I'm in my mid 20's, and still haven't drank yet (just never was really into it), but I'm going over a buddies and I just feel like getting drunk. You could say I'm a huge guy, 290LBs. Just wondering how many beers (12oz cans) it would take to get drunk in the span of 1-3 hours or whatever. Anyone?

How long do the effects usually last?

I also plan on staying at my friends for 5+ hours, and getting a ride home from a desig driver there.

There's a good chance you'll make a complete fool of yourself the first time you're drunk. Most people do. Make sure only really good buddies are involved, or you'll be doing damage control the next day.

With being 290, to really feel the effect, would be around a six pack, but that is not the same as being legally drunk, which varies from state to state, country to country, and the amount you would need to drink to be legally intoxicated is much lower. Best advice...if you have never drank and you are going over to your buddies house...STAY THERE! Your buddies also need to be aware that you have never drank anything before and be prepared to deal with that and be there for you...no matter what.

My ex-financee got a 17 year old kid drunk when the 17 year old was checking out the college and fraternity and the kid had never drank before and it was disastrous. The kid not only hurled and peed his pants, was calling for his Mommy when he did go to the bathroom and the SOBs ignorant asswipes,except my ex, made fun of him. All the other frat boys got expelled except my ex, only because he was empathic to the boy.

In my younger days as a party gal, I would get drunk and be mean to my friends that tried to help me...the worst part is you are out of control, don't know it, and won't know about it unless you have a very good, honest friend to tell you.

Know it is a sort or "right of passage" into adult hood, but just somethings to think about before you do it!

i hope your not planning on leaving if you do, or have a driver or something, i dont think i would go out of my way to get "drunk" the first time, considering you do not know your limitations... test the waters, have a few, see how you feel, you will be better prepared for a second time if it happens, ater a few outings, you will start to get a sense of what you can handle. nobody should get sloppy drunk unless you plan on staying home. your a big guy, i would hate to think what your buddies would do to you if you went over the edge..hope they dont have that type sense of humor! just use your common sense. when you start getting buzzed, slow down or stop! if you end the night puking...and or getting messed with, it wont be fun in the end

If you never drank you are probably going to notice after 2 -3 beers. You may not be 'legally drunk' but it will sure feel that way. By the 6th you will not be able to even stand straight.

if you dont eat before.. you will get drunk quicker. From experience bigger guys tend to det drunk easier if its your first time.. you wll hve a rather low tollerance.. The faster you drink them.. the easiier youll get drunk. If you want to get **** faced easy.. drink 3 or so cult 45's other wise.. i would say between 2 and 6 beers. giving its your first time.. If you have eaten.. it could take a little more.. espcially if you just ate bread...

Ethanol acts as a central nervous system depressant. In small amounts, ethanol causes a mild euphoria and removes inhibitions, and in large doses it causes drunkenness, generally at a blood ethanol content of about 0.1%. At higher concentrations, alcohol causes intoxication, coma and death. A blood ethanol content above 0.4% can be fatal, although regular heavy drinkers can tolerate somewhat higher levels than non-drinkers. Eight to ten drinks per hour is considered a fatal dosage for the average 54 kg (119 lb.) person. One drink is equivalent to one shot of 40% abv (80 proof) liquor, one 12 US fl oz (355 ml) beer, or one 4–5 US fl oz (120–150 ml) glass of wine.

In the UK, a "unit" of alcohol is 10 ml pure ethanol; so examples of drinks containing one unit of alcohol include one 25 ml measure of spirits (40% ABV), one 125 ml glass of weak wine (8% ABV), one half-pint (284 ml) of weak (3.5% ABV) beer, or just over one third of a pint (about 200 ml) of "premium" (5% ABV) lager. (Note that in fact most wines are about 12% ABV, so would contain 1.5 units per 125 ml glass, and that many establishments serve wine by the 175 ml glass. A 175ml glass of 12% wine contains 2.1 units of alcohol).

To determine how many units an alcoholic drink contains a simple formula may be used:

(ABV*ml)/1000

Thus, a "shot" of 40% ABV liquor in the US (approximately 44ml vs. 1.5 US fl oz) is actually 1.76 units of alcohol ((40*44)/1000). As a result, one U.S. "shot" of alcohol is almost double the amount experienced by the international community. As a result, "shot-takers" in the United States should be aware of the differences between the two standards and adjust accordingly to prevent alcohol overconsumption. Alcoholism, addiction to alcohol, is a major public health problem. Alcoholics develop a number of health problems, with cirrhosis of the liver among the most significant. Unlike withdrawal from some other drugs/intoxicants such as the opioids, withdrawal from heavy alcohol consumption can produce delirium tremens that can be fatal.

If you've never drank before a 6 pack should do the trick quite nicely
