I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that this thread doubles as the "hey, post here when you're drunk!" thread.  I mean, I could go back and read through the thread a little but, y'know... effort.

That said, I have three Mike's Hard Lemonades in me - a 50% increase in inebriative fluidity! - and I am well and highly impaired (an interesting side effect of my being remarkably underweight and too poor to maintain a well-stocked store of spirits).  Not so impaired that it has any sort of detrimental effect on my typing (or my extravagant loquaciousness; indeed, if anything, it only exacerbates it to levels unseen to a more lucid mind) or on my self-delusion of me being one interesting motherfucker, though the former could merely be a side effect of playing FPSes that my computer can only run at frame rates which would reduce lesser men to vomiting and migraines.  Typing with self-inflicted lag, if you will.

Another interesting point seems to be that I am, in fact, a happy drunk.  Either that, I was in a good mood prior to inebriation, or I am an angry and/or sad drunk and, when compounded with my normal levels of ire and/or melancholy, it merely wraps around to the extreme end.  Certainly nothing worth maintaining over the long term - indeed, I seem to be at my best when my rage is focused upon something - but interesting to note nonetheless.

After some contemplation I feel the need to question why, precisely, one always believes that one's state of impairment is a matter which requires deep public scrutiny.  Perhaps, after the destruction of the ego barriers that inebriation provides, selflessness is the first thing to be cast aside.

On a more personal note, I regret that there's no women to grope.  On second thought, no, I don't; doing so would be unseemly and ungentlemanly.  But I suppose I could ask first; even if one is a lech there's no cost involved in being polite about it.

...

I also appear to be a chatty drunk.  Now observe as I return in several hours' time and immediately regret what I hath inscribed upon the vast expanse of the Internet.

This was the best new year's day ever.  I'm sure I won't be thinking this in the morning.

It wasn't so much that I drank too much beer as that I didn't drink enough water.

For most people, waking up with a splitting headache is called a hangover.  For me, it's called waking up.

Honestly, I think the worst part was waking up every two hours with a dry mouth.  Although I seem to be waking up every two hours normally these days, which is great when you're trying to record a long string of movies on TV but can't afford a TiVo.  When you're trying to get some sleep, though?  Not so much.

:tldr:

Holy shit, I'm a total ponce when I'm drunk.  More so than usual, even.

I got some sort of eye infection going and decided to stop drinking anything but water in case alcohol or caffeine makes it worse. Ho hum.

Alcohol kills bacteria.

Drop some whiskey into your tear ducts.

So I had a New Year's party last night, seeing as how I'm back in Montreal.

This is the first time my natural hangover resistance has failed me. Urrgh. :sadpanda:

I ran the gamut. Beer, vodka, jello vodka (lawl girls), Sambuca, beer... I think the kicker was a drink my large Lebanese friend made me, which he dubbed the "Irish New Year". It was composed of 75% Sambuca, 10% Bailey's, 15% Vodka, and all pain. :facepalm:

Dogfish Head,
Kind of amazing brewery.
Tasted a few sips of their World Wide Stout. Wow.

dogfish head is an amazing brewery with an annoying habit of trying to make beer too strong.  their barleywine goes beyond awful and their highest content (120minute) ipa is like taking a shot with every sip.

i still love their 60 and 90minute ipas, and they have the second best pumpkin seasonal i've ever had.

You know, I don't drink, but some of the beers at Volo in downtown Toronto could convince me. In particular, there was a quite palatable black cherry beer. My friends thought it was too bitter.

...I would say being strong is sort of the POINT of Dogfish Head, but yeah, it does tend to limit how much you can drink at a time.

i was under the impression they were going for "good beer" not "liquor-tasting garbage that will get you drunk".  high grav is not a problem, but it needs to taste decent if you want to get any props as a good beer/brewery.  that's why only their lower abv beers are really worthwhile.  unlike some strong beers, dogfish can't seem to remove the alcohol taste from their stronger booze.

I hate love to be a prick, but isn't that the point of an IPA? Isn't Dogfish Head's claim to fame unusually potent examples of whatever they brew? I'm not well-versed in expensive beer drinking, and couldn't claim to be an expert.
