Got your attention? Good. I, Sangamon Taylor, hereby invite all and sundry, etc.

Saturday night -- that's the night after tonight, for anyone unfamiliar with how we count the revolutions of this planet.

If I owe you one, you know who you are. Otherwise, bring something to trade -- information or matériel.

Room M90, doors open when they feel like it.

Lowered inhibitions, hmm? This sounds interesting. How much does a human need to take before it has an effect?

[notachick.livejournal.com]

It depends on the person and the type of alcohol, I think.

I can't have much at all, but my friend can have almost five bottles by himself before he starts going.

Are there any ill effects?

[notachick.livejournal.com]

If you drink too much? Certainly. I've seen people sick for a day or two after consuming far too much alcohol.

They're really funny to watch though.

So... are there any indications of how much one can drink before one gets sick, or do you just have to do it and find out?

[notachick.livejournal.com]

Well, someone who's larger should be able to hold a bit more than someone who is slight of frame. But the does not necessarily hold true for everyone. Some very small people can drink a lot, while others can't have more than a few cups before they fall asleep.

I'm sorry to say that you'd have to find out for yourself. Do be sure to take someone with you, however, to ensure that you don't get yourself sick by overdoing it. Dying after a night of drinking is highly unpleasant.

You can die from drinking B E E R?

[notachick.livejournal.com]

Only if you drink far too much of it in a short period of time.

At least, I think that's what killed them. All I know is that they had a lot to drink and the next morning they didn't wake up.

-Julian Ikeda

[wantsyourzex.livejournal.com]

Hmm. And you can't tell how much is too much until it kills you?

[toxicspiderman]

Only if you ignore the signs of alcohol poisoning. Drink at a normal rate, and stop if you feel signs of:

1. Nausea
2. Vertigo
3. Inability to stand
4. Desire to find the nearest person and burst out sobbing.

The last won't cause direct injury, but that depends on who the nearest person is.
