It's Thirsty Thursday m9, you can do much better.

Nothing, I drank a fifth of vodka last night.

>>6955219
I posted the thread at 6:35 pm, it's now 6:43 and I'm halfway gone through one.

I'll probably pick up some 24s later.

What the fuck is malt liquor?

>>6955210
>80oz beer

>>6955249

>>6955210
damn nigga, can i come over and hang out on your porch with you?

i'm more of a colt 45 or mickey's type of dude myself

a lot of people give these types of brews shit for being shitty and cheap but i love them fam

>Malt liquor is a North American term referring to a type of beer with high alcohol content. In legal statutes, the term often includes any alcoholic beverage with 5% or more alcohol by volume made with malted barley. In common parlance, however, it is used for high-alcohol beers (6–7% and more)

Basically it's an Amerilard fag name for "slightly strong beer".

>>6955287
Get outta here with your bumass eurotrash shit, drink your proseccos with your gay homies and fuck off before I wipe the floor with your face nigga

>>6955287
The appeal is to be strong and cheap, not just strong. Get your shit straight

>>6955311
>The appeal is to be strong and cheap

Like I said.

Vodka and Orange&Lime, no idea if that is an actual drink but it makes me feel less nauseous.

Amoretto and coke, but I'm just drunk (or buzzed, heavily buzzed). Not an alcoholic though, I like driving too much, and I'm really fucking poor.


>tfw a fucking lightweight

Side question, what's do you think the difference is between buzzed and drunk?

>>6955345
>Side question, what's do you think the difference is between buzzed and drunk?
Very fine line. I'd say drunk is when you can no longer control your body with a certain degree of control. Buzzed is being buzzed obviously and heavily buzzed will mean you're still sluggish but can obviously keep up more than enough.

Drunk is like when you try to do something and don't make it all the way through while buzzed means you accomplish tasks successfully. I'm buzzed right now for example and can type just fine without making corrections. 40 in 40 waiting roight now nigga

>>6955357
I do want to add that buzzed is still in the realm of accomplishing tasks successfully but just at a slower pace, drunk is like when you fail or struggle at doing simple things.

Does drinking a beer a night make me an alcoholic?

Will it fuck me up in the long run?

>>6955357

So, in your opinion anon, would you say that being slightly numb in the limb, struggling to type without autocorrect etc etc is drunk or buzzed?

>>6955408

is this b8?

>>6955408


I shouldn't think so, 1 beer shouldn't equal to more than whatever the UK gov says is okay to drink per night (around 4 units at most if memory serves me correctly). That's what, 1 bottle at 5%? A bottle and a half maybe?

So yeah you're good to go drink that one beer a day, unless is the strength of fucking absinthe or something.

Delicious.

gonna get some vodka and mcdonalds later

>>6955464
I wish I knew a chick like this. I just want to party with cool people, not sot around drinking with a bunch of people staring at their phones all night.

Finishing my handle of Bacardi Gold, then going to switch to some very vile tequila

>>6955210
>>>
I going to have to be honest I drink 3 to 4 24ozs every day of this. Better then getting the shits from drinking Hurricane.

>>6955408
it might. 1 beer turns to 2, eventually 3 and so on until you potentially hit 12. but if you keep it at 1 then no youre good.

Has anyone started to notice stores going to plastic 40s?

It's fucking horrible, I can't get a mickey's 40 packaged in anything but a giant ugly mouthwash bottle.

>>6955664

>>6955413
I'd say you may be drunk, or heavily buzzed. So there's buzzed and heavily buzzed. Buzzed is when like you're feeling it my g but can acconpkish tasks my nigga. If you struggling too much you might be drunk. But there is light drunk and heavily drunk while there is buzzed and heavily buzzed.

>>6955664
Cause nigga you gotta keep shit in insperpective, dropping a glass 40 of OE on the streets means no more drank, plastic just richochets my nigga, keeping our dranksafe to drank sum more nigga

>>6955794
whitey anon over here

>>6955408
that depends, can you switch to 0 per night w/ no problems or do you start getting after a few days of that? it's not really based on the quantity but how you relate/react to it. some people can knock back tons w/ no issue. others drink themselves to misery with just a couple cocktails per night.

