you said, you don;t want to be the idiot with vomit on his suit waking up with his face on a public urinal!
