12674109, Wow, this also explain "beer before liquor, never sicker" Posted by Cocobrotha2, Fri Dec-12-14 03:06 PM
"Additionally, the carbonation in beer actually speeds up the absorption of alcohol. As a result, following beer with liquor gives the body even less time than usual to process the toxins.

12673751, Prolly 'cause folks tend to spend white liquor money on dark Posted by PoppaGeorge, Fri Dec-12-14 01:00 PM
you can't be cheap with it. Can't get mad 'cause that $6 fifth of generic Safeway whiskey did you wrong. The only dark liquor I know you can go semi cheap on is brandy. A fifth of Korbel, El Presidente, or E&J VSOP will set you back less than $10 and is pretty good stuff.

12673904, This don't apply as I'm a 1738/Glenmorangie kinda cat... Posted by RaphaelSoulLee, Fri Dec-12-14 01:55 PM
...but there are a myriad of reasons my homies stopped. Most say the sugar in it.

12673924, Usually it's sense memory from a really bad experience Posted by Marauder21, Fri Dec-12-14 02:01 PM
They got way too drunk off _______ one time and years later, just the sight of a bottle of that or the smell makes them nauseous.
Not sure why you'd need to apply it to everything that's the same color, but people are weird.

12673940, The misconception that clear liquor is somehow purer Posted by bigkarma, Fri Dec-12-14 02:08 PM
I used to think that if the alcohol was purer, that I would have less of a hangover...which is kinda true, however clear alcohol is no purer.
Maybe high end vodka is a cleaner purer drink, but everything else...
|
12674068, also ppl think brown liquor consumption leads to bad behavior. Posted by SoWhat, Fri Dec-12-14 02:50 PM
or that it's more likely to cause bad behavior than other types of liquor.

12674081, gin does that to me. Posted by SoWhat, Fri Dec-12-14 02:53 PM
it's not brown liquor.
brown liquor also doesn't create especially bad hangovers for me.
|
12675716, that's probably bc gin is disgusting though Posted by MiracleRic, Mon Dec-15-14 11:55 AM
it tastes like tree skeet
it's the brown of the whites
kinda how like tuna is the chicken of the sea
|
12673978, no matter how little i have the next day is always a "off" Posted by double negative, Fri Dec-12-14 02:24 PM
at least directly
having an old fashioned or several is fine
having just A SINGLE SHOT
and the next day I'm instantly stupid
|
12674054, Its not good for you Posted by ShinobiShaw, Fri Dec-12-14 02:46 PM
I like to drink but that shit is not good for you. Makes you feel good for a span of 2-3 hours and sometimes that is all you need but the next day not good.
If someone refuses to drink anything let them be.

All I drink. Henny, Courvos, Jamesons, Black Label, Red Label, VSOP, Christian Bros, Paul Masson ... Myers Rum (bloodclot!)
I don't mess w/ brown rum tho- effing nasty.
|
12674341, oh, you like brandy??? Posted by PoppaGeorge, Fri Dec-12-14 05:05 PM
hit up your nearest "good" liquor stoe or (of all places) Walmart and cop you a bottle of Korbel brandy.
You'll never look at Paul Masson or Christian Brothers again.

12674237, brown liquor smells coming out of your pores the next day Posted by cgonz00cc, Fri Dec-12-14 04:29 PM
And no amount of ahowering can stop it
After graduating GT my roommate and i both worked at Buckhead Dicks Sporting Goods for a few months in the summer
After one particularly long night we were asked by the manager to not drink dark liquor the night before we opened the store because we smelled "like a distillery"
