Today's Bad Stories !

[Akonyl]

well you can definitely feel nauseated by movement with a hangover, but I don't think I've ever really had stomach issues because of one.

This is (/might be :V) my first hangover so I have no idea if this is normal for me or not. The only thing I do know is that last time I was sick it was exactly like this too. Except for the drinking the day before part

also, eat. Back in college when I planned on having a hangover the next day, I always had a bottle of V8 for the next morning, helps get those nutrients that were washed out back in :V

today's bad story: So there was this bug that popped up in let's say, version 1.3. I fix it and the fix is in 1.5. Two months later, I'm told the bugfix failed and after I try an hour or two to find out why, I realize they were running 1.3.1 instead. IT SAYS IT WASN'T FIXED TILL 1.5, Y U DO THAT D:

I am, though it feels like a waste on energy. Considered making some tea but the kitchen is too far away.

@Ako: V8?

There's a problem about eating though, I have nothing at all to eat since I was supposed to leave today. If I'm still sick (yeah, I think I'm sick, no way I could be hungover for this long) tomorrow I suppose I'll have to call a classmate and ask her to buy something edible and bring it here.

Didn't plan on being hungover though, days after drinking are exactly the same as normal days.

Maybe this is drinking karma All my four years worth of hangovers from moderate drinking is now hitting me at once.

@Ako: V8?

vegetable juice :V

vegetable juice :V

It's not the kind that tastes like cold minestrone soup, is it?

[Akonyl]

don't think I've had any minestrone soup, but looking at it on google, it probably tastes somewhat similar.

by no means do I like the taste of V8 enough that I would drink it normally, but when I have a hangover my body knows it wants it so it's pretty delicious. :V

[Abs.]

V8 is ALWAYS DELICIOUS

Also @nom: When hangover=true, tea=bad + water=good

[nomemory]

How could tea possibly be bad? I've always been taught to drink tea when being sick. I'm feeling somewhat better now though, well in a way at least. Not as nauseated as before, now I'm just dizzy when moving and freezing like hell. Feel kinda feverish too.

Hangover=dehydrated
Tea=diuretic

[Akonyl]

you drink tea when you're sick because the heat/steam deals with sinus congestion and things like honey etc (if you put them in your tea when sick) can help soothe your throat, but those generally aren't what are makin ya feel sick when you have a hangover. Curing hangovers is just about rehydrating and getting those nutrients back in.

I haven't heard of tea necessarily being bad for a hangover, however that might be because sugar is bad for hangovers (and can easily cause them if you have sugary drinks or snacks the night before), so iunno.
RM:
ah, nevermind :V
well in that case, I wouldn't say there's anything particularly harmful about drinking tea as logn as you drink more water than tea.

Unless you're British. Tea makes everything better. It's raining out? Have a cuppa! Doctor just told you you have the big C? Cuppa tea! House just fallen victim to the blitzkrieg? TEA... and biscuits.