>>6955989

New Amsterdam gin, like every night. Cheap and good, if you're into gins on the more citrusy side

>>6956014
Arbys guy

Does anyone know what's a good armagnac to drink? Been trying to branch out to some harder liquors than craft piss water and I'm finding out all these things about grades and aging and youthfulness of these different kinds of hard liquor.

>>6956050
>Cheap and good, if you're into gins on the more citrusy side
But isn't New Amsterdam like one of those companies that don't specialize in making gins?

cheap lager followed by even cheaper pear cider

I'm not even poor or anything. I just love cheap & cheerful boozing

This is what i have a thing for now.

I was trying to get serious with this dumb broad awhile back and gave up the hootch. Tried to get back into it earlier this year and was pretty disappointed to find out they don't make Big Bear anymore. tfw Colt .45 & Black Bull just aren't the same. oh well

did they mean Short Cold?

Rich as fuck in flavor, maybe even a bit too aromatic for a beer to drink right after a meal.

Some red wine soon. Anyone else prefer red wine cold? I like to have it cold and neck 1/3rd of the bottle in a glass in one go.

>>6956994
Basically, OE tastes like sweet malt and a tinge of alcohol. Imagine a beer-flavoured soda.

The drunk is just like beer drunk, I don't buy into the "different drinks make you feel different" meme.

>>6956805

hvad så??

Drinking this heavy, tasty as fuck motherfucker this fine evening.

I'm liking all the piss beers in this thread. Who the fuck has the money to get drunk every night off all this Fancy shit.

I just buy two 3 packs and 25oz Bud Lite. Gets me drunk and isn't horrible.

Only one way to find out, and that's to marry her.

I'm willing to take the bullet. Anybody know where she lives?

how is 2 40s considered "alcoholism?"

I went on a 3 month stint in college where I was drinking a 12 pack a day. and i only realized how bad it was when i saw my bank account.

Most I ever go with alcohol is maybe 1 wine glass per event and maybe 1 shot of whatever hard liquor I feel like drinking once a week at the most.

>>6959858
I presume you're sipping that serving of liquor? Most people don't call them shots unless they're taking them as shots.

Or, if you're taking it as a shot, why? You don't get a chance to taste it, and there's not enough alcohol there to have any worthwhile effect.

>>6959863
The shots is basically just the measure of drink. But yes, it's mostly sipping.

>>6959863
>wanting to get drunk instead of enjoying the flavor of the drink with full consciousness

I dk what dry means. It has more flavour than a typical standard bitter type lager, but its more like a Japanese style lager than an Australian Crownie type beer.

>>6961957
He's trolling, old-timer.

>>6955210

I'm actually quitting cold turkey, at least for a few months. It's already been a few days and I feel so much better.

I was drinking a fifth of 90 proof vodka every night for about 2-3 weeks straight, and before that it was every other day or so. My tolerance was so high, I could drink a fifth or more and still function as if I was sober (driving. cooking, etc).

I will say this, I've been bored shitless ever since I stopped, but I'm sure that will pass.

....I am still planning on drinking a few beers here and there. I'm just trying to stop binge drinking liquor.

>>6955323
> strong and cheap
strong sure but definitely not cheap, not for a long time.
This is the drink of choice for the money conscious alkie.

>>6963481

I have no idea how you can drink this. All I see on Saturdays is disgusting chavs puking this unmitigated blue shit up on the pavement, often before 1700. Are you one of them?

>>6963508
No, I'm an alkie, I drink at home alone. Getting good at drinking this stuff takes time, dedication and stamina.

>>6963516
You also get know the people who run the local offie quite well.

Best bourbon I've ever had.

>>6963592

Can you anons rec me some rum that's wonderful yet affordable?

