I'll be personally delivering your secret santa gift this year, a bottle of vodka and a sleeping bag. :D

Drank a full bottle of wine the night we put up the tree. That did the trick. Had a good "glow." Usually about 6-8 beers and I'm done.

The amount of alcohol it takes me to get "drunk" is directly proportional to the weight of the chick I'm trying to score.

I wish I could get drunk on very little alcohol... the stuff tastes horrible. It takes me 8 shots of something 80 proof, 5 shots of something 150 proof. Every time I've drank stuff higher than 100 proof though, I've ended up puking the next morning.

After 3-4 beers, I can feel it coming but I don't feel drunk at all. I'm usually only drunk after 6-8 beers. A very good night will be around 10 beers. I've drank ±12 (I loose count after a while) a couple of times, but that's the max I can go. After that amount, I just stand there with the beer in my hand... it gets warm and it tastes like shit.

One time, me and one of my friend went to a pyjama party at university and we drank 10 tequilas in a row. I was buzzed but not drunk at all. Then like 45mins later we went for it again for 6 more. Two minutes later I could barely walk. Teehee, good old times.

In my prime (at my lowest) my night didn't start until I started my evening with a half-case of beer then I would proceed to party seriously...for example, between 7 guys we drank over 31 (we stopped counting around 30-31)cases of beer in a weekend.

Anymore, it varies on what I'm doing and if I'm just drinking to get drunk.

I just turned 21, and man, I have little tolerance.

Actually an adult prides themselves on pacing their alcohol intake so that it serves as a pleasurable enhancement to an evening not a potentially embarrasing episode to be lived down the next day.

I don't drink but I weigh 110 lbs and have no learned tolerance for alcohol. Reading the label would probably put me out. :)

I get a really good buzz after about 6 beers, but by that time my stomach is full of way too much liquid period, so I prefer hard liquior. To get me really drunk I need the hard stuff, and a lot of it.

I'm 22, 6'1", 200lbs

rofl! My old girlfriend (asian) drank about half a Mikes Hard lemonadge and was already gone and ready to ... , i wonder if all asian women are like that.

It takes me quite a few, i've taken 10 shots of tequila in an hour before, not felt a thing, and drove home an hour later. I estimate its around 20 shots.

Koreans are the exception, there's a couple out there that could probably outdrink me.

Finished off a whole case of Sac Brewing Red Horse Ale before by myself (everyone else wanted Coronas so I figured cool, more for me!) and I ended up falling asleep on the crapper. Tolerance is lower now so I'm trying for quality over quantity.

Last night I made myself 2 Tokyo Teas and a margarita (restocked the apt and wanted to experiment), that got me going pretty good. I messed up though, cups were too small for what I was trying to make.

im a light weight. it usually takes me about 4 Oz mugs of beer to get me drunk or 2 long islands.

though one night me a buddy had 3 long islands, 5 shots of beefeaters and like 5 whiskey sours each in one night. i walked out of there fine. woke up without a hangover or nothing! but he was really trashed.
