The People's Hero Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 Suggest your weird and wonderful hangover cures. Suffering.
Lord Nibblington Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 Suggest your weird and wonderful hangover cures. Suffering. Get some salt and vinegar squares. They're magical. Also I'm a fan of having a nice good tasty piece of toast as well. And perhaps some kind of amalgamation of the two might be in order. Or just go and drink more. Or got back to bed. Mix and Match your favourites!
Manwell Pablo Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 I don't have that option. Water, bacon, coffee, sleep.
The People's Hero Posted 1 December 2006 Author Posted 1 December 2006 My usual approach is to have a bag a salt n vinegar squares, a can of coke (no imitation stuff) and a box of green n orange tic tacs. Recently though, it's not working and I'm looking for alternatives. Back to bed would be brilliant. Unfortunately I'm running the office today. And by running the office I mean sitting in the corner, bidding for stuff I don't really want on ebay, posting on foxestalk and glaring at my employees from time to time.
Dr The Singh Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 Get some salt and vinegar squares. They're magical. Also I'm a fan of having a nice good tasty piece of toast as well. And perhaps some kind of amalgamation of the two might be in order. Or just go and drink more. Or got back to bed. Mix and Match your favourites! Some good ideas there. I would add that you need liquids (water and salt) or alkeseltzers, a good meal to soak up the acid in your stomach!!! Also sleep!!! It usually does the trick for me, I was at a wedding last week, and was drinking like alcohol was going to run out for 3 nights on the trott, and it worked for me!!!
hairy Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 Easy a full fat coke and a chocolate bar of your choice (i.e. Lion Bar, Mars, Snicker etc etc). Get the sugar back in your system and that heart pumping.

Get the sugar back in your system and that heart pumping. Now, that's suggestion I like. Will a sausage, onion, mayonnaise, brown sauce and black pepper toasted sandwich make me feel better or worse?
The People's Hero Posted 1 December 2006 Author Posted 1 December 2006 Sex I'd say that's a forlorn hope right now!
Janx Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 2 painkillers pre-bed, set alarm for 5 am, 2 more painkillers and a piss, go back to sleep. Wake up eat food,(not dairy) drink diarlyte sachet, black coffee and 4 hrs after last pills take 2 more, black coffee is an accelerant so painkillers go to work fast. Keep drinking flat coke/lemonade... its more caffeine and is more isotonic than water. Sip it if you are queasy. to make a coke flat add sugar (stand well back and have a cloth handy to mop up the resultant fizz) the added sugar also helps. Keep drinking the above concoction... there ya go! The Janxmeister proven hangover cure. Alternatively get to the PUB... Pub O clock today......1pm