And throwup in the car, let's get drunk

Straight up on four

Don't forget about Legit though
Danked out, and full of that Cisco
Siding with the proper dame I don't know her name
But I'm lovin this part of the game (yeah)
And I'mma take her for a real ride (uh-huh)
Somewhere deep in the hillside
I got about a eighth in the coo-ler (coo-ler)
I thinks this just might do her (might do her?)
And ain't nobody gonna stop me main (yeah)
Once I gets her sloppy main (sloppy main)
Drunk as a skunk, and high as a kite
I hope I don't earl on baby tonight

Used to be sophisticated, but now she's intosticated
High society stuck up broad, violated then graduated
If we was the seven, can we get eight? (uh-huh, sure)
Just by you forgettin to say (yeah)
And then the question later, just like my big ol middle finger
Such an ignorant question, sittin in the corner blushin
It's really no problems I'mma go head and side and like I'm hecka stuck
And watch baby drink up

Cause I'm in it to win, as I'm tossin a ten
To plug it right, that is my mo-tive
To dig real dip, as I explose this
And watch the expression, on her face (yeah)
It gets me off as I collaborate
But that's how it goes another night, another session
But the tender straight taught me a lesson
Night number two (yeah) I know I shoulda been sober (uh-huh)
But now I'm advanced, and I'm about to bend her over
I can't get enough of that fetti for real
And now I'm hopin that she's on the pill (yeah)

did you get night sweats and anxiety?

i stopped for a week and i hated it so guess what i did.

also what made you want to quit

40oz of steel reserve and a 24oz natty daddy

I haven't drank since Wednesday. I-....is that pretty good?

>>6955413
I remember recently reading a report on a study finding that the long term health effects are the same whether you have one drink every night or binge them all in one go

It really depends on what you call a "beer" though. At home it'd be a nice 568ml pint of 5% or so, but here in the land of cuckolds and insecurity it would be a tiny coke sized can of some lite macrobrew

>>6964917
Yeah just don't buy any locally produced craft brews, they're fucking horrible and only sell because americans are teying desperately to convince themselves they make the best beer now

I'm actually quitting for a while because for the last few months alcohol barely got me buzzed and was practically nyquil for me. Plus I get stomach aches instead of drunk now. I'm fairly sure my digestive tract has been slightly corroded. Might go without until around Thanksgiving.

As other anons have already stated in this thread, being sober is SO FUCKING BORING.

>>6965190

Night sweats, no. Anxiety, yes. I also had very shaky hands the first day without. I'm on day 3 now and feel great. I don't seem to be having too many issues, thankfully. I've heard horror stories like people having seizures or heart attacks.

I just want to stay quit for a month or so, then start drinking a few beers when I get home in the evening. The goal isn't to stop drinking, it's to stop chugging (basically) liquor.

QUESTION FOR ALL DRINKERS...

Is the beer belly thing a myth? Will I gain any more weight from drinking a 6 pack in the evening as opposed to a pint of vodka?

>>6967559
>Is the beer belly thing a myth?

Depends on what you mean. There's no guarantee that drinking beer will put extra weight on your belly.

>>Will I gain any more weight from drinking a 6 pack in the evening as opposed to a pint of vodka?

Assuming you are drinking the same amount of alcohol in either case, and that you're drinking the vodka straight instead of mixing it then the beer would result in more weight gain. Vodka is alcohol only. Beer contains alcohol as well as carbs. Whether or not that extra weight ends up on your belly or elsewhere on your body is up to genetics.

>>6967559
>Is the beer belly thing a myth? Will I gain any more weight from drinking a 6 pack in the evening as opposed to a pint of vodka?
Yes. pecifically, it has to do with the phytestrogens in the hops. It has an effect similar to pueraria mirifica.

>beerfags thinking they are alcoholics
Step it up niggas and go to the hard shit. Even winos drink harder than you.
>6959463
Use to drink a fifth a night plus whatever else it took to get me through the day to stay calm. I wouldn't say it's normal but it always felt right to me. Trying to stay sober now though.
>tfw the withdrawals are finally easing off but the cravings just get worse
>tfw tempting yourself by posting in an alcoholics thread
I miss alcohol bros, but I'm already in too deep in aa.

