    Ditto.

    Got hammered, chap I was drinking pissed himself. Somehow we managed to
    get back to the house we were staying at. I collapsed in the drive, he
    made it inside. I woke up to find someone trying to force a tube down
    my throat to pump my stomach... only to hear "It's not him, the bad
    one's inside".

    I didn't know the chap I was drinking with was on drugs for epilepsy.
    He spent a week in hospital.

    It's half the fun of a night out with sweller!

    Of course the detail you left out is that the people in question are
    complete strangers, which only adds to the entertainment!

    Both for me. But only those two. And I'm fine with bourbon.

    By rights it should be vermouth as well, but the lord moves in mysterious
    ways.

    Ah! That's "whisky", without an "e". "Whiskey" is Irish, or bourbon.

    I had a problem with vermouth after a spectacular puking until I
    turned inside out incident, following downing a whole bottle in five
    minutes. I was already pretty plastered, then won the bottle in a
    raffle - so I opened it, poured it into a pint galss and downed the
    fucker. It came back nearly as fast ...

    Rum and black was my bete noir at 17. Sweet and sticky, didn't taste
    like booze at all. Spectacular vomiting of Exorcist proportions
    followed one heavy night. The thing is, it smelled and tasted quite
    acceptable even the second time around, but I can feel the gorge
    rising thinking about it now, nearly 30 years later. Argh, the purple
    bubbles are coming to get me ... !

    Well, they're different drinks, made by a different process, with
    different tastes. You might as well call gin vodka.

    Sounds familiar, though mine was a bottle of Martini knocked back in
    record time after a day in the blazing sun stuffing my face with
    ackee and saltfish washed down with red strip at the Notting Hill
    carnival.

    The combination (not least due to the sun) didn't go down well. Or,
    rather, it went down well and came back up spectacularly.

    A crate of lager washed down with Martini used to be something of a
    party speciality for me. Happy days...

    Buggeroi, I thought I'd got it wrong ;-)
    Furry muff. I'vce only had one go at it warm and it didn't agree with
    my taste buds at all.
    Personal perception again, I guess. Odd associations - like
    Agorophobics Anonymous and how open they are about their problem.
    Well, there you go. I hate and detest fish in most forms, on an
    involuntary throat-closing-up, oversalivating, gorge rising sort of
    way. I guess saki is for fish lovers - that'll do for me ;-)
