Life What time is too early to start drinking ?

DumbHillbillies · 02-13-2010, 11:59 AM

I started at 11:00 am, vodka + pepsi and smoking cigars. Really just bored out of my mind and the GF is out of town so I thought I do some things that she would normally nag me over. What's the earliest you guys start drinking and what do you do when your significant other is out of town ?

I've always thought that a designated "start drinking" time was the dumbest shit I've ever heard. Quit checking the time, and start drinkin' if you want.

I usually need to be medically resuscitated at some point during her absence. thats why i carry a lifealert around with me at all times.

The correct answer is probably never, but I've never had endurance while drinking. I usually have a hard time drinking for more than 6 hours, primarily because I have a hard time having fewer than 3 drinks an hour.

If it's in front of me, I drink it. I don't nurse drinks.

No such thing as "too early." Unless you got really important shit to do. Like a job interview or something. In that case the asnwer is, it's too early to start drinking before you get the important shit done.

My wife is awesome. She never nags me about drinking. She's an enabler, if anything, and the one who taught me there was no such thing as "too early." When she's out of town, I usually watch LOST reruns and wish she was around...

Do game days count? 8 a.m.

As the old saying goes, it's 5 o'clock somewhere.

Make sure you're posting in about 4-5 hours. We need some drunk post hilarity... or at least incomprehensible posts.

Yeah, I've slowed down a litte ever since I woke up in the ER with a fractured jaw and 10 stiches. Three words, Cinco de Mayo. Apparently, I thought it was a good idea to run up and down parked cars. My dumbass took a header off of one. Don't remember any of that. I just remember taking my 10th tequila shot at the bar and then ER.

Does she have any sisters ?

Morning/midday buzzes are great. But pepsi & vodka?

kstater · 02-13-2010, 12:32 PM

The correct answer is after work.

No shit. That's what I was thinking when I read that. I'm a huge vodka fan and have had it a many a different ways, but never with Pepsi. WTF.

"Bob" Dobbs · 02-13-2010, 12:36 PM

That's almost as weird sounding as the scotch & milk that a buddy of mine used to drink.
