Methanol can kill you, yes.

Isopropanol is also toxic. I generally use it in wipes to clean heatsink compound off components and just inhaling some of it during this process will make my head spin.

I have met plenty of people over the years who react the same way to Bundy.....

I have heard that about Bundy too, it must have that reputation for a reason. I rarely drink but when I do I normally stick to clear spirits like gin or vodka. I do like to have a nice scotch with me when I'm watching Mad Men though

Looks like I'm not the only one and I'm sure if I smoked it would make me want to grab some Lucky Strike's

Interesting topic.

Whiskey or Rum type spirits provide the same effect. Only the rate of consumption alters the end effects.

Wine or any Fortifieds I wouldnt know because one drink was enough to turn me off it forever.

Beer bloats the hell out of me, so I generally only knock back one or two on a hot arvo or after a nice meal.

I dont drink vodka anymore due to undesirable (but non-violent) side effects.

I've got a mate who thinks his a pirate when he drinks Bundy, sounds funny but its very annoying!

Alchohol effects everyone differently, drink enough of it & it changes you.

I don't drink anymore but I could drink Bundy like water, didn't get me drunk. OP is a different story!

years ago a friend could drink virtually whatever she wanted - give her tequila though and she would become a depressed maniac

as others seem to have suggested, it was probably the reaction between her and the other ingredients in tequila. either way, different alcoholic drinks seem to affect people differently - it doesn't matter whether it is the alcohol or not . . . . it just seems to happen

I drink Beer, Vodka or Whiskey.
They all make me feel relaxed and happy.

If someone ****** me off while I am drinking, I am more calm then if I was sober.

I think it's the person drinking and not necessarily the drink.


I have never had bundy rum and never heard that it makes people aggressive. So not to sure about that one.

Tell you what, I've got my birthday coming up at the start of July, how about everyone come along and buy me a drink (each person buys me a totally different one) and at the end of the night I'll tell you what effect they've collectively had :P :P :P
