CONFESS!!!! What Alcohol Beverage makes you CRINGE because...

[LynneSin]

...of a previous history with it.

Me?

Southern Comfort!!

If our world became devoid of all forms of liquid other than Southern Comfort or Jagermeister I would without a doubt go with the Jager even though I can't stand that stuff either. Even the smell of Southern Comfort makes me nauseous and as I write this post I can mentally smell SoCo and I'm cringing and getting goosebumps thinking about it - almost like a mental fingers across the blackboard type feeling.

In college Southern Comfort was my drink even as I attempted to drink 19 shots of it on my 19th birthday (I worked on it all day and they were small shots and no, no one was driving - we were having an all-day birthday party at our beach house in Avalon). But in my sophomore year at college I was at a friend's party and drinking SoCo along with some red berry punch (not mixed together and no alcohol in the punch). Around 10pm I remember telling everyone I was heading to bed and didn't really feel trashed or anything. Around 3am my roommate woke me up - I had gotten sick in my bed (yes, I know - TMI). After that I can never touch Southern Comfort again, can't stand the smell of it and I don't even want it in a mixed drink

:scared:

[xmas74]

1. Natural Light,

Southern Comfort, Mai Tais and Cosmopolitans.

Strawberry Hill should also be added to the list.

[bluethruandthru]

2. Gin!

After two gin martinis I ended up face down on my bathroom floor for an entire night! (That was after spending a couple of hours in the bathroom of a bar getting rid of the martinis) ICK!

[wildhorses]

5. I can not get past the smell of Gin...

pine needles:puke:

[bluethruandthru]

26. Bad Cologne n/t

[July]

28. Me three!

Worst hangover of my life when I went too far with gin and tonic, back when I was a college girl about a century ago. I can't bear the smell of it anymore.

[miss_american_pie]

3. Goldschlager

Party when I was 17. After drinking half a bottle of champagne. I remember the first three shots and nothing else until the next morning.

I will never drink that stuff again.

[AlecBGreen]

6. me too

I was 17...drank half a liter and threw up in the basment of our church. I am DEFINITELY going to hell for that one...

[LynneSin]

8. You got drunk in a church - you HEATHEN you

:rofl:

[miss_american_pie]

27. LOL

Drinking in a church? :rofl:

I never was actually sick, just really wished that I had been.

[fight4my3sons]

34. oh yeah, that stuff is wicked. Can't even look at it.

Rumplemintz (spelling?) also. :puke:

[LynneSin]

35. Rumplemintz isn't nothing more than Scope kicked up a few notches

:puke:

[pecwae]

4. Sloe gin.

I heaved my stomach lining at the tender age of 16 after drinking several shot glasses. Just thinking about it makes my gag reflex kick in.

[lildreamer316]

79. I second that.

It's NASTY.

[JackBeck]

7. Peach Schnapps.

Made me sick the first time I got drunk.

I bartended for 8 years and it cringed each time I picked-up the bottle. Had the same reaction to SoCo, as well. I think it's the sweet smell that made by stomach turn.

[LynneSin]

10. wasn't there a mix drink with SoCo and Peach Schnapps?

:shrug:

[JackBeck]

13. If there is, I never made one.

Sounds like it would be super sweet.

[Hugin]

9. Crème de Menthe

*ulp*... Here it comes again!

Oh, no!

*urp*

[Magrittes Pipe]

11. Apples.

My second night at college, a floormate and I went looking for beer. None was to be found (only freshmen on campus that first week), but we found a bottle of tequila.

We drank said tequila, but having no limes, we were forced to chase with lemon juice. When the lemon juice was gone (and keeping in mind that we were shooting out of coffee mugs, as we had no shot glasses), we sought another chaser.

Behold, the apple.

Apple sliced, we licked the salt, slammed the tequila, sucked the apple. Apples are not juicy, but we managed (being too drunk to notice, anyway). Then the bottle was gone.

