I had a party once which resulted in One person did 10 shots of 70% absinthe plus 6 beer/mixed drinks...... He threw up on my carpet that night.... Also all the people who did at least 2 shots or more of absinthe threw up that night..... lol.... lucky for me i did only one and i drank 7 beers/mixed drinks.... The absinthe was more for the game (we're playing street fighter and whoever loses had to do a shot). One of my other mates want to play fifa with me and whoever scores, the other person has to do a shot (eg if someone scores 4 goals, means 4 shot)..... I just thought..... fuck no.....
There was a time when this number was around 8 or 9 but I've cut back on my drinking quite a bit. I could probably get pretty drunk off 4-5 shots of 80 proof liquor. I usually stick with beer when I drink nowadays.
Depends on the drink, if it's my usual, I would guess about 4-5 to get some effects, 6-10 to get really buzzed, and anything above 11 to get wasted assuming I've not eaten anything or didn't take a break in between shots or something lol
