Anyone drinking tequila this weekend?  

A friend of mine is having the boys over on Saturday for De La Hoya/Mayweather(edit spelling!)/Tequila.

The last time I drank tequila was in 1986....

It was a poorly planned evening (as usual) as I was starting a new job the next morning at 9. It was right when 2 Fingers Tequila came out and they had these real cool black bottles. So, we were like, "That looks cool to drink" and we commenced to doing shots in my bedroom, and, the next thing I know, I woke up at 10 AM and there were lime rinds all over my room, practically a beach of salt on the hardwood floor, and the fan in my room (one of those small desk fans) was on the floor, with a blade missing, and the base was revolving in a circle around the 2 blades (sort of hard to explain) and I had a gash down the bridge of my nose that had dried and stuck to my pillow case.

So, to answer your question, I won't be drinking tequila over the weekend.

I agree with Tracy. I will NOT be drinking Tequila. And Brian is right, the after taste is puke. I think Tracy's story beats mine, but I'm pretty close.

Last time I touched the filthy, evil stuff was HS graduation. Don't remember too much other then I can NEVER drink Tequila again, or rum or eat Salsa Rio Doritos. I woke up 3 days later with a garbage bag on my head, a missing person's call into the police, and the worst hangover in the world, and I think my butt hurt. That last one's a rumor.....Jose is a very bad man.

I have not done a shot of liquor in over a year!   :) (when you fall down and hit your head on a piece of concrete that leaves somewhat of a lasting impression).   ;)  I suppose bh I could promise to stay seated?   :D

Spent some time in Mexico, and enjoyed both tequila and mezcal.  Tried to stick to añejo or reposado for sippin' rather than white/gold tequila shots with lime.

Even sipping expensive añejo can cause accidents, though.  There's a bar in Guadalajara to which I can never return...  :-/

Have a great day, guys: Derby / de la Hoya / Cinco all in one?  Gonna be some sore heads tomorrow.

All i remember is the sound of plastic maroccas and some plastic jewelry with a flashing red light around my neck. My legs feel like they must have done a lot of dancing. Speedy hangover recoveries to you all.

Here comes my mum, she knows what I've done.
Just tell them the truth, you know where he's from.
You've blackened our name, you should be ashamed!
If only your father could see you now,
He'd break down and he'd throw you out for sure,
I never should have let you out tonight!

;D

Nice!   ;D

are you mocking me? :-[
it was an area of town that the police don't circulate that often (Allston) and also home to many confused 20-something year olds, frseh out of college.  So it technically wasn't a "High school party".  It turns out they didn't even give a shit - they just wanted people out because there were like... probably close to 225 people there... and we were making too much noise.  I was just cornered in the back with a bunch of kids i didn't know, up against a fence.
i'm not as hardcore as i made myself out to be.  ;)

but i dont think i'm up to date on my tetnis (sp?) shot which could cause some troubles... i hope it's not infected, oh boy

No, I'm not mocking you.  If I were mocking you I probably would have said:
Nice  ::)
I miss going to parties that got broken up by the cops.  I used to do it all the time when i was a bit younger, but these days i just have to live vicariously through the stories of others.  Sounds like a great party.