I woke up the next morning with apple chunks all over my sheets. Lucky for me I don't sleep on my back.

To this day, I can't eat apples.

[Haole Girl]

51. That was quite a story

Thanks for making me grin! :D

[SacredCow]

12. rumpleminze

Ever wanted to get drunk on mint-flavored mouthwash? I didn't either, but my last night as a bartender made it seem like the right thing to do.

[Mutley]

14. Jagermeister and Vodka.

I really don't drink liquor anymore. When I do drink, I drink beer.

[JackBeck]

18. I had two nicknames as a bartender:

"Little Yack" and "PukieMon" (pronounced like "Pokemon").

The culprit? Jagermeister.

[Mutley]

21. Jagermeister is the nectar of Hades.

:scared: :puke:

[underpants]

31. Jager but not because I got sick

just because it is so nasty

[Mutley]

32. I actually liked the taste of it.

Which did not help me at all.

[underpants]

37. There is something deeply deeply WRONG with you

:eveilgrin:

[Mutley]

39. You're not the first to say it.

:P

[JackBeck]

40. I still get pulled into doing shots from time to time.

And the morning after, I wake-up on my kitchen floor, not able to remember how I got home.

:toast:

[Mutley]

44. I don't know how you do it.

I hate, HATE being drunk. Even a little bit.

[Ariana Celeste]

60. I love the taste of it

I've only had it on two nights, once during a band practice and then one night with my mom drinking Jager bombs. Love love love it.

[Mutley]

65. I like the taste, but I can not actually drink it.

Oh, it made me so so so sick. :puke:

[hunter]

62. Jägermeister or cheap gin.

It's a tossup.

Did you actually mix Jägermeister and Vodka?????

[Mutley]

66. Yes.

:P

No, I didn't.

Jagermeister is the sickest I've ever been, ever -- including all the times of having the flu and strep throat as a kid.

When I had 100 proof Vodka is the only time in my life I've ever blacked out. :thumbsdown: Never. Again.

[jukes]

15. cuervo shooters.

my main refreshment when i was a nark. consumed gallons of it, y MOUNDS of cocaine.

how did i write coherant reports?

:scared:

can't tolerate much beyond baileys/coffee these days. alcohol makes me sick thinking about it.

[Roon]

16. I drive cab sometimes

And I can always tell when a passenger has been drinking Jagermeister, they smell like poop.

[JackBeck]

19. Are you sure they haven't crapped themselves?

[Roon]

25. LOL!

No, I am pretty sure it's the jager.

[XNASA]

17. Listerine

:(

[kwassa]

20. Tequila, but I got over it after five years or so.

the smell would make my stomach flip.

My 21st birthday, which has several missing hours in my memory. Salt, lemon, tequila shots.

[LynneSin]

23. See - I still can't stomach Cuervo

But I love top shelf tequila. There is such a world of difference between the two. You could actually sip at top shelf tequila and you would never ever think of using lemon & salt with Herradura or Don Patron.

[kwassa]

42. I don't drink enough tequila to know the good stuff.

I generally have it in the occasional marguerita.

More of a single-malt scotch guy, or beer. Or wine. Or .....

[lildreamer316]

81. SO true.

I can only drink top shelf. Cuervo makes me sick to smell. I can kinda take it in margaritas.......

[LostinVA]

22. Bourbon... ugh... I can't even stand to smell it

After I almost died my first semester in college drinking way too much... pukefest for hours, sick for days..... and this was 1982.

[Spacemom]

24. Corona Beer

15 years old. Tequila shots followed with corona. Ugh. Many many hours spent in the bathroom begging god to go ahead and just kill me now.

For some reason tequila doesn't bother me, but the smell of corona makes me gag. :puke:

[ceile]

29. Purple Passion

or anything made with Everclear (ie rubbing alcohol). Ah, the memories!!

