Random Fail: First World Problems

[Astylla]

I'm expecting anywhere between 10-18 shots

My coworkers still remember the story I told about doing 15 shots or so one night at a local bar. They don't believe one person could do that much and survive. I used to call them amateurs but after this weekend kicked my ass I think I need to up my tolerance lol.

I'm at the point where 6 is my buzz, lol. Anything less than that I tell them not to waste alcohol on me. Calories for no benefit

i've done 21 shots before, but, um, regretted it. the friend i was drinking with had been drinking all evening before we went to the bar, so fuck if i know how much he actually had. 15's nothing.

I've seen AG do more than that before the bars even opened. Living with beasts of men has skewed my sense of normalcy forever.

I lost track of how much actually drank but went out with my division once and one of the guys who was an ok drinker by most standards but pretty bad by Navy standards wanted to challenge me so bet him I'd take a shot or have some vodka based mix drink for every beer he had and 2 shots for every shot he had that night. Was a pretty good night morning was pretty rough at first since I had gone right after work and hadn't really ate or drank much water before went out

Why would you wanna get your tolerance up? Let people brag about 20 shots. I wish my tolerance was lower so I could spend less on getting drunk.

Oh because I don't want to spend 12 hours recovering next time LOL. I was half joking but I used to drink on a good night 15-20 drinks without blinking and he fine in the morning and never drank water. But this weekend was far from that lol.

So pace yourself and get drunk at your speed. It's not a competition

I'd kill for your lower tolerance so this is truly a first world problem.

What exactly did you guys drink last weekend Astylla?

[Tokitoki]

From the sound of it, straight 190-proof grain alcohol.

I've always been awful at pacing myself , as I finish a drink and font "feel" anything so immediately order another and repeat.
So basically just order stuff then by the time it does hit , it ALL hits and it's the point of no return.

I think the reason is because I started drinking young at 13/14 and drank as much as I could as fast as I could to drown out home/school issues and abuse. I have a history of alcoholism in my family and definitely overdo it when I indulge but it's not weekly at least, well at least for last 9 years.

All mixed drinks at this bar in Reno we frequent. So mostly rum and vodka based ones but one was a 60oz bowl type and I easily drank over half on my own.

[Roranora]

My guess is they had some super sugary shit either mixed in or shortly before/after, but I wanted to ask before guessing and assuming shitty mixed drinks were consumed. Didn't you also crush some 4am french toast?

It's not just one thing or the other; it's all things. Sugar and alcohol will wreck the next day, especially if one is old like we are now.

Edit: Yes it's true. You drank sugary shit. You had a fish bowl. Don't do that. Try some neat whisky next time. :D

[Tyrath]

Well it's not just about what you feel though. How long have you been drinking? You should have a pretty good idea of how drunk you are gonna be after how many drinks.

I party to get wasted, but more often than not I don't really go beyond anything I've planned to. I also don't get hangovers so that probably helps.

[Zetanio]

The easy way to pace yourself is:

Drink your drink as slow or fast as you want.

Drink a big glass of water, take your time.

Repeat.

I stand by my previous statements that people should stop being teenagers and drink straight liquors like adults. Drink beer, wine, or liquor. Don't add any more than 2 ingredients, none with sugar.


I have my girlfriend's ridiculously fancy (Black Tie) Christmas party tonight. I'll be drinking beer for the first 2 hours and then vodka on the rocks with a twist.

One may, however, spear a slider on top of one's bloody.

Cocktails are fun sometimes. My friends and I make a bourbon drink around the holidays. Bourbon, fresh ginger, a splash of hard cider, and a bit of a cherry & apple mash. Heavy on the bourbon, of course.
