Hey, thanks for the advice.
However, I'm not into the one-night stand scene. My genitals are very healthy at the moment (not to mention parasite-free), and I'd like to keep them that way.
As for hangovers, I mean no offense but I think those little rhymes are hogwash. I've always been told, "Liquor before beer, you're in the clear. Beer before liquor, never been sicker." However, I've gotten sick from both. My little theory is, people say liquor before beer is better because beer has less alcohol. So when you're already soused from the hard stuff, throwing down a few more beers isn't going to knock you out. But if you get drunk on beer first and then start downing shot after shot, your judgement of "Have I had too many?" will be a bit off, thus you're more likely to get very sick.
I've never had a bad hangover, but I don't know how much that has to do with my metabolism. I heard that most of the symptoms of a hangover are due to dehydration, so after I've been drinking, I always chug a bunch of water before I go to bed. It makes sense since alcohol is a diuretic...
