Props to Subby for not using the played-out "vodak" in the headline.

To me, though, the most evil of all liquors has to be tequila. I've done the stupidest shiat, and had the worst hangovers the next morning, after drinking it. It's gotten me stupid drunk in ways that other liquors have not. It's the one booze I have completely sworn off forever.

Ha! I drank a bunch of peppermint schnapps, and had a hangover before I even got off the bar stool!
/Never again!

Schnapps is the farkin' worst. My best friend's dad tried drinking me under the table with schnapps shots at his bachelor party. I threw up so hard in their driveway that the pavement still has a stain a year later. That man is the goddamn devil.

FTA: "The researchers recruited 95 healthy young adults, ages 21 to 33, and gave them caffeine-free cola mixed with bourbon, vodka or tonic water. The drinking ended when participants' breath-alcohol concentrations hit an average of 0.11, well over the legal intoxication limit."


How much tonic water would be needed to hit .11? ...and I'd imagine that test group wouldn't sleep well either since they'd be peeing all night.

Tequilla, that is all.

Most (good quality) hard liquors are okay when it comes to hangovers. For me personally, its sugar in the drinks that really cause hangovers, whether its a mixed drink, wine, schnaps, Kaluha, anything sweet.

Chilled vodak with a couple rocks, a lemon twist or slice, is best.

I spit on vodak, the vodak industry, and all booze other than Bourbon.

*tooui*

Bourbon rules!

I second tequila. Never going anywhere near that stuff again. Or Mexico, for that matter.

I once drank a third of a bottle of tequila in a fairly short sitting. Was not unusually drunk nor hungover the next morning.

I have to agree that Schnapps is the farking worst. I live in Germany and once a month the wife and I take a trip to Thuringia to see her parents. My in-laws are farking incredible drinkers. Never fails that after many beers they pull out the schnapps and it all goes downhill from there. The night usually ends in a haze and the hangover is almost unbearable. Of course at 11:00 AM Sunday it's time for the morning beer. Ugh....I'll be there for three days for Christmas. My liver is crying already.

I seem to recall that, yes. I couldn't remember the original artist.
I like Thorogood's version though :)

correction: King Cobras plus pain pills gives the worst hangover.

I was going to have a few beers and watch some football, but felt so bad, I just watched football. Crazy, I know.

Tequila is well known to be the ball sweat of Satan.

Well respected people will drink it and wake up to overweight pre-op transexuals making them breakfast.

A few days ago I posted a comment on this subject but I've drank enough bowmans vodak to forget whatever I posted and now I'm posting this.

I will stipulate that while my experiences with schnapps have left me feeling absolutely the worst, the only time (to the best of my recollection) that I went "crazy drunk" was on tequila.

It's fairly common knowledge to us drunks that dark liquors have more hangover potential. The shiat that makes then dark (sugar, flavorings, colorings, etc.) is the shiat that gives you a hangover.

I used to not be able to stand tequila at all. Hated it. I drank Cuervo 1800 silver and I havent looked back. Best liquor I ever hand as far as smooth, easy to drink, no hangover...
 
2009-12-21 04:30:42 AM
Why would they mix (caffeine free) cola with the booze?

Sounds like they used cheap crappy alcohol for the test.

You have a point there, the worst... as in pain might well be schnapps. The worst... as in regrets may well be Tequila.

If you have Thorogood's live album, you'll hear that he mentions John Lee Hooker during the song. And Hooker's original is really good. That clip I grabbed is not the version I know. I like Thorogood a lot; it was his reference to John Lee Hooker that turned me on to all the old blues artists. I even have a copy of the blues tune "Gallows Pole" that Led Zeppelin covered. Zeppelin did a much better job.

And yes, stay away from tequila! Too hard to spell,for one thing. That's why I am on to rum.

No, I'd agree with burbon being the worst hangover.

Burbon is a true drinker's way of punching himself in the face.
