/ck/ - Food & Cooking

31 dollars to my name and I just bought a $12 box of wine. Feels okay, man.

>>9632447
That'll keep you going until the next box of wine to keep you going.

Been sober for 4 days, gabapentin and xanax rx helps i guess. what the fuck do sober people do?

>>9632521
Don't sit on your ass refresing /ck/ all day.
Go for some walks, go to the library and read etc etc. Getting out of the house should be your main concern.

Is Hibiki any good? I keep on hearing praises about it but never had it.

Got hit with the murica mandatory health insurance meme and have been reduced to drinking Fleichmans and Potters vodka

>$668 for health insurance plus an additional $480 in child support for my daughter is garnished each month off my paychecks

Feels bad man

>>9632536
wrong board buddy

>>9632556
Hibiki is a japanese Whisky you uneducated weebtrash

>>9632555
You shouldn't have put your cum inside a lady

Classic mistake

When was the last time any of you guys took a solid shit?

I've been sober for a little over a week now. Really miss the comfy burn down my throat. Wish I could find something similar.

>>9632570
Today, I was invited to dinner at an italian restaurant and ended up drinking a bottle of red wine and three glasses of Limoncello

>angrily ripping fellow anons a new asshole while drunk

best feel

I'm praying cancer kills me before Christmas, I have been expecting to die all fucking year. I'm sick of waiting

How many empty beer cans do you have in your bathroom right now?

>>9632576
Even before I started drinking hard, when I was sixteen, I was hospitalized after not taking a shit all summer. Went to pee one day and literally couldn't; dad rushed me to the hospital and turned out I had so much shit built up inside me that it was literally bulging my bladder up against my abdominal wall. They had to give me a catheter and manually drain my bladder, then feed me laxatives for three days and told me if I couldn't shit, they'd have to cut me open and clean it out manually.

Nowadays I don't shit for a week at a time and I'm haunted by that happening so I take stool softener regularly and I'm afraid it still doesn't do enough.

Feels bad man.

>>9632570
Surprised you brought this up since I've had this same issue for months up until today.
At the gas station on my way to work I picked up one of these bad boys.
2 hours after eating I had a full on world class colon flush but solid bowell movement for the first time in months.
There's also a Tijuana Mama one that's hotter, but the pleb gas station didn't have them.

>>9632604
I have 16 empty bottles in my room. Does that count?

>>9632631
>this flushed your colon
Seriously? I used to eat those when I was a kid, but even then they weren't that special.

>>9632632
I guess. I'm just tidying up my apartment and realized I had two empty cans in my medicine cabinet and three sitting on top of my toilet. I was curious if other anons here also had a tendency to stuff empty cans wherever they are when they are done drinking them. Might say more about how much of a slob I am, really.

>>9632570
I don't remember. I spend a ton on toilet paper.

>>9632604
2 in bedroom, a week old
I'm trying to keep it together here

>>9632604
8 beer cans in my room
7 in the kitchen
3-4 empty liquor bottles on the stove

>>9632604
I live in a building with communal bathrooms, so none? But there are 7 empty handles and 5 empty fifths on my floor..

I am a currently a NEET and USUALLY limit my drinking to one "night" per week (sometimes twice). By night I mean: I start drinking at a time and don't stop drinking until several hours pass that time the next day (don't sleep). For instance, I started drinking at 2 P.M. yesterday for Halloween and am still drinking at 8:30 P.M. now. Jim Beam (Honey THEN Maple THEN APPLE) used to be my thing before I got laid off. I then started exploring things in a similar price range and found that I love Brandy; I ended up finding myself easily drinking it straight out the bottle instead of mixing like I did with Whiskey. Now I am trying to be "responsible" by going cheap and only drinking Taaka vodka.

I am not an alcoholic, right?
I don't think so.

>>9632700
You must know the golden rule. If you have to ask, you are.

Calypso Spiced Rum is $12.50 for the handle and tastes as good as Captain Morgan. Hell, I'd say it mixes better. It has been my mainstay for several years now. Try the bottom shelf sometime, fellow anons.

>>9632700
>started drinking at 2 P.M. yesterday for Halloween and am still drinking at 8:30 P.M. now

normal people pass out sometime during the night and then wake up for the hungover
you're definitely a weirdo alcoholic

>>9632709
>tastes as good as Captain Morgan

what an achievement
good tasting rum is relatively much more higher priced than, lets say, whiskey
if you go bottom shelf never go rum or gin, probably vodka is your safest choice

>>9632712
Drunkedness makes me feel hype and want to play vidya games and drink more. I don't want the party in my head to stop... then I wake up not remembering even laying down like 12 hours later... and I'll eat and stay up for 4 hours and probably go asleep again for another 7 or so. I think I have a healthy relationship with alcohol.

>>9632721
This is a fella who migrated from Old Crow, so I know low-end whiskey. To be fair, Crow keeps its flavor, if that's your jive. But Calypso and cola is the easiest and cheapest drinking I can imagine.

>>9632647
100%. Believe me, digestive systems work much differently as adults than they do for kids.
This is amplified 10 times over for those posting in these threads.
Give it a try if you don't believe me, but I think you'll be surprised what can be done with one of these for a dollar and change.

I used to drink 12 beers in a night when I was a beekeeper. I moved across the country and drank a lot alone to quell the feelings of my loneliness and poverty. I'm much happier now though, I moved in with a friend, got a new job, started lifting, and now drink about six beers max every other week.

>>9632604
none
but my record for the whole house was something like 185, all just sittting out on the floor and counters and everywhere
the cops showed up to do a welfare check that day
it was four or five full garbage bags to get rid of them all
>>9632648
three years after my life went to shit and i stopped hiding empties, i still find them sometimes
>>9632654
goddamn me too
who could have thought just paper could eat up so much of a person's budget

that first swig after a long day

>>9632623
fucks sake lad whens the last time you ate something green?

>>9632768
grats man. im trying to get to that point myself. its weird how doable the 12 pack a night is.

