Odd Things you do when Hungover

    OK so we all know we do stupid things when Drunk

    But what about when you hungover? Whats odd things do you do when hungover?

    Apart from all the obvious e.g Junk food, pain killers, What helps you get through it?

    For me, I go to the shop and stand in front of the fridge for AGES making the decision what drink I will buy. Its like a hungover OCD tick, I weigh up the pros and cons of each and every drink and come to a conclusion as to which will help me out more in my hungover state. Sometimes its dark when I get out of the shop ;)

    Another thing that I don't consciously do but more just happens when extremely hungover to me is what I could only call "Urinal Paranoia" - If "I'm going" - I get these really weird flashes that I may doing it all wrong and P1ssing in a sink or something. Can't explain it - I constantly have to tell myself "No man thats what these things are here for, Look other people are doing it"
    I can't explain it, think it has something to do with me being a little bit more out of it and more on auto-pilot then I normally would be.

    Sex usually counteracts the depression...not odd though unless you count positions...

    One time in Spain I woke up still a bit drunk with a hangover approaching. I tried to make cheese on toast using only a toaster, and I can't stand solid cheese. I ended up toasting the bread, putting cheese on it, holding the toaster upside down over it to melt it, realised heat goes upwards, put the toaster back upright, held the toast upside down over the toaster, cheese fell off. Was not happy. Ended up going out and getting a burger.

    You could've just lay the toaster on it's side and slipped the bread with cheese on it in!

    I just do not function when hungover, i get hungover off 2 or 3 bottles of beer, its redicilous! I'll just lie in bed and fap until the big bad hangover is gone.

    Lie on the bed/floor/couch going "oh shit I'm going to fall off I'm going to fall off oh shit oh shit"

    There was one time where I couldn't work a glove compartment as well. Just sat there staring it, knowing that I had to change the CD, knowing that the CD I wanted was in there, but powerless to do anything about it.

    I look at a lot of porn when I'm hungover.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 86 ✭✭PatB71


    I have been known to just lie on the cold tiled bathroom floor huddled in the foetal position in my boxers which really seems to help plus I`m not too far from the great white telephone when i want to talk to God....maybe I should cut down on my alcohol intake?:confused:

    +2 I feckin hate that, I could sleep all day without a hangover but I just can't go back to sleep if I've been drinking the night before, unless I got up, had painkillers, food, gallons of water, then maybe I might get back in for another half hour.. I'm always amazed when I see people sleeping through to midday after a session.. HOW??

    think about every single mistake or bad thing ive done in my life. always seem to nearly fall over putting on my trousers etc. just become a bit of a capper really


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 906 ✭✭✭big syke

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,448 ✭✭✭✭Cupcake_Crisis


    Stay in bed and moan at people untill they bring me greasy hangover food that i cant eat cos im too ill. Good times :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,589 ✭✭✭✭dsmythy


    Unless i'm badly hungover i just get on a happy buzz. Not a care in the world. Happily just lie around watching TV with a smile on my face. Boredom won't even enter my mind for the whole day.
