A French American scientist has invented a new alcohol spray that instantly intoxicates the user. However, the effects are nearly as brief, wearing off in a matter of moments.
<--->
The short-term effects are reportedly due to the 0.075 millileter dosage. In other words, it would take 1,000 sprays to equal the level of alcohol contained in one conventional drink.
The spray bottle itself was created by French product designer Philippe Starck and will be sold for about $26.
Reportedly, not only does the sensation of being drunk wear off almost immediately but the user would also supposedly be able to pass a breathalyzer test, verifying that they are no longer under the influence of alcohol.

All I know for sure is that I somehow lost a shirt, I had some kind of weird glitter all over me, and I woke up in room full of people I'd never met before.
But, hey, we've all had mornings like that.

(22,541 posts)gave me the heebiejeebies. Can't remember when I first heard it but I was pretty young. Thinking of God eating me like a sacrament. OMG. Anyway, I got over it. And yeah, I love John Prine. And Melanie. Still love Melanie.
I dreamed they locked God up
Down in my basement
And he waited there for me
To have this accident
So he could drink my wine
And eat me like a sacrament
And I just stood there like I do
Then I came and went
I came and went
Like a bird in a foreign sky
Couldn't even say good bye
Or come and share the pain
My Saddle's in the rain

They can get loaded, hit on somebody, get laid, sober up, and hate themselves afterward, all in the space of 20 seconds.

(9,989 posts)The alcahol has to get into your bloodstream to work. It's true you can get hammered on fumes (it's how I was shown to drink grappa {Portugese Moonshine}), or from a wine enema, or even shooting up alcahol - but the ol' liver is the only way it leaves.
