So I got robbed yesterday (drinks involved)
Hello everyone this is my first post in the "General" type form and since anything goes I'm gonna leave this here.
So yesterday I met some friends to watch the football match and after 3 pints, the tequila shots got poured. I was at the usual pubs with my friends and my nice eMTB, which is always securely chained up right in front of the bar with loads of people around. Long story short, I got distracted for 20 seconds while these 2 guys nicked my bike, literally, right from under my nose, in front of the pub, all those people and surveillance cameras. The pub manager won't give me the recordings because of "legal issues", even though he knows it was all on tape. Guess the cops will sort it out smh.
Anyways, when I started 2024 I was drinking socially but regularly, but in September '24 I totally stopped until the new year 2025 . . . which was three days ago. Had one night out, one and then life takes a crap on me. I even stopped taking orals just to give my liver a rest.
So yeah, besides being totally pissed off at myself, I'm just wondering if taking oral during those 3-4 weeks would've made my liver super weak and sped up the "drunk-ness"? I don't know man I'm new to this enhanced life. I don't eat bad, sleep bad or act bad, but I like to sometimes have a couple with friends yet after that I dunno . . .
Don't wanna drink anymore. So do you guys drink? Are there "different rules" for alcohol consumption?

I was leaving the bar in 2021 headed a couple blocks to my house in downtown Denver. Guy put a gun in my face as I was using my key fob to get in the building. Told him to eat a dick. Hit me with the pistol, gun went off, round hit my ear. He ran off and I said, where the fuck you goin bitch? Don't you wanna see my AR? I get in the elevator and see blood dripping down on the floor. Touch my ear and my entire hand was dark red with blood. Needless to say I went upstairs, checked the damage, then called an ambulance to have a look. They said I needed surgery now, so I went to the hospital. 25 stiches and 4 staples.
They did a good job, no more hole in my ear from the bullet. barely a scar too. Ear was ripped all the way down to the canal.
Glad you are ok - that's crazy you were read to throw down after such an injury.

from 2000 but oh my gosh
trash300In 2022 they tried to steal my daughters car in front of the club, I saw its hers cause the license plate and I was there cause the Pub where I meet my guys is only one street ahead. I knocked them to hell, 4 months prison but for my kids I'd do all - no tolerance!
So my burning question is no one here drinks unless on super special occasions and even that, only in moderation? Seems like yes
'Legal issues' the fucking manager is in on it
When I drink it kills my appetite the next day which in turn kills my gains I could be making. If your on a cycle I would not recommend drinking. Not only are you missing out on gains but your also putting your health more at risk.
I will heed your advice , thanks
I found taking orals during New Year revelries was much less problematic than giving orals... heard from a friend
"pint" "pub", so by football do you mean soccer? Or american football?
If i drink on cycle, im not eating much or taking in healthy food that night. Next morning im dehydrated and look like a skeleton in the mirror. Im hungover and feel sick all day so im not taking in any calories for another 12hrs. For another 24hrs im weak and skip working out. Therefore i dont drink on cycle. And nothing good happens after 10pm. I go to bed while all my friends are catching cases and getting in fights and getting robbed.
Don't drink when on cycle bud - just don't do it. If you are still wanting to socialise and drink then leave the Steroids until you are 100% ready to commit to them. Oral Steroids are an entirely different animal in themselves to a few drinks. As @BFG pointed out a few years back to a member, A drink passes through the Liver and is processed and done with fairly rapidly. An Oral steroid on the other hand is 'Active' in your bloodstream for at least 8 to 16 hours and then depending on half life takes further time to be totally broken down by the Liver and Kidneys. The Strain they put on the liver is much heavier over a prolonged period, so chances are your liver enzymes were fairly high already. Mix Steroids & Orals together and its a disaster waiting to happen, once a drink is thrown in there you are much more likely to do something you will regret if it boils down to violence.
I have had some crazy dark thoughts about what I would do if I see those two guys, press1, like never in my life before.
Great advice, thank you so much press1
If you had stopped drinking in sept. 2024 then your tolerance would have dropped significantly. I spent years on years drinking 9+ tall cans everyday. Bc of this my tolerance was very high. Eventually I worked myself to 1 a week then to once a month. I went about 6months with out drinking and 2 tall cans hit hard. It felt like I was 6 tall cans deep.
If I were you I’d just stop drinking. Of course every once in a blue moon won’t kill you but if you’re going to drink it should be for very specially occasions. And you should really limit yourself. When I say special occasions I mean 2-3 times a year while cruising. No not every birthday party or get together is a special occasion.
Drinking dehydrates you, fucks up recovery and adds stress to your liver. If I do want a drink it’s a glass of beer and that’s it! Why go down this journey and do shit that’s going to slow progress and add stress to the body.
well said thank you
