What's the medication of choice when an American wakes up with the hangover from hell?

Usually Tylenol and lots of water.

I was going to agree with this comment, but now I'm stuck staring at your icon.

LMAO!!!! *snaps fingers in front of face*

Okay, that one isn't much better.

I don't know what you mean. ;-)

*resists urge to go watch that footage again*

Hm. Why would you ever do that? ;-)

(Oooh Pen is going to kill us! KEEL!)

*splutters!* What is going on here? Ogling, that's what! Honestly, step out for ~~a few minutes~~ three hours for a rehearsal, and when I come back, there is ogling.

*inspects icons* Hmm.

But they are very ogle-worthy!!!!

When I was younger, it would've been Alka-Seltzer (because it covered the headache and stomach issues). Assuming we're talking about sparkly boys, it would probably be just tylenol or advil (though Chris might still do the Alka-Seltzer bit, because he's not much younger than me).

I was groping for a name, and tylenol sounds familiar, so that'll do nicely. Thanks! (And I'll bear the Alka-Seltzer bit in mind for the future, too.)

I'm not sure if this works for everyone, but when I drank, I used to get up and take another shot of whatever I was drinking the night before.

My husband's hangover remedy of choice was tomato juice, tobasco sauce and a raw egg all blended together. I'm not sure how that worked for him, because just the thought of it made me sick, but it seemed to do the trick.

For the story in question, that was the first choice! Thanks for the answer. (I suspect the red drink with egg in it shocked the system into behaving itself. Ew.)

My hangover remedy of choice is grease, specifically in the form of Krystal burgers (which the boys are probably familiar with, they're all over the south) as big glass of water, and a big Coke. The other thing a lot of people I know do is two aspirin and a glass of water before bed.

(Krystal is a chain that serves little mini-burgers. They're tiny and very flat, and they come with mustard and onion only, even the cheese ones. You generally buy more than one - on a big hangover day, four krystals are not uncommon.)

Hmm. This will be filed away for the future - thank you!

For me, buckets of water and Vitamin C.

That's the sort of thing that, if you aren't too drunk to remember it at the time, should also be applied the night before, yes? Thanks for the reply.

Last time I got drunk, I did indeed drink gallons of water and take vitamin C. I still slept horribly and had heartburn, but it worked. No hangover!

bacon sarnies. With brown hp sauce ^^

Now, that's just making me hungry!

Try it. It works, ;)
