Check out some real head-fuck alcoholic brews:

PINGA ~ 100% (!!) proof Brazilian brandy, made from cane sugar. It's Brazil's official drink, and costs about 50p a litre.

GRAPPA ~ Type of brandy invented by the Italians. Made from left-over grape skins, seeds, and stalks after they've been pressed to make wine. Typically 80% proof!

CALVADOS ~ An apple-based drink, made by distilling cider a further two times. Produces a fiery 40% proof spirit that's usually drunk straight, in a large brandy glass.

SANG THIP ~ Thai "whiskey", whose 80% proof supposedly disguises the amphetamines and hallucinogens that the drink also contains.

POTEEN ~ Clear moonshine made from potatoes in Ireland. Can be up to 180% proof (!!!)


"So that'll be 2 Pinga's, one with ice, one without; 3 Grappa's with coke; 4 bottles of Sang Thip; and 6 cans of Poteen ... Oh aye - And 6 Calvados' - with straws - for the girlies ..."

:spaced: :mashed: :drunk:

Aye, but remember that the %proof figure neds to be divided at least by AT LEAST 2 to get the original alcoholic content. If drinks were anywhere near 70-90&% proof figure, you'd go blind (and more than likely die) as alcohol (as we drink it) is still a VERY potent poison.

Also, on a more cool but weird tip, the reason you get thumpin' headz the next morning is this: After drinking a shite load of alcohol, your body becomes dehydrated (as we all know) and it is the (up to 2% mass) shrinking of your brain away from the skull's protective membrane that triggers pain receptors in your head, thus giving you a mighty sore head the next morn.

So its official, heavy drinkers do in fact become pea-brains.




Thats me officially fucked

Here's some advice my old man gave me years back. You're going out and you know it's gonna be a heavy one, just before you go out (or, if you can still remember, when you come home)take 1 anti-inflam tablet. Can lessen your hangovers enormously! I've been out on 10+ pint binges and felt absolutely fine the next morning!

And no, Ive not tried taking 2 :p

More like:
Aparrently, if you aren't too pissed to remember, and if you can actually be fuckin arsed to drink 5 pints of water before going to bed after a piss up, without barfing the entire lot back up 5 minutes later with the dodgy donner kebab yhad on the way home; you wont get a hangover ... :drunk:

Or ... How to kill a pill-monkey:-

Give em the exact same advice ...
"Yeah sure! Knocking back 5 - 10 pints of water as quickly as possible will make sure yhave a nice, clear head in the morning ..." :mashed: :rip:

i think you'll find the advice is 2 pints of water, 5 pints would dilute your blood and you would die !!:rip:

Well i try and drink a pint of water before i go to bed when im wasted, and it usually helps. Ive never heard 5 pints of water thing before - but im sure 5 pints wouldnt kill you.

Too much water apparently flushes all the electrons out of your system. No electrons, no life, so they say anyway. I say its all bollocks and im going to go and sit under the drinks tower at work and drink one of them fuck off bottles now.

Nice meeting you all

:cry: < me

I think I've barfed out most of my electrons anyway over the last couple of weeks. 5 pints it is then

If you want to know the best hangover cure for those excrutiating morning headaches, crack a raw egg into a salt-rimmed pint glass full of milk. now down it. honest.

yum

:mashed:

We actually got some1 to do that once, he barfed into the pint glass when he got through about half of it! :laff:

some absinthes easily reach 110% proof..theres some stuff from switzerland which is about 90 quid a bottle and would probably kill lesser mortals with its ridiculous alchohol content.
and as for hangover cures..i find the pint of water before you sleep is the best..and a full english breakfast x2 in the morning does the trick..

My tip: A bottle o' Ginger (Irn-Bru) wi' a deep-fried Pizza Supper, cures any hangover guaranteed, monosaccharides and saturated fats to provide energy and the water in the drink to rehydrate the body. And it tastes freakin' great as well!!!!

Booya!!!!

me pa used to bring back this stuff from holland - stroh rum i think it was called - 80% shit, nasty as hell, but got you fucked.

personally, hair of the dog works best for me, and a nice cone - after an hour you cant even feel your head.

sang thip is a quality drink - i was in Thailand in '99 and lived off that stuff - in fact, there are 2 out there - the other is called meekhong and it was that i prefered

on the beaches in the techno bar's (on the southern islands) you'd get a bottle (75cl) and two cans of coke in a bucket of ice for about 5 quid, and just that kept me and my ex-girlfriend dancing till dawn night after night --- everything in thailand was full of amphetamines. (even some beer - 1 called 'Beer Chang' was about 10% and quite speedy as well).

the best is their redbull - it comes in a little medicine bottle and tastes like calpol....great for when we had a bus to catch at 4am or something - just kneck a bottle of that when you woke up and you were running around like a madman with no hope of sleeping.

and if you wanted some billy just walk into a chemist and tell them the thai diet isn't agreeing with you, and they hand over diet pills that are just speed in a capsule..

a funny, funny country....
