This prednisone takes the piss out of me, I have to nap at least once or twice a day, and I no longer have late evenings. Fortunately I'm going in to learn of my biopsy results today, so I might get to start lowering the dose and eventually stop taking them entirely! Hurray! :v:
my first beer since a very long time [url]https://www.dropbox.com/s/i9dmiwkpojkxbvs/2013-12-03%2000.27.07.jpg[/url]
Dimple pint glasses are the best. I have 3 or 4 in my cupboard because I always get trashed at the local and then walk home with them. I don't think they've noticed yet.
[QUOTE=Lonestriper;43042366]Wow, they really did find a way to make a Bloody Mary worse. Never got the fascination with it, especially since its a 'hair of the dog' kind of drink. Who on earth would want to drink a spicy, slightly bitter alcoholic tomato juice to settle their stomach in the morning?[/QUOTE] No homie It's clamato juice, not tomato. It's a slightly milder version of tomato juice with less viscosity and a small amount of clam juice. It's a Canadian thing. Clamato is popular here and is available in any off-sale/license. It can be mixed into beer or the Caesar posted earlier. Also, I wouldn't touch a Caesar in the morning; it's a summertime afternoon delight, a spicy tangy drink to have between beers. A bit of a niche drink, sure... but still popular enough that any bar in western Canada will have the ingredients at the ready. I'm really not doing it justice, you would have to try it to see if you like it. It's nothing like a Bloody Mary.
clamato and beer ewww
My room and all my clothes now smell of Stout and cigarettes. I spent the last night at a Trad gig in some bar downtown with friends, the deal was you had to sing a song or play a tune to get a free pint and fag (Majors btw, like smoking tar), failing that you could tell a story, but it had to be as Gaeilge. Great fun, ended up drinking far too much, I did a fairly good rendition of "The South Armagh Sniper" Shame I can't remember it today :v:
Going to get Drunk for the very first time tomorrow night, we will be drinking Rum and Vodka, Any tips on how to not die?
Drink with mixers and slam a glass of water ever hour or so [editline]7th December 2013[/editline] oh and don't be stupid and have 10 drinks or something because you will get really drunk and throw up everywhere. [editline]7th December 2013[/editline] Oh also eat a burger or something right before you start drinking because it makes feeling drunk a whole lot better. If you drink on an empty stomach its like getting a headache in my experience. Also, it means you wont end up buying a kebab at midnight drunk all the time
[QUOTE=R-money;43095676]Going to get Drunk for the very first time tomorrow night, we will be drinking Rum and Vodka, Any tips on how to not die?[/QUOTE] Decide on a limit before you start, one of the main symptoms of being drunk is not knowing when to stop drinking.
[QUOTE=R-money;43095676]Going to get Drunk for the very first time tomorrow night, we will be drinking Rum and Vodka, Any tips on how to not die?[/QUOTE] Have a piece of lemon next to you if you're shotting or something then just take a bite of it right after you swallow, helps taste and vomit reflexes. Don't use this to go past your limit though - believe me, drinking a lot of alcohol is fun, drinking too much alcohol is not.
am i the only one who can take tequila raw or something? other liquors too, i can just drink it casually without any mixers
Any Bartenders in the thread?
Stormcharger works as a bartender, but he's banned at the moment.
Ah thats cool Im a bartender as well.
are you allowed to drink while you're working?
[QUOTE=/B/rother;43101470]are you allowed to drink while you're working?[/QUOTE] Haha no man Ive always been advised against it. Its like working in any food joint that serves alcohol, drinking on shifts is usually prohibited no matter how much fun it would be.

about a week ago I was really depressed and I got fucked up hammered off a bunch of rum and when I woke up the next morning it turned out that night I had apparently decided to burn myself on the arm a couple times with a lighter pretty badly i dont think i should drink anymore [editline]8th December 2013[/editline] [QUOTE=Giraffen93;43099114]am i the only one who can take tequila raw or something? other liquors too, i can just drink it casually without any mixers[/QUOTE] I can take liquor straight, but unless it's good stuff I usually only do that when I hate myself

I was stupid and only discovered all of that by trial and error so i'm happy I helped. Also get dissolvable aspirin for the morning after if you plan to have a wild one [editline]8th December 2013[/editline] and by trial and error I mean all error [editline]8th December 2013[/editline] Also was at a house party and met an American dude who was so happy the drinking age was 18 in Australia. it was very cute.
the drinking age in america makes almost every teenager who drinks act like a shithead about it i mean, people here who are 15-17 also often act as if alcohol was the best thing ever, but nowhere near as much as most americans ive met
[QUOTE=R-money;43109913]Thanks for the tips mate, they worked great, I'm pretty sure I didn't die[/QUOTE] Don't get into the habit of drinking alone.
[QUOTE=Mamok Zalku;43113003]Don't get into the habit of drinking alone.[/QUOTE] why is that? imho drinking is best alone i dislike being around people when i'm drunk the majority of the time, but then again im rather introverted and not a fan of being anything other than sober around people; i save my drugs for when im at home, alcohol included

I like to drink all the time in general
There's nothing wrong with having a couple of beers by yourself, it beats sitting there sober thats for sure. Bonus points if you are talking to people over skype because then you have an excuse
I plow through cases on my own. I go through liquor too, the local joke about me is that I'm the only one who walks to a party with two 26ers and walks out. I've always carried a 40-60 oz bottle of JD and some rum or vodka. So I mix freely and what not. I am almost always fine, until I mix weed. Which seems to happen often, so it's not always great. If I stick to my booze I am generally fine. I remember going to a club for someone's birthday and I ordered well over a dozen shots. I still don't know how to be all loose and fun like everyone else while drunk, I have some retarded constitution which controls me, else such strong anxieties that no amount of alcohol can even crack it...
[QUOTE=Lonestriper;43129166]There's nothing wrong with having a couple of beers by yourself, it beats sitting there sober thats for sure. Bonus points if you are talking to people over skype because then you have an excuse[/QUOTE] Yup, I love drinking a few beers and talking on skype.
I like to drink after I've drunk. [editline]10th December 2013[/editline] It never stops.
