To Hell with Hangovers: A Social Experiment

Many of us LOCers can comfortably say that we no longer get hangovers. Especially after Mardi Gras, our bodies have learned that it is just not acceptable to be bogged down by the after affects of alcohol. It’s been a hard and long journey but our bodies have finally adapted to our surroundings and now allow us to function at peak performance after a night of drinking. This, our friends, is Darwinism at its finest.
Now we’re not saying that you’re weaker than us if you don’t wake up on a Saturday morning jonesing for a round of mimosas… we’re just saying that you’re simply not going to have as enjoyable of a Saturday morning as us. But that’s why we’re here, to make your lives better and to help you adapt to the New Orleans way of living; living like a lush large.
In the future we look forward to highlighting local eateries and bars which specialize in curing the hangover. But right now we’re still too busy focusing on those that cause them.  At some point we’ll even introduce the magical little pill we take every weekend to speed up our recovery process (yes, we’re ecstatic about it but no, it’s not ecstasy).
But for now, we bring you:

On to the social experiment:
We would love it if everyone went out this weekend, got drunk and then tried one of these remedies the next day. If it sobers you up enough to write up a recap and send it in to us, we would love to repost it on the blog. Be sure to mention just how much you drank the night before and just how much of a baby you are at dealing with hangovers. And we know we have like a million followers, but be sure to pass this challenge on to your friends and family.
Personally, we’re thinking about trying out the “Romanian” this weekend. Only because we happen to have some extra cow stomach lying around.

P.S. Anyone who tries the “Italian” remedy and thinks they’re really contributing something to the experiment will be slapped. Unless you’re like deathly allergic to coffee or something. In which case, we would love to hear your recap.
