Alcohol consumption, how much can you handle?
Posted: 11/28/2007 12:33:54 PM

how much is can you handle?


Must admit OP, two Pepsis and I'm off to the loo....................

Seriously can not hold my drink as long as I used to..............

I do find a large glass of wine makes me drunk quicker, and the headache.....gruesome............

but real booze...............................whiskey and coke.............. can do it all night long............. and have no hangover in the morning............

Once upon a time...years ago, I always wondered what a hangover was....... even though I used to wake up with a roaring headache.................then some kind soul told me....................................

I hardly drink either.
I dont actually get the mentality of those who brag about drinking lots and lots either.
Liver damage anyone?
Binge drinking once a week is so bad for you!!!! Now go and have a cup of tea and a custard cream on a saturday night instead.

Don't drink too much these days, used to go overboard when younger....

Then I saw a T-shirt that said....

"Instant D1ckhead, just add Alcohol"....

Have since moderated my drinking, and now have only a few glasses of ScottishFallingDown Water per session...

Ohhhh someone said about pain when they drink red bull and vodka...
When i have drunk alcohol with a fruit mixer or certain brands of wine, i get the most horrendous lower back pain...
Apparently its caused by the fruit mixing with alcohol that causes a reaction in some people.

I know thats not relevant as vodka isnt made of fruit... maybe it is the same rule for drinks made from spuds as well...

I don't drink much at the moment as i'm on a health kick.
But when i'm in the mood, i can happily drink a bottle or two of wine while i talk pish , bust some moves and then fall asleep.
My consumption has gone down the older i have got. I was never a big drinker though.

Since I mostly drink to be sociable, rather than find out how much it takes to make me puke and fall over............i wouldn't know. ask me next time I'm 19.

You do wonder why people brag about their excess drinking habits, maybe the alcohol has irepairably damaged what little brain cells they had, and they think its fun and adult to binge drink and brag about it, sure must do loads for their dating chances.

Liver damage anyone, well go to the doctors and see what he can do for ya, may give you a prescription for a pound of onions.

No I think its most people..
I have certainly noticed the difference..
After watching that documentary when that girl HAD to binge drink, names gone sorry, I decided to stick to the limits advised..
Result I'm now wasted on 3 large glasses of wine, cheap night out, no hangover, and I can last the distance..
With the added benefit of no dodgy numbers in my phone, random oh soooooooo not funny photos, and I can remember everything and everyone..

Bullsh1t, no way could you drink that much, bet you couldn't even get into double figures with the pints alone?

I think I could probably do about 10/11 pints, then I'd be outta the game. Have a habit of urinating in strange places when I get into double figures

Can't really take my beer, a person that can take their beer can stop at 2/3 pints but once I start drinking I have to stay drinking?WTF

dont drink too much at all ... two or three pints is plenty for me , and red wine just slays me ...

I think also the chemicals that they put in beer these days also makes it far worse the following day ... beer certainly used to be 'purer' thirty years ago !

LOL... I don't wish to brag... But in my wild young days at University, drinking a litre (or what it 750 cl?) bottle of Thunderbirds (maybe two) EACH was the standard way me and my mates would get "ready" to go clubbing....

And then when we hit the club... Well... Let's just say my memory goes blank from then on. So I can't really say how much I can handle LOL!



Of course I'd end up yakking my brains out on a pavement, whilst trying to shove what amounted to dog food down my gob... But this was University! This is what one just had to do... Whether it made one shred of sense of not (and now I look back... I think not!).

Well I had fun and I'm glad to say that I'm reformed now. I don't think alcohol abuse is a funny matter. In my day (damn I sound old) it just all seemed to be a bit of a laff... But now... Bloody 'ek! It's all getting a little out of control.

Pity.

i find drinking at home with the neighbours in the summer is my downfall as i have no measure of what i am drinking or how much, this is when i am undoubtably ill!!!

i dont drink an awful lot and when i do go out i drink vodka which seems to settle in my stomach ok, its when i have a glass of wine and it effects me with only one glass that i realise my tolerance isnt what it used to be

I drink a lot less than I used to.

As I get older I find the pub/club scene so boring and prefer to be entertaining at home these days.

but I can still drink anyone I know, man or woman under the table, a bottle of vodka or about 4 bottles of wine before my best friends suddenly becomes the most attractive man/woman alive.
