Re: Alcohol myths
What about hangovers? Ive always heard that you get the worst hangover from wine, and a not so bad hangover from good clear liquor (mainly vodka), due to sugar/impurities, etc. Anyone want to clear that up for me?
Also, what about different "types" of being drunk. Ive talked to all these girls that say, I get happy drunk off wine, depressed off tequila etc.

Re: Alcohol myths
most people assume that when they order top shelf (or pretty much anything but well liquor) at a crappy bar that they're actually getting what they order. Sometimes, yeah, but it's amazing how much of the time the assholes ordering crown and cokes to impress everyone at their crappy college bar are drinking the same damn whiskey as the kid who ordered the 1.50 well whiskey

I used to drink crown, and I've sent back several glasses of nasty tasting [censored] that didn't have any crown in them.

[ QUOTE ] the amount you can tolerate is proportionate to your weight. [/ QUOTE ] This is true. It was even on the card the cops handed out to me in High School. It had a table with 4 seperate columns based on weight, that showed how a certain number of drinks affected you. [/ QUOTE ] I got that card too. Then I tried to prove it wrong. I passed out and woke up in my own vomit. Good job DARE.

I had a friend that worked at one of the nicer bars at his school and when the black fraternity would have mixers there the bar would fill up multiple bottles of hennessy with cheap alcohol and make a killing. This type of stuff happens ALL the time.

Re: Alcohol myths
Just because it may look cool in a clear glass does not mean it tastes good, and putting mints into vodka will not make it taste better.

Re: Alcohol myths
I'm pretty sure this is all true:
[ QUOTE ] Immanuel Kant was a real pissant Who was very rarely stable. Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar Who could think you under the table. David Hume could out-consume Schopenhauer and Hegel And Wittgenstein was a beery swine Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel. There's nothing Nietzche couldn't teach ya 'Bout the raising of the wrist. Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed. John Stuart Mill, of his own free will, On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill. Plato, they say, could stick it away-- Half a crate of whisky every day. Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle. Hobbes was fond of his dram, And René Descartes was a drunken fart. 'I drink, therefore I am.' Yes, Socrates, himself, is particularly missed, A lovely little thinker, But a bugger when he's pissed. by Bruce, Bruce and Bruce AKA The Bruces [/ QUOTE ]
