So last friday the day after my birthday i went bowling with my parents and old neighbors, and they bought me a few drinks, a margarita and a coors light. Now i was far from drink, hell i was far from buzzed, but surprisingly i bowled the best game of my life a 149, i wound up beating my mom and neighbors and almost beating my dad, keep in mind my parents are in a bowling league so their actually realyl good, as the alcohol started to wear off my score went down dramatically to what i was used to in my other games, so drinking had an interesting effect on me.
Then a few days later i got some beer my coworker reccomended at work, New Castle, and after one i felt really tired so i slept, its very amusing to see the effects of alcohol.
I doubt many people on here have experimented wtih alcohol but if you have discuss your experiences

Drinking? You can't drink! You're like, 20. =O
Unless the drinking laws are different in California. o.o Here, you gotta be 21.
On topic, I had to drink a lot of really bad wine at a friend's Passover like once. They were like, "You're supposed to drink the whole glass!"

But, but...!
Anyway...Since we're all coming clean here...>>...
Bad description of the century: "It tastes exactly like ginger-ale." Gee, thanks, parental units. I assume that's why I burned off about twenty taste buds in less than four seconds. I didn't even have to swallow it before I realized there was something fizzy and acidic in my mouth. In fact, I never swallowed it; I luckily made it to a sink before I spit that nastiness out on the carpet.
For my main point: CHAMPAGNE DOES NOT TASTE LIKE GINGER ALE. EVER. That is all.
Oh, and on a side note, I'm actually allergic to alcohol, now, as well as everything else in life...Meh.

I've had a few drinks and alcohol cakes... which shouldn't surprise anyone. I've never been truely drunk but I have noticed that the first thing to go when alcohol enters my system is the ability to spell anything over 4 letters. Yes, I'm not 21 (Yet) but it doesn't matter. I don't plan to get smashed or even drink when its not a holiday or brithday.
Oh and for you people with champagne problems, try mixing it with orange juice. Tasted decent when I did it.

Champagne? How do you have a problem with champagne's taste? Unless you decided the glug it down like you most likely did, in which you're not supposed to. Little sips next time, okay? On topic, I had to drink a lot of really bad wine at a friend's Passover like once. They were like, "You're supposed to drink the whole glass!" It was probably Mannichewitz, you'd think they'd find better kosher wine at this point. And yes, I'm a connoisseur, but I'm the only one I know so whenever my friends go and get some cheap box wine I'm always the one complaining "You can get better stuff then that!"

Haha, we learn something new about you every month, Silva. ;D
I'm no connoisseur, for sure...the most experience I had with champagne was one New Years when I set my schorle down at the table, went outside to watch fireworks, then came back inside and picked up the wrong glass.
As a matter of fact, I'm not too experienced with alcohol, but I've had enough to know that domestic beer is crap (I spit Miller back out much in the same manner as TO) and most others aren't much better (it took me three or four hours to down a single Corona, even with the lime). I also learned that drinking spiced rum without something mixed in is a horrible mistake.
But, yea, that's about it.

But... But you were 19 just last September, weren't you? How is that physically possible? =O!
This One: I am 17, but I don't know anybody who never drank any alcoholic beverage of any kind before they were 21. Let's face it, parents and/or assorted relatives think giving their kids booze is hilarious.

No i was 20, and i had my first drink when i was 19, bacardi 151, the most disgusting drink ever, and EJP eating cakes with alcohol means nothing cause the booze evaporates when it bakes, just leaving a different taste to the food.

Once again you fail. You see, the booze enter the cake, AFTER the baking. Meaning that the cake becomes an alcoholic sponge.

My dad would like you, Silva. He's the owner of a liquor store and a wine connoisseur himself, specializing in exotic/rare/hard-to-get wines. I've never drank myself, and I don't plan to, but I thought I'd contribute that anyway.

So you were eating soggy cakes? Nope. You see there is a trick to it. One of which that many people don't get and If your thinking don't use that much booze then you'd be wrong. My dad knows how to fill a cake with a little over half a bottle of rum. I'd tell you how to do it, but I don't like you, let alone trust you.
