a terrible night of way too much vodka has completely ruined any vodka for me. It was two years before orange juice was even a remote possibility. Good thing I didn't really like OJ to begin with.
I got really drunk on Busch Light & Boonesfarm (I feel so awesome for typing that) and we went to a rock bar in Cincinnati called Annie's. Man that place ruled. Anyway, a 90's rock cover band was playing, and I was hammered. They were playing all these 90's staples, and I just kept yelling for them to "Play some Dokken! Play some Dokken!!!" over & over. I am not making this up.
Ten years on, the details are a bit fuzzy, but I remember yelling "Play Dokken!" after they played The Toadies' "Sweet Angel" (dude's voice was perfect for that song, nailed it).
Apparently I really was aggravating them and they finally played a Dokken song! They played "It's Not Love," and it ruled. I thrashed and sang the whole way through.
Thrilled, I drunkenly thanked the singer "That was awesome! You played Dokken!" after they were done. And then I apparently walked up to some long-haired dude (he had long hair, so "of course" he liked Dokken) and was telling him how awesome it was that they played Dokken. Also, apparently, he agreed that it was awesome.
Went home, got sick, threw up all over my bathroom. Woke up with a huge headache.
This story comes up every time my buddies & I get together or go see a band (ie, "Hey Fanch, are you going to tell the band to play some Dokken?"). They even tried to get me to do this at my own wedding reception a few months ago. I wasn't drunk so I didn't do it.
Anyway, I over did it. I'll still drink Busch Light or Boonesfarm though.
If I have drunk it, I have overdone it at one point or another, so I would be one sober SOB if I could never touch those drinks again. They don't call me Ledbelly for nothing!
All I have to do is revel in the everyday....then do it again tomorrow
They say every sin is deadly but I believe they may be wrong...I'm guilty of all seven and I don't feel too bad at all
I was 16 yrs old or so.
My buddy & I bought our tickets from Greyhound bus.
$70.00 got ya a ticket to the show and transportation.
They had a rule for us passengers.
One 6 pack of beer per person was allowed.
My buddy & I had a 12 pack of beer & a half gallon of vodka & OJ on ice as we entered the bus, (they never carded us.)
People were smoking dope in the restroom @ the back of bus.
It was ON like nobodies fuckin business.
The buses stop for dinner, we're already very much toast.
We didn't buy dinner, spent all our money on more beer, Coors to be exact.
I asked some dope smokin dudes who were in their 30's if they'd buy us some beer.
6 cases of Coors was purchased.
When I stepped off the bus in the Busch Stadium's parkinglot holy shit, the world was spinning out of control.
Staggering into the stadium, my buddy & I couldn't function well enough on our own to find our seats, some dude helped us locate our seats.
I was smoked, I was puking in my seat trying not to vomit on anyone.
Unfortunately some very classy ladies in front of me evidently got some of it on them.
One turns around & says to me, "would you please stop spitting on us".
I'm like, "I am very sorry," as I was covered in my own sickness.
I then past out, woke up some moments later.
Continued to rock out, got back to the bus, partied a bit more.
I was a complete & utter dumb fuckin kid.
As painful as it was, it was one of the better moments in my concert going experiences.
It rocked.

My big brother thinks it's funny to buy people a shot of microwaved gin on their 21st. It's not too funny when you are doing 21 shots. But, I have carried on the tradition. It's funny from the other side when you are doing one shot at a 21st bday bash.
Remember.... warm gin, when you are asked what the worst shot is.
I once drank a case - yes, a CASE of Regal Select (beer). We were high on something that made the beer totally not effective - and we were drinking it to read the bottle caps. Two cases, two teenagers, in the woods with a fire - lots of fun Cannot drink any beer anymore!
A fifth of Tequila, bag of limes, shaker of salt, and two chicks bitching about their boyfriends = bad combo. Cops came - told us to go home - when my sisters boyfriend took us home, I got out of the car and fell on the ground. My mom open the front door and I stood up long enough to say "Hi". She closed the door - I fell down again. Turns out she was watching through the window and thought it was hilarious - so she did it a couple more times. :rolleyes: Thanks mom! I was unable to drink tequila for about 10 years! Thank goodness I've gotten over that - cause I like my margaritas!
I know there is more...but will save those for one a "most embarrassing things you've ever done" threads
Vodka OJ, havent had one since grade 7. Me and 2 of my friends drank a 40oz of vodka and the three of us puked all night. So I haven't had one in 12-13 years.
Tequila. I can't even smell tequila without feeling like a i have to ralph. EW!
In junior high, I took some tequila to school and drank it straight first thing in the morning. Did not even feel it. Now I'm tipsy from half a class of blush.

oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
Another Tequila hater here but it may have been something to do with the pint of wine I drank before hand. It was just Tequila I could smell and taste for days afterwards.

There's a long list...
Raspberry Vodka - after the ill advised high school binge drinking experience that ended in my friends' mother rubbing my back and promising it would be OK in the morning.
Tequlia - after a vicious Praire Fire and Stop Light on my 21st birthday..but I'm working back up to it. Gotta get back on the horse that bucked you, right?
Jack Daniels - well..maybe it was my ex-boyfriend who overdid the Jack..but that alone is enough to give it a pretty negative connotation in my head. Can't even smell the stuff now.

Im fairly sure theres nothing worse on earth that tastes worse than Grappa.
The stuff tastes like fire, general burning, pure alcohol, death, pain, misery, despair, mud, stones, grapes and lastly; regret.
And its only 40%...likely to motherfucking kill you.
yikes.
when i was a young dumb fucker
i drank plenty of that trashy fiery liquid
holy shit that stuff sucks
