my first drunk experience was at 14. found some alcohol in the fridge/on the counter (don’t remember which), the places my dad usually leaves his alc. poured myself some when he was in the other room and drank it in front of my friend on facetime.

didn’t quite vomit but nearly did. he told me i was entertaining but also really weird (kept talking about communism and communist china?)

i also remember saying “i love you” to him but he fortunately hung up right before i said that.

I'll let you know when/if it happens.

I was too uncool to ever be in a binge drinking peer pressure situation and have yet to find an alcoholic drink I actually like the taste of, so I've never managed to drink enough in one sitting to feel any significant effects.

Don't get me wrong: I want to like cocktails, as all the flavor combinations seem pretty interesting. It's just that whenever I actually try one, I'm disappointed by how the bitter taste of the alcohol ruins whatever else is going on in the drink.

Ican only drink something if it's somewhat diluted. If it's too noticeable Iepxerience it like how hand desinfectant smells. Especially high volume stuff. Just not enjoyable. :/

What I actually enjoy is a citrus heavy gin tonic that is basically diluted to <10%.
But I probably could drink it without gin anyway.

Now something like Sake (for example mixed with yuzu) actually tastes good without being heavy in alcohol taste.

Yeah, same here. I'm middle aged and I've never been drunk. I don't see the appeal, and most alcohol is nasty.

Amaretto and Coke is tasty. Doesn't taste like alcohol at all to me; i dont particularly like alcohol either, but do like the flavors it introduces for cooking.