>>9632721
bottom tier gin taste the same as tanqueray

>>9632856
Fuck, fuck, fuck. That description nailed me precisely. I am not going to drink again...


...until Friday.

>>9632521
Read, clean the house, exercise, practice that thing you always wanted to learn.
Sobriety is super fucking boring after spending so many years fucked up, so you just gotta double down on whatever youre doing.

>>9632856
That guy must've been an alcoholic at some point, Nailed it all on the head.

Especially the getting stimulated from a few drinks instead of tired

>>9632450
I drink London Dock >>9626238
40% gin doesn't scare me...

Who else "drunkorexic"?

5"5' 98lbs (d-don't call me fat, I know....) and like most of the calories I injest are from alcohol. Idk what to do about it at this point because I can't eat and I can't stay sober because that's the one area I have no self control. My ex's mom just left me a pathetic sobbing voicemail blaming my issues for him dropping out of college/calling me an evil bitch and I'm

Well I'm polishing off a bottle of vodka (less calories desu)

This isn't your blog you dumb bitch. Women can't be alcoholics because you have no real problems that can't be solved by flashing your tits.

>>9633140
Enjoy your wet brain.

Does this sound like fun?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korsakoff%27s_syndrome

You need to eat at least one meal a day, and take your vitamins. Alcoholism on its own is damaging enough. Alcoholism coupled with malnutrition is what kills you, sooner rather than later.

>>9633154

ok fat permavigrin if you really wanted to see my shriveled double A titties you could have just asked, i am a massive whore.

>>9633174
Go live life on easy mode and pretend you have an eating and drinking problem like you are in high school

>>9633167

Surviving off of ensure and vodka has worked so far but thank you.

>>9632521
I had to want to quit drinking for me. Once I realized alcohol was ruining my life and i made the decision to quit for me it was pretty easy. The first few days were rough though.

>>9633174
so can we?

>>9633174
well lets see em then

>>9633217

Maybe if i stopped drinking i could be skinny ;; but i can't stop drinking

post vagoo

>>9633291

another reason i drink :(

At work. Dying to go home and destroy that bottle of bourbon while watching YouTube and playing videogames like a child. Being sober is worse than hell

Is it possible to drink without eating food? I drink once a week. The whole bottle in 1 go. So I'm not truly an alcoholic by reasonable standards. It's really hard to resist the call food. I'm getting a vape in the mail maybe the nicotine will suppress my urges?

Hell, it's just nice knowing there's other people out there like me.

>>9633457
Nope. Nicotine is the new thing you'll add to the list, along with your favorite cheap booze and whatever form of carb you occasionally throw down to prevent the bleeding stomach ulcers...

>>9632555
How much do you get paid?

Everyone passed out already :D

>>9633641
im sober so i couldn't sleep and came back on 4chan

drinking some voodoo ranger tonight. my fav beer. i'm not a fan of the recent beer price hike (all beers are about a dollar more expensive than they were a month ago). i really need to break down and start brewing beer myself cause fuck paying 10.99$ for a six pack of actually decent beer; that used to be what you'd pay for meme beers like dogfish head

>>9633641
I had homework... It regulated my drinking... I"m still here...

>>9633656
Sorry to hear that anon. Make sure you take care of it tomorrow. Also grab a gator or something with salt in it, you're gonna be shaking like a Quaker in the morning.

>>9633672
Watch out for teachers. They know if you living the darty.

>>9633675
i stopped drinking sunday, have only just finally been able to eat today
i think this is the last time i'm go-hahahahaha

Oh God I was only joking
Take them back

Why are these threads always polluted with 20 something normiecaholics who think it's cool cause they saw it on scrubs or house or something? It's like some dumb form of humble bragging or some shit.

>>9632437
>General

>>9633705
It's like the internet has a few different types of people on it or something

>>9633719
I asked about these threads specifically you mongoloid. Not about the entire internet.

>>9633681
Nah, luckily the morning snoot of coca deflects that.

Also, I'm 27 with a full time job when I don't have class, the teachers' are dipshits who try to tell me they know more about the field that I'm literally working in, and dismiss my realtalk about what they should be teaching instead. Fuck the fuck out of them.

>>9633705
yeah nothing about what the quoted sounded "normie" to me

>>9633705
Oldfag (42), work full time, cook and slam a bottle every night. How old are you Sonny Jim, and what's your sob story?

>>9633729
Bottoms up my friend. Raising a double shot of cheap vodka to you!

>>9633749
Will have a shitty light beer for you!

(by the way Coors or Busch light --or insert whatever the fuck you want crappy light lager, lets you have a drink in your hand all day without getting ass-over-kettle fuckwasted)

>>9633718
why do you do this in every thread?

>>9633760
Vodka and Monster Import. Enough caffeine, no digestion problems. Our cans say only one per day (Oldfag Skippy here), yours say 3. As long as I'm not going over 1000mg/day, I'm good.

And dude... Coors light? In the metal can? I'd rather drink PBR.

Really, the cheap vodka plastic handle (13.99 here) is the bottom of the line. Highest etoh by volume at the lowest cost. I buy two at a time so I will only need to ride the bus once a week.

>>9633815
eyyyy


Me too.

I buy 2 or 3 handles of popov at once (only 14.99 a handle)

The joys of light beer, when you don't give a fuck anymore about the taste, is that they're 2/3 of a real beer. So drink two, get one free.

>(of course, not in price, but if you just want a goddamn beer in your hand the entire day. inherent-regulation)

And Rip-Its are the go-to bottom shelf energy drink over here, same as the military overseas.

>>9633819
I buy Ruby (Rubinoff) and carry them home in a backpack so no one can see. It takes a week to ten days to suck them down. And I like it. I just don't care anymore, I just want the etoh.

>>9633815
>>9633819
You guys have it so good. Best I can get here is $316 for 12 (buy by the case). But that's because I'm a regular. When I visited burgerland, all I drunk was tequila cos it's half the price of here, currency conversion included

>>9633839
Of where?

>>9633815
>>9633819
>>9633824
>>9633837
You guys buying from CVS? Had the best prices when I was there

>>9633839
It's just raw alcohol. It's doesn't really feel good. But I have to admit, I'm glad someone is jealous.