[Bossy Monkey]

30. Gin, tequila. Mind you, cheap gin and cheap tequila

from a hole-in-the-wall Philly bar called Froggy's Saloon, also when I was in college. My experience was similar to yours, though I made it to a bathroom at least. Ugh.

[regularguy]

33. Defran's, Glassboro NJ, early 80s, $1 Alabama Slammer night.

Can't even look at a bottle of Southern Comfort since then.

[Benfea]

36. That "wine in a box" stuff.

Don't tell me the brand or product name, I've managed to forget it. *shudder*

[anarch]

38. Jagermeister...but only b/c of a previous experience w/ cough syrup

of which Jager reminds me a little too closely. :puke:

[seemunkee]

41. Budweiser

Absolutely cannot stand the stuff. With all of that corn and rice in it instead of barley I wouldn't even classify it as beer.

[Reverend_Smitty]

43. I haven't had an experience like that...

I've had my share of wild nights but nothing that has made me swear off any liquor...then again I have an iron stomach. My friends joke that I would drink rubbing alcohol if it was on special that night. That said I probably wouldn't drink straight gin (it's fine in something like a long island iced tea) just because it tastes like a dirty ash tray to me...not that I go around drinking dirty ash tray water but you get what I'm trying to say.

[Lady Effingbroke]

45. this shyte...

never again!!! :scared: :scared: :scared: :scared: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke: :puke:

CISCO

[Downtown Hound]

68. Had the misfortune of drinking some of those in high school,

and have had the great fortune of never having had them again.

[faithnotgreed]

82. that stuff looks like shiny bbq sauce for children

is it alcoholic? or do i not want to know....

[YankeyMCC]

46. Tequila

that evil evil plant!

[mikeytherat]

47. Captain Morgan's Spiced Rum

Can't even smell it these days, and "the incident" was almost 20 years ago.

Bad, bad night it was.

mikey_the_rat

[Haole Girl]

48. Vodka

Haven't touched it since I was 17 years old.

[Blue-Jay]

49. Hot Damn and/or Firewater

Trust me, that hot cinnamon schnapps doesn't taste nearly as good as it is coming back up. :puke:

[AlCzervik]

50. Peppermint schnapps and rum.

got really sick from both.

[pitohui]

52. galliano

prob. no one else remembers this but in the 70s there was a drink called the harvey wallbanger that was sort of a screwdriver with the addition of this unfortunate liqueur

i still don't even like to see even the bottle

fortunately it is quite rare, not even sure it is still produced for mass market

[LynneSin]

53. All the restaurant's I've worked at have had Galliano

what the hell is that type of liquor?

[Oeditpus Rex]

54. All of 'em

Well... not exactly cringe, but just sorta go x( .

[Initech]

55. Egg nog.

Who the fuck came up with egg nog? To quote Dave Attell - "I want to get a little drunk but I also want some pancakes!"

[LynneSin]

58. OMFG....

:spray:

[hunter]

67. Ugghhhhh. Egg nog.

That's the first alcoholic beverage I had experience with.

It's probably why I hate Christmas Parties.

I was just a kid. And, dear God, almost everyone was smoking.

Whenever I walk into a room full of obnoxious drunken horny smoking adults, that's the memory that floods back.

It's the smell.

[scarlet_owl]

56. Grasshoppers. I just can't tolerate dairy and alcohol.

[Phillycat]

57. All of 'em!

But tequila is the worst. :puke:

[momophile]

59. margaritas. flavor doesn't matter. won't do them again.

two major accidents, and by accidents I mean spewin' red, white and blue. 21st and 23rd birthdays. uuugggghhh...:puke:

[Nicholas D Wolfwood]

61. Amaretto

I'm still recovering from a Dr. Pepper shot during Spring Break years ago that sent me over the edge. :puke:

[noonwitch]

63. Rum

The first time I ever drank too much it was Barcardi 151. I was violently ill, as I wasn't aware when drinking it that it was particularly high proof. I can never drink rum again.

