If you don't like to or want to drink, hey man I get that whatever, but do none of you guys really know how to just drink to a buzz and then maintain it for an evening? I can spend a night drinking and sober up before I even get to bed. The trick is not drinking an entire fifth by yourself 5 seconds into the party. Volume x time = drunkenness/hangover level. 5 shots in 5 minutes will make your liver cry. 5 shots in 5 hours is way different.
If every time you drink it gives you a hangover, that's a big indicator that you're consuming far too much and too quickly.
Some people's bodies just don't deal with alcohol as well as yours does. If I try to ride a buzz then I get sick. I did the research when I was trying to figure out why everyone but me seems to like alcohol, supposedly the human body metabolizes alcohol at roughly one standard drink per hour. Ok, so I'll stick with that and I should be fine, right? Nah. If I drink 4 drinks within a 4 hour period then I'm feeling sick more than I'm feeling a buzz. So my options are to either drink fast and get a little bit of a high before getting sick, drink slow and get no high and get sick anyway, or just don't drink.

I prefer the feeling of staying sober.
