damn I'm hungover - the thread

No, a real man gets hangovers by drinking like a real man the night before. A real man can openly admit to having a terrible hangover provided he acts like a real man the next day by watching Simpsons DVDs all afternoon and then going for an 1/8th mile walk and getting winded. Only women and homosexuals sleep off hangovers.

I don't get many hangovers anymore because I don't drink much at one time, if I drink more than 6 beers in an evening I top off the festivities with a sports drink of some sort and wake up relatively okay the next day.
 
I didn't even drink all that much last night, but today I'm kicked by a horse. Sucks.

The last noteworthy hangover I had was in Vegas earlier this year, I drank an absolutely ridiculous amount of gin and whoopsie, at one point I ordered a "BOMBAY SAHROPIRE MITNITIRII," to which I was given a large glass of ice water with a straw, took a huge sip, then yelled "HEY THIS IS ATHWTAER@!!!!" and then magically got my martini. I don't know how, I think it was a Jedi Mind Trick scenario.
 
haha, I finally figured out what that dude says. I used to think:

:kickass: "I'm listening to Slayer and drinking beer!"

But now I know:

:kickass: "I'm not hungover, look at me go!"
 
Over the past year something has gone very wrong. I'd always have a hangover after a night of drinking. Heavy night, deadly morning.

My hangover would be relative to what I drank the night before. Yet, this year. I'd have a decent night of drinks, enough to come home pretty buzzed but with all my wits about me. I'd drink a ton of water and eat some grub before bed. Yet I'd always wake up with pretty vicious hangovers :(

I'm expecting a bad one this Sunday morning
 
^ do you eat well before, and does your body get enough water before drinking?
I've noticed that I get bad hangovers when I don't drink enough water the
day I go out drinking... just a thought... hangovers are also individuals
 
it sho' does! If I know I'm gonna be doin' some drinkin' I do my best to get all the water intake I possibly can before/after drinking.

I always stuff my face with something before hittin' the sack.

My body chemistry has failed me
 
Last night I went to bed and I took a water bottle with me, thinking to drink it before hitting the sack, but when I got up this morning, hurtin' , I noticed
the bottle is still by my bed all full... I think I passed out before even realizing where I was and whatI was doing...
haha!
Those nights dont happen too often :Smug:
 
Hydration is a big portion of the hangover. I always try to get a glass of water in between drinks, but that doesn't always happen. I find Propel helps counterbalance the diuretic effect of alcohol following too much drinking.

Lately I find that if I have a hangover, if I do some sort of light (or not so light) excercise in the morning, it clears it up. Usually the secret is not to pass out from the headache or vomit up my kidneys mid-way through, but it hasn't happened yet. :)
 
The most efficient way. A friend of mine is a paramedic, and when he was getting married, we came close to killing him with drink, but we had oxygen on hand and two 1 liter bags of the dextrose/sodium water stuff in the morning, and managed to get him to his wedding in somewhat working shape.
 
I was just kidding. I've never done that. It'd work fine though as long as you put the IV in before you started drinking :lol:
 
From what I can tell, this guy and his fellow EMTs pretty much did it every time they went drinking. And the oxygen. He swore it made the difference, so who I am to second guess :loco:

I also recall the guy confessing how he'd always wanted to be in a country band and projectile vomiting all over his bathroom, insisting on cleaning it up and falling asleep in the tub.
 
So every time they go drinking, they steal paramedic equipment paid for by taxpayers? Sound like you need to rough them up a bit, Necro.
