Yes. Could be sulfites in it. -- nm - the liioulu with stuffed nose Jan 2, 17:00
For some reason, champagne always gives me a hangover. -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jan 2, 16:50 23

  - IT'S NOT LEPROSY! -- nm - ReluctantCynic Jan 2, 17:02 4
    - I was kidding about the liver function, but it is leprosy. -- nm - loosilu Jan 2, 17:03 3
      - HHhmmmm ... if it is, I suppose that would be a good enough reason to move to Hawaii. - ReluctantCynic Jan 2, 17:12 2

  - Fascinating! -- nm - Old Guy in Geico Commercials Jan 2, 16:57
- I really think that was it because I ate before and after, had bottle of water, and only had 4 drinks. Normal is 5. Tonight I'm just having 2. - Qale Jan 2, 16:54 13
  - And the bubbles push more alcohol into your system. - the liioulu with stuffed nose Jan 2, 17:02 12
    - I think I should sumbit the myth to Jamie and Adam. They *love* alcohol myths. - Qale Jan 2, 17:06 2

      - aw, bummer. -- nm - loosilu Jan 2, 17:10
    - I don't see how that would work, though. -- nm - loosilu Jan 2, 17:02 8
      - It's what "they" say. However I don't really know who "they" are and if there are scientific studies to back them up. - the liioulu with stuffed nose Jan 2, 17:08 7
        
        I don't think there are any studies regarding what kind of alcohol gives worse hangovers. I think it hasn't been replicated. - loosilu Jan 2, 17:09 6
        
        I believe it all comes down to sugar content. The more sugary, the worse the hangover. - Dr.Vermin Jan 2, 17:14 1

        I have never noticed that in myself. In fact I seem to get drunker when I'm concentrating on one drink. -- nm - loosilu Jan 2, 17:13 1
        
        Ahem!!! ;) - the liioulu with stuffed nose Jan 2, 17:22
there's only one way to be sure. Test drinking! -- nm - CQ Jan 2, 16:49 1