>>9633847
Whatttt lol


No man lol, CVS is expensive....It's like 3 dollars more per handle

Walmart is where I go, But Costco is probably the cheapest all around.

>>9633847
Nah. Buying from a local Asian liquor store on the bus route.

Gotta cook for the girls, have to bail. Have a blast and eat the vitamins.

>>9633852
>>9633853

I hate you guys. Have fun, gtg

Damn. My life is better than someone's. Didn't expect that.

I live in Wisconsin. Every gas station has beer, and pretty much everyone sells at the lowest legal minimum (stupid law), but our Tavern League is a powerful lobbyist who keeps our 30-racks at $15, or $10 for bottom-shelf. I feel bad for Canadians.

>>9633656
I walked 17k this night from the jitters. Drying out is a bitch.

Cold turkey can cause serious kindling effects.

I know m8, I’m on a beer taper. But even then I’m anxious as fuck and restless.

>get social security benefits every month because of auto-immune disease
>paired with crippling anxiety
>haven't seen a doctor in months
>fear it will end
>stopped smoking weed because paranoid even though it's the best pain reliever with no side-effects or withdrawal
>never EVER EVER fucking taking benzos or pain pills again
fck why isn't weed legal everywhere yet? i would move if i could. so god damn stupid.

>>9633898
i wish i could manage a beer taper, but it has to be cold turkey or nothing or ill just get wasted again
and yes the days of no hangovers were awesome, now i almost need hospitalization every time

>>9633901
Well good luck, go wear yourself out with physical activity so you can try to get some decent sleep.


>or just take a benzo

>>9633910
Fuck, that's rough. Disregarding the never doing it, in retrospect would you recommend a 20-something to stay moderately buzzed or keep trying to get clean? Or any other shit you would've wished you told your 20-something year old self?

>>9633916
i'd just stay moderately buzzed. the first time i tried to get clean is when shit went off the rails, daydrinking, quit job
though i would just get home from work and drink until i passed out usually so idk
i wish i would have never started doing it any time but fri-sat. or just not started in the first place and fucked my brain

>>9633925
Alright, gleaming from your drunk-addled brain-spew, stay moderately buzzed (preferably don't drink in the first place), try not to go overboard, but taper instead of treating your catharsis to as much sobriety as drunkenness.

>>9632521
even "sober" people do
prescription drugs
play vidya
binge eat
binge watch netflix
watch their phones as much as possible
that's about it

>>9633665
voodoo ranger is the peak of gas station beer. A 6 pack could get me comfortably drunk and it tastes pretty great. plus skeletons

>>9632594
truth

>pee has smelled like ammonia for the last month or so


I guess this is related to the liver?

My doctor told me about 6 years ago I had scarring on my liver.

7:21pm on my 4th day sober.

Unlike when I usually try and quit I haven't really been all that hungry. Usually I eat like crazy when I abstain from booze but the last few days I just haven't been hungry. Right now my stomach is growling at me and I don't even know what I want to eat.

>>9633815
This nigga knows alchonomics.
I have an aversion to straight up popov because I drank so much of that shit in high school/college.

Now I go for the burnettes flavored vodka, its only 35% but goes down smooth and is 12 bucks for a handle at my local packie.

yes I know I'm a pussy.

Anyone ever try using Kratom to curb alcohol use? I was pretty bad for a while but I started taking Kratom and have basically stopped drinking. If you get addicted to it alcohol actually makes you pretty sick but Kratom withdrawal is way easier to deal with than booze. Most of my friends say they don't feel anything from the Kratom but I love the shit.

>>9634663
I ended up just taking it with alcohol.

>>9634685
That's how I was with weed. "Oh, if I smoke, I can stop drinking!" Six hours later, I'm cross fading.

how do you drink lots all day, day after day and not get sick?

>>9634663
The only use for kratom is for surviving opiate withdrawals

>>9633911
Thanks. I just walkedfor hours until I passed out. Woke up in a bed so soaked with sweat it looked like I spilles my water bottle.

Over the hump of it now though it feels like, I’ve only been back on the sauce for about two weeks.

Hanging out with another drunk was a mistake.

I feel ya, Elmo.

Is my chest supposed to hurt after a night of heavy drinking?

>>9635175
No
Your chest is never supposed to hurt

>>9635175

Acid reflux?

>>9635175
Do you smoke when you drink?

>>9635175
Heartburn is one of the hardest parts about being an alcoholic.
I'm surprised it's so unknown by most too, although I suppose most people never drink enough to be impacted by it.

>>9635226
Center-Center left, around the thorax. Roughly same level as nipples. Its fine on the night itself, day afterwards it feels like my heart is having some trouble. Dunno if it's actually that, though.

>>9635229
Nope. Its just me and half a bottle of vodka.

>>9635240
I never had heartburn even one time in my entire life until I started hitting the bottle hard. Then I started going for the tums so I could keep drinking more.

The lack of heartburn was one of my favorite things about finally getting off the addiction and back to consuming alcohol in a sane manner.

Anybody else drink at work? I work overnight by myself so it’s pretty easy but also work 2nd shift. About to go in and work with a girl iI don’t know, manager told me she is hot so gonna take few shots for the anxiety.

>>9635245
>half a bottle of vodka.
Weak

>>9635259
Yeah I got fired for it
People can smell it

>>9635257
I only get heartburn when I don't drink enough. If I go to bed half drunk, I wake up four hours later in real pain. If I go to bed all drunk, I wake up seven hours later, woozy, but not with that horrible burning throat and stomach.

>>9635257
I worked second or third shift most of my life. Now I never drink before midnight.

>>9634663
I use it to congeal my shit. Beats pissing out your ass 6+ times a day. Works great.

>>9635240
Are you me?

My heart burn is nuts

T. Ethiopialad

>>9635281
Try omeprazole. My acid reflux is insane unless I take something.

>>9635257
It got to the stage it felt like I was breathing fire. I'd be furiously sculling baking soda and water and munching handfuls of gaviscon just to keep it at bay so I could keep drinking without feeling like I was pouring acid down my throat.

