why can't I get drunk off of Heineken ?

[funkg]

what's like the alchohol content of this stuff? I've been tapping a heinikeg all night and don't feel anything, what's up with that? Its raining here in southern california and I want to go to bed drunk damnit.. you know it's been a while since I told my wife I love her. I can't seem to get myself to say it anymore. IT's not that I don't. I do, I really do love her.. but today I realized why I don't tell her anymore. I'm afraid of what her response will be. I fear it won't be "I love you to". Sorry for this pitiful rant, maybe I am getting drunk after all.

good night.

It is 5% . . .
Maybe whiskey will help.
Tell her anyway, but also bring in a nice bunch of flowers.

[Ivan Fuentes]

well... love ain't like with the HV20... in this case, size DOES matter

[Mal]

LOL Jo_the_big_O, yeah maybe the cure is something like over-proof rum?

The effect will be either this:




or this:

[harkangelproductions]

Try drinking more.

Having an empty stomach doesn't hurt either.

[GlennG]

Will drinking more encourage your wife to say, "I love you, too"? Doesn't seem very strategic to me.

Saying, "I love you", doesn't always mean "I love you". In this case, it sounds like the real question you'd be asking by saying, "I love you", is actually "Do you love me?" If you want to express your love, then invest yourself in making her feel loved... whatever that means in the context of your relationship.

If she thinks that you're only asking "do you love me?" in different words, then you haven't done a good enough job of demonstrating / expressing that what you are trying to say / proove.... is that you REALLY do love her.... regardless of her response.

Do you never drink ?

speaking of weed, love the show weeds. anyone else. there's nothing like sittin' on the couch watchin' weed or deadwood on an 8' screen and gettin' baked.

wow glenn bonafide free shrink session!

wow glenn bonafide free shrink session!

probably with all us video addicts here we could use a "shrink" section. what do ya think. maybe the tavern is just as good a place.

i'll tell ya what, if you want to forget about your problems, just get hooked on showtimes "weeds" or hbo's "deadwood". i've purchased every season that is out on DVD. can't quit watchin' them. "deadwood" is about the most addictive, well written & acted tv show i have ever seen.

another thing i've found out both with weed and alcohol, is that the mood your in and your surroundings have a big affect on how grass or alcohol affect you. that's not to say you can't get drunk or baked but moods and environment do play a big roll in their affects. i haven't discussed this with a professional so it's just from my own experience that i make these statements.

incidentally, i've always wondered if mal posts the statements at the bottom of the forum or is that randomly automatically generated from the forum application. i think that they are usually pretty good.

hey, i think I was able to get a buzz going, but beer gives me nasty gas if I drink too much. So far it's fasting plus hard booze, weed, penis enlargers, flowers and Dr. Phil. Hahaha, the hv20 support group rocks!

[lordtangent]

Heineken? How can you even drink that shit. If you are just trying to get a buzz on, (and since you obviously are not picky about your beer) why don't you just drink Bud Lite? It's got a higher alcohol content and it's cheaper.

Or just skip the beer and hit the vodka. That works every time. No problem with the gas either.

Though, I think stumbling around the house drunk isn't going to be the key to your ladies heart. Maybe you should spend mroe of your drinking money and time on spending time with her?

[funkg]

shit, that's the thing about men. We can offer each other solutions and take it. Women fucken want mind readers that feed their sorry ass persecution complexes. And fuck, the truth about beer, just like soda, is it taste like shit. You eventually get used to it, then actually start liking it. Then you may even develop an elite taste in the piss, and with confidence you declare that everyone else’s taste in beer is ass! But when you get older, you fucken don't care whether coke taste better than Pepsi, cause your taste and experience has expanded beyond a frat boy's main poison. You've enjoyed 200 dollar bottles of wine, dined in 4 star restaurants across the globe... and now, back down the spiral, beer becomes nothing more than Gatorade, just there to quench your thirst. So with your slowing metabolism and growing waistline, you stock your fridge with the low cal, low carb piss in da bottles.. Maybe you'll get a buzz, maybe you'll just get gas..

Please note, that in Holland also we have horses.
They drink Heineken and they piss Budweiser.
By the way, Heineken is a Dutch brand.

[bluegrass]

i live about 3 miles from AB headquarters and keep bud light in the fridge for my friends, weed in the freezer - to share when appropriate, & wine in a rack on the kitchen counter.

what's in yours?

i think any booze or beer takes some time to actually enjoy the taste.

now women, that's a whole nother subject that probably is too deep to get into even in this tavern. respect them and love them.

can't see stumblin' around drunk would be appealing to anyone near you.

weed's an entirely different trip & non addictive.

[VideJo]

Though all Americans are sure, that Holland is a main player in the drugs scene, I must confess I never had any of it. Not even weed.
Am I fit to become President of the US of A now? I thinks so, because as all citizens of the US that are alive on the moment have used and when running for office, they will be grinded flush with the pavement by the opposition, once they find out the candidate has used . . .

[blondandfun]

I don't get drunk off Heineken either. I only drink a few Heineken's late after drinking cocktails to help avoid a hangover. I think the reason is its hard to drink it fast because its so bitter. Guinness draught (NOT stout), however, is very refreshing and easy to drink fast and gets me a nice drunk.

[skiltrip]

hide a shot of hennessey in each of your heinekens and you'll do ok.

[SpiritCatcher]

Funkg
Maybe they accidently filled your keg with Buckler!

Barack Obama has admitted to smoking pot and doing coke when he was young, and I don't think it's hurt him too much. In fact, I think he gained some respect for being open and honest about it. Hopefully a sign of things to come.

[CJDaniels]

I would want my president to have tried it.

At night if I am trying to relax, I would drink my beer while sipping on a JD.
Heineken is not my favorite, I don't mind it draft of in those kegs but bottles for whatever reason have a nasty after taste.

In Costa Rica, Heineken is the cheapest beer you can drink.

[lordtangent]

I think the reason the bottle "Heini" get's so foul is the green bottles. It gets "skunked" too easily. For those that don't know, UV, even relatively small amounts, can make beer go "off" and get skunky or worse. Even the UV from the flo lights at the market is sometimes enough.

Well, and the fact that Heineken is pretty bad to begin with. I mean, there isn't a lot of latitude before it goes from being bad to being unbearably bad.

That's funny...when I was living in Germany some years back...that's exactly what my German friends called bud...PISS WATER. lol Then they gave me this German beer called Bitburg Pills...DAM... all you needed was one bottle.

[Ian-T]

speaking of weed, love the show weeds. anyone else. there's nothing like sittin' on the couch watchin' weed or deadwood on an 8' screen and gettin' baked.

My three favourite shows (and I really don't watch too much television)
1. Weeds -- About a suddenly single suburban Mom turned drug dealer
2. Spencer-- About a "serial killer" with a concious
3. Entourage -- About a movie star and his home boys livin under one roof constantly gettin baked.
