Hmmm … methinks I may have missed something in my initial reading. What’s the deal, **aha**? Are you getting plastered because you decided to have a good time or are you really hurting? There’s a big difference. I hope you are all right. ---

I know I’ll probably come off as a complete and total doofus asking this, but what’s being drunk like? I really don’t want to find out for myself. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by KCSuze \* > \*\*I know I’ll probably come off as a complete and total doofus asking this, but what’s being drunk like? I really don’t want to find out for myself. \*\* It’s really hard to explain. It’s like losing all your inhibitions and self-control. But the next day you feel horrible. It kinda feels good at the time, but the morning after can be hell. You’re probably not missing much. ---

You can kinda get the same feeling by hanging out with a bunch of drunk people and getting caught in the moment. DBA-drunk by association. This is especially effective if you have a drink yourself. All the fun of being drunk without the hangover. I used to swear by it. ---

Right on **aha** , we love you too! But as soon as you go to bed we’re going to move all the furniture around, put all your CD’s in the wrong cases and make macaroni and cheese… ---

Cheers **aha**. I indulged myself at a friend’s birthday party this last weekend. I hadn’t had that much alcohol in a very long time and had a ball. I had made plans to spend the night so I didn’t have to worry about driving. Woohoo! Just take two aspirins and (don’t) call me in the morning! 🙂 ---

**Q.E.D.** – don’t forget to mention that subset of people who don’t get any ill effects from too much alcohol, and for them, it’s like losing all inhibitions without any next day effects. I still wouldn’t bother, **KCSuze**. (Vomiting depends on one’s tolerance for alcohol and other factors. Once you start feeling queasy, it’s a good thing to quit. Still up, **aha**?)
