Donald Trump appeared to describe a dementia screening he underwent at Walter Reed Medical Center as a 'very hard' IQ test while speaking with reporters inside Air Force One
Feeling hungover and not having gods chosen around will probably at least balance it out where you’ll still be ecstatic at least. Champagne is damn good though, hangover be damned so long as you drink a normal amount of water.
Alcohol triggers two medical conditions I have so I to don’t drink anymore. After 6 years without a drop of alcohol, trust me you’re better off not having it, just buy some fireworks or something.
That’s why you have to light the fireworks before eating them. They undergo a chemical reaction when lit and are not longer gunpowder after a few seconds.
I’m currently trying to figure out why alcohol triggers migraines for me, but only sometimes. Lately it’s been most times. I only drink socially now, and even then, more often than not I abstain.
I’m not talking big drinking, I mean one Manhattan can either be the beginning of a fun night where I might have two or three more drinks, tops.
Or I can feel the headache starting before I even finish the first drink.
Replace whiskey with gin, vodka, beer, wine, whatever. All have the same 50/50 chance of ruining my night and next day, depending on how hard I ignore it. No rhyme or reason to what alcohol does it, though I admit to not being extremely scientific.
Sugar level doesn’t seem to have an effect. Hyper hydration seemingly helps sometimes? But barely. Even with liquid IV or lmnt pregame, no dice. I drink plenty of water every day regardless, I like sugary foods but I avoid pop like the plague.
My recent blood work was all good, fasting glucose was good, so I don’t think it’s diabetes.
Doctor wasn’t extremely helpful. He did recommend trying tiny amounts of alcohol, and different types of alcohol. Trying to see if some combination can bring relief. Then just drink that.
My most recent thought was that maybe it has some connection to my teeth. I get migraines for seemingly no reason, but a bad toothache can definitely be a trigger. I’ve got a couple bad teeth, and I grind. But dentistry is expensive, so it’ll be awhile, if ever, before I find permanent relief there.
While I don’t get migraines, I do regularly get massive headaches and grind my teeth which are in such bad shape the dentist said it would be cheaper to just get full upper and lower implants at this point. Seeing how alcohol doesn’t always trigger the migraine I’d say yes it’s probably more to do with your teeth, but I’m just going on what you wrote to produce my unsolicited prognosis.
As for what alcohol triggers for me, GURD (severe and chronic acid reflux) and IBS-D.
The GURD can trigger almost immediately or later, depending on how strong the drink is.
The IBS-D usually hits within 1 to 2 hours of drinking and then it’s hours of pain, cramping, sitting on the toilet, and praying for death.
I haven’t had a drink since March 2019 and while I’ll never fully escape the symptoms of either of these, I have managed to reduce the frequency and severity of them by cutting out all alcohol.
Best of luck figuring out what’s causing your migraines. Best advice I can give is stop drinking for a while and see if you still get them, if yes then it’s probably not the alcohol.
I made jokes about buying a very expensive bottle of scotch (something like Johnny Walker gold label, or even platinum) when Trump dies… but maybe I don’t.
Not the person you were in a conversation with, but all Johnny Walker is blended scotch. I would suggest a single malt instead (the entire bottle is from a single distillation).
I’m partial to peat heavy scotches, and my go to are Lagavulin and Laphroaig, both should be under $100 (been a few years since I’ve indulged). If you want a more middle of the road honeyed and heathered flavor, go for MacCallan 12 or Glenmorangie, both should be under $60. If you want something with salty seaside flavor to it, opt for a speyside like Glenfiddich or a west highland like Oban.
It’s not that jw is a bad whisky, but for what people pay for a bottle of blue, you can get two fantastic bottles of an actual single malt.
I do not drink alcohol. the day this guy stops talking i will continue to not drink alcohol. Just because someone you hate stops talking doesn’t mean you need to drink.
Martinelli’s was good enough for me when I was 8, and it is good enough for me at 48.
Explanation: this is a carbonated apple juice, growing up this was provided at many parties for kids as an alternative to champagne. We keep a bottle in our house for celebrations still.

I do not drink alcohol. The day this guy stops talking I will go to the supermarket and buy a bottle of Champagne and drink it alone.
DRINK WATER.
that will be the worst hangover. Drink a lot of water with that.
Feeling hungover and not having gods chosen around will probably at least balance it out where you’ll still be ecstatic at least. Champagne is damn good though, hangover be damned so long as you drink a normal amount of water.
If you don’t drink, can I recommend basically anything but champagne? Its not good tasting, get a sweet wine or something else instead.
yeah i celebrate with port
I’m going to drink a couple bottles of any Mexican beer
I love the specificity of Mexican beer.
Until he stops talking I’m drinking Mexican water :(
My wife and I have a bottle of champagne that was a wedding gift. The day it happens is the day we uncork the bottle.

I would but gunpowder exacerbates my acid reflux
Gluten free gunpowder, a bit more expensive but worth it once in a while when you want to treat yourself.
Real gunpowder is gluten free
You’re thinking of the knockoff brand glunpowder
That’s why you have to light the fireworks before eating them. They undergo a chemical reaction when lit and are not longer gunpowder after a few seconds.
If I may ask, what conditions?

There are better tasting options. A nice cognac, perhaps.
Strawberry shake, even better. Or a mango lassi.
I have a bottle of Michel Forgeron Barrique 1984 I’ve been sipping now and then. I dress for a Kool-Aid budget but live a cognac life.
wouldn’t be too fast…shit is only getting worse when he croaks.
I made jokes about buying a very expensive bottle of scotch (something like Johnny Walker gold label, or even platinum) when Trump dies… but maybe I don’t.
Or you could buy some good scotch instead.
Johnny walker gold and platinum are both over 100$. What is your definition of good scotch and how much does it cost?
Not the person you were in a conversation with, but all Johnny Walker is blended scotch. I would suggest a single malt instead (the entire bottle is from a single distillation).

ill stick to my brio thanks.
I was agreeing with you and offering a non-alcoholic analog, but you do you bro.
cheers allan.
I’m glad you are staying to true to yourself and your own needs, but you can find other ways to celebrate that work for you.
ok
