Eeeh, they blocked some human defense systems in order to exacerbate the negative effects. A round every other day or so is probably fine.

I get headaches after just one beer now so I was planning on giving up alcoholic drinks anyways.

Also, I prefer getting high over getting drunk any day.  :doge

I can finish a fifth of scotch and not get a hangover as long as I get 15 hours of sleep after. Why would I want to quit now?

well personally i don't like the taste of scientists from the UK and i prefer to be in control of my AMERICAN BODY at all times rather than under the jackboot influence of some probably homosexual limeys we kicked out back in 1776 ROCK FLAG AND EAGLE

Don't go too fast, or you'll pass out before you can finish the job.

a litre of water, a magnesium pill and a few panadol is my go to. add tramadol and a little valium before sleep if i have it. definitely not the sharpest the next day, but am generally good for a day of work after a pretty heavy night out w that regimen, though papers like this really just reaffirm that i need to start reconsidering my relationship w binge drinking.

Yeah I find sleep more of a hangover cure/prevention than even lots of water. Even drinking a lot of water the night before, I always need an extra 6 hour nap to be 100%.

My problem is if I get drunk, I can't sleep at all. I wake up every 20-30 minutes all night long. End up eventually having to nap after the hangover headaches have worn off.

I got a six of Not Your Father's Mountain Ale and pounded one when I got home yesterday. Sometimes the day sucks and ya wanna feel a little buzzy to counter it. :-[
