Scientists Discover Booze That Won't Give You a Hangover
Kwang-il Kwon and Hye Gwang Jeong of Chungnam National University have discovered that drinking alcohol with oxygen bubbles added leads to fewer hangovers and a shorter sobering up time. People drinking the bubbly booze sobered up 20-30 minutes faster and had less severe and fewer hangovers than people who drank the non-fizzy stuff. Kwon said: "The oxygen-enriched alcohol beverage reduces plasma alcohol concentrations faster than a normal dissolved-oxygen alcohol beverage does. This could provide both clinical and real-life significance. The oxygen-enriched alcohol beverage would allow individuals to become sober faster, and reduce the side effects of acetaldehyde without a significant difference in alcohol's effects. Furthermore, the reduced time to a lower BAC may reduce alcohol-related accidents."
No hangover - Good
Faster sober - Bad
You're not done mister, get back to the lab.

If I want to be sober, I just won't drink. However, when I do drink, (I won't drive) I want to be drunk and stay drunk. I want to be drunk all night and when I wake upside down in a sleeping bag trying to get it open with my toes, I want to wonder how I got there and not be able to remember. This just takes all the fun out of drinking.
no he meant 160 Proof, he doesn't f$%# around when it comes to Vodka.
No, I did mean 80%. It kicks ass ;)
You can get the same thing with an alcohol enema.
And we've all been there, right?!?
Right...?

Now that I think about it, I'm pretty sure everything I just said is completely wrong.
I’d be able to tell a story about Everclear, if only I remembered it.

A solution to the problem does exist, though. It's called "everything in moderation."
... including moderation.
I find I personally like my moderation in moderate amounts.

Who cares what the researchers say.
I'm going to have to do my own research. In cases like this, first hand knowledge is the only way to go.
If someone is passing you on the right, you are an asshole for driving in the wrong lane.
