First night getting drunk - fave drink of the night

[ignus]

Friday night i went out w/ my cousins and some other peeps and got drunk for the first time. i wasnt totally drunk-off-my-ass, and for some reason every time i took a whiz i felt a lot more sober afterwards. and i felt totally fine again like an hour after i stopped drinking. anyways, heres what i had and how i like it (in order). my cousins pretty much picked these out for me and i dont care for beer, so heres the list:

White Zinfadel(sp): i had like 3 glasses, didnt really like it
Vodka Lemonade: good :) tasted like lemonade w/ a kick
Long Island Iced Tea: omg this was good :)
Snowcone (UV Vodka (blue raspberry)+ sprite): omg it was like drinking an Icee :D soooo good! i woulda had more but i didnt wanna puke or anything.

fave was the snowcone :D i didnt even have a hangover. i guess i stopped too early :lol:

[Crazy Hobbit]

Ahhhh...I see some classic mistakes there, young one.


Rule #1: Never mix grape and grain. Having the wind and the grain alcohol in the same stomach will lead to a grain alcohol revolt to overthrow the grape aristocracy.

Rule #2: I have no idea what UV vodka is, which is one of the reasons why this is rule #2. If this is a flavoured vodka, then you're setting your liver up to hate you. After a quick google search, I've found this is an American vodka, which makes sense now that I think about it. It's blue, it's flavoured, it's vodka, must be American. Nasty nasty nasty. I'm a vodka purist. If it's not Ukrainian, Russian, Polish, German or Finnish, then my liver will sucker punch my stomach.

Rule #3: See Rule #1 and don't proceed to Rule #2 after you break rule #1.

a. i hope you didn;t drink and drive
b. a glass of water before bed really helps kill hangover potential. (maybe you got lucky this time)
c. If you hated the white zin, whyyyyyyyyy did you drink 3 glasses?!?!

and I see you tend towards the fro-fru drinks.
;)

i wasnt driving, im smarter than that ;)
my cousin was telling me to drink water but i never did
i drank 3 glasses cuz my cuz bought a bottle and no one else wanted any :( i feel bad wasting stuff :lol:
i dont like beer, and i didnt want to go straight to the hard stuff, so i was drinking fruity drinks :P

[LilPuppy]

After he said he doesn't like beer I thought this thread should have been locked........... :|

[LionRampant]

i dont like beer,
Neither did I, but you'll start drinking it eventually. Especially when you find one that's for you.


and i didnt want to go straight to the hard stuff, so i was drinking fruity drinks :P
Yea, fruity..... :roll:

[SpongeBob]

Bah, I'd like to amend Sauer's rules.

I, for one, don't believe you cannot mix grape and grain. But, I do believe this, Rule 1, never, ever, drink White Zinfandel. It's a travesty that such a bad varietal has caused true Zinfandel to now often take the name "Red" Zinfandel. Zinfandel pwns joo, white zinfandel suX0rs like being sniped with an M60 at 325 metres.

I was thinking of mentioning that too, but it's plainly obvious the guy likes that kind of thing. Not that there's anything wrong with liking sweet things, and you can't help what you like or don't like, but, I mean, he actually admitted to liking fruity drinks. Admitted is the key word there. Don't do that again Ignus. Dude. For the love of humanity and non-gay men everywhere, say you love beer. Good, old fashioned heavy beer. Brewed Barley. Happy Hops. Necter Honey from the Monks.

He's just the kind of guy that might possibly keep the White Zinfandel in a Box thing industry going ... forgot the name ... it's in a nylon bag in a box ... grrrrr hate when i forget things ...

anyway...If he goes to a bar and orders Zima, I'm hiring a hitman.

I am non-beer man too.. so shoot... but they are all right... NO WHITE ZINFANDEL
and stick with real mixes... real vodka and something.... no flavoured... be a man

Absolutely! If it's a martini and it has "chocolate" in the name, then it's not a martini.

[MASH]

Hey Ignus... If you don't like beer, you should try Coors.

