I think it was the peanuts I had for lunch.

2. Perhaps something was wrong with the ice-cubes?
:D

3. I bet that's it!
I got hold of some bad water.

Thanks! I'll call the landlord tomorrow and have them do a water check.

4. Did you have lemons or limes?
They must have been tainted with some mysterious citrus bacteria.

Or perhaps you got a bad batch of tonic.

5. You know, it could be the olives
it's gotta be either bad ice cubes, or bad olives.

6. Perhaps it is!
Those pimentos are known for doing funky things to the stomach! You'll have to switch to onions. :toast:

I just know it wasn't the gin! I presume you're drinking some good shit like Tanqueray (my personal fave).

7. Well, I don't think it was the olives. Another 12 litres, and still sick.
I had another 12 litres last night, without olives (part of my scientific training involved learning how to eliminate variables), and I'm as sick to my stomach now as I when I posted this thread.

I don't get it.

I'll have to try now to eliminate the ice cubes, and see if maybe the problem is bad ice. I used new ice cubes last night, but I used the old trays to make them, so there might be something in the tray.

8. Maybe it's sabotage!
Someone is sneaking a secret stomach-sickener into your gin when you are not looking!

9. I don't normally like to interfere in these matters but 12 liters is too..
much.

Please try to limit yourself to 1 or 2 liters of gin.

10. Oh, sure - are you a doctor? Why should I trust your "diagnosis"
Edited on Fri May-13-05 10:10 AM by Rabrrrrrr
more than the bad ice one?

Bad ice or sabatoge seem much more scientifically sound than "i drank too much".

On the Internets, anyone can play doctor.

:silly:

11. Taco bell, dude...
Hair o the dog. Taco bell cures all hangover ills. That and a big glass of ice water and aspirin.
