OPEN REQUEST: HANGOVER SOLUTIONS
Okay, reader input solicited. Hangover is in FULL effect. We’re going to list our immediate hangover solutions, because we have one, and need to get over it in order to stop staring blankly at the computer screen. Our usual repertoire:
1. Coffee. Kind of like Tussin, in that we apply it to every problem we’ve ever had physically. Just rub it deep into the bone there. Get it all the way in.
2. Crying. Just heave forward, think of puppies being thrown into a wood chipper or something, and cry. It helps, even if it reduces your dignity hit points to zero on the day. Considering that your brain is literally dehydrated from consuming a poisonous substance, they’re pretty low to begin with, no?
3. A beer. Just one, or maybe in extreme circumstances. This is for the most dire, world-destroying of hangovers only.
4. Running until vomiting. Since we’re a bit pukey anyway, this works like a charm, but getting up the gumption to do it is the hard part. An old Army hangover trick learned from a sub five foot woman who can field-strip an M-16 can’t be wrong.
5. Chik-Fil-A. Like coffee, may be applied liberally to any serious problem or moment in your life.
Please leave your own suggestions below. We’ll try anything at this point.

Saline IV. Best reason in the world to date a nurse.
Instant rehydration. Even better if you can convince her to start the drip before you go to bed.

I keep 2 liters of water by my bedside that I down overnight. If I got a headache the next morning, some aspirin helps (my boss at Taco Bell keeps a supply handy for such things). While I’m at it, eat some Taco Bell too. Preferrably a Quesadilla and a taco

Pedialyte cured the worst hangover of my life, my Morning After Bachelor Party hangover.
I had vomited 13 times that morning (all but one dry), and couldn’t keep water down. Drank a half bottle of Pedialyte and the improvement was immediate.
All I had left was a really, really, sore throat.

step 1 – masturbate
step 2 – dump out (if necessary)
step 3 – fried chicken (greasyer the better) and regular coke
repeat as necessary
btw – if its gameday, mardi gras, etc… and you need to rally fast. drink a triple vodka and redbull to ease you back into a dayfull of drinkin’ (just make sure you do that before you completely sober up)

1. Running – especially if your fat, your body is not used to it and the sweat gets you going.
2. Rub n Tug – the only jerk better than your own is the seasoned soothing hands of a professional.
3. Wendy’s or McDonalds – Double Stack or Big Mac cant go wrong.
4. Most inportant – BEER, for breakfast, lunch, snack, dinner, dessert. How every you get it down, just do it. I have found that either Funneling, Chugging or Shotgun is most effective if you can man it up.*
*If your the Wake Forest country club type then a Bloody Mary is equally effective. Then you can run and play a spot of Croquet with Muffy and solict Stock advise from her father the Colonal.
5. Tylenol/Aspirin