>>9635281
Every alcoholic seems to know about it but before I became one I was clueless it could even be a problem.

>>9635245
My heart always races after a bender to the point where I get pretty scared.

>get cheap bottle of wine
>put in freezer to cool

Cut back on the booze there buddy, couldn't hurt

fucking hate everything. guess I'll drink more

>drink half a handle of 40% vodka daily
>somehow land a job manufacturing PCBs
>doing so well I get certified in multiple departments
>everyone asking me when I'm going to apply for a lead position
How the fuck did I manage this? I think it's the bike ride into work, it sobers me up enough and since my shift is pretty barren no one notices the shakes

>>9635644
Now start cutting back before you fuck it up.

Back to day 0 again. I was going to get through it then shit hit the fan, and I have no self control. At this point I'll be single and jobless. My goal was to just go the weekdays without drinking, and I fucked that up 3x this week
>>9635305
Wine slushies are great, especially in the summer. Wish I discovered them sooner
>>9635644
A lot of activity and concentration sure helps to sober someone up. It still affect you of course, but it will make you appear more competent than if you were to go in plastered.
>>9635259
I drink at uni. Sure does help with the anxiety. I feel like I even do better at tests and exams if I had a shot right beforehand.
>>9634988
If you drink too much you always get sick. A lot of people manage with hair of the dog though. But then that's a slippery slope to frequenting these threads.

>>9632437
>>Lost your job and running low on money edition
I've been drinking at work every day for the past 5 months, its the only way I can cope. I can't get unemployment if I straight up quit so I just drink and do my duties to a minimum hoping they will fire me so I can be a NEET while looking for a new job, but somehow I'm still the most productive on the team. Need to slack more I guess.

>>9635684
Nah, it's destiny, I'll burn out some time and fuck it all up

>>9632521
How did you get a Xanax script? I haven't been to a doctor in like 8 years I'm 26. I get spare Xanax sometimes from my weed dealer and it helps so much with my anxiety, they only thing I hate is it kills my memory.
Do I just tell the doctor I get anxiety going to the grocery store or something? Can I just straight up ask for it?

>>9635817
Don't directly ask for it, it makes you look like a druggie.

Tell them you feel anxious etc. hopefully they'll prescribe you some sort of benzo(instead of some new-age no-fun drug), if it's not xanax, just hit them up 2-3 months later and say you've had to take a few more to get through the day or whatever and they'll up the dose or ask ffor an alternative.

That's how I did it, but it was valium for me and I ended up getting a script for 60x 10mg pills a month.

Just know your limits because it really fucked me up.

>>9633154
My mom drank while pregnant with me and for that she should've been executed or forced to get an abortion. Laws are retarded.

>>9633140
Yes that is me. I'm 6ft will spend so much money and work to get up to 160lbs and then a two day bender will leave me at 139lbs. Coming off one of those right now. I am so done with it. Was at work wasted. Never ever again.

>>9632648
I thought everyone did that. It's a perfectly cromulent method of discarding an empty.

>>9632437
2 days sober and I'm bored as fuck already.
Just reading about food and trying to focus on cooking healthy stuff to pass the time.
The worst thing? TV and film.
Madmen? Out the window. Archer? Not a chance. Always Sunny? Nope.
I'd be sat here watching those with a bottle of whisky usually.

>>9636151
You need a hobby. One in which you're actively involved, not just sitting there in front of a screen.

>>9633150
It took me a minute into the video for your comment to hit and I let out a blurt of a laugh.

I don't 'get' alcoholism, especially not if you drink because of financial stress.

I've been a NEET for about 6 years (dropped out of college at 21, 27 now) and the last thing I'd do is spend a lot of money on liquor.

Just get on meds, especially if you're European and it's free, it's what I do.

>>9636328
Because, like masturbation, doing drugs mashes the pleasure buttons of your brain, anon.

>>9636346
Well I do masturbate a lot..

>>9636328
I'm off the booze now (thankfully), but I did get into drinking because of financial stress, so I can explain this well.

What got me hitting the bottle were problems with my business. I owned a machine shop, and I was making a lot of money doing work for the oilfield industry. I had recently invested about a half-million dollars in additional machinery. Then after a few months the price of oil plummeted. When that happens there is less drilling, so less demand for my services. I had to lay off 6 employees and soon I couldn't keep up payments on my machinery and rent. That's stressed me out into drinking.

Now you're right--booze does cost money. But the amount of money I spent on booze wouldn't have even made a dent in my financial problems. When you're worried about expenses that cost tens of thousands a month, buying a few $15 bottles of vodka a week wouldn't even make a dent.

>>9636377
That makes sense, I've never had that kind of money nor will I so it's hard for me to imagine.

>>9632437
5am, still not drunk, work start at 10am,at least Asia has great public transport.

>>9633167

That is the symptom that scared me into quitting drinking, I think it means your kidneys are struggling and you need to give them a break.

>>9636718
it happens to me when my blood sugar has been high for too long, I believe kidneys are it, however it could have something to do with ketones, a group of chemicals which contains acetone among them. if it is related to ketones then it's most likely your liver that's struggling

>>9636844
or rather if I go too long without insulin, which starts up ketosis, because the cells can't get glucose.
do yourself a service and go to a pharmacy and buy ketone sticks, could save your life

>>9636845
okay joe rogan

>>9636849
>Ketoacidosis is most common in untreated type 1 diabetes mellitus, when the liver breaks down fat and proteins in response to a perceived need for respiratory substrate. Prolonged alcoholism may lead to alcoholic ketoacidosis.

>Ketoacidosis can be smelled on a person's breath. This is due to acetone, a direct by-product of the spontaneous decomposition of acetoacetic acid. It is often described as smelling like fruit or nail polish remover.[2] >Ketosis may also give off an odor, but the odor is usually more subtle due to lower concentrations of acetone.
this shit is fatal, stop meming me

Im up to a half bottle a day now, the tolerance is real...