>>6955210
I drink oe if i gotta work the next day. Pic related if not

>tfw gave in to cravings today
I just don't know anymore

>>6968837
It's OK. We all die. Some of us just deteriorate sooner than others.

>>6967578
I see nothing but some girl's legs and hips.

>>6968837
same. Half through a fifth, I don't feel any better than I did. Cutting back isn't hard, its just boring. And now drinking is boring too. I can't even feel anymore, I almost miss being sad.

>>6961670
this. $2.50 for a 4 pack of 16oz's, I usually down a 4 pack 3-4 times a week. This whole "being an alcoholic" thing is starting to get old though, I'm starting to notice the physical effects, I constantly feel like shit anytime I'm not drinking

>>6968852
>I almost miss being sad.
Why do we hate ourselves that we must prefer this to normal states.

>>6968837
today i woke up and decided not to have a breakfast beer.
willpower is understated these days. it's easier not to think of things as a challenge, but instead a choice.
learn to enjoy pacing yourself, and don't beat yourself up too much about giving in.
don't place anything higher than your health, safety and wellbeing also helps imho.
hope you're doing okay, anon, and to all anons going through the struggle.

>>6963384
I think he thought other anon was saying he drinks 12 40oz a night

>>6968919
I can't even hate myself or anything anymore. I feel nothing, good or bad. I can't even be enough of a human to feel depressed, angry, or agitated. I can't be happy, excited, or curious either. I used to have so much life, for better or worse. I'd get mad, I'd have enough spark to learn things I found interesting. I had friends to hug and enemies to fight. Now I just don't and it isn't even bad. I've mostly quit drinking, sometimes I do. I can't even find the motivation to kill myself because I've internally killed any feeling or motivating drive to take on something so meaningful.

How is bombay sapphire gin? I see it pictured in peoples collections here so much and I'd really like to try it, and it doesn't sound too expensive at 23$ a bottle. Should I grab some little airplane bottles of it?

>>6969697
Same here, I always wake up in the middle of the night with no tiredness out of nowhere. It's probably because I'm so deep asleep when I drink enough that I wake up feeling perfect.

>>6967559
>Is the beer belly thing a myth?

No, beer will bloat you generally and make you look fatter than you are
Obviously it has more calories than vodka so you'll get fatter too

>>6968850

>Girl

>>6970280
It's popular... that is all I can say for it. Pretty weak tasting, but might be because I really like juniper and Sapphire has a poor showing for it.

If it's your first foray into gin, then it'd be a good choice, but it is basically vodka with some mild flavourings.

Evan Williams bourbon. it's fucking garbage

>>6955210

This is a lot of alcohol for an american?

>>6970330
Sorta depends on what particular variety of OE that is. It's anywhere from 6 to 8 % abv. That's 5 proper 16oz pints there and I'd say five pints of an 8% drink is a fair bit by anyone's standards. Unless you're Finnish or Russian.

Haven't opened it yet but I will be drinking this today

>>6970354
Ever heard of a Tactical Nuclear Penguin?

>>6970412
Why yes.

Is this an everyday beer for non-Americans?

>>6970465
Nope. Not at all, Jamal.

>>6959463
Yeah, even without that much training.
When going out, my nights usually last from 8/9pm to 3/4 am, sometimes later.
A fifth (750ml) of everything between 20-50% shouldn't be a problem.
Most will be pretty drunk, but that ain't enough for a hangover.
I'd wager I would do a fifth of forties in two or three hours without feeling that bad, and I'm drinking a few beers every other night and hard stuff like thrice a month, only on weekends.

How much do you typically drink before work, /ck/?

>thread almost died

saving it

It's 3:44 Am where I live (norway) and I've gotten started on my beers; I woke up late and managed to distract myself for most of the day, but I knew I had beer in the fridge. Only 3 half-liter 4.5%'s down, and the store opens again in 4 hours and 15 minutes.

A local brewery here in Tulsa. This is fucking delicious. 13% ABV too.

On my second one, got two more in the fridge.

