tips on drinking?

If things are on the up and up and nobody is jealous or insecure, no reason why this ends on Maury Povich. Some of us have never had that problem and wonder why others would put up with it.

I always order the same, pint of beer, glass of water without ice. I down the water immediately. Buzz comes on naturally, you just end up getting to know which tiles are crooked on the bathroom wall behind the urinal because of the multiple trips you'll be taking.
 
Milk will coat your stomach... Eating before, and in the middle might be better-depending on your choice of food.

If you want to believe the old adage: "Beer before whiskey is kinda risky, whiskey before beer, never fear."
 
Remember the rhyme--


Liquor to beer: never fear
Beer to liquor: never sicker


•alcoholic beverages and fire are a bad decision. Leave the fire at home.

After emptying the beer bottles, we'd siphon gas into them from the car and made Molotov coctails which we threw in the parking lot. How we didn't get arrested or killed is anyone's guess.
 
its usualy not good to go drinking with another woman, when your's isn't there.

Eating will help, but if you eat greasy food, then you're going to see it again before you want to.

Take it slow, going shot for shot with someone is never a great idea. I'd even suggest drinking only beer to help you pace yourself (Even though the beer before liquor thing is hogwash).

Coffee won't counter act the alcohol, that's an urban legend. The only thing that counters alcohol is time.

Prepare a "hangover fixer" kit for the next morning. A Gatorade, some Excedrin, and a bannanna should do. You could even drink a couple glasses of water before bed to be on the safe side.

Have fun!