>>9636966
At my worst I was at a fifth to a liter a day as a "baseline," so I was doing that ontop of drinking a couple of beers after my shift or going out at night. Did all that and still didn't wake up with the shakes and shit. I just had some really weird emotional rubberbanding during the first week when I stopped drinking.

Tolerance builds up quick and you can endure a lot of fucking alcohol when you're young. Good luck, man.

>>9637003
Im thinking of ordering a bunch of kratom. I did that last year and actually went about a month sober.

Kidney stones werent enough to stop my drinking so I dont know what will. My biggest fear is going jaundice and my mom finding out ive been stinking drunk for the last 5 years.

i forgot my bank card and pencil somewhere (i think they slipped out of my coat when i went to some dudes house on halloween) and now im super agitated because this means i cant buy beer or draw furry porn anymore

>>9632856
Fuck. Didn't know alcohol was supposed to make you sleepy

Bought my mom a bottle of wine for helping me clean up my room ( it was really bad and not a one person job). She saw what I bought for myself and said "wow that's a lot".

I really thought I was holding back, I only bought 15 473ml cans for myself.

>>9637064
don't do like me, block your card now and order a new one

>>9637193
its a debit card and requires a pin and doesnt have tap enabled

im more worried about the pencil 2bh, it was a sick-ass drafting pencil that my dad used for years that now i use, that thing is a survivor, i dont want to lose the closest thing to a family heirloom i own

>>9637199
>doesnt have tap enabled
so it can't be used online?

>>9637208
HA HA HAHA ah aH AH aha ha aHA HA HAH AH Aha haHAHAHAHAHAHA

it is a massive rigamarole to enable interac online and only like two places accept it anyway

>>9632654
Get a squatty potty, or just use something to push your feet up when you're taking a shit. Comes out easier and the improved angle doesn't get liquid shit everywhere, reducing the need for TP.

Since yesterday I have trouble falling asleep at the right times since my mind is constantly thinking about alcohol. How do I turn those thoughts off beside having a drink?

i finally feel normal and can eat like usual after 4 days of sobriety
ofc now i feel like drinking again

>>9637235
have a couple drinks?

>>9637243
I after this sober period I think one bender per month is a goal to work with, maybe for a few years to make sure I work out my habit

>>9637208
I also have a non-tap debit card. I have to buy prepaid visas from 7-11 to buy anything online. My credit is non-existant so I can't get a credit card at all.

>That face when you start shaking by 5 pm
>stop for a bottle on the way home from work

I have to atop giving in.....

>>9637300
yeah same. i dont buy anything online anyway though so i dont really give a shit. about the only thing online i could want are dragon dildos and steam games but both of those accept paypal

>>9637243
i've been sober for 4 days too now

at this point i get the "this feels good, maybe i'll start doing things now, get a grip of my life and stop drinking for good" feel which usually lasts for a week or two before i realize that the idea of doing things makes me fucking anxious so i just sit on the computer bored all day until i start drinking again

repeated this for a couple of years now

>>9637293
I do one or two benders a month just because that's all I can afford to do. oddly though I don't have any cravings when I'm broke, but gimme some money and watch me go

>>9637300
I dont see how having tap disabled would effect online purchases. Also most debit cards I see these days have a Visa logo on them and are accepted on ant site that takes Visa which is all of them.

Unless you are in the usa which I understand is years behind on this kind of stuff

I'm drinking and want to chat to people but this thread is too slow.

>>9637391
whatcu wanna chat about anon?

>>9637339
Most countries use "debit card" to mean a bank access card. it draws straight from your liquid funds in your checquing account, and is generally not accepted by online retailers because the numbers and protocols are bank-specific and are simply too much of a pain in the ass to make it worth working with, especially when PayPal and credit cards exist.

>Also most debit cards I see these days have a Visa logo on them
mine does too but it doesn't work. it advertises that it CAN be upgraded to be usable online, but many countries have different ways of doing this and they're all shit and awful compared to just taking out an actual Visa card. paying with your damn mobile phone is easier and more common, it seems

where I live, Canada, we use "Interac Online" and it's shit for anything other than personal money transfers. Neither Amazon, eBay, nor Bad Dragon or Exotic Erotics accept it, so it's worthless imo.

>>9637418
Oh man that brings back memories. The liquor stores near me stopped carrying black bull because it attracted crackheads and other homeless people.

I'm drinking steamwhistle and strongbow. It's -11C here today and there's snow everywhere.

>>9637433
>The liquor stores near me stopped carrying black bull because it attracted crackheads and other homeless people.
i think the depanneur i go to for booze now only started carrying it specifically to appeal to the native demographic

colt 45 got popular here too but they were also one of the first places to carry it that i saw, and still the only ones that have the almost-40s of it

> It's -11C here today and there's snow everywhere.
montreal has been warm and rainy for the past week or so. i dont bike anymore so i wouldnt mind some snow. actually even if i still biked, snow owuld be more fun than rain

>>9637433

been drinking at the very minimum 8 beers a night for at least 2 years without a night off, some nights more, but always an 8 pack at least.

i got lazy with my cans for a few months and some family stopped in on me unexpectedly and gave me a hard time about all the empties.
(i live alone and drink 80+ beer a week) as well as smoking an 1/8 of weed every 1-2 days

what do you guys think? am i hurting myself? i'm 26

>literally who

>>9637496
idk every party ive been to lasts about 6 hours but any given guest lasts about 3 before either getting tired or going off to bang some slag. same for bars, i find people dont really stay longer than 3 hours in a sitting. they at least go home entirely or have a meal somewhere and then come back if they really in it for the long haul

longer than that is reserved for dedicated outings at the pub and even then seems motivited by missing the last bus more often than a genuine unwillingness to cut the party short

>>9636696
phew, I had that last night for the first time in a while. Went on a hard three day binge, my longest in quite some time. Ended up getting withdrawals and last night, after having not drank for 2 days, I was staying at my parents house to visit and was sleeping naked in the guest bed when all of a sudden I startled awake with a light misting of sweat all over my body. It sucked, but luckily I wasn't getting sleep paralysis or anything like that...I think I'll be fine tonight...although earlier I suddenly felt very hot and a little itchy on my face. Not sure if that was related to being a few days sober or what. But yea...tonight will definitely be better.

