We’ve all been there. There’s an urge to throw up that is so strong it takes over your entire body, and then you have to make it stop.
The urge to throw up is a classic example of the brain-chemical called alcohol. While the brain is filled with adrenaline, dopamine, and other neurotransmitters, the alcohol activates the same nerve-cell receptors that cause vomiting. Alcohol is a depressant and so it takes a long time to calm down after a big binge. This is why you see so many people who’ve had too much to drink that haven’t gotten a wink of sleep.
You know what also gets you really drunk? Staying awake too long. Alcohol is a drug, and as we’ve seen, it can have effects on sleep and even performance. The combination of alcohol and booze-induced anxiety makes it a particularly bad combination for the average person: the first person to realize that they have a problem stops the party, and the alcohol-fueled social interaction goes on to create feelings of social isolation, anxiety, and depression.
The effect of alcohol is so strong that it can be seen in other people’s sleep as well. When I first met the stinker I was with a couple of other stinker friends who were drinking. The stinker friends then decided to make me drink that shit, and because I had a lot of extra sleep, I ended up sleeping over at night. I don’t know if they were actually drunk enough to really experience it, but if they were, then they would have been completely drunk.
Drinking and partying is like a drug. It takes you out of normal, everyday, routine, and forces you to be more aware of your surroundings. Drinking makes you focus on your surroundings instead of on the people around you. When you’re drunk, you can’t really pay attention to the people around you and you get distracted by whatever you’re doing. You also forget what the world looks like outside of your own body.
Its not just the alcohol (or the party) that makes people drunk, it’s the drugs. While drinking, you’re also high and you cant really control your actions anymore. You start to act in ways you would normally not. You can forget what your body looks like or what your surroundings look like. You just act like youre drunk for the majority of the time.
This is a bad thing to think about, and it means someone needs to be on the lookout for a new way to go. That’s a lot better than just having your face covered and saying “I know how it feels to be drunk, but I’m not”. We’re all in on the “you know” part of the “what I’m drinking” part of the “what I’m not drinking”.
So you can forget what your body looks like or what your surroundings look like. So you just act like youre drunk for the majority of the time. This is a bad thing to think about, and it means someone needs to be on the lookout for a new way to go. Thats a lot better than just having your face covered and saying I know how it feels to be drunk, but Im not.
There’s a reason why drunk russian chicks are so popular right now. They are incredibly cute and easy to control.
I like it better when its the two of you being drunk talking to one another. Just like the girl in the club with the drunk Russian girl that you just couldn’t resist.
