What is your drinking tolerance for alcohol?

I don't drink and never have. I'd probably be under the table after half a glass of wine because I haven't built up any kind of tolerance to it at all.

one martini, two martini, three martini, floor!!!!

I drank one time- with my brother and his friends. I tried it out. Nothing special. I drank a LOT. I lied to my brother saying I hadn't drank much and they kept giving me new stuff to try (they were enebreated already). The entire time, I was still undercontrol. So according to the one time, I have a VERY high tolerance. So I guess I should pick the last answer.

And I'm VERY lucky I didn't die from alcohol poisoning that night!

one or two glasses of wine or beer will do it. i don't drink that often so i feel it within the first drink. and if i have more than two or three i usually feel sick.

I'd have to say 5 to 6 drinks. I would feel pretty tipsy after 3 or 4, but would be drunk on 5 or 6. And thats just drinking beer.

Gin and Tonic, yummy

2

I don't know. I can't remember the last time I drank enough to get drunk. If I go to a bar with friends I never have more than 2 beers. I'm not a big drinker.

I'd say 7 to 8 drinks if I wanna get wasted but not get sick, 5 to 6, just to feel giggly, 11 or 12 if I wanna wake up in the drunk tank with an assault case

My answer would be the same as bcollins, except I don't go to bars.

My drink of choice is a screwdriver (vodka and orange juice). I start feeling the effects after 2, get tipsy at 3 or 4, and start getting drunk around 5. I'm not crap faced drunk until 7 or 8, though. It's been a while since I got drunk, but I was drinking shots of whiskey and chasing it with beer. To be honest, I have no idea how much I drank then.

Acid reflux put an end to my drinking.

I'm a weakling. I start to feel it after half a drink, but intoxication takes at least two drinks on an empty stomach.

I put 5-6 but it really depends.
My limit would be 4 pints of beer but about 6 vodka redbulls

On an empty stomach about 6 or 7.

A liter of Vodka will knock me out on an empty stomach (I have been misspelling "stomache" all of my life...go figure). It will take awhile, but I will eventually pass out. However, I am a recovering alcoholic, and I don't drink anymore...so it might have changed.

Five to six, but this varies gravely. I remember nights when I drank half the bar and I was still sober.

At the moment, nil. I can't drink a drop without wanting to throw up. However, pre-pregnancy it was quite high. Between 12 and 15 vodkas before I felt much effect, or 7 pints of something heavier. Apart from red wine, where three glasses would send me reeling.

Depends. I don't drink much now so maybe 3 beers in a short period of time would do it.

On the other hand hard booze like Jack Daniels doesn't phase me at all. I used to drink a whole 750ml bottle of JD every night 10 years ago. Hardly got a buzz of it. I'd put 7-8 shots into a glass, ice and a half inch of 7-Up on top. Not too many of those and the bottle was gone. I stopped because it was tearing my stomach up (no hangovers though) and it scared me that I could drink that much with no effect and wondered what it was doing to my liver. This Christmas though I did get myself a bottle and put down almost the whole thing Christmas Eve with hardly more than a 'warm feeling'. Wonder why that is?

I can't handle wine at all. Besides tasting horrible one sip gives me a major headache right between the eyes within minutes. Must be allergic to it.

It completely depends on how much I've had to eat. I'm a cheap drunk if I haven't eaten that day.

That's a tough question, because I'm not in the habit of drinking on an empty stomach...and that does make quite a big difference. Another important factor that wasn't even mentioned is how fast you drink. I tend to drink fairly slowly, so I don't feel the effects so much.

In most normal situations (for me) I would be eating at the same time that I'm consuming my first few drinks. I average about a drink an hour. I limit myself to seven drinks as a rule. Any more than that and I would be quite drunk, and I don't really enjoy being that drunk.

I know that on an empty stomach I can feel some slight effect even after only one drink. I wouldn't finish a second drink without eating something. Normally it takes three or four before I really feel much effect, because I'm eating.

don't encourage children to drink alcohol

5 or 6 shots of liquor

isn't drunk different than intoxicated?

2 = legally intoxicated for my body weight (within one hour)

I'm a social drinker, by the time I finish my 3rd drink, the first is out of my system..unless it's one of those rare situations that I'm not driving and I'm !@#<%&^PCUG IXCG*&UKI this survey is too frustrating, too many variables

Oh yeah? Why not?

Just kidding.

Fix yourself a drink. It'll help with the frustration.

Can't gotta write a few papers.

Yes, I agree; look what happened to you and your alcoholism; have you been able to crawl out of the bottle yet?

Alcohol hits me fast; I don't have much tolerance for it.

1-2 to feel tipsy. Three to four to be quite drunk.

At about 3 I am loopy. I guess you could call me a light weight.

I like rum and coke and a good Pinot Grigio. Definatly not a beer drinker.

On an empty stomach, 3-4 probably.

On an empty stomach, I'd feel drunk after three or four, I think, but it completely depends on mood

2 drinks and I know I've had something, but 3-4 keeps me there. I do love my R and R

Yes , I have no idea about this

I do not drink and that is the truth, and I would not know? Plus I am on medications and drugs and booze do not mix?

And if I ever did go out and drink, I think just 2 rum and cokes would put me out and maybe kill me?

not much. Just one or two will get me pretty buzzed up. Man I cant hold my liquor for crap.

Actually it depends on what mood or how i feel.....When im happy or hyper i will have to drink A Lot before i get drunk...if i am in a dogy attitude it doesnt take as much....and when im sad or disappointed it doesnt take very much.

and especially to you young young children, who most likely should be in bed. no little tastes of beer or wine. don't do it to yourselves

Oh, you are so right; I'll use your miserable existence as an example for my future. I just hope one day you can break the bonds of alcohol addiction.

I'd say I would start feeling a little tipsy after maybe 1 or 2 pints of vodka.

Don't mind me, I'm probably just being a smartass.

I've noticed it for a while and haven't said anything, but is that picture of yours a mugshot?

my existance isn't miserable, i may not be the richest person in the world but i know how to love people

no I just always manage to look like that in pictures! I got some new ones took today so I'll replace it in the next few days for the next mugshot

especially yourself

who better?

a partner...you know, two consenting adults. But I guess you are more likely to enjoy a whole pizza and...your right hand.

I'm still waiting for you to be clever...but I suspect it will be a very long wait. (yawn)

I suspect that's what you're best at...waitng. I mean really, look at your situation: fat, alcoholic, and in the hoosegow; you've honed your ability to do nothing other than wait to a razor's edge. I applaud your skill. Keep up the good work!!!

Matty and Wolfgang: The both of you know each other somehow?

you've honed your ability to do nothing other than wait to a razor's edge.

What cheap B movie did you get that line from?

I USED to drink & it only took a couple of wine coolers to get me tipsy. I can't drink anymore, so if I did it would probably take 1 drink.

3 to 4 vodka and cokes or WKDs (I'm a teen, leave me alone) before I start feeling drunk... around ten before I'm pretty damn pissed.
