Here is an excerpt from another thread that I thought would be a good topic.
One thing that I found out that you don't do with Dr. Pepper is drink it with orange juice and vodka. We made these Dr. Screwdrivers that were really awesome my junior year. (Tent camping birthday party sleepover alcohol bash, replete with a Playgirl that someone snagged. Wasn't that interesting. ) We loved them and drank a lot of it. The only problem is - the Dr. Pepper interacts with the orange juice and you get this gas bubble that makes you feel like you are going to die. I'm not kidding. All I could think was "I'm going to die and my Dad is going to kill me again for drinking alcohol when he didn't know about it and looking at Playgirl!". Don't ever drink a Dr. Screwdriver. They are great going down, but they are hell about 15 minutes later and for about 2 hours after that!
How about y'all? What was the worst thing you ever drank? Was it something you invented or something you bought? Fill us all in!

I have no worst thing ever drank story, but I have a worst thing ever eaten story, hopefully that will be acceptable.
I should preface this by telling you that anyone who knows me would tell you that I have an "All or nothing" kind of attitude and USUALLY go overboard on anything I do
With that being said, every Christmas my younger sister and I get together and make Christmas cookies. We're REALLY bad at it, and they always turn out horribly. About the only think we've mastered are the peanut butter ones with the chocolate kiss on them.
Any way, one year we decided to make Molasses cookies. I LOVE molasses cookies, and had never made them.
So I bought a big jar of Molassas and when we made our cookies I realized I only needed about 1/3'rd of the jar for them.
My thinking was "Hey, I'm not gonna need molassas around the house for the next year, and I love the way it tastes, so lets use it up and make SUPER MOLASSAS cookies!"
OOOOOOOH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!
Too much Molasses is NOT A GOOD THING!
They came out like little black tar circles! When you would bite them goey strings of molasses would actually form betweent the peice in your mouth and the cookie in your hand, and they tasted like you were eating a peice of black-top from the road!
BAAAAAAAAAD!
Stupid me, it took about 8 cookies before I finally gave up trying to "learn to like em"
HAHAHA I think it was my Junior year as well- didn't make a gross drink like TRISH- but tp this day, nearly 19 yrs later....I cannot stand the smell of E & J brandy. I got SO SICK on that at a cemetary party. That stuff will NEVER TOUCH MY LIPS AGAIN.
OH AND MILLER LITE! THAT IS A SICK TERRIBLE BEER!!!! NEVER AGAIN!!

My experience is much like JD’s, though I loved the stuff initially. For a while my hard liquor of choice was goldschlagger. Yum.
There was a Christmas party at a friends house in college. I got there late because I had a Basketball Pep Band gig to take care of first(When you get tickets to IU’s Assembly hall for a Men’s B-Ball Game…EVERYTHING else is secondary)…so of course I had to catch up
They gave me a shot of Goldschlagger, and then another…in about an hour, I had 5 shots of the stuff…now you have to realize I was pretty much a lightweight & couldn’t afford enough alcohol to get me drunk for most of the year, so this was my first opportunity to really get wasted on virtually free alcohol.
Well the 5 shots went down well, but they certainly made a re-appearance an hour later. I found out the next day, that I hadn’t had 5 shots of the stuff, I had had 5 TRIPLE shots of the stuff…so 15 shots of GS in an hour…no wonder I thought I was going to die with my head in the toilet…
To this day I can’t even smell the stuff without getting sick.
My bad drink was butterscotch Schnapps. It was when I was 18 or so and on the 4th of July. We had a party at an abandoned trailer house,(bad idea in itself). I had this huge bottle of Schnapps in a brown paper bag and for some reason I decided to hold onto just the bag when I drank it. The bag tore and I was covered in butterscotch schnapps which wasn't the bad part. The bad part was when I woke up the next morning In the same trailer house and it was 103 degrees in there. Imagine what 103 degree butterscotch schnapps smells like in the morning after drinking it all night!

I had sort of the same experience as MO here back in college. I'd say "I only had my usual 3 drinks tonight!". Yea they were in QUART JUGS THO!!! Didn't even occur to me that yea, that's like the equivalent of 12 drinks in rocks glasses at the bar...whoopsy a bit of an accidental drinking problem there back in the day........now I pretty much only stick to beer and wine!

The worst thing I ever drank was A complete accident. I had let my buddy use my car to take one of our friends home who had too much to drink. About an hour later my buddy came back with my car and I decided It was time for me to go home. About halfway home I decided to take a drink of my water that I had left in my car. Aparantly my buddy had finished off the water and used the bottle as a spit cup for his Copenhagen habit. Needles to say I puked for about 20 minutes in the side of the road. How I made it to the side of the road I don't know ?
As a rule, I generally stay away from oddly colored drinks. The only exception is what they call "green f*ckers" here. It's the blue hawaiian schnapps and orange juice. It's not bad if you have to drink mixed drinks. I would rather have a beer or straight tequila any time. Gotta love the tekillya.

I admit, I like the traditionally "Girly" drinks, screwdrivers being one of my favorites. But I love the blue Electric Lemonades from TGIFridays.
That is something I don't get. Why do I have to drink stuff that tastes like urine in order for it to be considered a "manly" drink, but if it actually tastes good, and still f's you up, it's considered a "girly" drink....
Again, probably something that I should have written in the Shoutbox
The worst thing i ever drank was in fueterventura, in the canaries, we went out for a chinese meal and afterwards the girl brought out two bottles of clear spirts, one for the boys and one for the girls, well the one for the guys had a dead lizard in it!!! and ohh my god, It tasted so bad!! then being the fool that I am, my brothers wife didnt want her girls shot so I had that as well, luckly the girls one was quite nice, very fruity, but after about ten mins, I felt fairly drunk off those couple of shots and a couple of beers! must have been stong stuff whatever it was!
