So what kind of drinkers are some of you?

Just got curious about this because tonight I've started to notice something pretty odd...

I have two groups of friends I usually hang out with. Some old work friends and the usual old crowd from school. My work group is mainly into the typical social drinking, beerpong, with maybe someone doing a shot of something here and there, while the other group is all about shots, mixing stuff, making crazy things like Jello shots (had some of this tonight with Captain Morgan's, oh man ... this stuff is dangerous. Tasted like pure ... Jello?!) and they just aren't really beer drinkers.

... anyways it seems like I get more drunk with the group that just sticks to normal beer. I'm not sure if it's just me going through those cups so fast, being horrible at beerpong, or something, but whenever I go downtown to my friends that are all about the shots and whatnot, my drunkness doesn't last nearly as long. We usually keep it fairly consistent too with stuff, so it just seems odd that I seem to constantly find myself getting more drunk off beer rather than straight up alcohol.

Maybe beer can hit people differently? I have no idea.

So with that out the way, I guess we can talk beer and stuff. I had some Guiness tonight, that's ... like a whole new world compared to regular [piss] beer that I'm used too. I think I'm a middle grade kind of guy, when it comes to the piss stuff I seem to favor Coors, but something I'd actually drink with a meal or something would be Boulevard Wheat. I might warm up to thicker beer in time though. I like the taste of the thickness at first, it's almost like milk, but then it quickly hits you, lol.

My adventure hasn't even begun when it comes to straight alcohol. All I really know right now is that I pretty much love rum, any kind, any brand almost, mixed with pretty much anything. Vodka is alright. A friend of mine showed me this UV Blue stuff, oh man ... more dangerous stuff that just tastes like candy, very awesome. I'm not too big on wine. Whiskey sounds crazy but I'd like to try it and I'm interested in trying some kind of brandy someday.

Mood wise, I simply like to drink just to get drunk. Simply put I guess I'm just one that enjoys being drunk. It's calming, takes away the stress, gets me more out there and open with people, etc, it's just fun. I can get emotional and raging about stuff, but nothing violent ... this has only happened twice so far. If something really bad happens or pisses me off it can kind of ruin the night. I remember two weeks ago this older chick at my ex-bosses house said she'd kick my ass, I have no idea why... I don't think she understood I knew and was good friends with most of the respected people there for a good 2-3 years. For the rest of the night I just could not get over that.

I'm kind of like a kid when I'm drunk, but who cares? My philosophy is that I just drink to have FUN! Drama is lame.

Only been drunk once by myself at home, not long ago either since I just turned 21, just kind of figured what the hell and had some shots one night. Only lasted for like an hour though, but it was interesting to play games and stuff. , don't think I'd care to do this too often unless I have a horrible day or something.

But yeah, I just drink with friends or whatnot probably once a week.

So yeah, being 21 is nice and all.

I'll be 21 in a couple of months. Anyway... I'm not a beer drinker. I used to be a shot drinker until I did it too much I exploded with hurl. XD

I'm now a mixed drink, liquer, and I drink wine coolers and what not. Yeah I admit... I'm a wuss. lol

It's weird. Before I was 21 I could drink ANYTHING at mass amounts and be fine. Then when I turned 21 my constitution went out the window. Now my stomach hurts after a while. I don't feel like throwing up, just my stomach aches like I'm drinking without having anything in it.

Anyway, when I was a huge drinker, my usual drink of choice was a Jager bomb. Glass of Red Bull with a shot of Jager dropped in. Makes the Jagermeister hit you harder.

I haven't had one of those lately, but it seems I've mostly been drinking beer (getting giant schooners of it here and there or hitting the Oktoberfests last month).

Being a kid when you're drunk is fine. I notice when I get a bit tipsy I'm happy and uninhibited. Several times I've had some amazing conversations with people while I was hitting the rum pretty hard.

I'll taste different beers (my husband and his friend are like connoisseurs of beer), and so far my favorites are Wicked Pete's Strawberry Blonde (tastes like strawberries) and Sam Adams Cherry Wheat (cherries) yumm... Sam Adams is probably my favorite kind of beer, though I can also drink a Coors. Not a fan of Budweiser/Bud Light or Corona or Miller or anything.

I prefer mixed drinks and shots. My favorite type of liquor is vodka (Russian Standard). I get more drunk off of liquor than beer, but mostly because I can stand to drink that much beer; it just tastes bad after more than 2. I have a friend who gets massively drunk off of one beer... but can do shots like it's going out of style and not get very drunk.

My favorite shot is probably an Irish car bomb... which is a shot half irish cream and half Jameson (Irish whiskey) dropped into a glass of Guinness and chugged. Tastes really good... I can't drink whiskey straight anymore after a stunt where 3 of us split a bottle of Bulleit Bourbon... 90 proof. 7 shots. Not good. Didn't throw up though (almost did and prolly would have felt better if I did) and magically didn't wake up hung over. Actually, I've never had a hang over no matter how much I've had to drink. yay Irish/German genes!!

I have always preferred liquor over beer. Especially if I'm going out to a club or bar. It gives me a better drunk. Beer makes me feel slovenly. Don't get me wrong, I'll drink beer at parties or at home whilst playing Mario Kart. But it's never my first choice.


I really like Jager. Especially Jager bombs. Jager is one of the few liquors that I can drink without chaser. But chasing with redbull makes it taste so much better.

If I'm buying a drink at the bar it's usually a Tokyo Ice Tea. Which apparently is only native on the West Coast. It's a Long Island Ice Tea with Midori instead of coke. Midori is a melon liquor....so it's stronger then a normal Long Island. It doesn't taste all that wonderful, but it's bearable and very potent.

Guinness or Becks for beer, but I prefer rum or whiskey if I wanna get drunk. I usually barely get through a pint and a half of beer before I can't stand the flavor any longer.
