Not sure which I fall into - maybe both but I very rarely get a hangover (yes this does encourage/ allow school night drinking - inc now) I have to drink either red wine or over 8 (uk - 568ml) pints of 5%abv lager to start to get fraction of a hangover the next day (starting at a slight thick head level) incedently for me, eating stuff with sugar and alchol = major acid reflux this took ages to figure out why sometime I was throwing up in the middle of the night (no other symtoms) another thing that is fairly obivious to me now is how proportional the effect is of the amount of food eaten before drinking and the speed of which you get drunk. This can be used to great effect for big drinking days (eg stag do) I could easily drink all day comsuming > 15 (uk - 568ml, 5% abv) pints if I keep a level of food in my stomache

I am guessing you are less than 30 years old? give it 5-10 years and it'll be much more painful after a heavy night of drinking. sugar and alcohol are both metabolized by the liver, and large amounts of both/either will make you feel poorly. age and frequent use of alcohol and junk food will just wear your body out sooner. the feeling of being drunk is most noticeable when your blood alcohol content is rising, aka when you drink quickly on an empty stomach. but you can have a nice buzz going all day with proper planning and eating beforehand. I realize after typing this out it sounds a bit preachy, but take it as a caution from someone who felt invincible in their 20s

  nope - well over 50 because I understand how my body works with alcohol, I can now manage my alcohol better (with food/ sugar) I can drink very much more now forgot to mention - I ALWAYS have one month off drinking (typ January) and Oktoberfest is the best place in the world - make sure you dress up properly though
