You're right on the money.
Liquor makes me feel fabulous faster. #nohomo #nooffensemeant #funnyish #weneedhashtagsinhere
Beer from a bottle gives you bloat.
Pour it in a glass and sip it slow. #sipping #slow #goodpour #guinessstout

I like some whiskey in the dead of winter....but in a social setting if I get bored, I drink....drink liquor too fast and it's a rough night

Betch drinks though, I'm going to Disney here in like a week, I'm gonna be fab af with all the betch drinks
MrKleen73, if you're filling your glass with 3 fingers of whiskey every time you're thirsty, it might be time for an intervention lol

Well depends on how you'r drinking it. I mean 3 fingers on the rocks, not 3 fingers neat... but yeah if you refill that every time you finish and are thirsty you are gonna have trouble... I have a buddy who outweighs me by 120lb, he is HYUGE!!! When we sit down to drink together and catch up he tries to fill me up every time he finishes his drink. I don't think he realized I was 40% more intoxicated than him just by the weight difference alone... So yeah I have had those days were that has gone wrong.
One time we went through 2 bottles of good scotch the first night I got there. We all ended up laying around the rest of the weekend wandering what the hell we were thinking.
Oh, and HELL YES to the bitch drinks! Just can't get away with them physiquwise but I still enjoy them from time to time. I love me a Frozen Beerita!

Yeah weight makes a massive difference, I'm near 250lbs and downed 16 shots of gin about a week ago, I was hungover the next day but that's a death wish for most people

Oh man.... that doesn't even sound fun... I normally try to stay on this side of sober, see if I can reach the buzz / tipsy effect and maintain but sometimes it gets away from me and I go too far...

It has been about 2 years since the last time I got caught up and ended up full on drunk as Cooter Brown!

I haven't tied one on in almost 15 years. Got hammered on a Bahamas cruise. Last time. Now if I have something, it's a Guiness or 2, but that's it.

I was never into tequila by itself and had only considered it a mixer, or shot type of drink until I got some amazing stuff my buddy's family brought up to him from Mexico. He invited me in for New Years Eve festivities and poured me one. It changed my view of tequilla forever. I haven't found many that I enjoy like I did that one though... he forewarned me I was going to love it and that you couldn't get it in the states... He was right on both accounts.
My favorite is honestly Crown though... nice, smooth, and a tiny almost sweet taste at the back end. I will do Bourbon's, Rye Whiskey, and Scotch as well but my go to is Crown. With the others I tend to use a little more ice, or add a splash of water to knock off some of the smokey / woody bite.

Yeah, I used to drink a lot of bourbon and apparently I wasn't as funny as I always thought I was. My wife had several talks with me, so I decided it may not be in my best interest.
Yeah, you have got to listen to the wife in those instances. I am typically a very happy drunk. However that also means I can become boorish and overbearing unintentionally.
The last time I truly got plowed was several years ago. It was Christmas Eve and we were at a friends house having a get together and someone started doing tequila shots. I protested at first but as the night went on we all just kept taking shots. When someone new showed up, shots, when someone was leaving for the night, shots, if it had been 10 minutes since the last shot, time for shots... That kind of night and I hadn't drank much in a long while...
I ended up spilling my drink on the island counter in the kitchen and then wiping up the mess with my shirt...
Typically that would be a really nice gesture but apparently I was too drunk to bother taking the shirt off. I climbed up on the counter top wiping it up with my shirt while still wearing it. Yeah, it was as odd as you imagine. That was when it was decided that it was time for us to go home...
Funny thing is the owners f the house just thought it was hilarious, plus the husband puked so hard that night that he broke the toilet from hanging on it. Apparently that is where he was as I was swimming on his countertop...
Thank goodness I have an awesome wife! I wake up at 6:00AM with a pounding headache and no clue how I got home or much memory of the night before at all. I realize it is Christmas morning and I hadn't put out the gifts... I jump up freaking out and go out to find that my lovely wife had taken good care of me and the family. She apparently took me home and then i got so sick, she just took care of me and got me all cleaned up and put me to bed, and then she put all the presents out.
Man I felt like a total loser... she was so nice to me too. She knew that I had no control, I was drunk by the 2nd shot from not having drank much, and having already had a couple Tequilla Sunrises before the shots started. It took me so off guard, that I was just inebriated.
Anyway that night had me mentally install a few mandatory fail safes for self regulation on drinks. If doing shots, it is shots only... If drinking a spirit is is on the rocks or I mix the drink myself so I know how much is in it. I also drink a non alcoholic beverage in between if in a social drinking setting that makes it easy to drink in excess. Since then I don't get caught with my guard down... I have been tipsy since then but not drunk... Drunk is not fun, or the goal... There were just too many 20 somethings at that party so shots ended up being plentiful...

