Snidey ‘hangover cures’

[DrierThanANunsNasty]

I know MN is funny about drinking so expecting a flaming for this one but whatever.
Saw a post in a group I’m in on Facebook wishing everyone a happy new year and asking for hangover cures for all those who were feeling a bit fragile. Over 3/4 of the replies were people saying “don’t drink” and saying how they haven’t drunk in however long.
AIBU to think this isn’t what the post was asking and actually it’s just a bit snidey? Like I don’t care if you haven’t drunk in 22 years Janet, I feel like my whole world is gonna fall out my bum because I celebrated New Years with a bottle (or two) of wine and that’s what I wanted to do.

😂😂 I feel like the whole world is going to fall out my bum!

I am pinching that line for 2020! On another note, yanbu.

Arf.

😂 YANBU. I bet most of the people who posted the snide comments are on Mumsnet, the place where people act like anyone who has more that one glass of wine in their lifetime is a literal alcoholic 🙄

Mcdonalds or eggs with banana milk shake.

Fried egg, bacon sarnie (if you’re not veggie) full fat coke and chocolate.

Bacon sandwich and orange juice.

A friend told me because obviously I've never ever been drunk in my life.

Take it from an actual alkie (in recovery!): those rehydration powders for diarrhoea. Lucozade if you can stomach it.

Marmite

A box of dry Fruit and Nut Bran Flakes and cold fresh orange juice

Three gallons of tea, a Dioralyte and a full English. Then later a massive curry.
I can say this as I was a professional drinker (retired).

Rehydration sachets are incredible
As is full fat coke
And sushi
And paracetamol

I've tried taramasalata, but I'm not convinced yet.

Jeremy Vine did a very helpful section about this the other day 😂

YANBU. I find for people who don’t drink, it’s their favourite thing about themselves. They just have to let you know, like people who never watch tv 🙄

It's like when you complain about a shop or something and some twat replies "don't go there then"

You just sound like a total cretin if you contribute that sort of thing instead of just piping down

Mine is....full fat lemonade all day/ big toms spicy tomato juice/ Ibuprofen or alchaseltzer / Barrocca / rennies / Coffee / Home made soup / orgasm / take away later in the evening Chinese or curry :D also naps if I can and a lie in if I'm lucky and then some fresh air later / nature documentary or a good film when eating takeaway - Sorted :)

Reminds me of looking for advice to get my baby to sleep and reading: just lay it down when it's close to sleep

Berocca & Pot Noodle works everytime.

A fish finger and potato waffle sandwich is the best hangover cure ever. Fact.

Full sugar Coke and a bag of Quavers

Berocca & Pot Noodle works everytime - what the berrocca in with the pot noodle?
I was given lucozade at hospital when I was having problems coming round from gen anaesthetic - vile stuff!
Couple of litres of diet coke works for me.

@MinisterforCheekyFuckery is that fishfingers inside two potato waffles? Or are you saying fishfingers and a potato waffle inside bread?

I don't drink but still, YANBU. No need for smugness. Full fat Coke used to do the trick for me. Happy new year. Hope you feel better soon.

Fried egg sandwich with brown sauce, Ribena or gallons of orange juice. And sleep if you can. Happy New year!!

I haven't been hungover for years but wouldn't dream of making a smug remark to someone looking for hangover cures. I still love all my old hangovers cures even if I'm just tired not hungover. I'm about to eat left over curry and a bottle of lemonade. Yum!
