Coondog Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Hug porcelain. Then, scrambled eggs with lotsa cheddar, maybe sprinkle in some HC if you're man enough for it for the flava and extra fat. Lotsa water, couple aspirin after you've eaten, and a hot shower That normally does it for me. Eat big lunch too... Â --cd. Quote

badvoodoo Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 What always works for me: Lots of water and sugar and a couple Ibuprofin. Â Hangovers are essentially a mixture of toxins generated by alcohol and your body being deprived of proper hydration and sugars. The water will help balance the fluids as they're processed by the liver and kidneys and help flush the toxins, and the sugar will replentish the glucose that alcohol deprives your system. And of course the Ibuprofin helps to relieve the headache. Quote
slothrop Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Sugar will tax your liver the same way that fruity girly drinks make for a worse hangover. I just drink lots of water. Quote
eternalX Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 get some lemon in that water to activate your liver. Quote
slothrop Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Drink a couple bottles of Pedialyte. Â The smell of that stuff makes me want to , but if you can choke it down it's good for you. Quote
assmonkey Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Over hydrate. Multi-vitamin. A greasy omelette with bacon on the side. Sleep. Â Go for a 30 minute walk in the sun. It will help. Â - a s s m n k e y Quote
klenke Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 What about a raw egg from a glass (sans shell, of course)? Or is that an "old drunken wive's tale?" Quote
bird Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 Sometimes my hangovers are so bad I can't even hold down water until 10 or 11 o'clock the next night. If I knew how to set up an IV for myself I would do that for rehydration... but then again if you go down that road it seems like it would just speed your way to alcoholism. A little pain is probably good for you to keep your drinking in check. Â If you can hold down food Dick's cheeseburgers do the trick for me. Quote
jon Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 You drink a bottle of pedialyte before you go to bed you won't have a hangover, it's almost guaranteed. I think the shit tastes fine, it's just spensive. Quote
kurthicks Posted May 14, 2004 Posted May 14, 2004 water, greasy food, some diluted gatorade, and a nap. when i wake up i'm good to go. Â otherwise the best hangover cure that i've ever found is to go climbing, it never fails... Quote
snugtop Posted May 15, 2004 Author Posted May 15, 2004 Thanks guys, a bubble tea, heaps of guacamole, scrambled eggs and lots of did the trick. I'll drink to that. Quote

klenke Posted May 16, 2004 Posted May 16, 2004 Are you sure, Icegirly? Better check your source and make sure it isn't based on the older source of Jane Ace. I have always assumed it was Jane Ace (1900/05 - 1974) and a simple websearch seems to bear this out in many examples. I'm talking about the "Time wounds all heels" quote only. I don't know, I could be wrong. Â Some other Jane-isms: "Familiarity breeds attempt." "Home wasn't built in a day." "Take the bitter with the better." Â A good biography of Jane & Goodman Ace. Quote
