Hello French friends. I am in south fence now. Is your Wine stronger than other?
I think I drank more than 1 bottle of and I feel dizzy but funny. Do I understand being French now?

Btw it's beautiful here wow
 
You are in France and are feeling woozy after a drink?

I hate to break it to you, but you are about to be taken.

Hope you have a friend with a particular set of skills...
 
Wine is the devil. I can drink 5 or 6 glasses of whisky, neat, and be no worse for the wear. But a glass of the red stuff and I'm already hot in the face.

It's still booze, ain't it? Of course you can still get drunk.

There's health benefits to drinking red wine. But it is alcohol. It's best to not overdo it.
 
Oh yeah. There is some strong wine (relatively) out there. Shit gives me a MASSIVE hangover though.


I just stick to Vodka these days.
 
I had an entire bottle of Cabernet Sauvignon last weekend and I didn't get drunk at all. like 5% intoxicated. I was fucking pissed.
I had margaritas in mexico which was much worse. Didn't get drunk, went straight into hangover, and then in the morning I was super constipated. Like it just evaporated the fluids in my body
 
Literally the drunkest I've ever been is on wine. Be careful lol. It hits much later than beer. If you feel drunk now then that means in a few hours you're fucked
 
Lol no shit.
But in my drinking days I used to see lot of american / british expats on the floor after 3-4 beers so yeah

Grape juice you had prior isn't wine. Welcome to the big leagues, kid.

the drunkest I've been was after downing almost a full glass of 80% Stroh Rum after already being drunk...

but Wine makes me throw up easily even tho I'm not nearly as drunk as I can usually tolerate. which is why I hate Wine now xD
 
The average bottle of wine, 750ml at 13% alcohol, is about the equivalent of 4-6 12oz beers at 5-6% and is like 4 stiff shots IIRC. But if you got a fortified wine it could have a much higher alcohol level and I find at least that the speed of ingestion matters a lot more at higher alc levels (takes me a lot longer to drink a six pack of lager than to do a few shots or drink a few glasses of wine). Food before obviously slows absorption.

So never fear, OP, if you aren't hiding under your bedaboit to be dragged away then maybe you just got a stronger type of wine.
 
Or maybe you were drinking a magnum :p

i went through a phase where i was into red wine. can't remember what brand it was. i got a good kick out it but it was too sweet for me and it made me sick. i'm good sticking to beers and the odd vodka/whisky.
 
Wine make me sleepy.

When i started having insomnia many years ago i thought it was smart getting drunk on red wine to sleep better...boy i was wrong.

Op sound like a clueless friend of my mom when she saw for the first time a chicken gordon bleu at 60 years old and her world was rocked after that day (true story)
 
Worked at biggest, poshest retail place here when I was younger.

Did all the wanky wine-tasting conventions in top hotels, the type where you 'spit-don't swallow' into a bucket.

A very posh area, hard work as moving crates from deliveries from Calais. From HUGE trucks.

Anyone from the UK would know it, 'Oddbins'.

They were cunts, so i'd accidently bin the top champange and collect them at night.

I could honestly make a thread about it alone with the celebrities (I won't). All very big ones, I'd be sued to fuck.

But I felt like an underpaid superstar as they all bought their grog there. Even had to do exams, got qualified. A mugs game. Don't think a level 'x' wine - taster would look good on a CV.

Yet I will say, some are wonderful to drink, as I did my homework (had to) and some are heaven in small portions. Not shit you buy just to get drunk.

As I said I won't name names but was a very affluent area, yet pay was shit.

I sure as fuck collected what I accidentally dumped after the shop closed. Ain't doxxing myself, just a decent bottle of wine ... it's special. Worth the money? Dunno I got them for free. ;)

GymWolf GymWolf Some of the wine in Sicily was on par with our expensive shit. Your supermarket stuff, I felt conned. Quit the job, was only in Tuscany I found some of them again. Was extremely annoyed.

Oddbins, I 'member that place. along with threshers

also the booze cruises to calais.
 
Wine can be upwards of 20 ABV.

Drinking a bottle of strong wine is like drinking half a bottle of standard vodka.

It's much easier to get drunk on wine than on beer, it's approx 12-14% alcohol content, 3 times more than beer.

Of course it's beautiful, it's France.

Bang one money my good man.

I just went back to 4 beers for a fiver. Total con job.

Also what I did learn is they sell the 15 bucks bottles for a fiver once expire date comes up. Shit doesn't go off, just a tip for anyone who didn't know.

That way they can write them off as they claim to have dumped them. (They never do) and the booze is fine. Regulations.

Girls with slutty outfits when I was sa young teen will fill there bags with it. Hooch or other alcopops. Shit was fine but sneaky way to offload to underage teens and write it off. Those companies didn't want returns so was a win/win. Hooch was one. They banned alcopops after a while.

Me (I never drank ... then) Yet they'd get fucked up and be riding each other in the bushes.

My mother stung me with a bag of rusted cans in a wardrobe (I'd keep them for them even though I never drank) got into serious shit for that.

I made up for that years later. Alcopops got banned. I was starting on the good stuff.

Cheap beer. ;)


Dunno why half my reply is in that quote and half not, maybe it'd because I'm half pished. :D

Wine sucks for me, anytime I drink it I get a headache, like that fucker is already working on the hangover before getting me drunk.

I always heard wine dehydrates a person more severely, ounce per ounce, than liquor or beer. Need to drink a glass of water for each glass of wine.

Old wives' tale? I don't know, but I do know that like you wine hangovers for me are straight up debilitating, while a whiskey hangover is typically a bad headache that's gone within a few hours of waking up.

It can change.

Why some people go from party animals to just needing a bump to get out of bed.

It's sad but true. Same as any drug.

A regular whiskey drinker ...

Good luck with that.

Don't believe me, ask a nurse. Plenty online.
