I6MTW Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Alcohol and Marijuana brings people together. Most philosophers arise when they are either stoned or drunk. As for living long, it all depends on genetics. The world's oldest person, Jeanne Calment lived for 122 years, she smoked , drinked, ate chocolates, till 114-115 years.

Mostly if u mix drinks, chances of getting hangovers are less. It's only when you drink neat, you have a higher chance of getting a hangover . I for one have never got a hangover. I drink only one or two pegs neat, and the rest mixed. It depends on body functioning as well. I have had bad trips from weed though, one time I had it thru bong, I was almost unconscious . velu 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whenever during company of heavy drinkers, I have had 8 to 9 drinks ( very rare )....then hangover happens. I have never tried 8-9 drinks. I think my body wouldn't handle it, I'd pass out. It depends on size of the body, and I'm 5'5 and 60 kgs, so 8-9 drinks wouldn't suit me. I usually stop at 6. If it's beer, then 3-4 if it's 650 ml. Weed is nice if it's on joint form. Weed with rock, reggae, classical bollywood are rhe best combos. Weed with Bong hits me hard. I wouldn't be able to enjoy it. I've never had much of a weed tolerance. I've had weed and alcohol at the same time , pretty nice and smooth if it's in the right combination. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yep, but the problem is when the couple drinks turn into 4 and then into 6 velu and Under_Score 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nikred Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 8/9 rounds of 50ml of hard liquor is quite high unless we drink in 4/5 hours .. Rarely I try whisky/rum , if I get high I can't close my eyes .. If I close my eyes , I will get a very bad feeling smiler to getting high speed spin in merry go round That's exactly how I feel when I am very high. The ones which I am sure to wake up with hangover.I am out and out social drinker. I can go ages without drinking and not missing it. Of late it's been even rarer. It's been about 3-4 months since I last drank. Maybe twice in 2019. All thanks to Hyderabad traffic police. I am too lazy for all that cab arrangement and stuff.But when I do drink, I am sticking to beer nowadays and not going more than 4-5 pints.

Neat is good in minimum quantity. Shots are the most dangerous, health wise and hangover wise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's empty the alcohol will hit me almost immediately and strongly. Under_Score and velu 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drinking after eating, isn't really fun for beer and most types of hard liquor, stomach becomes too full. Only wine and certain aperitif suit that.