Zingari Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 at what star rating do you consider yourself ? Hangover ratings * 1 star hangover No pain. no real feeling of illness. You slept in your own bed and when you woke up there were no traffic cones in there with you. You are still able to function relatively well on the energy stored up from all those vodka redbulls. However, you can drink 10 bottles of water and still feel as parched as the Sahara . Even vegetarians are craving a Cheeseburger and a bag of fries. ** 2 star hangover No pain, but something is definitely amiss. You may look okay but you have the attention span and mental capacity of a stapler. The coffee you hug to try and remain focused is only exacerbating your rumbling gut, which is craving a full English breakfast. Although you have a nice demeanour about the office, you are costing your employer valuable money because all you really can handle is some light filing, followed by aimlessly surfing the net and writing junk e-mails. *** 3 star hangover Slight headache. stomach feels crap. You are definitely a space cadet and not so productive. Anytime a girl or lad walks by you gag because the perfume/aftershave reminds you of the random gin shots you did with your alcoholic friends after the bouncer kicked you out at 1:45 am . Life would be better right now if you were in your bed with a dozen doughnuts and a litre of coke watching daytime TV. You've had 4 cups of coffee, a gallon of water, 2 Sausage Rolls and a litre of diet coke yet you haven't peed once. **** 4 star hangover You have lost the will to live. Your head is throbbing and you can't speak too quickly or else you might spew. Your boss has already lambasted you for being late and has given you a lecture for reeking of booze. You wore nice clothes, but you smell of socks, and you can't hide the fact that you either missed an oh-so crucial spot shaving or it looks like you put your make-up on while riding the dodgems (depending on your gender). Your teeth have their own individual sweaters. Your eyes look like one big vein and your hairstyle makes you look like a reject from a second-grade class circa 1976. You would give a weeks pay for one of the following - home time, a doughnut and somewhere to be alone, or a Time Machine so you could go back and NOT have gone out the night before. You scare small children in the street just by walking past them. **** 5 star hangover You have a second heartbeat in your head, which is actually annoying the employee who sits next to you. Vodka vapour is seeping out of every pore and making you dizzy. You still have toothpaste crust in the corners of your mouth from brushing your teeth. Your body has lost the ability to generate saliva, so your tongue is suffocating you. You'd cry but that would take the last drop of moisture left in your body. Death seems pretty good right now. Your boss doesn't even get mad at you and your co-workers think that your dog just died because you look so pathetic. You should have called in sick because, let's face it, all you can manage to do is breathe ..... very gently. ****** 6 star hangover You arrive home and climb into bed. Sleep comes instantly, as you were fighting it all the way home in the taxi. You get about 2 hours sleep until the noises inside your head wake you up. You notice that your bed has been cleared for take off and is flying relentlessly around the room. No matter what you do you now, you're going to chuck. You stumble out of bed and now find that your room is in a yacht under full sail. After walking along the skirting boards on alternating walls knocking off all the pictures, you find the toilet. If you are lucky you will remember to lift the lid before you spontaneously explode and wake the whole house up with your impersonation of walrus mating calls. You sit there on the floor in your undies, cuddling the only friend in the world you have left (the toilet), randomly continuing to make the walrus noises, spitting, and farting. Help usually comes at this stage, even if it is short lived. Tears stream down your face and your abdomen hurts. Help now turns into abuse and he/she usually goes back to bed leaving you there in the dark. With your stomach totally empty, your spontaneous eruptions have died back to 15-minute intervals, but your body won't relent. You are convinced that you are starting to turn yourself inside out and swear that you saw your tonsils shoot out of your mouth on the last occasion. It is now dawn and you pass your disgusted partner getting up for the day as you try to climb into bed. She/he abuses you again for trying to get into bed with lumpy bits of dried vomit in your hair. You reluctantly accept their advice and have a shower in exchange for them driving you to the hospital. Work is not an option. The whole day is spent trying to avoid anything that might make you sick again, like moving. You vow never to touch a drop again and who knows for the next two or three hours at least you might even succeed. OK, now hands up all those who have never had a six star hangover!! Thought so!!
Janx Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 Alternatley just drink 3 pints of water when you get in from the pub and there is no hangover to cure. yeah right! but probably a pissed bed... and who the feck remembers to drink 3 pints of water.... or can be arsed on a gut full of beer....
holly Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 pint of orange juice! an apple then hit the bad stuff, salt and vinegar anything always seems to do the trick then some nice cold coke...
The People's Hero Posted 1 December 2006 Author Posted 1 December 2006 I'm on the one where you feel like sh it, everything is conspiring against you, your mouth tastes like shit no matter how many mints you eat or how many times you brush your teeth, I woke up next to a perfectly made sandwich which I hadn't touched but appeared to contain pork/ham/turkey, marmalade, mayonnaise and pepper... disgusting. Mobile full of random texts I don't remember sending. Woken up to be mocked by my mother who claims I'd rabbled on for about 20 minutes to her that I had to go to sleep because there was a timing device on my door with some sort of laser. Additionally, I have no money, a champagne (although probably cheap nasty sparkling wine/cava) in my pocket and a number scribbled on a bit of paper with the name Rob on it. Now I definitely already have his number and he'd know that. Strangely it appears that last night, having received a present from a friend of mine whilst on the lash, I got home and must have gone to my car and hung the shirt he'd bought me on a hanger in the back of my car, on the hook. It remains there now. I think the best part though is that my study stuff was out in the lounge. I'd got it out of my car and must have tried to do some studying in the lounge. I know this because I have written some notes and they are actually quite good. Anyway... I feel shit My mouth tastes nasty Irritable Headache (pounding) Inability to use correct words. No feeling of sickness.
Lord Nibblington Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 Now, that's suggestion I like. Will a sausage, onion, mayonnaise, brown sauce and black pepper toasted sandwich make me feel better or worse? I'd say yes. But then I'm not the one with a hangover and it's not my stomach that's going to be going nuts!
Daggers Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 Sex I'd say that's a forlorn hope right now! You don't have a toilet?
The People's Hero Posted 1 December 2006 Author Posted 1 December 2006 yeah right! but probably a pissed bed... and who the feck remembers to drink 3 pints of water.... or can be arsed on a gut full of beer.... I remembered to make a cup of tea. I just didn't drink it.

hairy Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 Alternatley just drink 3 pints of water when you get in from the pub and there is no hangover to cure. Thats what I do. Sometimes you forget and then its the coke and chocolate which works everytime. TPH steer clear of fatty foods they will only make you feel worse.
The People's Hero Posted 1 December 2006 Author Posted 1 December 2006 I have the following. One sausage and bacon toastie with brown sauce. One banana. One bag of s&v squares. One boost bar (with added guarana - wow!) One can of cherry coke One can of cream soda. Will let you know how I get on.
Manwell Pablo Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 Thats what I do. Sometimes you forget and then its the coke and chocolate which works everytime. TPH steer clear of fatty foods they will only make you feel worse. It's the best way isn't it? The worst hangover I've had is a level 5 and that was a good 14 months ago.
Janx Posted 1 December 2006 Posted 1 December 2006 It's the best way isn't it? The worst hangover I've had is a level 5 and that was a good 14 months ago. Sorry but level 6 is what I recognise as a hangover, the rest are just feeling a bit "off" or "muzzy" etc.
