Am I the only one to notice that different alcoholic drinks produce different kinds of intoxication?
For instance, I tend to be mellow and friendly when I drink beer.

I get weepy and maudlin if I imbibe gin.

Tequila just makes me a combative asshole.

Scotch has an interesting two-tiered effect. At first, I get thoughtful, contemplative and deep. Too much, and I get worse than if I drink tequila.

Anyone else experience differences like this?

3. I experience that also.
I drink beer, wine and whiskey.

Whiskey does me in....I have to be really careful with it.

7. my moms fave song "Tequila makes her clothes fall off"

as or me

vodka: fearless
wine: can't keep a secret and kinda slutty
tequila: crazy for a bit, then asleep
beer: an intoxication I can control, somewhat
champagne: giggly

the only thing that makes my clothes fall off: valium, no other benzos. I found this out through a number of prescriptions

11. People say that, but it's all preconceptions of how we think we are supposed to behave...
... when we drink those drinks.

12. I've posted about this before....absolutely right
for some reason, I have trouble with rum, it just makes me silly and out of control. Gin and tonics I can drink till the sun comes down, but man do I pay for it in the morning...

I can drink scotch with no problem....whiskey like Jack Daniels makes me want to vomit, though

13. Hubby and I bought Boru vodka and it was the best drunk sex evah!
We woke tattered and bruised but it was a great night.

TMI?

I think before we fell into bed we fell out the front door.

:rofl:
