One will not see the green fairy but they will get wasted pretty easily. The stuff tastes pleasant and not very alcoholic so it's easy to have a glass or two (or three) and it will knock you flat.

      Yep. Always the way. But then again Absinthe is wonderful. I once had 70% stuff here in the UK, and tried having a quadruple shot. It reached my stomach, but it closed up and wouldn't let it in, so it came back up then I forced it back down again. My voice was gone for 2 weeks afterwards, as it burned my entire throat. The 70%+ stuff is like American Moonshine - the stuff they drank here was probably not that high and they mixed it with water anyway.

    My stepfather was never a drunk. In fact, he was pretty uptight his entire life. However, one night he went out with a close friend of his, who was basically an uncle to my family. That night they had absinthe and got too drunk to drive themselves home, so my stepfather called his friend's son to pick them up. When they got home, my stepfather recalled that he had licked rainwater off of a car's windshield and found a man in a pink suit on top of a lamp post. Upon encountering this man, my stepfather said, "Hey, you're awesome." And the man replied, "No, YOU'RE awesome." After telling this story, my stepfather then threw up in the garden.
    Absinthe: Fun for the whole family.

      @@nonvalid962 - No it isn't. Absinthe is an herbal alcohol made from the psychoactive plant wormwood, among others. Wormwood on it's own is very psychoactive, I encourage you to read the erowid experience vaults, or try it yourself before disputing it because it sounds like the "absinthe" you've had didn't contain wormwood. Absinthe made from wormwood is indeed highly psychoactive. Alcohol acts as a carrier for the triterpenoid lactones found in wormwood, which are speculated to be psychoactive. Thujone, also found in wormwood acts as a GABA agonist (the opposite to alcohols mechanism), so it may in fact actually decrease the effects of the alcohol, but is found in small amounts so it's hard to say. Most absinthe is not really "absinthe" because it doesn't contain wormwood, just anise and other ingredients used to flavor absinthe. Real absinthe has wormwood, so until you try it you won't know. Wormwood is readily available, you can even soak it in some sort of vodka and make something similar.
      I reckon the folks in this video drank real absinthe.

    • @bentenboy13
      @bentenboy13 4 года назад +40

      @@anthonytooley1833 absinthe, like, isn't psychoactive at all though??? Wormwood is only psychoactive if you take enough to probably kill you since a chemical in it is toxic. Absinthe was labelled as halucinagenic by wine companies in the 19th century because is was a drink of artists and other common folk so they pushed out propoganda against it. It is in no way halucinagenic by itself and they were indeed overreacting to the drink by a lot. When it's diluted that much it isn't even that alcoholic by volume anymore. It's just a poor man's drink that was reinvented as artisinal and sold as a controversial drink. Scientific review has shown that the drink has no halucinagenic properties and that there is no grounds for that basis beyond "scientists" in the 70's and 80's who were avidly against the selling of absinthe who clinged to the publications of other anti absinthe scientists who were publishing papers to outline that absinthe may potentionally by halucinagenic due to the nature of one of the chemicals (the one you listed I forget the name already) to be in some way shape or form structurally similar to cannabis. Sooo... Do some reading up on a topic before you post dude. It even says in the video it's not hallucinogenic and I assume the producers at least googled it first and would have found that it's not.
      Edit: the ban wasn't even because of "hallucinations" it was because they claimed it made people violent and "beastly" and so they ended up propogating the idea that only people who are poor, violent, and criminal drink it so they could easier get it banned

    More Italian - Czech drinking drama: In Prague, 2002, last year of high school, had pure shots plus the flambe’ version with an absinthe drenched sugar cube set on fire inside a shot glass. You tap the glass with your palm, then slide it underneath a bit until it reaches your fingers. Then you spread them apart just a bit and take a full breath of those fumes and drink the rest. Ended up doing pole dance with my computer science teacher and another couple of friends. Then the whole class took a local bus back to the hotel. In the bus we realized one could remember where our stop was, and the only person who was able to communicate a bit in Czech was me. Made it safe as Absinthe speaks all languages. Amen.

    • @jimwinslett9583
      @jimwinslett9583 9 лет назад +83

      Gretchen Evoquer all absinthe is made with wormwood. The reason it's legal again is because the original ban was based on a BS move by French winemakers who saw absinthe as a threat to their business. YES, wormwood has thujone, a chemical that can cause psychosis, but (as was proven with a bottle of pre-ban absinthe and modern chemical analysis, which helped get the ban lifted) it's only in trace amounts. You'd die of alcohol poisoning several times before you got enough thujone from absinthe to see things. Absinthe is highly alcoholic and smooth enough to drink quickly, which is why it affects people like it does.

      Marka Biti that was funny but i don't think this happens. Absinth may be much more common to drink in europe than america but nobody is drinking it casually as their regular alcohol. At least not those who want a fuctioning liver after they turn 30 years old.

Since I was a rookie drinker because 16 ya know....I had no feel for how much I could drink or not. I ended up drinken half of the bottle on my own, like 7 or 8 shots. Well....lets say I puked 4 times in the night and the next day felt like I just warped through space and time without a spacesuit on.

      Insidious_void it tastes like pure turpentine lol. Me and my friends used to do it years ago for house parties and 4 disgusting shots later we would all be wasted.

      Cyanide is the word. And whenever I've had straight absinthe I got MESSED UP. I was merely pointing out that he's drinking straight from the bottle. That's all.
