Eating and Alcohol absorbtion aren't as linked as people think. Eating will slow the absorbtion into your bloodstream, however the effects are less than what people think. The liver is the main metabolizing factor with alcohol.

Age isn't a factor, generally people who drink more frequently have a higher tolerance, so those who've been drinking for many years will be able to handle more.

women have a lower % of water in their bodies than do men, resulting in less water to dilute the alcohol.

Alcohol tolerance GENERALLY rises depending on frequency and amounts that you drink, I would say about 7 out of 10 will agree. It's a fact, simple and proven regardless of the effects on you personally.

I know many people who haven't been sick from drinking, the term may be misleading for many reasons, including that he may not drink all that much (comparitively to his tolerance level) he may mean never vomiting which is a sign of alcohol poisoning, or perhaps he is misdiagnosing his condition, a morning headache isn't always a hang over, but it can be. Fatigue etc.. there are many signs and many possible meanings. I hadn't ever been sick from drinking alcohol till my 31st birthday. Now I get ill upon occasion.

I never puke, sometimes i wish i could. I normally never get sick feeling at all though. In the last few months i will start drinking at 5:30 on Friday and stop at approx 8 Saturday morning. Over that time period i will consume anywhere from 20-35 drinks. After that i sleep for a few hours and do it again until early sunday. I normally wake up early on sunday and get breakfast and proceed to feel dead all day.

Edit trying to stop that behavior heheheh.

Also, the reason i didn't make the pole include those high of numbers is because i didn't think for most of the people here it would be needed.

One of the regulars at my work is a total piss head Razz

his name is Pete.. hes a 50 year old Joiner, and he litterally comes in at 1 PM each day to drink 8-9 pints of John Smiths before going home.. then he comes back at around 6-7 pm and drinks 6-7 Cuba Libre's in a row before staggering home. I dunno how the fuck this guy does it Laughing but he is a comedy legend, always have a joke with him at the bar.

When Im serving him I sometimes feel a little guilty, what if he doesnt make it home cos hes so wasted etc.. but I guess hes been doing it for years so is used to it.

I normally only get the shivers the day after the binge, typically on sunday. That is the main reason i'm quitting for now. Apparently, when you get the shivers that means you've caused damage from drinking.

Another beauty. Black death cocktail. Also known as black and tan. Half Strongbow or Bass, then slowly pour Guiness over a spoon until it fills the glass. The Guiness settles on top.

Vodka is my drink of choice when I'm drinking around folks who aren't drinking. No alcoholic breath. Wink Anybody else notice that if you drink V out of the freezer you don't get the hangovers ?

You ALWAYS get hangovers if you drink much (i.e.>0.5L).

Clearly this is not something others have noticed. Confused I agree that if you drink more than a bottle alone you aren't going to be able to avoid a hangover. I have simply found that the toxicity of V is lowered by keeping it in the freezer.
