        For some reason Irish and Tennessee whisky I can't tolerate anymore but can hammer Bourbon or Canadian whisky. 10-12 shots throughout the day gets it done. Always take a shot of water after every shot and take a big swig of pickle juice before bed 👍

          I quit drinking few weeks ago. My place is cleanest it’s ever been and I’m gambling better than I have. I do miss it though but the hangovers were getting bad. I’m 36. I’ll probably resume when the pool opens.

                                  Don't get hangovers. Never have. Maybe it's cause i rarely stop drinking.

                                        I stopped drinking the day I reached 30. One of my better decisions of this lifetime. Not missed at all.

                                            My belief is If you're an alcoholic, going to beer from hard liquor will only mean you drink more often. My experience.

                                              It's all about the buzz or numbness or pick a work....alcoholism doesn't care the brand or type.

                                                The opposite for me I can't do beer anymore I don't know why always feel like shit and I get crazy headaches, especially from miller. Only drink a few glasses of JD or Crown on rocks until I get a good buzz. This happened around 28-30 makes no sense.

                                                  I am the same way just drink Crown Royal black or bourbon. I think this is just nature's way. How many people in their 20's do you see drinking glasses of whiskey and how many people 40+ do you see drinking a case of beer?

                                                    If I drink more than 2 glasses of red wine I feel like I’m going to die the next day.

                                                    Feel way better the next day when I drink bourbon instead of beer or wine.

                                                      Wine is for women going through menopause and eurotrash. Whiskey, bourbon, and scotch is for men. Drink accordingly.

                                                        Comfortably numb, sounds like fun.

                                                              Slow your roll...
                                                              Try this mixed with Ginger Ale. Or even better with lemonade.
