any way I have some Q's....first of all I'll just start by saying what happend...(oh, I made a topic about that I was going to drink some vodka like 2 weeks ago, any way I never got a chance to, because my mom asked me to help straitening up the basement, I didn't even think about moving the vodka, because I thought that she wouldn't do any thing with it, but she was cleaning out the box that it was in and was like "why is this here, it must be old" and be for I could say any thing she dumped it out into a sink we have down there, well I guess I couldn't say any thing any way, or she'll be like "what does it matter to you if I got rid of it") any way it started yesterday, I was going to help my older sister (who is 26) do some yard work, she lives like 10 minutes a way...so I got there and spent like an hour on the work, when she was like come in of some thing to eat, so I went in, I got some food, and she said did you ever taste this stuff, it was a bottle of this stuff called Bacardi Hurricane it is a 25 proof (I'm not sure exactly what that means), so I said no and she gave me about an inch in a cup, it was good, so she filled up a water bottle with some, it was a 15 oz. water bottle I think...she also filled one with some strawberry wine...by that time it was time to get back to my house, because she was going to a doctors appointment, so she drove me back to my house and I got out my other sister was there, who is 16...so I drank about half of each bottle, I didn't feel any thing so I drank the rest of both bottles...then about 5 minutes later I started to feel a little weird, the only way I would describe it like a mix between, being high, and the feeling I got the time I took oxy (but it was like 3 times more stronger of a feeling) the hole thing only lasted like 2 hours though....ok now I have some questions.... 1. why did it only last 2 hours? 2. I liked the affects, but it wasn't like i was expecting...like in movies when you see people that are drunk there a falling all over the place and not really making sense when they talk, and when they show them the next day there all like I don't remember a thing, what happened, and stuff...I remembered mostly every thin that happened, things are a little fuzzy though, and I wasn't falling all over the place either, I was stumbling a little, but that was it...why wasn't I acting like the drunk people you normally see? did I not drink enough? but I'm not really complaining, I didn't really want to act like that, I was happy with the feeling I got... 3. Is the effect's that I said normal, like is that what usually happens, if I drink more would I have the same effects, or are there different ones that come when you drink more? And do they would last longer if you drink more? 4. Is it true that when your drunk you don't really remember most of what happened when you where drunk, because like on show and in movies, you see the people next day and there all like I don't remember a thing, what happened, and stuff like that, but when I drink I want to remember it, because why do it if your not going to remember it? 5. what does the proof number mean, and what's the difference in the proofs?
1-4. All this depends on the amount you drink. If you drink more it'll last longer, you'll stumble more, have problems standing up, and so on. If you drink enough then you will possibly wake up with no idea of what happenend the night before. Trust me. From experience, this is NOT a good feeling. In moderate amounts, alcohol can be OK. But (once again, from experience) drinking large quantities can turn a pleasant experience into a bad one. Not to mention hangovers. There's nothing like the feeling of having someone constantly whacking you in the head with a mallet. 5. The proof of a drink pertains to the percentage of alcohol in a drink. If something is 80 proof, then it means it is 40 % alcohol. Proof = (% of alcohol) x 2 So, something that has a proof of 25 is roughly 12.5 percent alcohol. Be careful of drinks with high proofs. IMO, they generally taste of rubbing alcohol or paint thinner. They also can be flammable.
hunnie, you dont wanna be falling all over the place and stuff the first time you really drink. drinking is complex and gets old. just enjoy it and dont think too much.
try 151. 4 shots will have you feeling like the guys in the movies..... probably a lot more drunk actually......
well, if your intent on getting drunk and having it last...Bacardi 151 is a quick way to do that one. its 75.5% alcohol. now i wouldn't recomend just going out and getting that, i'd say build up to it with lower alcohol percentages. cuz you sound like your just starting to drink so you probably dont' know your limitations. so just be careful and have fun. myself, i've already went and did that part of my life. i'm the "wierd" one in my drinking group who gets good beer instead of that massproduced crap like budwieser.
Yeah, me too. I rarely drink liquor anymore, and I'd rather drink a six-pack of good tasting beer rather than most of the piss beers on the market.
yeah, it was my first time...the title was supposed to say "I got drunk for the first time...I think" But I messed up writing it....
It is not time n your life yet for getting drunk. Trust me. You should wait to drink a lot until you are with older, mature people who know how to handle someone that has had too much. It is very scary having way too much to drink and not knowign what to do. When you are throwing up every five minutes and can even see atright, you get kind of panicked soemtimes, and it isn't a good experience.
Getting drunk wasn't very fun for me after I got to be about 17...it gets old I think. It just seems that get completely drunk is immature and shouldn't be occuring by the time you are actually old enough to drink.
Or maybe people just start too young? Anyways I love to drink, I haven't been doing it lately though. And it's fucked up that this girl had smoked pot and done oxycotton before ever drinking. ok...
Whats the big deal with drinking anyway? Is it just an american thing? i mean over here no one cares, kind of a common thing to go out for a drink just as a social thing. i cant remember the first time i got drunk, I just know how alcohol affects me, i know what gives me a hangover and what doesnt. i also know when to stop drinking and i dont binge drink. its weird, it seems to me if parents just let their kinds drink in moderation when they're younger they learn how to handle it and dont have to drink behind their back.
It is an American thing...people here like to do things that are considered "naughty"...we are rebellious over here lol I definately DO NOT agree with the idea of parents letting their kids drink...maybe after they hit like 18 or something. My friend used to drink with her parents on holidays from the age 15 and up when she turned 17 they let her drink every once in a while...and now at 19 she has been a binge drinker for 4 years and is nothing but a loser with a loser boyfriend.
4 shots to be that drunk? no way, it takes me like 8-10 shots of 80 proof alcohol to have me stumbling around, really drunk, and i am not even a heavy drinker... Peace and Love, Dan
Oh shit, yeah, i just noticed that, cuz when i read your post i just skimmed through it and didn't read the 151 part. Peace and Love, Dan
