  • casspa, on 05/09/2008, -9/+96Americans drink to have sex...I swear it improves performance, drugs just make me taste colors
    • Harrison88, on 05/09/2008, -1/+124Skittles aren't drugs
    • JustLoren, on 05/09/2008, -5/+25You enjoy whiskey dick?!
      • aliengoods, on 05/09/2008, -5/+4The only time I've had whiskey dick is when I've passed out (couple of times in college). Otherwise I don't have issues in that department, and I'm sure I'm not the only one.
        • enignock, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2That's o.k. College is when most people experiment. Besides... it's not gay past the first knuckle.
      • uptown, on 05/09/2008, -1/+13my name's not dick
      • jzuska, on 05/09/2008, -14/+3No, I can last for 3 hours. That's not whiskey dick.
        • Jektal, on 05/09/2008, -0/+7No, that's an endurance race, and not something to be aimed for often.
        • nakani, on 05/09/2008, -0/+10Aren't you supposed to call the doctor after 3 hours?
      • stellamaris, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Cause I sure don't. "Uh, this doesn't usually happen." "Whatever, get your stuff and leave, I'm going to sleep."
      • DrDragun, on 05/09/2008, -1/+81-5 beers: sexual superhero
        6-10 beers: confident but sloppy
        11-15 beers: whiskey dick
        16+ beers: whiskey waterbed
        • GMorgan, on 05/09/2008, -1/+1I've drunk 16+ beers many, many times and have yet to end up with a water bed.

          Also what sort of beers are these. Are we talking pointless 5%?
          • GMorgan, on 05/09/2008, -1/+1Diggs retarded comment system to the rescue

            That last line should read pointless less than 4% stuff or proper beer greater than 5%?
          • DrDragun, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Don't take the joke too literally man. The whole thing was just a vehicle to use the phrase "whiskey waterbed." I'm sure the threshold for it is probably higher than 16 beers too.

            When I'm trying to look the part of the successful engineer at the bar I usually rock 6-8% IPA's, though any night I've made it to a 15 count has usually been on something far cheaper and weaker.
          • pauldy, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3Does it matter, looks like it was supposed to be more of a joke about the stages of drunkenness as it relates to sexual performance. There will be natural variations in this but its comedic chuckle factor is only lost on you. FAIL.
    • thcobbs, on 05/09/2008, -1/+44You THINK it improves performance. It just makes you uncoordinated as hell.
      • itsthebrod, on 05/09/2008, -1/+21That's fine as long as both partners are ***** up.
    • blitzkriegpunk, on 05/09/2008, -2/+38The snozberries taste like snozberries... I'm freaking out, maaaaaaan.
      • swimmin00, on 05/09/2008, -0/+6Yes, you are freaking out... man...
    • spuddly, on 05/09/2008, -16/+13I would also need to drink heavily before I slept with anything that resembled your average english girl
      • BattleScars, on 05/09/2008, -12/+8STEREOTYPEZ IZ TEH FUNNYZ!!!!!111

        Seriously though, you're a douche.
        • CiXeL, on 05/09/2008, -2/+5i still think elizabeth hurley is a fraud.
          its just like shakira has lebonese parents.
          • mrsteveman1, on 05/09/2008, -4/+2lesbonese? oh LEBONESE, the country. nm
      • zhulik83, on 05/09/2008, -10/+5I would also need to drink heavily before I slept with average AMERICAN girl.
      • BabyWookie, on 05/09/2008, -0/+5The booze does dull the stink of their crooked, rotten teeth.
        • BattleScars, on 05/09/2008, -3/+1I love the old "Brits have bad teeth" gag. The irony is that Britain was actually the first western country to manufacture and use toothpaste in the early 1800s.
          • Monk22, on 05/09/2008, -0/+4apparently it makes no difference
          • Elranzer, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1This is because dentists are paid like ***** in the UK. All of the dental students move to the USA once they're eligible. This also explains the USA's massive amount of foreign dentists.
      • GMorgan, on 05/09/2008, -1/+3What experience do you have with the average British girl?