[peekaloo]

64. Kahlua

Mudslides aren't pretty when they're recycled.

[Downtown Hound]

69. Tequila

In my early college phase I was quite a Tequila man. I could knock back shots of that stuff like there was no tomorrow, with no chaser or anything. Then all of a sudden, one night I simply couldn't drink the shit anymore. I didn't have a bad night where I was puking my guts out or anything. It was like my stomach simply said, that's it, no more. I haven't touched the stuff in it's raw form in years. Only in the occasional Margarita.

[skygazer]

70. Peppermint schnapps

Can't even eat a Peppermint Patty anymore. 13 shots in a row with no chaser. Stupid - went out, had no money, a guy offered to buy my girlfriend and I a drink. Figuring that we didn't know if we'd get more than one, we opted for a shot - good bang for the buck. But he kept buying all evening and he never asked if we wanted something different - just kept ordering "another round!"

I stole a sip or two of his beer here and there to act as a quasi-chaser but mainly it was 13 shots of schnapps in the span of about 2 or 3 hours. Didn't :puke: but I was not feeling too kindly about peppermint. And I still don't.

(as a matter of fact, when I stock my shelves - I run a liquor department - my stomach kind of turns over every time I put some on the shelf)

[Patiod]

71. My one girlfriend won't touch Tanqueray after we split a bottle

when we were 19, and she ended up on the folding table at the laundramat. Later the next day, we ran into two good-looking lifeguards, and they asked "why were you laughing hysterically and throwing ice cubes at us last night when we came over to visit you?"

We had absolutely NO recollection of the visiting lifeguards. Or the ice cubes.

To this day (20 years later) she can't drink Tanqueray. It's still my favorite, but then again, I didn't end up on the folding table....

[nemo137]

72. I had a bad run in the with Rev. Jack Daniels

I decided to drink shots and highballs until I felt optimistic on New Year's Eve, and ended up passed out in the hall after passing out most of the poison in the bathroom.

[KitchenWitch]

73. Jagermeister

Once was enough.

[amerikat]

80. Jaeger bombs are all the rage round here

shout glass full of Jaeger dropped into a glass of red bull. the chugged right down. I haven't done one but I see hoe people get when they drink it. Red bull is one of those energy drinks(lots of caffeine I think)

[TreasonousBastard]

74. Ratsopus. If you don't know what that is...

consider yourself lucky.

[NMMNG]

75. Southern Comfort for me as well

I drank a pint of it when I was a teenager and had a very bad experience. x(

[reyd reid reed]

76. Almost anything

I can't even stand the smell of beer. And the mere mention of MD 20/20 makes my skin crawl.

Even original Listerine...

[GRLMGC]

77. Any green apple flavored anything

I got trashed on green apple Smirnoff Twisted malt drinks and green apple flavored vodka along with other things. Oh, the puke was horrible. To top things off, that whole weekend, I had been eating leftover Panda Express and chocolate chip muffins my roommate had brought home after putting together an outreach for low income high school kinds interested in going to college. So after that awful experience with green apple flavored liquor, I can no longer stomach green apple beverages nor Panda Express and chocolate chip muffins.

[tuvor]

78. Peppermint Schnapps.

I'll say no more.

[Broken_Hero]

83. Tequila, hands down...

In june of 1996, we had a birthday party for two friends, who had a birthday one day apart from one another. While I was cooking, and drinking some brews, my friend Dave came over with a liter of tequila...since the mood at the party was dim, and i was having a ball being faded, while cooking, he came in the kitchen, and asked if i would have a shot of tequila with him. I grabbed a coffee cup, and said, here is my damn shot glass. After 5 coffee mugged, tequila shots, i was feeling, good...than my friend Buccweet came over, with another liter of tequila, and we repeated the same process...

Needless to say, I was sick the next day, and it took me forever to get the taste of cuervo outta my mouth...and at times, I can still taste it. And to this day, I don't drink tequila, unless its mixed with something else....