the mental image of you swimming on the countertop is hilarious!! ? Probably a good idea to put up safeguards after such an incident though!! Lmao My wife doesn't drink, and always takes care of me when I have a little too much, sometimes I feel like she cares too much when I'm just sloshed lol
I don't get that wacked out anymore, not often at least, but I'm tellin ya when I went on that year of being a complete sloshfest she was the most patient person. Almost makes me feel bad

Man, we have way too much of a party neighborhood and groups of friends in other surrounding neighborhoods. Always an excuse to get together and have drinks and whatnot, and now that the neighborhood pool is going to be opening and my backyard opens right into it, it's getting ready to crank up.

Shows you what true unconditional love is doesn't it? Trust me the everyone that was there laughs any time that is referenced. Someone does the breast stroke movement and then the giggle starts. Then someone else will tell his wife to go check the toilet to see if he broke it again... then Jo will do her slurring impression of me... "I'm okay. No really, I am okay just give me the car so I can drive the keys home. Hiccup!"
One of those lessons that just pops out with a reminder every once in a while... Moderation and self discipline are key!

I'm on michelob ultra for the last 3 years, my wife and I are both weekend warriors. Knock down about 12-15 ultras and 3 or 4 shots of crown apple and sh*t starts happnin. ....I like vodka, cranberry, and pineapple juice during the summer. Very easy to knock down a 5th of vodka with some crushed ice on the boat with some crabs with bikinis at the pool....catch my drift....sh1t be happnin. ...we live 1/4 mile from the water and have 2 of the best bars on the water within 5 minutes of our boat ramp...gets a lil crazy during the summer out here on the Potomac. ...east coast living

Interesting tidbit of info I found out from hanging at the lake for a bit... their are a ton of swingers in the boat life...

No swingers here. Did have a naked woman in our walk in closet one morning. .. like i said...sh1t be happnin ...something about the water, sun, music, and alcohol. Terrible mix
MrKleen73

Or wonderful mix... I am all about the mischief and a complete social animal so I would love that!
That had to be interesting to find!
Oh wasn't implying... I was just shocked by the times my wife and I were approached or hit on when out at the lake hanging with all the people on their boats. The morning DJ on the alternative rock station is also always talking about the fact there are a lot of swingers with boats. I thought it was funny since the wife and I had been hit on a few times.

Haha, it is so true. Granted I live in one of the highest concentrations of swingers in the US, but take that and concentrate it even more and then you have all the lakes around here.

Really? New Amsterdam is pretty middle/ lowshelf. Not saying there can’t be hidden gems there, but I’ve had their vodka and it is definitely only for mixers.

It's middle shelf, but it's smooth and fruity with a nice back end burn like velvet. Maybe I'm just used to cheap stuff lol, I normally got gilby's or heaven hill, now that's some low shelf stuff

what works for me, to avoid the headaches, is drink water, so i have a few sips of red wine, and then a minute later i gulp some water down, that way i stay hydrated, works like a charm, i feel fine the next morning, and of course i only drink to the point where i got a nice buzz, that's it, i don't get truly drunk (like where i can barely walk or end up throwing up) i only drink once a week

It's the sulfites in some wines that cause this issue.
