Is it cheating to donate blood to get buzzed on less beer?
I just donated blood this morning, and one beer was enough to give me a buzz.

12. it happened while I was in grad school
I said I'd pass on the stupid juice and cookie prize and started to get the hell out of there for a smoke when I heard them say "If you smoke don't have a cigarette for about an hour". Whaaaa, I thought, as I was heading right out to have one. Which, after dismissing this cautionary advice as breezily as I had the sugars which it turns out had a purpose beyond rewarding citizenship in a corny way, I did. I lit up and took a drag and my knees disappeared from under me. I blacked out. In fact I had to be helped by a student. I had to try, it seems.

5. I didn't recommend it absolutely,
I only recommended it over IE-7

The lesser of two evils.

3. Cheating? No - rather call it foresight...If you are really after a cheap buzz,
Edited on Sat Jun-06-09 07:00 PM by old mark
give yourself a concussion - get loaded on one beer for about 3 days before it all heals up.
Hell, you are killing brain cells anyway, right? A few more won't hurt...

6. My pleasure!
They gave me a coupon for a box of six chocolate covered strawberries for my wife from Kabloom.

She loved them!
