Tequila doesn’t make people drunk, people make people drunk?

I have a feeling Ian didn’t actually read the post.

Alcohol abuse is always a BAD thing, not tequila by itself. Tequila is no stronger, no worse and no more dangerous than any other distilled liquor.

There is NO WORM in tequila, never has been, never will be.

100% agave tequila has fewer cogeners than beer, wine or most other spirits, so it’s LESS likely to cause a hangover than the standard part drink.

I agree that tequila in general is a bad thing, but good tequila can be a very good thing. I personally won’t touch tequila unless it’s extremely high quality, and I’ve never had a problem. (Part of the joy of never paying for my own alcohol.) Rum, on the other hand, is a different story….

Anybody who remembers that party ‘en total’ is a liar. It was great/terrible. Never did get my socks back. Few years ago I polished off a bottle and ate the resident Worm on my last night in the States. If those pictures ever reach this part of the world I’m finished. Good times =).

Savage. I blame Savage. “You Bring the Limes” he said.

And the stuff tastes rancid anyway.

While I have heard many stories of tequila nightmares, I’ve been lucky enough to never suffer them myself, so I still think of it as a friendly drink. Of course I eat the entire lemon – rind and all, so I may be a flawed statistic.

Howandorever, I maintain that Terrorvision got it right – “Tequila – it makes me happy!”

The only time I ever saw a friend end up in hospital was after THREE tequila shots. That’s all. But then everyone else (not me TG) who drank tequila that night threw up massively so I think maybe it was a bad bottle. Or something.
My only happy tequila time was drinking it in massive quantities from a shared bottle (ew) at a house party and giggling all the way home. And then no hangover. Joyous occasion for someone who was once paralysed and sick from 4 pints of beer.

Some of the best nights I have been at have had tequila in vast amounts. It’s never been much worse for me than comparable nights with other spirits.
