Piss for piss sake

[Maha]

I have cut back on drinking, not that I was any big drinker to begin with but, as it stands now, maybe I will have 1 or 2 over the weekend, dont drink during the week. The problem is.....I cant settle on/find a drink that doesn't give me that acid reflux bullshit. Rum is my drink of choice (Appletons I perfer) but that makes me fall over and damage myself within about 5 hours.
Premix? Cody's gives me the squirts, I have tried others but they are fuckin disgusting. Vodka/bacardi/gin...all female drinks (not sexest, the truth) Bourbon/Whiskey I can live without, never been a Whiskey fan and Jim Beam is ok, but cant drink to much of it, get that reflux thing. I dont like beer that much, maybe the odd Heinny/Radler but thats about it.

Now, my very first top shelf I ever had was Brandy/lime/lemonade.
Thinking I may try Brandy again, have not had it in years.

Is it fair to say that, the darker spirits give you heartburn more readily than than say, the clear or lighter spirits?

[Finn]

I'm going to stop drinking just as soon as this recession is over.

You could always just give up and solve the problem (well one of them anyway :rolleyes: ) in one shot (not of the spirit variety of course)

Rehab's for quitters.

One word buddy Zantac. Then you can eat and drink whatever the fuck you want without that "acid reflux bullshit". I too suffer from it and bourbon doesn't help the situation, but I get reflux from a glass of water, so go figure. I therefore have nothing to lose by drinking alcohol... other than my mind and my money...so cheers. :apint:

[Trudes]

I find it's the coke and shit that gets mixed with the spirits that gives me reflux, moved to mixing with ginger ale fixed it. My brother had a stomach ulcer and he swore by drinking Port (cause stopping drinking would have been out of the question :rolleyes: ) Oh and like peasea says Zantac is your friend! :)

[MentalFacility]

I like chicks drinks like vodka. But my favorite is yagameister + red bull or relentless or coke if u are a cheap cunt.

Try it, it really isnt that bad.

Besides, whats up with this menly drinks? How can you become more menly if u drink piss that tastes like shit?=)

[Mom]

my favorite is yagameister + red bull

You think yagameister and red bull tastes good? :crazy:

[R6_kid]

Try yourself a chivas regal on the rocks, maybe mixed with Ginger Ale if you don't like straight liqour.

Otherwise try a warm hennessy - the trick is to heat it up in a water bath. I think a couple of double shots will make most people light headed and ready for a lie down.

[Mully]

You think yagameister and red bull tastes good? :crazy:

Is that like jagermiester and red bull?? Cos that tastes like eating out a bull's arse.

[Slyer]

Jägermeister I believe he is referring to.
And it is good shit. Needs to be really cold though.

[Maha]

I'm going to stop drinking just as soon as this recession is over.

Has that started already?...

I dont like wine either......fussy bastard eh?

Giving up would not be a problem, however, I like to get pissed every now and then.

What is this Zantac you speak of grasshopper?
Is it something you drink before getting on the piss?

[Maha]

So does Waikato....that beer is ok if its cold and you dont drink anything else, in saying that, a couple of Waikato's is enough.

Now that looks interesting and drinkable!
Only problem I would have with that is....making it one after the other for a few hours on end.

Yeah Trudes im with ya on all that. I have started drinking Ginger beer of late, that Bundaberg stuff, seems to be the better one around. Maybe I could mix that with Brandy, might give it a go....could call it a Brandyberg?

Port is good, but wouldn't want to get pissed on it....:sick:

[Slyer]

Was is this acid indigestion you lot are on about?
Am I not old enough or just don't drink enough?

Its a bastard mate, makes ya puke if ya dont get onto it quick.
I know what it is but cant medically explain it, but it burns like fuck though, as stomach acid does!

[rainman]

...

never been a Whiskey fan

Whiskey may be an acquired taste, but a taste for (good) whiskey is worth acquiring. Worth buying the good shit though, Bells/Grants etc are crap and give me reflux too.

Oh, and for the reflux, Losec/Omeprazole. But go see your doc, swallow the camera, find out if you have a Helicobacter Pylori problem, they can clear that up with antibiotics so you don't have to take pills forever.

Otherwise, welcome to the ulcer club...

[R6_kid]

Come down to the Hobsonville RSA tomorrow night and i'll see if I can fix you something you like. Lots of people your age hanging around the place anyway :bleh:

The Bundy's good alright and Zantac is a pill you take before getting on it. Just ask at your pharmacy.

[The Pastor]

You probably need to do more exercise.

[Mom]

Port is good, but wouldn't want to get pissed on it....:sick:

MMmmm port is verrrryyyy good, has interesting side effects too sometimes :devil2:

[MadDuck]

makes ya puke

NO... I could never imagine you being the "puking" type Maha :bleh:

[DMNTD]

..but it burns like fuck though, as stomach acid does!

Use more lube Mark ;)

[kevfromcoro]

where do you guys cop it
in the chest or throat?
i get it in the throat.... burning sensation..
comes and goes though.. not all the time.
zantac takes care of it most of the time...
think most alcahol gives ya that ..

[Trudes]

and tomato sauce and pastry, how I love TF on my pie but god does it give me the screaming reflux!!

[slofox]

Cos that tastes like eating out a bull's arse.

Hmmmm I never thought to try that....tastes bad does it then...?

[Maha]

NO... I could never imagine you being the "puking" type Maha :bleh:

We will keep that little story to ourselves eh?...:shifty:

Mid 30's???....wow they will let anyone into those places now?


The Bundy's good alright and Zantac is a pill you take before getting on it. Just ask at your pharmacy.

I will get onto that...rainman suggested swallowing a camera and though my digital is small, I feel it would hurt worse going down than Reflux!


You probably need to do more exercise.

Just three mins a day.

