Secondly, this guy I was dating over the summer banged me one morning and later told me it was a great hangover cure... but also that he went home and threw up in the shower afterwards. Gee I wonder why that didn't wind up being the love of a lifetime.

Hangover? HAH!
Cisco IOS eats hangovers for breakfast.
Never forget to "wr mem" before you go outside to puke.

It's been years since I've been that hungover, but it's a lot easier to avoid heartburn/residual malaise/nausea and general feelings of ickyness if you just get up when your body tells you to.

but what is worse....not getting fully drunk or having a raging hangover?
he he why do I have a feeling most of you will think the former....

But yes, the water trick is great. I find that once I'm drunk I reach for the beer just b/c I'm thirsty. If the water is there I'll drink that. It slows me down and hydrates. Good stuff all around.

Because professionals don't get hangovers.

I tried it and it nearly killed me...but then again nothing at all helps my hangovers.

What I used to do was this: get hamburger dill pickle slices. Enjoy the delicious pickles on sandwiches. Save the brine. (Bread and butter chips, sweet gherkins, or ANYTHING ELSE is strictly forbidden. Only the juice from neon green hamburger dill pickles.)
Put the disturbingly green pickle juice into an ice cube tray. Freeze.
When horribly hung over, put two or three pickle-cubes into a glass. Pour sparkling water over that mess. Let it sit for awhile, all cold and salty and electrolyte-replenishing and fizzy. Sip slowly while making a giant sopping mass of eggy cheesy omelette.
I've curtailed my drinking in recent years. I don't get hangovers very often anymore, so it's been awhile since I've had to resort to Pickle Ice Fizz. But it's delightful when you need it.

Britain does not have a good selection of pickles. Harumph!

Here in Amurika, we have delicious hamburger dill chips that are sitting in a wonderful electrolyte-laden solution of vinegary/salty/dill goodness. Not sweet, not really spicy, just weird leavings of lactic acid fermentation and neon green food coloring. It's way too salty by itself, but if it's diluted with sparkling water, it's better than Gatorade.

My pickle juice experiment was not pretty. I'm sticking with large doses of B vitamins instead!

The one time I made Ketel Ones and sodas all night long, the next day's hangover was legendary, and a friend suggested eating dill pickles to cure the nausea. And they tasted so good and cold going down.... and they tasted the same coming back up 30 seconds later. So while I am open to and interested in pickle cures, the one I tried was bad news bears.