GIMME GIMME GIMME MY STEEL RESERVE

>>6974906
Nice man.

can you tell me about steel reserve? it's just a high ABV cheap lager beer?

as a norwegian used to drinking the cheapest of beers to save money, i suppose it would actually be pretty good?

>>6974951
yeah, it's 40 oz of 8.1% ABV malt liquor(sweet, strong, usually shitty lager) for 2.50-3.00 USD, which is a good deal no matter how you look at it.

>>6968852

Same. Tonight is my first night in weeks/maybe months that I havent had a drink. Usually need about 10 of those 100 proof Smirnoff Root Beer or Espresso nips a night after work.

Tired of blacking out nightly though

>>6974956
that does sound pretty nice anon

as a frequent user of alcohol I sort of wish I lived in another country, either eastern europe or USA.

I know this sounds ridiculous but it costs me about 19 bucks for 3 liters of 4.5% beer. And I can't buy liqour or wine or any alcohol stronger than 4.6% in the grocery store.

it sucks

>>6975039
I live in Denver, and you can't buy anything stronger than 3.4% in grocery stores and gas stations. There's a liquor store on practically every block, though

What about Natural Ice? Cheap beer, and 5.9%.

Just bought this today. It was expensive as hell, but looks good. Bought the apple brandy noir as well.I live in Norway btw.

Majorska Vodka & Powerade.

>>6955266
American here, reporting for duty.

It's strong beer that has this gross fucking sweet taste to it. It's utter shit and people only drink it around here if they're black or hipster faggots. No one else seriously drinks 40s of malt.

>>6974897

Fuck me why can't Americans just drink fucking proper BEER? You are literally children.

ITT: whites without friends

>>6955299
This one is also white.

>>6976479
It's been explained multiple times in here that they're imbibed because they're cheap and an efficient means of getting plastered.

>>6976485
>it's n-not proper beer you s-stupid Americans

i have to call it quits for a while. i got the worst withdrawals ive ever had on monday and i was about ready to call the hospital.
effects are lingering throughout the week and it's scaring me pretty bad. im realizing that i could really hurt myself if i continue this way.

sorry for the blog post but i thought maybe some of you could relate. if not go fuck yourselves.

>>6977350
Hang in there, I went through physical dependence and checked into hospital detox. It isn't cheap but if you think you might have seizures and die its what you have to do. How much were you drinking, how much have you drank this week, and what were your drinking patterns? You able to go to work?

>>6977371
>Hang in there, I went through physical dependence and checked into hospital detox. It isn't cheap but if you think you might have seizures and die its what you have to do
i dont think im at the point of seizures, but elevated shallow heartbeat and trouble breathing. it's just enough to make me realize i need to stop or at least cut way down.

>How much were you drinking, how much have you drank this week, and what were your drinking patterns? You able to go to work?
usually a handle of vodka over 2 or 3 days, drinking every night with maybe 1 or 2 days off. havent drank this week at all which i think is why the withdrawals arent going away. i didnt go to work on monday but every other day has been ok. i sit at a desk so it's tolerable but physical exertion makes my heart race and i have to stop.

>>6977412
Your very close to being in big trouble, please realize this. I wouldn't check into a hospital if I were you, its just too expensive. I went through every phase of alcoholism though and you are right on the brink of going over that edge. And you should be scared because it gets much worse. Right now it sounds like you can limit yourself with some effort, please do for your sake. If you don't soon it reaches a point where you have zero control.

>>6977431
alright thanks man. i am fucking terrified honestly and i hope all this clears up over the next few days. i appreciate your advice.

>>6977455
Keep your head up, you can still cut back and after your withdrawal subsides you'll feel much better. It really does suck but I can't stress enough that you can't turn your back on it. I didn't know that when I was where you are right now and let it slip so far I couldn't get a grip on it. It's really small miracle I didn't end up dead or in jail, those last months were just hellish. Whatever works for you though, maybe it's complete abstinence if you need that, or maybe it's cutting down and drinking responsibly after you dry up for awhile. I just don't want anyone to go through a crippling addiction if they don't have to, its so bad.

going back and forth between these two

Do alcoholics think of alcohol as a drug or not?
If not, why?

