My son just told me he got invited to a party where there will be drinking. No biggie, he's level headed. I told him to stick to beer or wine coolers because too much hard liquor could kill him. Now I'm second guessing that. Could anyone ever drink so much beer/coolers that they would get alcohol poisoning? Is it possible?
I took my boyfriend to a party last night and he got alcohol poisoning. He's a decade younger than me, so I know that he has a fraction of my drinking experience, but I told him specifically NOT to drink Jack and to stick to beer. He vomited six times in my car (I don't know what it's going to do to my leather seats, but it smells like ass in there). I had to carry him from my car to the house... carry, not "assist with walking", but outright carry and/or drag his corpse to my home. The guy fell so many times, I'm surprised he's not in a hospital. The fucker made an ass out of himself in front of six of my co-workers. Somehow, he ended up with serious bruises all over his body, an ugly laceration on his rip cage, a nasty black eye, and a huge knot on his head. As I type, he's lying on the floor of my living room totally sick. I finally got him to drink some h.o.c. (hang over cure), which is finally staying down. ~String

A person can get alcohol poisoning from any alcoholic beverage. The likelihood of getting it diminishes as the proof goes down. So, in beer and wine coolers, it's far more difficult (I'd almost say impossible-- you'd have to REALLY be a lightweight and REALLY drink a shit load of beer... so much so, that you'd be pissing every five minutes). That said, I won't deny the possibility of it. ~String
Alchohol doesn't work until it gets into the blood, which is when people start feeling the effect. Some people have "good" blood, which doesn't easily allow the intake of foreign matter, thus I would think sickle celled individuals or people who generally fall sick easily would get drunk faster. However the biggest contributor to how well you can hold your liquor is experience. FYI drinking through your ass hole makes you drunk exponentialy faster, apparently the rectal area doesn't have defense mechanisms like the oral.
Awesome story, string. I went on a stag trip one time with a bunch of guys from the lab - the senior lab tech was getting married. One bar and one stripper bar later he was blasted. I got dropped off a block away from my place; they dumped him on the lawn in front of his building. Apparently he tried to climb up the wall; later he fell unconscious and vomited profusely on himself and everything else, then curled up in the sick. And that was where his bride-to-be found him at five AM. Ah, those were the days.
...uhh...I mean: Alcohol poisoning is bad. Don't do it. This has been a public service message from Geoff.
really? I thought it was because we aren't as stupid. wait, I mean, women are dumb with their hearts and pick the wrong guy over and over. Men are dumb with their bodies and don't go to doctors or do macho risky things.
