munoz Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 The festive period always reaffirms this for me. I used to think this wasn't possible, I was wrong. Its maybe I just dont get the opportunity in the normal working week to test this. Maybe I am half cut. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's probably more of a case that the earlier consumed alcohol has had time to work it's way out of your system. As people tend to slow their consumption as time passes it is more likely that you are just less drunk than you were, and not actually sober. People also tend to eat after drinking for a while which will "absorb" some of the alcohol you consume around the same time and so less (of your lower consumption) will make it into the bloodstream, again making you "less drunk". Not a scientific explanation, just a layman's one.But enjoy yourself anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course I wasn't actually sober but it certainly felt like it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Only the people in the shitty estate next to our nice estate drank that. They also had a glue sniffing problem. Even at 10 years old I remember thinking "What the hell is wrong with those people?" To this day I can remember the advice from my mum - "Stay away from them bampots doon the road". Wise advice which I live by to this day. Edited December 27, 2020 by oaksoft 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doakes Posted February 11 Report Share Posted February 11 Pretty sure I did this daily over the course of 2 weeks when I was around 19/20 on holiday in magaluf Of course I wasn’t actually sober, but felt more sober than drunk those were the days 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
