That would explain the times in my early 20s when I went to bed with Bo Derek and woke up with Bo Diddley

Eh drink a couple of bottles of water after you stop drinking and in the morning have some more water and a nice bacon sandwich.  If you can keep it down you'll feel better quicker.

If 12 shots ranging from whiskey, rum, bourbon, vodka, ect. including absinthe (sadly nontraditional) 2-3 minute spans from each other doesn't do it, I don't know what will.

My friend gave up after #9, had a horrible hangover the next morning.


Was quite fun not being able to walk, to say the least. Giggled like an idiot the whole night.

Only time I have been hung over was after breaking the golden rule.
"Beer before liquor, never been sicker"
To say the least I was out of commission until 4pm, couldn't even hold down water.

Also the only times I have ever thrown up from drinking were when I drank cheap beer.

Now I stick to whatever I started with, only downside is it takes much more for me to feel any effects.