That would definitely do the trick, haha. But if we're all being honest what he REALLY misses and what his body really misses is the intoxicating effect that comes after it. Nobody ever really enjoys the burn, or the taste even, of alcohol, it's just that your brain's pleasure center is getting hit directly afterwards

Drinking gin and making enchiladas. Any fun tips (for not being hung over or enchiladas)

>>9637500
well I drink it over 4 hours

>>9637003
How long had you been drinking at that level for? I'm just surprised you had no serious withdrawal symptoms.

Does anyone else feel like their skin is crawling when they're hungover? I can deal with any other symptoms except that nasty full body feeling. Drives me to drink to get rid of it.

Standard proof, versus High proof.

Which is less likely to kill me faster over a long period of constant daily drinking? (1 year +)

>>9637524
im canadian. ive heard from my friend who went to vermont a lot that it's quite the opposite in the US -- people drink light beer, but constantly. in Canada, we drink hard and fast, it's a night drinking thing. it's just a different culture, beer to americans is something to drink for its refreshment qualities, beer to Canadians is drunk because you are going to party down and if you weren't partying down you'd be sucking milk instead

>>9637534
>Any fun tips for not being hung over
drink water, or at least watery drinks like beer and mixers. eat a good solid meal full of bread and grease. not to soak up the alcohol, just to have a full belly rich in the minerals you're going to sweat out in your sleep
alternatively, slam some gatorade or other sports drink before bed

payday is tomorrow, gonna get smashed at the bar, then walk home in the cold. I'll go through a good three or four buckets in a three hour period

>>9637565
Buckets of what?

>>9637565
Why not just buy a bottle on the cheap and get shitfaced in the comfort of your own home?

>>9637567

>>9637585

How the fuck can you make wine out of that? Where's the sugar?

>>9637644
It is a Country Wine. You add sugar or honey among other ingredients.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fruit_wine#Dandelion_wine

>>9637650
So it's bullshit. It's just fermented cane sugar with petals for colour.
Fraudulent and homosexual

>>9637665
Which country wine touched you, anon? You can point him out, he can't see you here.

>>9637681
Real wine uses just the sugar of the fruit for fermenting. Adding cane sugar defeats the entire purpose

>>9637686
That's why these are called country wines or fruit wines. That's how adjectives are used.

>>9637700
The adjective I choose is "bullshit"

I'm just also an opinionated one.
And I hate on a basal level shit with pretenses of being shit it isn't. "Country wine" isn't wine. It's fermented sugar that thinks its better than it is.
It's like calling margarine "city butter"

>>9637754
I really can't help you there since that is what society chooses to call it. I know one thing though. I'm a cheap drunk and one glass has hammered me.

Nah fuck that. You're exactly you. You're more you than you. In vino veritas, motherfucker.

I work at a liquor store. I'm that overly friendly lady that knows way too much about beer. Just know, I don't judge you guys when you buy a couple handles a few times a week. I really don't. I just have a background worry. I want you to be ok, whatever that means for you. You're fine. Please don't get defensive or shitty when I'm ringing you up for the second time that day.

>>9637823
I must be a cunt that's an OK guy deep down then, because when I drink I become more empathic, give a lot of myself and value the friends I have even more than when I'm sober

>>9637924
>the second time that day.
wtf kind of in-denial scrub doesnt go for a proper bottle in the first place?

I beat my liquor addiction by drinking coffee in the morning times and being productive enough to sort my life out. Feels good man.

>>9637924
I worry about people recognizing me when I go to the liquor store once a week for my bit of rum. They have points cards now and I don't want to get one because I'd hate to have someone go "Haha, wow, you got so many points!" or something. This is a shameful thing I'm doing and I don't need reminding.

Also, my mum met my pop while she worked at a liquor store.
My dad was some private offduty with the lads coming to pick up some booze for the weekend. His buddy knocked over a giant stand of beer and ran out of the store. My dad and stayed help the clerk, my mom, and clean up. He got a date out of it. And now I'm here

>tfw have been skipping work
>tfw bosses literally came to my house, in uniform, to have a chat
>they said the halloween party is coming up this weekend and I should go even if I'm not ready to return to work from whatever is making me not readily leave my house

should i go? there'll be booze and stuff but i feel like i'll be coaxed into a snafu of "caring" that will make me very uncomfortable. that's why i havent gone back in the first place -- skip one day, you have to skip the next, because they'll ask questions. two days become a week and before you know it you're completely isolated because you know all that will happen when you go back is people will make you uncomfortable by asking all kinds of hard questions

>>9632437

>altering something makes it more of what it is

Nonsensical logic, but also scientifically silly and spoken like an amateur drinker.

>>9638128
There's something to be said for lowering of inhibition but inhibition is part of you and the rest drinking does to you moves away from the self

>>9638088
go get attacked with a bike lock. all you have to do is be white. some medications they serve at the ER are made with alcohol. they're about 128,754$/dose though

>>9638153
Removing inhibition reveals your true self.
It's not only alcohol that inhibits inhibition. If you're an aggressive asshole while drunk, then all it takes is a bad day or a poor night's sleep to make you act like that while sober.
It's like a pie. If it's shit under the crust, then it was shit the entire time

>>9638153
>>9638167
Alcohol does a lot more than merely remove inhibition.

There is no true authentic self that was hiding and gets exposed by drinking, that's a silly folk psychology meme. There is a brain with certain tendencies, and adding ethanol to that brain will make that brain function differently in all kinds of ways. But it does not make it 'more of itself' in a straightforward way.

>>9638088

>neurotrash
no one says alcohol makes you "more yourself" -- the point is that alcohol makes you dumb, which removes some inhibitions. you are not "more yourself", but you do the things you'd like to do either way with less shame and more gusto.

>>9632437
tfw not al/ck/holism but probably should be since I am in the same place as you OP.