        I recognise that it's very much dependent on location, anywhere with more than 10% of the population on welfare is likely going to be flooded with chavs (of course chavs would be fashionable in America from what I've seen of your dress sense). However based on what I've seen I'd take the British girls over the American ones any day of the week. You just need to know enough kung fu/muay thai/boxing to fight off the chavs.
        • TheCasablancan, on 05/09/2008, -1/+1Es tut mir leid, homie, but I'll say this: An average girl off the street will go for a guy who is interesting. You are evidently not as interesting as the chavs. Be more interesting, and you will succeed more often than them. It isn't a difficult formula.

          Would an average british woman look any different than an american? The only british folken I know come from an indian background.
    • halobender, on 05/09/2008, -1/+20Increases desire reduces performance, no two ways about it. You just think you're doing a good job when drunk...
    • IdevInull, on 05/09/2008, -19/+12Europeans have to do this. You would have to be drunk to have sex with those hairy smelly and dirty things.
      • ajb2015, on 05/09/2008, -13/+5you prefer american plastic?
        • B1663r, on 05/09/2008, -11/+3The women you typically find in California, Georgia, and Florida are hotter than any women you find anywhere in Europe. Out side of those particular locals though, American women are no hotter than any other women in the world... Well, except for perhaps Russian Women, who are butt ugly for the most part.

          Also, American women seem to be the most promiscuous but that could be a cultural thing on my part.
        • Scynet, on 05/09/2008, -2/+13Let's just admit 99.5% of the folks here don't have any real experience of the differences between girls of U.S and Europe, we just form our opinions based on popular ideas (read: stereotypes).

          I'm willing to bet there isn't much of a difference.
          • B1663r, on 05/09/2008, -2/+1Oh please... Go grab 10 random women from California, Georgia or Florida, and stand them up next to 10 random women from Ohio, Illinois and Minnesota. *****.

            Mmmkay, now lets try that with any country in europe, except perhaps for Spain and
            Italy. Ok, now lets compare random samples from Spain and Italy to California.

            Yeah I thought so.
        • darkamster07, on 05/09/2008, -0/+5I find most "hot" girls completely unattractive, probably due to my above average internet exposure, I only like girls that look real, infact i find that the imperfections do more for me that the "hotness"
          • TheCasablancan, on 05/09/2008, -2/+1What really turns up the hotness level for me are breasts.
      • debuggercll, on 05/09/2008, -4/+5And greasy.
      • Phoetality, on 05/09/2008, -1/+11Says the americans :). Hows that obesity epidemic working out for ya?
        • SteeleJK, on 05/09/2008, -0/+4Buuuurn, nice.
        • darkamster07, on 05/09/2008, -0/+5eat less, move more

          it really dosen't get simpler than that people
    • Bradkid101, on 05/09/2008, -4/+6drugs and alcohol also make you cooler!
    • maj0rm0j0, on 05/09/2008, -6/+2Yeah but could you drink enough to have sex with this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eBGIQ7ZuuiU
    • ell0bo, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Yes, when I drink enough to make her good looking, I do feel as though my sex life is better. That's how i explain my last relationship my senior year of college at least.
    • BaronVonZ, on 05/09/2008, -1/+1Coloreds is not a politically correct term for blacks, and I'm offended that you have to be drugged to give one oral.
    • passedoutghost, on 05/10/2008, -0/+1For some reason I always come down with a case of liqour dick once I start drinking.
  • geekchic, on 05/09/2008, -5/+416In related news - researchers announce that the sky is blue and water is wet.
    • JustLoren, on 05/09/2008, -2/+25Film at 11.
      • longbow486, on 05/09/2008, -1/+3damnit i missed it, i knew that short term.. HEY look a griffen
      • rentmitchum, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1What was the source of the quoted "Film at 11"..? Not being a dicksauce, I really would like to know.
    • reisrocks, on 05/09/2008, -3/+13Ditto. "Researchers", who are most usually professors in universities, #have# to publish X amount of articles in papers each year. It is part of their contracts with Universities. Just in case you were wondering why there are so many articles these days with "research" that could basically be carried out by any moron standing in a pub.
    • unorginalityftw, on 05/09/2008, -1/+7Water is wet!? =O
      • CiXeL, on 05/09/2008, -1/+2there are alot of socially inept scientists still learning about this thing called 'sex'
      • FluffyWolf, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2No not usually, water is only wet in a small range of temperature/pressure combinations. For example at 1 atm pressure water turns dry if you heat it up above 373 degrees Kelvin or if it is bellow 273 degrees. In a similar way the sky is not always blue, but varies with altitude and the attitude of the sun.







        (...no, you are completely right, I don't get laid even when I'm drunk, thanks for asking.)
    • psg188, on 05/09/2008, -1/+9A blue sky is just a theory, and the Islamic community is banning your news channel from our nation of Saudi Arabia in order to prevent your blasphemy from ruining the minds of our children.
    • IglooBurner, on 05/09/2008, -3/+0http://www.o--rly.com/owl_orly.png
    • jabberwolf, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Is this were research money goes to? Dam anything to keep getting grants and keep their jobs.
    • passedoutghost, on 05/10/2008, -0/+0The sky isn't always blue. Researchers need more funding to continue investigation.
  • v666, on 05/09/2008, -7/+43here is a digg from europe
  • ltomson, on 05/09/2008, -4/+24This is not like going to college or anything!
  • AlwaysAwake, on 05/09/2008, -24/+39With 36 years of sex without Alcohol, versus 32 with Alcohol, sex is much better without alcohol (or drugs), speaking only from personal experience, of course. Admittedly it took some getting used to first, a kind of adjustment period, but then, as the fog lifted, sex became something really creative and fun, as well as enormously satisfying.
    • jvangurp, on 05/09/2008, -3/+56You're 82?
      • blackbeardtron, on 05/09/2008, -1/+81His profile says he's 67. So he started having sex under the influence of alcohol when he was -1 years old.
        My hero.
        • raid517, on 05/09/2008, -0/+35Now that's rock and roll....!
        • weizilla, on 05/09/2008, -1/+24drinking in the womb is the way to go these days. you gotta build up your tolerance young!
          although I guess if he was -1, he would of been drinking before conception....???
          • aliengoods, on 05/09/2008, -0/+21I'm assuming that's how he was conceived. One lucky sperm that kept bumping into walls in a drunken stooper until it hit an egg.
          • novenator, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1drunk driving in the micromachine
      • Cytranic, on 05/09/2008, -0/+5Am I the only one noticing thats everyones math is out in left field? Dude 36+32=68

        Wow.
        • tonyr1988, on 05/09/2008, -0/+4Unless he started having sex under the influence of alcohol as a newborn, you need to add a little constant in there....
          36 (sex w/o alcohol) + 32 (sex w/ alcohol) + 14 (no sex) = 82
    • 10001110101, on 05/09/2008, -1/+11Umm.. Your profile says you're only 67.
      Not disagreeing with you.. Just sayin'..
      (And, I really hope that the 36 years came first)
      • hardwickj, on 05/09/2008, -0/+11Your forgetting....his parents wouldn't let him drink when he was only 1.

