Why would you want to handle a sambuca shot? It tastes of ass.
Why would you want to handle a sambuca shot? It tastes of ass.
All I know about sambuca is that they told McLovin' to not smurf up the drinks and get it again in Superbad.
Sambuca is nasty, nasty stuff. Compared to tequila it is basically devil juice. Tequila slammers (lemon and salt) are the best tasting shots, you just have to be ready for the kick. Because it all comes at once.
SERIOUSLY?! Sambuca is horrible, that stuff burns. I just got into the habit of always ordering shots of sambuca when I'm out xD I've had a vodka shot before, took a lot of courage to down that.
Have you already tried tequila & clamato !? I'm not a big fan, but it tastes quite good when you're tired of lemon and saltOriginally Posted by eternal essence
On the topic of the sub conversation in this thread about drinking to excess and puking/forgetting what actually happened?
I have drunk to excess too many times to care or remember, I've puked, I've passed out, on a couple of occassions I got hospitalized. Last time this happened, I drank pretty much my own bodyweight in alcohol and at the same point in time was on anti-histamine tablets what actually (as we later found out) contained a reasonable dose of Codeine to help with headaches caused by hayfever. I'd been double and triple dosing on these tablets due to them not "working" for me. Codeine and Alcohol do not mix well. I remember what happened that evening including the flirting with the female paramedic when the ambulance came (my friends called it because I passed out and proceeded to smash the back of my skull on the edge of Laura Ashley's doorstep, concussion + unwittingly spiking myself and overdosing on codeine to begin with way to go Steve!) I also made myself legendary in the way I came to again in hospital got changed, went to the loo when discharged and noticed my hair was a mess due to them checking my tender concussed skull for fractures. I immediately whipped the hair gel out of my bag and fixed my hair, this caused the doctor and my friends to worry I had collapsed again in the loo. I emerge just as they're about to bust the door in and looked at them like they were mad and said "but it would never have done!" I made the nurses at the nurses station laugh themselves silly with that one.
I only have one night where I have no recollection of my journey home and that is where I lived in East London and I went to the HMV christmas party. I got home like 4am and was immediately passed out, woke up in the morning and according to the ex I had made no sense at all, was bruised and had a cut on my face. From the bruises we deduced I must have had a fight but who with or what about we never figured out all we know is I got the last train to Canning Town at around 1:20am and I got off at the right stop, beyond this I never pieced together why it took me almost 2 hours to get from Canning Town Station to the flat, it's was normally a 10 minute walk to put that in perspective.
The rest of the times I get drunk I always remember everything so I know what happened and when (or roughly what order things happened in and can piece together the time line) if I don't recall everything straight off the bat next morning I do remember it within a couple of days. This has caused me to go "oh smurf...did I really do that? Damn!" in the past.
You guy are crazy. Straight tequila is awesome.

why are you too drunk to not be able to spell after just 3 bottles of wine?
/me had almost an entire bottle of 40% vodka this saturday, and a few beers.
Oh, no blackouts or headaches either
It was a great night.

I totally agree with you. I've only thrown up once from drinking and I didn't like it at all. And I also forgot like 80% of what happened that night.
When we dance, it looks just like Fire.
When we sing, it sounds the same tone.
Different drinks affect people in different ways, wine is particulary potent at getting people fething drunk and leaving them wondering why the hell they thought 3 bottles would be a good idea next morning (especially red wines)
I normally drink beer and can sit there pretty much all night and drink beer, I'll be tons over the legal limits for driving but will feel at worst tipsy (unless I drink THAT much that I can get drunk, but normally this requires mixing) with no hangover next morning (though scuzzy mouth feeling is perhaps worse than the hangover) I also drink Jack Daniels a hell of a lot of the time, I can drink a full 75cl bottle of JD and not feel too drunk (over the course of an afternoon mixed generally with cola) however if I drink Sambuca black I will end up in a very messy state generally without drinking more than a third of what I normally drink.
Ethanol is ethanol. That's what's affecting you, anything else is just placebo.
What does matter though, is how much water there is in you, which means big guys get less affected than small guys.
And a lot of that "awful hungover feeling" is actually heavy dehydration combined with too little sleep and lack of energy. When I wake up after partying, I usually notice I'm still a bit drunk, but I never get that awful feeling if I drink enough water through the night.

Remember kiddies, rubbing alcohol is methanol, which is not drinking alcohol as well as it is quite toxic. Drink too much and first you will go blind. Then you will die.
Not always.
But it's pretty common knowledge to not drink methanol. A teaspoon could make you go blind.
However, the damage can be prevented if you consume large amounts of ethanol right away. Not recommended anyway.

I don't drink very often anymore, on account of the calories. There are easier, cheaper, and less fatty ways to temporarily retard your brain for an evening. Regardless, I don't typically visit EoFF while intoxicated.
Sambuca is OK.
My favorite thing to take shots of is Cap'n or Ice 101 (basically Peppermint Shnapps but high alcohol content).
I can't drink Blue Lagoons anymore after getting entirely too drunk on them and having my first bad hangover ever on them. Blue alcohol makes a little queasy now.
Fortunately, my hangovers don't consist of throwing up. I just have really bad tummyaches and other such things. My stomach and throat feel kind of raw.