Alcohol is expensive up here, I am thinking about brewing my own.

>>9638167
Inhibition is a realisation that something should be suppressed in some sense. That's part of a self as much as what's underneath

>>9638203
>>9638214
That's a total load of shit and we all know it.
I think it does make you "more yourself"
What alcohol does is make your brain less functional. Shit is slower and less effective.
And the result? Stripping away conditioning and inhibition.
For example, a straight man does not become gay while drunk unless he was already gay while sober. It's not like "whoops, it's just the booze guys, it MADE me suck cock".
Same thing with everything else. The brain is a complex machine with many layers. Alcohol strips those layers away until it just stops working and you black out.
You can't instantly play the piano despite never having touched one before.
Alcohol does not insert inclinations, abilities, or desires.
When you're drunk there is NOTHING NEW to your behaviours. You are always you. And the you you are when there's nothing holding you back is the most you you can be.
If you're a weepy mess when you drink, it's because you're a sadfuck holding together when you're sober.
If you're an aggressive asshole, you're an angry cunt who doesn't attack people because he's inhibited

>>9638223
That's partially true.
The important thing is that inhibitions are learned. If you never learned those suppressive techniques, then you're be like that all the time. And that makes you a cunt deep inside.

Like I said before, alcohol is just one of the many ways to loosen inhibition. Maybe you had a bad night's sleep, whoops now your'e acting like a total jerk. Just like you were drunk

>>9638230
somewhat agree, but the exception would be when you're on blackout autopilot. Then the lights are on, but no one's home.

>>9638214
Alcohol does not merely remove inhibitations, it also makes you generally cognitively impaired. So it's not only doing something you would want to do but normally would not do, but acting upon false premises because your estimation of situations is flawed.

A simply example would be that you might get into an argument with a guy for something he implied, and what he implied is something you would also get in an argument over while sober, but you misunderstood his implications in the first place. So you're not more of a cunt, you just mistakenly thought he was a cunt.

People are different people while drunk because they are in a different world, not because they're in the same world but merely with less impulse control.

>>9638241
Nope, still you. What's turned off is short term memory. It's like typing on the keynoard when the computer is turned off. You can still only type what you are and what you know, but there is no retention of it. It is a "sobering" fact that something like half the people in jail can't remember what they did to get them there. But they still did it. That's why blacking out is not a defense.

>>9638230
See: >>9638259

Maybe someone becomes aggressive because he experiences others as more aggressive. If his perception is altered it's not merely a question of inhibition.

If your friend eats a bunch of datura and wants to kill you because he thinks you're a demon it's not that he wanted to kill you all along but merely controlled himself, but that you appear different to him.

This also happens with alcohol, although in more subtle ways. Hell, just consider beer googles. You don't just want to fuck ugly girls when you're drunk, you actually think ugly girls are more beautiful than they are. You still want to fuck beautiful girls, you just can't competently discern them.

>>9638259
That's the thing. If you fight someone because you don't like them, no matter how much of a cunt you thought they were, then you are the cunt.
Besides, good people understand that they're drunk and take that into account. Of course, like you said, the drunken brain is pretty shit at its job, but it's still mostly there.
I'm three sheets to the fucking wind now and I'm just like I am when I'm sober. Except more willing to opine and searing every other world.

You strip away everything from a good person, then they're still a good person. Right down to the point where they pass the fuck out.
If a man is throwing punches after half a dozen beers, then he was just a fucking asshole the entire time and the only thing stopping him was just skin deep.

You can't compared datura to alcohol.
Your brain is a gigantic game of telephone. One neuron talks to another neuron and so forth and so forth. What alcohol does is put cotton between those neurons in a progressive fashion. When you're shitfaced, your neurons can't hear shit from each other. The little voice that says "DO NOT" steadily becomes "DONO'" to "D'NO" to "D'O"

Psychoactive shit isn't about degrading signal connection it's about manipulating it.
Totally different

>>9638267
Nope, not true at all. If I fall asleep shithammered and someone wakes me, I'm basically a narcoleptic sleepwalker.

Fell asleep in the passenger seat of my brother's truck after watching his band play at a bar. He put in the key to warm it up, and then tapped on the window to see if I was alright (before going back inside and getting his drums to load up). I must've took that as a note that someone wanted me to move, and drive this truck I've drove tens of times before. One smashed truck and three lamp posts later I wake up handcuffed to a bench in the cop-shop. My intentions were never to drive that night, and yet I did for absolutely no reason.

Hence the exception.

>That's the thing. If you fight someone because you don't like them, no matter how much of a cunt you thought they were, then you are the cunt.
If you get into an argument with someone because you thought he said something cunty that does not make you a cunt though, just mistaken. I don't think it's cunty to argue with a cunt.

I don't disagree with the idea you're putting forward, I think you're just severely underestimating how the cognitive impairment contributes to misunderstandings.

38 hours sober lads.

Coming up on 2 days!


This is the longest I've gone in 3+ years without drinking. I usually drink vodka the entire time I'm awake every day (I work from home).


POURING sweat, Can't sleep, Anxious as fuck, heart is POUNDING, Irritable.

I took some triazolam to help not have seizures, Made me a bit sleepy without being able to fall asleep because I'm sweating so much but did nothing for the anxiety.

lel i remember trying to escape the hospital because i thought they were trying to brainwash me, trying to assault a peace officer because he was chasing me

>>9638303
Also not hungry at all.


In 2 days I've had 1 chicken soft taco from taco bell.

An I have had diarrhea for the last 30 hours, Almost shit the bed today trying to fart.

>>9638303
>>9638308
keep going buds it gets better
first 2 days are the worst

>>9638308
eat something high in fiber, drink some water, since you're losing a lot via diarrhea, occupy yourself with something to do, be it videogames or whatever

>>9638299
From your point of view, I am too cognitively impaired now to comprehend what you're saying, right?

Ok, that was a bit cunty there.
Look, I understand your premise. You're saying that's it's normal to get all aggressive in a disagreement and disagreements are more common when you're drunk since understanding is more difficult because you're brain is all fucked.
I get that.

