View Full Version : What's Your "Demon" Booze?
Something I was talking about with JerseyRich, Hammersavage, and CofyCrakCocaine the other night on our way to Mooch and Pixie's bash - everyone seems to have that ONE type of alcohol that turns them into a raging asshole, even if they're normally a happy, fun-loving drunk.
For some people it's vodka; others, tequila. Or maybe something else.
Mine was Wild Turkey back in the day. I could drink any other kind of whiskey and be fine, but for some reason when I was downing Turkey I became nasty as cat shit. It got so bad my buddies had to tell me they didn't like being around me if I was going to be drinking it.
I haven't touched it in years.
What's the one drink that turns your Dr. Jeckyll into a Mr. Hyde?

Tequila. Its a love hate relationship. Good tequila is sooo great, but I get so fucking horny when I'm drunk off of it. Who knows what I have banged because of it.
Tres Generaciones will get me in the sack with anybody.

Tequila gets me howling at the moon. I think there are a lot of us out there. When I lived in Seattle, I had a friend who would travel up from Mexico pretty often. He would bring cases of tequila and those parties were insane. Lots of break-ups, arguments, and irresponsible sex. He would also have parties with kegs and no cases of tequila. They were never as crazy. I wonder if anyone has done a study on this.

im not sure any particular booze is really my demon. i do know that when i used to combine tequilla with a certain white powder substance i would turn into a total asshole. so it might not be simply tequilla but rather tequilla and coke combining forces to turn me into such a douche. i learned my lesson fairly quick though. other then that though I handle my booze fairly well no matter the copious amount of drink I consume.

true, but just because it smells like rotting mule piss (and doesn't taste any better). it's the one liquor that i, quite literally, can't stomach.
there's no liquor that turns me into a maniac, but vodka is amnesia-juice for me. even if i don't get drunk off it, i can barely remember a thing the next day any time i touch the stuff.

I don't know what it is that they put in OE but it is easily the most violence provoking drink. Colt 45, Stides make you more sick but OE does something weird. If we're all on OE then two rappin forte's later somebody's gonna break something and it's 50/50 whether it will happen right in front of a cop. Never fails, a drunk tank is in the cards for at least one of us.
As a family fun science experiment, give one to a girl. Every chick I had would go through the OE test. A: Can they handle the taste B: see if they can finish a whole 40 and C: see if they don't call someone else out and make problems D: see if they turn on you. If they go ABC , you gotta good girl. Even if they go D on you it they don't make em a bad person, be careful, it just catches up with you in an instant. Doesn't mean that's who they really are.

Tequila is similar but not the same. Even though there's 5 times more alcohol in it there's something about OE at 8% alcohol that slowly turns you just right. Maybe it's the unfiltered Lake Michigan water I don't know.
I had OE's in NY and I think they're only 5-6% alcohol, it's not printed on the label, but they're only a buck or 2 so who cares, buy 3.

Is it legal to get primates drunk? In a lab give them one typa alcohol and analyze the situation. Then let them go 2 days to get over the hangover and introduce to them Alcohol B, and repeat until they've gone through every brand. Also have different fast foods and find out which is the most popular at 2am.

I know this is wikipedia but eh
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chav
Chav, Chava or Charva is a slang derogatory term applied to certain young people in the United Kingdom. The stereotypical image of a chav is a white aggressive teen or young adult, of working class background, who wears branded sports and casual clothing (baseball caps are also common) who often fights and engages in petty criminality and are often assumed to be unemployed or in a low paid job.

When I was in college, I got paid to be part of an alcohol study. They gave me what tasted exactly like gin and tonics and told me that it was alcohol. Then they ran me through some tests, like word association games and basic math. I didn't feel a thing from the 'gin and tonics'. Then after the answering the questions they told me they had lied and there was no alcohol in the drinks. They said about 40% of their guinea pigs did act drunk from the power of suggestion, some even slurring their words, stumbling around, etc.
This was in the psychology department and they had a full fake bar. The researchers claim that they do run studies in which they give students alcohol.

Gin though... goddamn when spring rolled in and you had a couple tumblers, bag of ice, tonic and limes... good times.
If jager is making you sick, you're not drinking enough of it.
I can't recall behaving differently if I drank a certain liquor. Then again, I didn't mix it up too much.
Oh sweet bourbon, the good times we had...

Tequila makes me so happy, Vodka makes me Ms. GrumpyPants.
Beer makes me hate life.
In college, when I would drink scotch it would give me a short fuse... as I got older, it turned me into a refined gentleman......or an alcoholic..
Any kind of hard liquer. If i stick to beer I'm happy as can be. If i drink hard stuff I want to fight just about anybody

all alcohol is the same. maybe one liquor will get more into you than another, but your body isn't going to react differently to different types. it's the equivalent of saying "if i have vodka and oj i'm cool, but if i mix vodka with cranberry i act like an animal." lunacy.

No, those are both vodka. There are different ingredients that go into each type of alcohol. I feel that its the mood that you go into when you drink specific things that makes the difference but I have seen different types of drunks on different kinds of booze in my friends and myself.

I agree that the amount of alcohol may be the same in each drink. (1 1/2 oz of 80 proof = 12 oz beer = 6oz wine etc) but the rate of absorption and the "feeling" can be different. This also varies with the carbonation of the beverage too.
A 6 glasses of champagne buzz feels a lot different from a six shot of whiskey buzz to me.

i know they were both vodka, that was my point. the other stuff is incidental to the alcohol, but you do make a good point about going into it with a different attitude. the only difference is psychological (or, if one gets more alcohol into your system, as i mentioned earlier).
but, where you were saying "different ingredients" go into each alcohol, i was pointing out the similarity to those added to the base spirit during processing, or adding mixers after the fact. they don't have any impact on you, it's just the alcohol that affects your body.

i agree the champagne can have a different affect on your head, but i was more bothered by folks comparing one 80 proof whiskey to another. saying they have a different affect is purely mentally unstable.
