    Hasn't happened yet. I've seen friends go completely insane when drunk, not too keen on it happening to me.
    Although I suspect I'll have drink forced down my throat on my 21st, but that isn't for another 2 and a half years.

    16, I can't remember which session it was though, they were all as equally thick at that age. I think it was when I bought the nagun of Hennessy, chugged it, waited 15 minutes, didn't feel drunk went and got another one chugged it. All gone within 25 minutes and I pretty much died. I remember getting sick around Swords Manor and seeing a lad that was a big scumbag at the time kicking some other lad up the road and trying to hide, he didn't see me!

    Got home to my friends gaf and had to sleep in an old car out the back, I was there for about 10 minutes before they brought me in. It felt like four or five hours though

    :(

    I was 16, and my Dad bought me the beer too...
    We were at the awards night of me winning the U16 league the previous year.
    He thought I had turned 17, lol, I was very drunk, and quite sick iirc...damn Budweiser!!!

    16. Bulmers. Classy.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 344 ✭✭scoot on


    I was either 15 or 16. Can't remember which. My friends parents were away so we decided to raid the wine cabinet. First and last time i've ever drank wine!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,746 ✭✭✭taidghbaby


    my first time i got an eyebrow shaved off!!!

    put me off for life ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    I hear ya scoot on. I went on a wine drinking marathon Friday night and I still feel a bit off.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 344 ✭✭scoot on


    I can't stand the taste of it and all my buddies warning my about the wine hangovers have made me stay well clear. I'll stick to the beer I think! It's weird as you get older though you feel like you should drink wine because that's what everybody drinks with dinner etc etc


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 37,214 ✭✭✭✭Dudess


    Meh, I don't like it with a meal - it's quite a bloating, yeasty drink so when I'm full from food, wine is the last thing I want. It's lovely with nibbles and nachos though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,818 ✭✭✭Royale with Cheese


    14, 4 cans of Bulmers. Quality night.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,706 ✭✭✭Voodu Child


    15. A sixpack of Dutch Gold in a field, Junior Cert results night. Classy times :)

    15 or 16. Linden Village, on a cold and windy night on some building site. Absolutely vile, put me off alcohol for about an entire year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,556 ✭✭✭✭AckwelFoley


    14.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,893 ✭✭✭Davidius


    Never. Haven't drank any of that junk in my life.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,503 ✭✭✭Makaveli


    16, a lot of vodka straight in a very short space of time, blacked out. Put me off vodka for years, even the smell would make me wretch.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,164 ✭✭✭seahorse


    13, in a city centre bar that shall remain nameless. The girls made me up and put me in a pair of high heels for the first time in my life and I got plastered beyond belief on two pints of budweiser. It was awful!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,900 ✭✭✭Quality


    A flagen of Linden Village when I was about 13, We were staying on my dads boat on the Shannon for the weekend. Had met these cool 16 year old boys I wanted to impress...Vomited my guts up for about 3 hours....:( Not very Impressive...

    I was 15. and first time I was so drunk i fell down and broke my wrist and had to go to A&E, it was on easter sunday and my parents did't think i was drunk and anyway,,,when i was getting the x-ray taken they started asking loads of questions...and i was like 'i slipped' and then what they did was give my mam a leaflet on underage drinking.......it was the most uncomfortable drive home ever


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,238 ✭✭✭humbert


    14 in the south of France with a very cool bunch of Scots. Was a brilliant week.

    On the wine front, love red wine, horrible horrible hangovers. I don't drink red wine to excess under any circumstances, consequences are just too severe.

    Never gotten meself drunk to the point of your stereotyped drunk behaviour.

    Worst I've gotten meself was being a lil light headed and that's it.
