Getting Hammered page 4

[Gilleh]

Because most young people that go out want to actually drink. Most of us aren't going to drink 1-2 glasses of red wine and call it a night. Besides, red wine is the world's worst hangover. We're going to pound 6-10 drinks made of vodka, tequila or some other high alcohol spirit. It's never healthy to do that, but I'm going to do it anyway. Tonight, in fact.

Wine gives me worst head aches too.
I agree with you completely, what's the point of having a life without getting shitfaced every now and then?
My best nights had vodka in them.. I could never give up on those experiences for the sake of health.

It's not paleo, it's not primal. I can dress it up however I like as medicine, sensible indulgence, whatever ... it's not. It's booze and there is a toll to be paid.
Drink to enhance an experience, a meeting of friends, a quiet moment. I see fermentation as nature's gift to us, distillation our creativity. Eat good food, drink good drink (otherwise, water), love living.

Nicely put.
