Anybody else a lightweight?

[cool greyyy]

3 shots or 4 mixed drinks and Im done for the night. The taste turns me away from becoming a hard drinker. But I 

 on the regular.

 

[gconquer]

I'd rather be a lightweight. my bar tab wouldn't be so high all the time

 

[megatron]

I wish i was a lightweight, it costs less money. Takes forever to get drunk. Had to down almost a whole 5th of hennessy last time before i needed assistance standing up

 

[thedeek]

You're a lucky one.

When you're at a point where it takes 5-7 ten dollar shots to put a dent in you, feels economically bad man.

 

[j2legend]

I'm a lightweight. It's embarrassing. I used to hold it solid during college and earlier 20s, but since I started working out and eating healthy and cutting out crap, my tolerance isn't so high.
My friends can DRINK, but me after 3 or 4 shots, I turn beet red and people are like "you drunk already?!" My bar tabs aren't so high, but then I can't keep up and if I'm forced to, I end up passing out or getting black-out drunk.

 

[servechilled81]

Yes, when I was in hs/college I could drink, then I stopped completely
now only 1 drink (especially beer) and I get a headache, and start getting hot
I probably have a drink once or twice a year now

 

[benssick]

Na,i control myself and i go ham with the drinks 

Real talk

 

[Junok]

I am...

 

[solefood229]

I haven't smoked in 7 years

This, without pregaming with about a quarter of a liter before I go out I have to end up spending at least $100 to get the sort of buzz I like.

 

[mangudai954]

Oh yea. I like it though, less money.

 

[ravagebx]

Nah, I'm bout this drinking life.

 

[luong1209]

I get a good buzz after 3-4 shots. I enjoy my night like that though.

6+ And I'm off the walls, which leads to being dizzy, which leads to throwing up.

 

[gllahone84]

I never could drink man...and I don't know what moderation is. That's why I haven't touched alcohol in months....plus I always feel down for a few days after I drink.

 

[elnino4530]

I don't know how/why this is happening but I've been a tank the last 2 months. Pre-drinking and still knockin down drinks all night at the bar.

My vitamin game and z V8 before bed has ensured hangovers don't exist as well

One time in Vegas I overslept and didn't have time to pregame. Ended up dropping like 150 at Marquee just to get nice

 

[pookieman]

2 beers and I'm Nice....3 and I'm good...4th - it's a wrap....I drank about 10-13 beers yesterday tailgating at a bills game ....I was drunk from 11 to about 1130, passing out during the game and on the 2hr ride back home

 

[gllahone84]

Damn you need to spend a $150 to get right? You dudes are drinkers for real.

Well it was in Vegas where a red bull vodka can run you $17. Probably had 5-6 of those and 1-2 shots and with tips it's around ~150.

But yeah I do have a high tolerance. <5 drinks ain't touching me. I'm good at 6-8 and f'ed up at 10+

 

[rex ryan]

im a firm believer in predrinking, but i wish i had a lower tolerance level.

It can really suck when you dont know your limit.

 

[joe camel smooth]

im def not a lightweight, even for my weight

even when i first started drinking it took more than most

funny because i have some friends who are big and are complete lightweights......like sloppy after 6 or 7 drinks its hilarious. ill have had twice as much and i'm helping them walk
also when i drink i tend to have red bull and/or blow which def helps you drink more and feel more sober than you are

 

[Clyde Frog]

Being a lightweight is cheaper but not being one gives you a better feeling drunk. My tolerance has gone way up since high school and im happy cause i'd rather get drunk allll night, be loud, sociable, and not give a $%@*, over having a few mixed drinks, seeing double, getting head spins, and puking all night. 

 

[GTA 809]

i was an undiagnosed alcoholic in my early 20s. Life happened, and now I am a proud lightweight. I usually pre game than have 2-3 hard liquor drinks, than a beer to end the night.
