    After last night I definitely think there is a thing as too much.

    Even typing is causing my brain to rattle in my skull.

    Personally i dont drink so any drink is too much.. Though when i did drink i think 8 cans of beer, each a different brand mixed in with fruitcake covered with curry sauce.. thats a bit too much... eek

    It depends what you do it with and what/how much you drink. I dont touch the stuff i'm more of a midnight horticulturalist myself.

    Are you takin the píss? Seriously? I think the majority of semi-intelligent humans know this.
    That's like telling us "The earth is round"!!!

    You've had too much when you can't walk, you're vomiting ferociously or you're fighting with people for no reason, or you're naked in a very public place :D

    I'd have thought that the world would seem MORE round when you're drunk- i.e.: you're less likely to fall over walking on a flat surface than you are on a curved one ;)

    As for how much drink is too much... if I'm driving - any drink at all is too much. If I'm not driving, I don't set myself a limit ahead of time - I just know my limit when it's come.

    From a medical stand point, the average human can safely consume up to 10 pints of beer in one week.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,230 ✭✭✭OLDYELLAR


    10 pints in a week , interesting !

    Been there done that, the carpet tongue factor in the morning was woeful, not to mention the beer breath smell in the room. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 15,817 ✭✭✭✭po0k


    Yeah, where does that 'carpet tongue' feeling come from when you're fairly sure you haven't been licking carpets?

    Certain drinks have different affects on you.

    Taking myself for example, the likes of WKD, smirnoff ice and other such pussy drinks have almost no affect. They , in my opinion, are a ridiculous waste of money as they are not only expensive, but they also never get you drunk enough. The thing is they taste so god damned nice you keep ending up buying them.

    Cider is my enemy. The odur alone is enough to give me the gawks. It gives me a thumping headache the next morning and cider burns for the rest of the day. This still does not put me off drinking it if nothing else is around.

    Beer is my friend. I am especially pally with carlsberg, carling and grolsch.

    Stout, well Guinness, I wouldn't touch anything else , is also my friend. Guinness is like a magical Nectar, it looks nice, it smells nice, and it tastes incredible. The only reason it isn't the perfect drink is because it turns your shít black, and i just don't like it when tar comes out my ass.

    Wine. Well what can i say, it gives me the tummy burns but if you want to get wrecked, start the night with a bottle.

    Spirits. I always end up drinking them at a session afterwards. These are what give me blackouts. I always say to myself "dont drink spirits, you know what they do to you" , but i'm always the one who ends up getting it as take away and bringing it back to the gaff.


    I know i have troubles, but god damn drink is good.
    This has put me in the mood for a damn good session, i wonder what would happed if i mixed all of the above into one big jug?
    Only one way to find out.....
    visit me in the hospital.

    hey when you get around to mixing that up , giv me a shout it sounds lovely , but i wouldnt say itd look too good the next day , haha.cider...mmmm my sole mate , its always there for you , calling you , giving you false confidence , everything you could want and looking and tasting great at the same time ...........i have to go get bulmers see ye .