Here's what I'm saying. If your response to a disagreement is to be a jerk, then you're a jerk. A disagreement is no reason to be hostile. Short, maybe, but outright violent? Absolutely never.

On a related tangent, did any of you read the Foundation as a kid? I think it helped form the bedrock of who I am

>>9638296
I've been so far removed from my conventional cognition on just booze benders that I disagree desu.

Like thinking friends are impostors, seeing shadow people in the streets, having weird ideas about where I have to go and why, ending up in different towns, experiencing people saying things to me while they didn't say anything at all etc.

>>9638296
this is a terrible horrible example but the core of it is Not Wrong

psychoactives do change you, alcohol does not. alcohol clouds thinking and makes your internal arguments a bit hazy or underdveloped; psychoactives change your fundamental premises and arguments.

>>Lost your job and running low on money edition
Fuck, currently experiencing this feel. I suck at job hunting and have no motivation, so that doesn't help

>>9638320
Thanks

>>9638327
Thanks man.

I quit smoking shatter too because when I get too high I usually have a drink to ease the anxiety.

Just been reading on my phone and watching the news all day.

Hoping to go to Eastern State Penitentiary tomorrow for a tour If I'm still doing alright

>>9638303
Shit really fucking sucks, mate
But it gets easier once you pass Day 3.

Fill your time with bullshit like video games, like the other anon said. That helps. I like to read books when I'm feeling anxious.

Also, protip, and this applies for everyone, low sodium vegetable juice is a fucking tonic for what alcohol does to you. You want low sodium specifically because they replace sodium salt partially with potassium salt, and we need all that precious K to restore our nerves to full functioning. Low sodium vegetable juice as sodium, potassium, vitamins, and lots of fiber.
It'll fix you right up.

>>9638331
Sounds like you're fucking schizo mate, drunk or otherwise

>>9638339
Thanks m8, I'll get some in the morning!

>>9638343
I've only had it on hardcore benders with little to no sleep, so might just be alcohol induced psychosis and sleep deprivation hallucinations.

Never had anything spooky going on sober.

>>9638354
Just be aware of the possibility.
I know I have schizophrenia and various mental illnesses in my family. I know to be wary of some inclinations. And also of hallucinations.
Fuck hypnagogic hallucinations

>>9638329
I see your point, but I still think someone can be impaired to the point that they would respond to a situation violently because they misunderstood the situation and still be a good lad, because the situation they imagined to be true was one that would warrant violence from a decent person.

>>9638361
It could be. But I can be solid as a rock when I'm sober for months and when I get back on the sauce I start to feel myself becoming weird if I do it long enough.

I feel like I actually have a different personality in alcoholic mode where I don't just do things I would have wanted but not done when sober but actually do things my sober self doesn't even desire or agree with on any level.

>>9638363
I'll concede that to you.
I habitually drink alone so I haven't had my patience tried by drunk on drunk action. I'm also pretty prideful. So maybe I'd be tossing out fists. I don't think I'd do, but it's a possibility. I still feel that, even while drunk, I take most slights like water off a duck's back. It's not worth feeling anything about it. Though, maybe if I had a face in front of me mocking, I would think otherwise.

>>9638386
I think a lot of it often depends on group dynamics when people go out. People with loyalty to a mate that gets shoved because he stepped on the wrong guys shoes and escalate it from there and that kind of stuff.

Drinking alone is a lot less trouble desu.

>>9638401
I'd stand up for my mate if he got shoved, that's for sure, but I don't think I'd shove back. People are always irritating and provoking and generally just unpleasant. If someone being a cunt is all that provoked you to violence, then you'd never stop.

Anyways, we've seemed to have come to an agreement of sorts. Take a drink, mate. To health and all that shit

what's the patrician spelling of
whiskey/whisky

>>9638451
It depends on whether it's from Ireland or Scotland
If you're English, you can spell it any which way since they're both pretty much the same

>>9638424
>Anyways, we've seemed to have come to an agreement of sorts. Take a drink, mate. To health and all that shit
Pretty civil of us desu, feels good.

I’m freshly on the wagon though so I’ll just sip my water.

>>9638424
I won't leave you hanging. Sláinte!

Some nonphoneposter makeamew thread

>>9637946
I've had customers (almost always alone) come buy several bottles of bottom shelf gin and vodka, then come in later that day to buy more. It's kind of painful, just because they get defensive, even when I just want them to be fine. I can clean up a fifth of bourbon in a day ez, but I'm still curious how one could buy three fifths, then come back, by car, for more.

>>9637963
They see much, much worse. They don't care or judge. Really cute story, btw

>>9637975
You just have to do it. You have to get into the mindset of doing it without over thinking. It's how you adult.

>tfw got my car impounded due to my stupid alcoholism and depression
>tfw got lucky enough to not get arrested or get a DUI
I'm a fucking idiot. Didn't think of getting an Uber or anything. I need to stop this shit.

>>9638637
That's what I figure. I am at least coherent and try to make a relevant comment on the weather or something in the news or just something I see. I know they see people who are obviously in end stage alcoholism all the time, so they aren't wondering about me.

>>9638656
I just stopped driving about 6 months ago. I know my reflexes and executive abilities are compromised. I fucking hate the bus and it is going to be a long winter, but I want to kill myself, not other people. And just the other day when we were crossing the street, I got to grab an older lady by the coat and pull her out of the way of a speeding car. Because I don't drive, I saved a fucking life! Felt good, man.

>>9638717
Honestly driving fucking sucks and I had way too many close calls

>>9638739
And the cops are all over it, just like fucking sharks. It exposes you to too much. I can't wait for self driving cars. People are too slow and stupid to drive.

>These yeast strains enable a very rapid fermentation to full strength, in some cases in as little as three days (compared to several weeks required by traditional wine yeast strains). Such a short production time naturally does not allow the yeast to become lees. The introduction of turbo yeast reinforced the public's view of kilju as an easy method of procuring cheap alcohol.
where do I aquire

>>9638758
Amazon sells them. Distillers' yeast or something like that.
