I can drink 10 pints and still be sober
Discussion
I can't actually the truth is 3 pints and i'm wasted.
But i often hear the boast the someone can drink ten pints and still be sober.
I don't understand why i am meant to be impressed by this as it just means they have to spend alot more money in the pub and will probably be needing a new liver before they are 40.
So am i the only one that on hearing the boast of "I can drink ten mights and still be sober" that thinks to themselves, you poor bugger that must be terrible.
I like not being able to hold my drink its far cheaper and i don't end up covered in my own vomit in a police cell.

I used to have a massive tolerance to vodka / pints etc.
Well not massive but i could go through half a bottle (1l) of vodka before a night out & some beers & i'd barely even feel tipsy.
I stopped drinking for 4 months & now after that amount i'm a mess.
I proved i can't drink 10 pints & be sober whilst at the beer festival this weekned.
I was extreemly pissed!

I think the truth is they might think they're still sober, but actually, you should ask an independent non-drinking bystander for their opinion But i often hear the boast the someone can drink ten pints and still be sober.

Varies hugely between drinks and nights for me. Sometimes on 3 pints of cider (can't stand beer 
) I'll be gone, other times I'll end up having 8 or 9 and still be alright. When I was (embarrasingly) younger I could drink fairly ridiculous amounts of whiskey, especially given my age. Can't any more, which is probably a good thing

Can't any more, which is probably a good thing I can drink carling all night and be fine however shortly after opening a 2nd bottle of wine* I have been known to launch in to the "guess the body part" game with the Mrs and a camera phone**.
*Wine and lager are not consumed on the same night
**Women don't tend to find these games as funny as a pissed bloke

with you on that one,) I'll be gone, other times I'll end up having 8 or 9 and still be alright. When I was (embarrasingly) younger I could drink fairly ridiculous amounts of whiskey, especially given my age. Can't any more, which is probably a good thing some nights, if i'm not really in the mood, very little and i'm anyones, other nights i smash it back all night long and go home 'feeling' sober enough to drive (obviously i don't drive, merely wishing to illustrate the point that i feel 100%)
There is a 50 odd year old farmer that goes into my local pub. He drinks, and I get you not, 12 - 15 pints of guiness in one session. I have only ever seen him drunk once in all the time I have being going in there and that was a Sunday afternoon/Sunday night session.
I on the other hand can only drink about 4/5 pints in a night before I feel pissed and bloated.

10 pints is getting near my limit for feeling too bloated, not exactly sober after I drink that much but far from out of it.
Usually were it goes wrong for me is after the shots start, normally a couple of hours thinking I'm far too sober. Followed by the next couple of hours convinced somebody changed the tendons in my legs into elastic bands
