When everything is examined for what it really is, the only thing that I can truly claim as my own is the mistakes that I have made.

Ahahahahahaha, but seriously now...
I'm a lucky bastard too, I don't get the hardcore hangovers. Usually.

If you are not a complete dumbass and drink like, one or two glasses of water for each beer, YOU WILL NOT HAVE A HANGOVER.
A HANGOVER IS SIMPLY DEHYDRATION FROM YOUR BODY TRYING TO GET RID OF ALL THAT POISON YOU INGEST.
As long as most of it doesn't come out the way it came in (ala Jim Breuer), then it comes out the OTHER end, as lots and LOTS of pee.
So drink water when you' drinkin' yo' booze and you won't need the hair of the dog that bit you. Doesn't mean you won't wake up next to a dog, but that's a totally different subject...
Stay tuned for the next episode of... miNus's guide!
Well, at least for me.
You just don't get a hangover.
Oh wait... I guess this applies only to normal people.

I very rarely get shitfaced though, and as far as I can remember, the few times I've been hungover had something to do with actually going to sleep drunk: spinning...clinging to the sheets…desperately trying to steer…
BTW, has anyone else tried menudo? Blecch. People try to peddle it as "the perfect hangover cure," but that’s a crock of shit. If you're not familiar, menudo is a foul fucking broth made with tripe, a COW HOOF, and who knows what else. The stuff I tried had the consistency of mud, and it tasted like poo. Many of my good toasty Mexican friends tell me it must have been "bad menudo," but I don't believe them. The mere thought of a filthy cow hoof bobbing up and down in a boiling tub of tripe makes me ill.
In fact, I will go so far as to say menudo made me sicker than the booze. Must have been the hoof.
The problem is not how to cure a hangover, the problem is how to reach that perfect drunken state, where you're pleasantly buzzed for the rest of the night...A little less, and you're jittery as hell to get some more booze. A little more, and you're on the table with your pants falling down, your ass showing, screaming obscenities about the communists...
Now, in the middle there is pure drunken heaven, where you can do most anything easily, but you feel great...
This is the goal you should all set for yourselves:
Find the right combination and dosage of various alcoholic drinks.
The next step is to get that one chick you've been waiting for to the same level of drunkenness, and you're set.
Happy drinking!

i can't stop
1. Taking aspirin is good if you take it *before* you get a hangover. It thins your blood so you don't get as dehydrated while you sleep.
2. Take Tylenol and drink lots of water if you already *have* a hangover. Aspirin and ibuprofen make nausea worse. Aspirin can help by thinning your blood, but you only need half a tablet. Any more & you'll probably be worshipping the porcelain god.
3. The best cure, if you don't need to go to work or can get out of it - take two tylenol, half an aspirin, 50mg of Benadryl, and drink a shitload of water. Munch on crackers or something while you wait for the Benadryl to kick in. In about 30 minutes it will be naptime. After nap is over, drink some coffee to shake off residual grogginess. Presto! Hangover is gone, and you barely knew you had one!
This is also good for brutal sinus headaches, except take two aspirin instead of 0.5, and add in 60mg of Sudafed.
4. If you have to go to work, take Excedrin, drink a lot of water, and *make sure* to eat something. You'll still be hung over, but you'll be functional.
and here i thought tripe was cow intestine
