FabSwingers.com forum: What's your limit?!

Off the grid

Apparently when I drink around a pint and a half of lager (ok almost 2 pints) I get really d*unk!

I did this investigative science experiment on a first social meet last night. Oops.

It's weird because on a weekend I can drink alcopops and sambuka shots all night. And err... get d*unk. Oh ok. But it does take me longer. Maybe I space them out more?

Does lager get you pissed quicker?

What's your drinking limit where you think "I've had enough now" (or in my case "Oops, a tiny bit too much")?

4 pints. I'm cool.

Spirits, I can drink all night.

Wine I can drink a bottle. but with all of them the proof is the morning after.

The amount alcohol effects you is dependent on much more than the alcohol

I wouldn't drink lager... unless I was somewhere sunny; with a beach...

Avoid lager... real women drink ale!

I rarely drink so have a low tolerance for alcohol.

A couple of small glasses (125ml) of wine and I feel tipsy.

Maybe avoid anything with bubbles in it ?

Whether it's an urban myth or not, allegedly bubbles help the alcohol get into your blood stream faster

For the record, I didn't intend to. (And it wasn't falling over d*unk - just being quite amused by everything d*unk.)

I've d*unk the same alcohol for so long now that I didn't realise switching to something else could have wildly different effects?

My annual consumption of alcohol is about 8 units, so even one has an effect.

Depending on alcohol content etc two points may well equate for alcopops and a shot. You need to bear in mind the size of glass beer is usually d*unk from. That said, some people do seem to get more d*unk on certain things for some reason

There and to the left a bit

It could depend on how much you'd eaten beforehand, how quickly you drank them and the strength of the lager..there are some pretty potent ones available these days that you'd not necessarily realise their strength until they "hit" you

Depends on what I am drinking.

If it is ales 5 or 6 pints, if it is Belgium beers not as much.

If I mixed my drinks considerably quicker.

Actually would depend on how im feeling..if im tired or uninterested a few pints. However if the company and chat is good quite a few more . Spirits had less of an effect on me......I think lol.

Here occasionally, but mostly somewhere else

One pint is fine, two is OK, any more risks unpleasantness.

Spirits are the way forward. I talk unintelligible nonsense, but am in no danger of falling down, hurling, or having much of a hangover.

It's usually the doorstaff asking us to leave.... that's usually the indicator that I may have d*unk a little to much, doesn't happen very often as I'm not a party animal.

Last time I went out was a few weeks ago on a bit of an army reunion in notts at the Oktoberfest, 6 2pint steins later and we were all pretty mashed,

Then walking into town through the student world we gate crashed a few open door parties, most of the girls thought it was funny not the young lads though

I rarely drink so I'm a total lightweight. Wine especially, 1 glass I'm in the relaxed zone, 2 I'm giggly and know the next one should be a soft drink, 3 and I'm being silly and can't walk in a straight line, 4 probably would send me to sleep.....or a&e

I'm remembering the bad effects cider had on me when I was at uni. That's a memory I had blocked out for a while!

It seems random that different drinks seem to have different effects on different people.

Apparently there's a % of people who can't effectively metabolise alcohol because they don't carry the gene that's needed to do it. I think it's carried in the Chinese population?

I worked with a girl who had that, and she was trolled after a sip of wine on a leaving do. Very cheap night out! lol

3 pints of beer and I'm anybodys.

10 vodka and s and I'm questioning whether it's watered-down.

I start to sound a bit d*unk after 2 pints, even though I feel fine. It almost feels like it gives me a fat tongue!?! After that I have to go onto vodka, as drinking lager all night gets me hammered!

I don't drink a lot these days, so now when I do, I get pissed pretty quickly. On Saturday I had 2 pints and then 2 bottles of wine with another person (so 1 bottle of wine) and I was absolutely slaughtered.

Lager gets me d*unk a lot quicker than spirits and glasses of Lager get me d*unk quicker than if I drink from bottles.

I can drink gin all night and still go home feeling relatively sober, 3 halves of Lager and I need a lie down!