>>6977643
Yes. If you don't, you're either in denial or not an alcoholic. If you're the kind of person who drinks sometimes just because you like the taste and don't even drink enough to get drunk, that's the only way I can buy somebody saying "it's not a drug to me".

>>6977486
I had a really bad panic attack today and went to the ER. They got me on some meds for a while and I think I might join a program or something

>>6977961
Sorry to hear. After detox I did outpatient rehab for a couple months and stopped going, I don't think it helped me because I couldn't relate to the people in there. Most of them were straight ankle monitor criminals and parolees who had to go for probation, I was probably the only one there voluntarily. There were a couple other whites that looked rough as fuck. I went to an AA meeting that actually seemed like a really good and laid back group, everyone chainsmoked inside and said fuck a lot while downing pots of coffee. I didn't go back because of my anxiety speaking in front of groups but if you find a chill AA group it probably helps a lot. Best thing to do is straight up admit it to somebody your really close to, maybe a parent, best friend, or girlfriend. I couldn't have just stopped on my own, I opened up and told someone how deep of shit I was in, they were shocked but thankful.

>>6970280
I usually get it and mix it with some tonic, lemons, and limes. It's my unwinding drink, but I'm the only person I know that likes gin and doesn't become a bitter fuck up getting drunk on it.

Cheers again buddays, gonna get drunk

>>6978850
whats for dinner budday?

on my second 40oz of 211

>>6978884
Oh, just had some mostaccioli to finish up some leftover sauce. Would post it but I already ate it.

>>6977600

>>6968837

BUT FAM

fam I gotta know

how much does one 40 cost where you live (AZ)

I feel like I'm getting ripped off when I hear about people getting actually cheap malt liquor (less than $2)

It's like $2.99 before tax for me

fam pls

>>6982010
2.62 at the liquor store I go to in MI, but they give em to me three 40s for six bucks even because they're cool with me

Different stores have diff prices though, 711 is the most overpriced place I've seen

Been a total hipster tonight and fucking loved it

Smoked a pipe all night and sipped port wine

>>6970320
Is that even bourbon? I thought it was Tennessee, or sour mash

SCHOOL EXPERINCE

Drinking this homebrew IPA.
The recipe said its a Hairy Eyeball clone but I've never tasted Hairy Eyeball so I'm not sure if it tastes like it.

Came home from a party earlier and started working on some tequila. For middle of the road tequila I love this stuff.

>>6985514
And apparently I live in Australia, sorry gents.

why won't you guys just stop drinking?

>>6985524
>actually facing life sober

>>6985524
yea, like thats an option

Guys. Why do we do this to ourselves?

>>6979833

Is it gr8?

>>6986436
Beats the shit out of Captain Morgan. It's great mixed with vanilla coke. Others recommend orange juice, but I never tried that.

>tfw broke up with gf and think it was a mistake
>tfw finished just about all liquor and beer i had on hand
>tfw drunk text her and ask if she wants to talk
>her reply has exclamation points after every sentence
feels bad man

>>6985378
hairy eyeball is not even IPA m8

>>6986611
could be worse. on Friday night I ended up making out with my gf's friend while she watched kek

>>6986636
at least you still have gf bro

>>6986652
I don't that's the point

>>6986655
sorry

>>6986688
It worked out better in the end really

>>6979833
My nigga. Best rum I've ever had.

>>6986598
I just use normal Coca-Cola. (We get the proper sugared version.) It's delicious enough to be sippable on its own.

I only drink occasionally, and not much (I'm a lightweight, in every sense), and very good stuff when I do, so... this thread makes me feel kind of bad for some of you. Stay alive, anons.

noon on Sunday, I've got a few of these left from last night, probably gonna finish them off pretty soon, then buy some more beer. I gotta get up at 5 tomorrow so I'm probably gonna get day drunk and be in bed by eight

I don't really like hard liquor, wine is good, but I like being able to drink all day and not get too fucked up. nothing like a steady day buzz.

i really need to stop

>>6985524
How else would we hold back the crushing loneliness?

>>6987159

i ask myself this every day