Beer of the moment:

:nod:

(Italian lager, but same difference)

[ignus]

:lol: at you guys

i dont want to become an alcoholic, so im trying to steer clear of developing the liking of beer. both of my male cousins on that side have become rather alcoholic b/c of that. now they pound down a 12-pack of Bud Light every night. i cant afford that!

i'll prolly try some more manly vodka or scotch or whatever type drinks, but i think those were good for a start.

[Otto]

ignus....you need to check this out....maybe you wont be drinking so much next time.....This could be you. (http://www.basement-inc.com/portfolio/flash/tv_ibc_monkey.swf)

Or this one....is this forum safe???? just delet (http://pics.ntm.at/lol/waytodrunk.jpg)

What more should I say. (http://files.deviantart.com/f/2004/11/0/9/drunk.swf)

On a serious note, it's not the alcohol that makes you an alcoholic. It's the behaviour. Alcohol consumption is merely a symptom of the disease. You can drink alcohol like a fish all the time and yet not be an alcoholic. The adverse is true, you can NOT drink at all and still be an alcoholic.

Also, your notion of not drinking beer turning you into an alcoholic is absurd if you drink other alcoholic beverages. Beer consumption is the same as Blueberry Vodka consumption. They're both the same drug.

He is right there is also a gene they have discovered that people with also have a greater chance of becoming one (addictive gene or something) I got about a dozen of those....... :|

If you want something sweet, try some different wines out. If you can find something made with the chambourcin grape, you're set; they're generally very sweet. Also, try a nice bottle of Port. Ooooooooh, and Reisling. Can't forget the Reisling. I can sit down and knock back 3 bottles of a decent Reisling no problem. My head and wife will both try to kill me in the morning, but hey, everything has its price. A good bottle of Reisling with a nice Cuban cigar. Better than sex. Trust me on this, I know alcohol. Bud is pizz, as is Coors, Miller, Michelobe, Corona, and you get what you pay for. I know, because in my youth, that's what we all drank. Try a Sam Adams, or Pete's Wicked Ale if you want to go Domestic, or see if there are any brew pubs near you. Brew pubs make good beer, and usually have at least 5 varieties that they make themselves. If you want something better and still in a bottle, try Guinness or Bass. Or Harp, that's milder. Don't confuse appreciation of fine drink as being an alcoholic, you can still enjoy it, and even get drunk without being a drunk.

Don't listen to Chaly, Ignus. Never ever ever ever ever drink port wine or reisling. you'll be attacked on three fronts. The brain cells will start the revolution. The liver cells will come up from below and your stomach cells will sneak in behind you and hold you while the liver stabs you in the heart. The the remaining brain cells will turn your mind into Cuba, being embargoed by the wife and friends. You'll find solace only in late 60's model washing machines and chevrolet automobiles.

Ignore him, Ignus. The war, while inevitable, will be a short one. And after the war, you will be better prepared for the next invasion. In fact, don't think of it as a war; think of it as an invasion. Your troops will soon be seasoned vets, ready for anything, and eagerly awaiting the next incursion. The only time I've ever had a 'bad drunk' on port or reisling, there were other circumstances. Namely, also drinking Jack&Coke. And smoking cigars. And eating too much pernil (Puerto Rican roasted pork). But that combo would have made a gorilla sick.

Ignore the Bot, Ignus, regarding my ignore.

They'll be seasoned alright. And pickled too. No need to make the troops feel depressed enough that their morale falls through your diaphram. Port wine is notorius for hurting the ingestor. Port is incredibly high in sugar content, as well as reisling is. This is the reason why people have such nasty hangovers after drinking wine, particularly a port wine.

Tell them, Heino. give it to them old sk0ol.

[Heino]

Congeners! Evil byproduct from the manufacture of alcohol! (I had to research hangovers for a paper in my biochem class a while back) They are complex organic molecules. Congeners are what help to give alcohol its odor, flavor and what not. They tend to occur more frequently and in higher concentration in sweeter and darker types of alcohol, such as the aforementioned port and beers like the Optimator, both of which have a high sugar content and therefore, tend to develop higher degrees of congeners during their creation. The more impurities in an alcohol, the higher the level of the hangover. Clear spirits tend to produce the least hangover and dark, cheap spirits the worst.