MMmmm port is verrrryyyy good, has interesting side effects too sometimes :devil2:

Ah yes, stamina plus! as long as its not 3-4 am eh?


Use more lube Mark ;)

More??.... perhaps I should take it via the rectum?? I gag with the amount I swallow as it is...:confused:

[MentalFacility]

It is awesome when it is ice cold and the bottle is covered in frost.

How can you become more menly if u drink piss that tastes like shit?=)

It seems very strange that the same person wrote both those remarks... :whistle:

[Mikkel]

Try out caiprinhas (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caipirinha) and mojitos (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mojito). Use a decent rum for either of them - traditionally it's cachaça and white rum, but using a good rum just makes them even better. Very good for hangovers and you can make them just as strong or weak as you want - so you can get more or less than 5 hours out of your rum if you choose.


Oh, and for the reflux, Losec/Omeprazole. But go see your doc, swallow the camera, find out if you have a Helicobacter Pylori problem, they can clear that up with antibiotics so you don't have to take pills forever.

Swallow the camera is a very very nasty game which I never want to try my hands at again, if I can help it. I haven't tried anything before or since that was more uncomfortable than that - more painful for sure, but not more uncomfortable.

I find that running and staying somewhat fit helps to keep the hernia in check. I still drink what I want, eat hot curries and drink all the coffee I care for - no worries these days.

[Mully]

Now that looks interesting and drinkable!

Nah, amateur. You make a jug of the stuff, and keep it in the fridge to keep topping up your glass.


Hmmmm I never thought to try that....tastes bad does it then...?

Hey, I was a poor student, I needed the money. I did some things I'm not proud of...... Shit, I mean It's a figure of speech.

Saved it again, Mully.

[rainman]

Mmmmm. Mojitos V Good. But must be taken lazing on the beach. A hot beach. Like in Thailand. Never heard of a caipiriwhatsit, or the main ingredient, for that matter. Note to self: Must get out more.

Really? Ketamines meant I didn't feel or remember a thing...

Yeah fitness helps with all sorts of stuff, as does a general low-stress lifestyle. (I knew there was something I was doing wrong...) But with drugs I can drink what I want, and spicy food is no problem.

What absolutely kills my stomach, Losec or no Losec? Custard slices. Not the filling - the pastry and icing. And I'm wondering about coffee, too.

The caipirinhas are just made with a Brazilian low-quality rum-like spirit. A bit to rum what mescal is to tequila. Rum is superior - but more expensive.
And both are fine on a sunny NZ day!

In that case you were spared the experience of what felt like an hour of convulsions while doing all you can to try and relax and not punch the doctor and tearing the fucking thing out by yourself. It was not nice. Similar feeling to dry retching continuously for perhaps 5 minutes. I was lying on my side, and during the procedure saliva production goes nuts - nice to get on your bicycle and pedal 5 kms home in late autumn in Denmark with a spit-soaked t-shirt... not.

[Slyer]

Yeah man, this thing

http://www.jager.com/_splash.cfm?ref=/index.cfm?

It is awesome when it is ice cold and the bottle is covered in frost.
I got a metal bottle holder thing for it, it's mean.

[irishlad]

Yeah, when I had camera down my throat... It reminded me of when, as a kid,I held the dog down whilst the vet cut his stitches out. I miss the dog.

Honestly the endoscope through the femoral vein was less traumatic than the hoover hose down the throat. Take all the drugs you can get.

As for drinks! Discovered a cocktail bar in Onehunga at weekend. $30 gave us 2 drinks. Late at night seemed worth it. Very good drinks. Later in week, still seems worthwhile. Was a very good night out. Brambles in Onehunga. Cheesy 80's music and a bartender that seemed a wee bit autistic/intense on making drinks!!

What has this to do with acid reflux. Well not sure, had a few drinks. Maybe time for bed

[MentalFacility]

Ive seen them sell ice molds for ur freedge. Put water in, and u get shot glasses made of ice... how mean is that...

Try eating the fish at the Si Chuan (Chilli Style) Chinese Restaurant in Northcote shops.

I guarantee all that chilli oil comes back up to haunt you at night,,,

[Slyer]

I need to learn all these terms so I can bitch more efficiently.

[CookMySock]

Ditch the shit completely bro, and have a beeeeg glass of water. Splash out and have a beeeeg scoop of ice in it. If ya must get intoxicated, roll a racehorse to go with it. You will feel a thousand times better in the morning.

Oh yes you are so right. When I had an endoscopy I manned up and refused any drugs. Wrong. While I lay there with a something the size of a firehose working its way down to the stomach, the gag reflex kicked in bigtime. So there I am trying to hurl this bloody thing out and screaming Ruuuuuuth....and the damned surgeon is laughing. Reckoned it was the best stag roar he'd ever heard.

Oh yes, tres humourous. :crybaby: What really got me was he talked to me immediately afterwards and expected me to remember! So anyway, yes hiatus hernia, operable, my choice. So far I've stayed with Losec.

Even worse was a barium colonoscopy and trust me guys, that's a ball of laughs all by itself.

Just in case anyone is interested, you clean yourself out the day before by drinking Klean-Prep (Sodium Sulphate, Sodium Bicarbonate, Sodium Chloride and Potassium Chloride). This is the nuclear bomb of laxatives. There is a description somewhere, probably in jokes, which is worth reading because it describes the explosive power of this stuff far more accurately than I.

So next day I'm strapped onto a table which rotates in all directions. Barium is pumped into the bowel while a team of sadists in green hang about and pretend to take x-ray pictures. Part of the process requires being upside down to make sure the barium really gets all the way up to the illium.

A few weeks later they sliced me open and cut some bowel out.

Thats enough, I'm sweating just remembering it.....

Losec, exercise, keep the weight down.
