Just to try it, and i want to get a little buzzed. Not drunk. If i'm home alone some day for about 4 hours, is that a good opportunity to try it?

My parents have some chardonnay in the kitchen almost always, should I just pour about 4 ounces and drink it? Or should I try a can of beer...and do I need to chase it with something?

I've never done this, obviously

First of all, don't do it alone.

If I were you I would have someone be there with you to make sure you're ok.


-- Posted by Lihiro at 6:10 pm on Sep. 1, 2008

Eww, alcohol.


-- Posted by melroy at 6:11 pm on Sep. 1, 2008

maybe just a lil. how old are you anyways?


-- Posted by greatescape at 6:11 pm on Sep. 1, 2008

You dont need to chase wine or beer...

And you wont feel anything off what you are planning on drinking most likely

Take it slowly the first time, half a bottle will wreck you. Go for a large glass and see how you feel.


-- Posted by Neodymie at 6:11 pm on Sep. 1, 2008

You dont like have any friends to do it with or something?

Get a sitter, drink a little.

Wine will get you drunk quicker than beer, but it's best to do it with friends to be honest. It's more of a controlled environment and they can take care of you if you go overboard. And I doubt 4 fl oz will do much to you (well of beer anyway). One glass of wine is more than 4 oz and even then for someone who's never tried it I'd drink it slowly, the effects won't be immediate.

Personally, I would avoid beer.

A good size glass of wine should be fine.

I'd try beer over wine.


-- Posted by jacowy at 6:14 pm on Sep. 1, 2008

my friends dont share the same moral values as me...(they would think i'm slipping into the bad-crowd). I just want to try it, i dont want to go somewhere further with it.

And i'm 17. And what kind of alchol should I start out with and how much of it?


-- Posted by tell me again at 6:14 pm on Sep. 1, 2008

A beer would probably have less of an effect. Half of the experience is social though, so maybe try to get someone to drink with you? Different alcohol taste very different too. I'm not sure which taste you'd prefer more - beer or chardonnay.

If you do it alone it might just be boring and disappointing. And be careful not to pour too much in case your parents notice.

Beer is an acquired taste, everyone hates it the first time. Especially if it's warm nowadays I have at least one a few times a week.

Don't do it alone, that's lame.


-- Posted by mendingheart518 at 6:18 pm on Sep. 1, 2008

if it's ur very first time, I wouldn't do it by yourself, at least have a close friend or somebody with you


-- Posted by JohnQ at 6:19 pm on Sep. 1, 2008

You'll prolly throw up an say you're never going to do it again, but you will.. you always do >_>

you're 17 and your friends would think you are in the wrong crowd? WTF

I go to a preppy private school and 9/10 people drink...


-- Posted by Poker Shark at 12:41 am on Sep. 2, 2008

Your first time drinking should be with your friends at a party or the beach or something, not by yourself in the kitchen. Also get alcohol you will like eg: mixers not beer or wine.

Hahaha I thought you would be like 12. Who're your friends? The Tellitubbies?  Damn.  Most well adjusted kids your age are into vodka and shit.  Thus, for you, I'd recommend sparkling grape juice.


-- Posted by jacowy at 7:46 pm on Sep. 2, 2008

haha, that's pathetic. "Most well adjusted kids are into vodka and shit." That's pretty baseless, I know many popular and well-adjusted kids (i.e., myself, with all due humility) who aren't into alcohol at all. You're just spouting crap, wallop.


-- Posted by tell me again at 8:11 pm on Sep. 2, 2008

You do have to admit it's unusual, though.

So, didya try any?


-- Posted by Louiise at 6:31 am on Sep. 4, 2008

go for winee :) & do it with friends.

Chill asswipe. I didn't say all. But this kid's 17 and hasn't even tried it? And his friends'll think he's in the "bad crowd" if he tries it? Damn. I'd say 95% of kids that I went to highschool with had gotten shitfaced even before starting highschool. The " bad crowd" where I went were heroin dealers and meth addicts. And I live in an extremely affluent town in American suburbia. This kid's probably a senior in highschool and is asking for advice on how to sneak wine out of his parents liquor cabinet? Yeah, I think that qualifies as being pretty fucking weird.


-- Posted by Amay at 8:04 am on Sep. 6, 2008

I would drink it slowly... and if you wanna feel light headed and buzzed, drink jack daniels.