        Man, once he hit 2 though....he broke out all the stops...
      • powatom, on 05/09/2008, -1/+15I hope someone says I'M 'only' 67 one day :')
    • blah247, on 05/09/2008, -3/+9You should try it with someone else now... it gets better!
    • Myztry, on 05/09/2008, -6/+13I'm just trying to figure out age here. It can't be 36+32+viginity because that'd be over 80 years of age.
      So it must be 36+viriginity+drunk years. Which still places one over fifty... Yet I see no mention of Viagra.
      I'm over 36, yet I can't drink like I used too and expect much from sex afterwards.
      But then I used to be able to bend a steel bar over my penis, before my wrists failed on me...
      • rhartman, on 05/09/2008, -2/+6Dugg for this:
        "But then I used to be able to bend a steel bar over my penis, before my wrists failed on me..."
    • Chazx, on 05/09/2008, -10/+21I don't want to know about your sex life old man.
    • Pulch, on 05/09/2008, -2/+14You're just not using the right drugs. Sex on pot or X > regular sex.
      • NotedFuturist, on 05/10/2008, -0/+1Until the chick's head turns into a demon and her body a winged serpent and you have to surrender your soul to the beast inside her. Other than that, the drug sex is whack.
        • Magnus150, on 05/10/2008, -0/+1Wrong drug buddy. Thats shrooms and that would have to be a pretty bad trip.
    • yojiffyskippy, on 05/09/2008, -6/+3That would make you about 78-98 years old depending on when you started having sex so please don't share any details.
    • cmuwriter, on 05/09/2008, -11/+31I agree, blowing my load into a woman's asshole is much more satisfying if I remember it the next morning while we're cuddling.
      • Myztry, on 05/09/2008, -12/+5If you're that found of blowing into an asshole, you might as well bat for the other team. The orifice is identical on both genders. If the Tuna Pie is that bad, you're bringing in a catch that ain't worth catching...
        • blah247, on 05/09/2008, -5/+6If you think that you are ***** some hairy assed women!
        • Pulch, on 05/09/2008, -2/+9Just because he likes to stick it in the pooper, doesn't mean he's gay. He's attracted to women. Hell, he could like things put up his hershey highway and still not be gay. Stop being so close minded. Just because he's a fan of the chocolate factory, doesn't make him homosexual.
          • Myztry, on 05/09/2008, -5/+3You know you've got a bad one when you go 'round the world' and it tastes better :)
            Anyway, I've done threesomes, foursomes, and a hole lot of ***** that'd drop most people jaws. But having gone anal enough to well and truly wear of the novelty, I can only conclude that some people live in a closet.
            It's really nothing to get excited about. Yup, done that. Next...
          • nakani, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3@Myztry "Next..."
            Ear sex?
          • Myztry, on 05/10/2008, -0/+1@Nakani. Bondage, roleplay, food sex, public sex, group sex, tease sex, blindfold sex, spa sex, mutual masturbation, etc, etc.
            Is the lure of the feces that strong, that you can think of nothing else... There's a whole lot to be done besides *YAWN* anal...
        • darkamster07, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2welcome to the internet, you'll turn that attitude around eventualy
      • aliengoods, on 05/09/2008, -8/+2Two in the pink, one in the stink. That's the way to go!
        • KMartSheriff, on 05/09/2008, -1/+3ALL 5 IN THE PINK!
        • Magnus150, on 05/10/2008, -0/+1Well hell, while we're at it, lets just make it ten.
      • BabyWookie, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Neither is peeing in her butthole.
      • zarvensha, on 05/09/2008, -1/+1Okay, best comment for the week award to you sir!
    • sonnybobiche, on 05/09/2008, -1/+16And I don't know about you guys, but my junk doesn't work after I get wasted. I believe they call it "whisky dick."
      • shortyjacobs, on 05/09/2008, -4/+2Dugg for the correct spelling of "Whisky"
        • sonnybobiche, on 05/09/2008, -0/+6Actually, Irish and American stuff (Bourbon) is spelled Whiskey. But since I'm not from tennessee and I hate the color green, I drink scotch, which is spellled without the 'e'.
      • thedogfatherx, on 05/09/2008, -2/+6Yes I have fallen to the "Whiskey Dick" plenty of times. It would always happen on one night stands to. It sucks.
    • cyberleader, on 05/09/2008, -0/+8Like anyone over 60 is on the Internet.
    • stonedthot, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Dude variety is the spice of life. Yeah sobre sex is fun, so is drunk sex, stoned sex, x sex, coke sex... its all good. Mushies sex... not so much, ***** freaked me out
  • DerangedPenguin, on 05/09/2008, -5/+47In "The States" they drink to forget they had sex with him/her/or whatever. Us Penguins drink before sex because it so freaking cold down here... Remember son, if it is erect for more than 30 seconds it will freeze solid and shatter.
    • shortyjacobs, on 05/09/2008, -0/+13Forgive my ignorance......what country do "Penguins" live in?
      • karolisonline, on 05/09/2008, -1/+10Canada
        • shortyjacobs, on 05/09/2008, -0/+14So Canada is "down" from the states?

