If you are a beer drinker, chances are you have either been described by others or by yourself with one of the terms below. I am sure I did not get them all but I think I covered the most popular ones. When making this list the “Asshole” scene in Beerfest where Barry, Jay Chandrasekhar, comes to mind…Barry is playing the game asshole and as a result of being punished as the asshole, he gets hammered. The scene that follows is hilarious (and one you do not want to experience, especially if you know how it ends).

So here is the list of most common terms for being drunk:

Amped
Bent
Blacked-out
Blasted
Blind
Blitzed
Blotto
Bombed
Buzzed
Clobbered
Crocked
Destroyed

Pot Smoking Benefits with Binge Drinking

Hmmm….5 beers or more is binge drinking. What is binge pot smoking? Read on…

Study found those who also smoked showed less damage to brain’s white matter

– Robert Preidt

FRIDAY, Aug. 21 (HealthDay News) — Marijuana may buffer the brain against the damages of binge drinking, a new study suggests.

Researchers from the University of California, San Diego, used high-tech scans to compare microscopic changes in brain white matter in teens aged 16 to 19 who were divided into three groups: binge drinkers (boys who consume five or more drinks at one sitting, and girls who have four or more drinks); binge drinkers who also smoked marijuana; and a control group with little or no experience with either alcohol or drugs.

As expected, the binge drinkers showed signs of white matter damage in all eight brain regions examined by the researchers. But the binge drinkers/marijuana users had less damage in seven out of the eight brain regions than the binge drinkers did. And compared to the control group, the binge drinkers/marijuana users had more white matter damage in only three regions.

The researchers wrote that brain white matter tracts were “more coherent in adolescents who binge drink and use marijuana than in adolescents who report only binge drinking.” They said it’s “possible that marijuana may have some neuroprotective properties in mitigating alcohol-related oxidative stress or excitotoxic cell death.”

The study appears in the current issue of the journal Neurotoxicology and Teratology.

“This study suggests that not only is marijuana safer than alcohol, it may actually protect against some of the damage that booze causes,” Steve Fox, director of state campaigns for the Marijuana Policy Project, said in a news release from the project.

“It’s far better for teens not to drink or smoke marijuana, but our nation’s leaders send a dangerous message by defending laws that encourage the use of alcohol over marijuana,” he added.
