You aren’t training hard enough. I can’t remember the last time I’ve had a hangover.

Baw, you get a hangover from a 6 pack of beer?
ETA: I’m only 37 (well in a couple weeks), and I only drink wine or whiskey, but I probably drink 2-3 on Thursday, 3-4 on Friday and Saturday. Sunday is typically no drinks or only 1-2. I don’t typically drink Monday-Wednesday.

Couple years ago I was drinking at least something most days.
Now?
I might have a few drinks a week. It's like I forget to drink. I'm not actively not trying to drink. I'm just not.

A drink or two a week.

When I was in my 40s I probably averaged 15 beers each weekend - mostly between Friday night and Saturday night. Not much on Sunday.
I’ve since cut way back. Now probably more like an average of 4. I don’t find drinking all that enjoyable anymore. Makes me feel like shite. Getting old really sucks.

I would call myself a very light drinker. I never drink at work events and when I go out I usually only have 1-3 once a week.
I hate drinking "empty calories". If i'm going social it's fine, but I often will sip on 1-2

I used to drink alot ,and now I don't which is the point I was making. Also I don't drink that pussy, piss beer some of you baws drink. I also don't drink as much scotch either. I like to have a small glass when I am reading. Going out and just getting hammered, I really don't like doing that anymore.

I normally drink only beer. Friday and saturday a 6 pack to maybe 8-10 at most.
I probably drink a Sazerac every month or two. I'd rather eat a gummy than get drunk these days.

None.
The juice isn’t worth the squeeze any longer at this age. You’ll see.

I’m about to be 38, so close enough. If I’m home, I drink a couple scotches when grilling on Friday or Saturday nights. Especially on cold nights. Rarely drink anything during the summer, Sundays, or during the week.
2-3 Old Fashioned’s when we go out to eat.
I don’t drink beer much at all anymore. Just feel bloated as shite when I do.

Monday - Thursday I will have anywhere from 0-2 glasses of wine. Usually try to go at least 2 nights with no alcohol per week and 2 very very light if at all.
Friday - Saturday I make up for lost time. Martinis, bourbon no mixer, wine with dinner, maybe an IPA or three during the day if I'm doing yard work.
Sundays usually 2-3 glasses of wine.
ETA:
Hangovers in my 40s are shite though. I have a whole routine of water, electrolytes, eating a big breakfast when I wake up, and sauna (have a home sauna). Sometimes add an ice bath to that. If I remember to have electrolyte water before bed it really helps but I often forget.

Looking back, I'm amazed at the amount of alcohol I could ingest back when I was young. I could go to a party & drink 18 beers, shots, smoke all night & still function at 3am. I was always one of the last ones to call it quits. Now in my 40's, I'm looking for the bed after 3 or 4 vodka drinks.
What is that called? Reverse tolerance?

Nothing personal, but if I had to do all that, I just wouldn’t drink.

All that?
Eat breakfast, drink water, and sit in a sauna for 15 minutes? I do this even when I'm not hungover
Ice bath too, but usually just do it once a week.
I'm just saying when I'm hungover I can't skip that normal routine.

Same, there’s a handful of days every year where I tie one on, drinking shitty beer, while hanging out with my friends, but the vast majority of the time I’d much rather have a couple pours of whiskey or glasses of wine than drink all that beer and feel bloated/miserable.
