Where, Oh Where has my tolerance gone? Where, Oh Where can it be?
I've had 5 beers and I'm buzzing hard? Back in college it would have taken twice that to even get me a good hard buzz.

Have I become a puss?

2. Nah
Five beers is probably enough to get you drunk if you don't drink regularly.

3. Hey there, LostInAnomie!
I don't drink beer, so I'm distinctly NOT qualified to judge your level of tolerance; just wanted to stop by and say hi...

But I will say that you don't strike me as any sort of puss, or whatever!

10. Hey Peggy!
I'm sobering up a little bit now.

I guess if I were being practical getting drunk easily would be a blessing. That is just that fewer drinks I have to buy.

It still hurts the old ego though.

Maybe I'll have a tolerance built up for the wedding I'm in next week. :P

6. A 40 of what?
Iron city 40's shouldn't get you so bad, St. Ide's 8.2% on the other hand is like drinking 6 beers at once

5. Oh...that kind of tolerance.
When I first read the post, I was thinking that when I opened it someone was going to announce they just joined Focus on the Family. :evilgrin:

14. I don't think a gallon of Jamesons and a case of Harp could make any
fully evolved person join Focus on the family...just had to be sure.:smoke:

You want tolerance?
Oh, never mind. I'm not wasted enough yet.

12. Hi, evlbstrd!
How are you? Don't be drunk, please...think of your son, OK? You are too important to do bad things to yourself...

Welcome back, Peggy!
I saw your vacation photos. Looks like you had a great time in spite of the heat. Sorry I didn't post; I was at work at the time.
Nope, not drunk, but later this weekend I'll PM an update. A lot has happened here.