          I only ask because I, too, am Canadian.....and generally consider myself "up" from the States.
          • HonoredMule, on 05/09/2008, -1/+2While it's a bit of a misnomer, seeing as we have none here, the label of "penguins" is something our myopic US friends can grasp. Plus, feeding on such ignorance makes for some awesome episodes of "This Hour has 22 Minutes."
          • kokoshka, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3Pittsburgh has Penguins.
      • init100, on 05/09/2008, -3/+6Penguins live in Antarctica, although it isn't a country.
        • BedPost, on 05/09/2008, -2/+2woosh
        • Jaymo89, on 05/11/2008, -0/+1Penguins are native to the southern hemisphere, so Australia, New Zealand and some south american countries have them.
  • TheMinimalist, on 05/09/2008, -4/+105What an amazing study! None of us have ever done anything like that! Those wacky Europeans!
  • airj1012, on 05/09/2008, -6/+36Is this really a surprise? Buried because the articles don't mention "Apple" or "Technology" any where in them. Post in the correct section. How did this even make the front page?
    • wicketr, on 05/09/2008, -2/+7Agreed. The original poster is a moron for posting this under Technology. He just did that so that it would stand out with the word "Sex" in the title so people would be attracted to looking at it.
      • warrior007, on 05/09/2008, -2/+0No Dude , just i forgot to change the topic when i am submitting . and i will not agree with u . i think if i submit in health then there will be more chances to attract more people . any how even though i forgot to submit in health it had got in to front page . it shows SEX is universal
    • airj1012, on 05/09/2008, -3/+5This is why I consider that "the community" is going downhill. Compared to when Digg was new.
    • warrior007, on 05/09/2008, -2/+1oops by default it had taken to apple , i forgot to change the topic when i am submitting .
      sorry for that . have a nice day
  • osuchasenuts, on 05/09/2008, -3/+14I love when scientists figure out things. Next year they might even figure out that college students only drink light beer because its easier to binge drink!!
    • dlllb, on 05/09/2008, -2/+4Pussies, we Europeans are hardcore with our binging.
      • CiXeL, on 05/09/2008, -0/+6waste of money. its better to be a cheap drunk.
      • FortyCaliber, on 05/09/2008, -1/+5I don't remeber any european beers with "blue ribbon" in their name...
        Must mean they suck...
    • widgetmaker, on 05/09/2008, -0/+5Light beer, er it would be hard to find that here (UK)
      Ales and European beer ftw
    • stellamaris, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2I think we drink light beer because it's cheaper. $10 for a 30 pack of Natty Light, yessiree. Tastes like water but is an exercise in persistence.
  • BattleScars, on 05/09/2008, -6/+10No *****
  • remakeru, on 05/09/2008, -6/+2really?
  • Stavrosian, on 05/09/2008, -2/+75I'm crap in the sack unless I'm drunk. Of course, I'm still crap when drunk, but I can't remember it, so it doesn't matter.
  • 000dom000, on 05/09/2008, -2/+81Wait a minute... anyone notice this is in Technology --> Apple?
    • yojiffyskippy, on 05/09/2008, -2/+7This is the Apple Schnapps section right? No?!?! My bad.
    • scamper22, on 05/09/2008, -6/+17precisely the people who need help improving their sex lives
      • KMartSheriff, on 05/09/2008, -5/+3Right, because all gamers are good at it.
        • Planets, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1He said Apple.

          Where'd you get "gamers" from?
        • Vinvin, on 05/10/2008, -0/+1Gamers don't use Macs (don't blame the messenger!). KMartSheriff used sarcasm to imply that Windows users ("gamers") need help improving their sex lives far more than Apple users. Right...
      • migitalwarfare, on 05/09/2008, -3/+3you're right, because everyone knows the key to getting a girl in bed is owning a computer running windows. i'm honestly surprised that our species survived at all before microsoft and apple were around

  • s1nister, on 05/09/2008, -5/+2It's not a function of quality but rather of throughput, which increases linearly with the amount of alcohol and drugs at a party.
  • bloominoctober, on 05/09/2008, -3/+20Umm .... Does this really belong in the "Apple" category??

  • diggbk, on 05/09/2008, -5/+44My wife resembles Carmen Electra after a few drinks. That is why I drink.
    • wytedevl, on 05/09/2008, -1/+13lucky man... the best my wife gets after a few drinks is Rosie Odonell. Thats why I drink A Lot!
      • punx, on 05/09/2008, -1/+5Oh crap, you are going to be in so much trouble if she reads that. You won't be getting any for years. Dugg you up anyway, because it was kind of funny.
        • nbcaffeine, on 05/09/2008, -0/+7If he doesn't get any for years, I don't think he's missing out.
        • darkamster07, on 05/09/2008, -1/+2it's ok because as we all know there are no women on the internets; rosie o'donells though...
      • BabyWookie, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3My wife starts resembling a woman after a few drinks.
    • endorphin, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2LOL
    • Stavrosian, on 05/10/2008, -0/+2Best not to ask why she drinks, right?
  • Anteros, on 05/09/2008, -3/+2incredible
  • RobotLeAwesome, on 05/09/2008, -4/+11Hold on, I can use alcohol in sexual situations for my benefit?!
  • hanskainz, on 05/09/2008, -4/+3Better to get drunk to have sex, than to have sex to get drunk???
    • Ecl1pse, on 05/09/2008, -1/+0That doesn't even make sense!
    • shortyjacobs, on 05/09/2008, -1/+4I told you kid, stop ***** vodka bottles!
      • widgetmaker, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Nah whisky ones are much better.

  • Pottypotsworth, on 05/09/2008, -4/+4Yeah it all good drinking to have sex (makes u last a little longer too), but then after waking up with some fugly bird you have to get drunk all over again to forget... then the cycle continues
  • BearFace, on 05/09/2008, -5/+21Improve sex life? When I have binged I can never keep it up :(

    ..it's like forcing a tissue into a keyhole ...
  • chapwag1001, on 05/09/2008, -5/+9Technology-->Apple? Somebody seems confused =]
    • warrior007, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2oops forgot to change the topic when i am submitting
  • iloveazngurlzs, on 05/09/2008, -7/+7omg, Euro's, follow in our example. You don't see us "silly" americans doing such crazy things.

    /sarcasm

    Who the hell funds these studies?
    • yojiffyskippy, on 05/09/2008, -0/+7Those Europeans put the fun in "FUNding Studies". /*hangs head in shame anticipating brutal digg down*/
    • willdiggforfood, on 05/09/2008, -5/+2Some old, crazy, liberal pedophiles and some sexually deprived, old creepy women, all of them with money. Reading the results of this research (which talks about real people having sex) turns them on, so they can indulge in masturbation until they melt their skin off.

      Yup, that's the state of some members of academia.
    • widgetmaker, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Sorry other way round, we start binge drinking at 18, you have to wait till 21. (yes you can drink under age but it isn't as easy/convenient.
    • init100, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Americans don't drink, they smoke marijuana instead. :)
      • mrigns, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1never heard of the netherlands, do you?
  • ronaldst, on 05/09/2008, -3/+1I'd love to be eligible to do studies/researchs. I would just have to find everyday common knowledge and magically turn it into a "study." Then collect hard cash.
  • DreKor, on 05/09/2008, -2/+11A similar study, conducted by the same scientists, concluded that people tend to eat because they are hungry. This does not mean that people only eat when they are hungry, but it does suggest a strong correlation between the two.
  • RudeTurnip, on 05/09/2008, -5/+9Doesn't alcohol typically numb things down there?
  • m4lomb, on 05/09/2008, -3/+8Everyone looks sexier after a few beers!
    • CoochieMonster, on 05/09/2008, -1/+0I completely disagree. Alcohol just makes you less judgemental.
      A lemon's a lemon. call it what it is. It will never be an orange.
  • 1Cycopath, on 05/09/2008, -22/+4If European women weren't so freakin ugly the guys wouldn't have to drink so much.
    • amnezia22, on 05/09/2008, -1/+13you haven't been to europe have you..
    • kylejn, on 05/09/2008, -2/+9European women? Ugly? What the hell are you talking about? Is it just coincidence that the hottest models in the world come from Europe?
      • darkamster07, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1models=ugly. but i do see your point, I think it would be about the same
    • ronar, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3Well, here in Europe people don't think that big is beautiful.
    • endorphin, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1Two thumbs up for ronar's comment. That's exactly who 1Cycopath is.
  • fuhcough, on 05/09/2008, -4/+37not to mention your girl will be down with much freakier sh*t if she's hammered. :)
    • chuckDontSurf, on 05/09/2008, -1/+35Yeah, like vomiting on your junk.
      • ngmcs8203, on 05/09/2008, -0/+11Wow, and here I thought I was the only one that it's happened to. That is one night my buddies never let me live down. :c/
      • FortyCaliber, on 05/09/2008, -2/+3Chuck is sorry about vomiting on your junk.
      • fuhcough, on 05/09/2008, -1/+2hey whatever gets you off I guess... oh wait, you meant it was accidental?:)

  • Quick2822, on 05/09/2008, -4/+17They mention cannabis? Give me a break. No one smokes weed, then has sex, and regrets it.
    • rnichilo, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2pot saix ftw.
    • dmark77, on 05/09/2008, -0/+6This also applies to food, boring movies, and unwanted outings :)
  • animazing, on 05/09/2008, -3/+2Guilty
  • amoro99, on 05/09/2008, -2/+14Why is 'to have sex' in quotes? Do they do it differently over there?
    • powatom, on 05/09/2008, -0/+7We do it in YOUR imagination. That's how good we are.
    • ngmcs8203, on 05/09/2008, -1/+2My original thought that "to have sex" was innuendo for playing with your girlfriend's little "kitty".
    • notwizt, on 05/10/2008, -0/+0Because they are quoting somebody, in this case the people in the study.
  • DomZy, on 05/09/2008, -3/+4*****! They're onto me!
  • Tinendo, on 05/09/2008, -3/+9Yeah! It is the extreme freakin Alcohol-, Drug-, Sex-Life here in Europe. Total Chaos everywhere. Believe me.
    • CoochieMonster, on 05/09/2008, -0/+0Yeah you only have to walk through London on a Friday night to see it. Or any other city for that matter.
    • thorstrongstone, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2Cats an dogs, living together....
  • CrazyDEX, on 05/09/2008, -3/+3From the pages of the medical journal "DUH!"
  • jd72277, on 05/09/2008, -3/+2so like us...
  • JustinNoland, on 05/09/2008, -4/+3Meh, I much prefer waking up in the morning knowing where I am and who I slept with. Rather than, you know, waking up totally hung over next to some fat chick who was wayyyyy skinnier and prettier when I was trashed.
    • dlllb, on 05/09/2008, -1/+3I'm gonna say something here... As devastating as that is (if you let it be) it makes for a funny ***** story in the bar a few days/weeks/months later.
    • FortyCaliber, on 05/09/2008, -1/+2That's why you go to her place and leave when you're done when you are drunk.
    • Jektal, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1It's a value call. Is something better than nothing? Would you have chosen nothing over something had you been sober?
  • Myztry, on 05/09/2008, -1/+6As do younger Australian. We can drink legally at 18 (same age we can get a car license), and there is a definite alcohol/sex culture specially around night clubs.
    It will be interest to see how the pre-mix alcohol tax/duty effects things. From about a week ago the price of pre-mix alcohol jumped significantly. Woodstock 6 packs (as an example) went from about AU$15 to AU$21. Nightclubs only sell pre-mix (except shots) and they are the predominate youth market...
    Bottles are more cost effective. But you sure get ***** quicker mixing your own, and it throws the mandatory "stand-drink" rating out the window...
    • Myztry, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3Woops. "standard drink" - About 1.4 per 375ml can... I'd look it up, but I have no cans, just a near empty bottle ;(
    • LeRenard, on 05/09/2008, -0/+3Having never been to Australia, can you explain what a pre-mix drink is? Does that mean you cant just ask the bartender for a gin and tonic or whiskey and coke without an extra tax? You are expected to buy a bottle of coke and a bottle of whiskey at a club? Well that makes lots of sense..
      • CiXeL, on 05/09/2008, -3/+2is it true australian women dig an american accent?

        oh and are they all lesbians like on abby winters? HOT
      • Myztry, on 05/09/2008, -0/+4Pre-mix at retail is brought in licensed stores (bottle shops, etc) in can's identical to soft-drink (or Soda as American's call CARBONATED drinks). They are simply a pre-mixed 'hard' liquor like bourbon (Jim Bean, etc) mixed with cola (generic). They are usually sold in 6 packs, or slabs (4x6=24), or blocks (30 loose-bound).
        In Night Clubs, drinks are premixed from spirit bottles (700ml or larger commercial bottles) in 30ml single serves in (plastic) cups by the bartender, at a fixed price (generally regardless of spirit). They can also be brought pre-mixed in cans or bottles. Wine and beer are also available decantered in glasses, but I don't think they are classed as pre-mix. The law in new. I haven't experienced it yet.
    • son1k, on 05/09/2008, -0/+0I was furious when I heard about this, since i drink bourben+coke or smirnoff double blacks. Still though, it's just the idea that people actually think this tax will help our binging culture. It's stupid, now they're just going to mix it themselves and have 3x stronger drinks (I know I am), not to mention that our drinks were already more expensive than other countries. I'm currently in Seoul, and I'm not looking forward to coming back in a few months and facing these taxes. I heard they increased the tax on beer also?
    • passedoutghost, on 05/10/2008, -0/+0Yeah, I'm not too bothered with that. Usually me and my friend would split the cost of a bottle of vodka, have half of the bottle each in an hour, stumble to the train station, and go clubbing. The system works for us.
  • borichka, on 05/09/2008, -3/+0This is news now?
  • lafindumonde, on 05/09/2008, -3/+3This is news? Who here is familiar those relatively unknown places called "bars" or "clubs"?
  • cdigioia, on 05/09/2008, -1/+9Sex is better without alcohol.
    You're more like to get to sex, with alcohol.
    It's a conundrum.
    • ifruit, on 05/09/2008, -2/+3Everything is better with alcohol, I don't know what your talking about.
    • Magnus150, on 05/10/2008, -0/+1Simple, just get the ladies to drink.

    I drink to forget i didn't have sex sober.

    • novenator, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1LOL, well said. much better than those 'helping ugly people have sex since 1847' posters
  • mandarinmarie, on 05/09/2008, -9/+14Drunk sex is terrible, but the only reason I still smoke pot as a grown married woman with a full-time job is because it makes the sex so great.
    • Burrito, on 05/09/2008, -4/+3Digging you down is a crime against humanity.
    • kokoshka, on 05/09/2008, -4/+2Marijuana - It makes everything better.
    • atdakore, on 05/09/2008, -2/+2the only reason ahahahahha hilarious
    • darkamster07, on 05/09/2008, -2/+3I actually find myself not sexual most of the time when on weed, I open my pr0n folder and just start laughing...
      • mandarinmarie, on 05/11/2008, -0/+0Wait 30 minutes and try again!
  • the0ther, on 05/09/2008, -10/+2please please push the button and nuke us all. if we can't even do what comes natural without some booze to break down the barriers, we are ***** *****. let's just have a do-over.
    • subliminalurge, on 05/09/2008, -0/+2But I thought the whole point of the exercise was to get ***** *****?
    • The_Dude, on 05/09/2008, -0/+1It's because of Christian morality. In pagan times they were all running around nude, having completely guilt-free random, anonymous sex with many casual partners, and loving it!
    • dkrich, on 05/09/2008, -0/+0I sense some frustration?
    • oldhick, on 05/09/2008, -1/+1You have to be having some sex before you can complain about how others do it.
