Hey DL - since you're from Serbia I thought I would ask: do you like schlivovitz (I think that's how it's spelled in English)? My best friend is from Serbia and he occasionally obtains a bottle from back home. Damn, that stuff is good. And potent.

May I answer that please?

Thanks.

Schlivovitz is something what we like to call,serbian brendy.
Its part of our nacional culture.And DL metioned it like Rakija aka. Raja.

Well all I know is that it tastes great and can also double as a paint thinner.

What he said.Rakija can be made from various plants.From apple(something like cider,but stronger),from plum(the above mentioned schlivovitz),peach,etc.It mostly resembles vodka and sake.And schlivovitz is my favourite.Although,as I said I prefer Shumadija's tea,its rakija made out of a pear,and then boiled.It does lose on its strenght,but it becomes much more sweeter and drinkable.

I've got news for you: Alcohol tastes bad. Really bad. In fact, it tastes so bad I can't eat 'em flamed foods since they still taste like the substance. Alcohol also destroys brain cells, causes an intoxitated state in which you can't control your actions AND makes you sick in the morning.
To conclude: Yes, I know what I'm missing.

My favorite nonalcoholic drinks on the other hand just taste great.

Well, this isn't quite correct. Alcohol does not destroy the brain cells, and no, it doesn't intoxicates your mind and makes you unable to control your actions. That's a myth. People mostly use this as an excuse.

It can make you sick if you drink too much, that's sure. Just don't drink more than 5 bottles of whisky and you should be fine. ;)

Veldrynus is right.In smaller doses alcochol doesnt do any harm.In fact it can be healthy and is sometimes highly recomended.And everything can kill you if you take to much.

It makes U sick in the morning if U don't drink enough water. Hangovers are basicaly dehydration.

Actually, that's really only part of it. The chemistry of a hangover is actually pretty complex. You can read more about it here:

If you drink in moderation, of course, you never have to worry about it.

Yeah, but if you can avoid it by just drinking water it means that dehydration is a big part of it.

Can't avoid it just by drinking water if you *really* drink to much.

If you really drink to much it's called something else.

Err... no? Drinking to much is a relative term, dependant on where you draw the "to much"-line. But however much you cross that line, it's still to much ;)

Drinking water certainly helps, but you can still be hung over even if you hydrate yourself well. It also depends highly on what exactly you're drinking.

And believe me I know the taste of alcohol,and I also know how I'm feeling in the morning,but you can't say it taste bad just because you don't like it. :mad:
