By rubbing alcohol I mean the stuff that comes in a plastic container and is used for cleaning and medical purposes. How much of it would you have to drink to see symptoms?

I really appreciate you guys caring enough about me to tell me this. I am a 14 year old boy and I have this mad desire to see what it feels like to get drunk. My parents just bought a bottle of wine and I've been sneaking a few gulps but I wanted to do something major like drink an entire beer or something you know. I'm just very curious about alcohol. I really appreciate your concerns.

OK, the answer is pretty simple....regular drinking alcohol is also a poison. too much of it will kill you. the difference is that the alcohol in rubbing alcohol compounds is half as intoxicating and 3 times as deadly. In other words...
To get as drunk, you have to drink twice as much, but that would be like having 6 poison doses! So by the time you feel drunk you'd also feel dead, or if your lucky be blind with no kidneys.
DON"T DO IT!
Now, some rubbing alcohol preparations do use Ethyl alcohol (drinking alcohol), but they have a bittering agent making it undrinkable. you throw it up as soon as it goes down, if you can swallow it.
Remember, even regular drinking alcohol is POISON in large quantities, treat it with respect!

How old are you?! Why on earth would you even consider risking your health (or even you life) just to get drunk? Drinking rubbing alcohol of any kind can make you extremely sick. How about waiting until you can buy real alcohol before you try getting drunk.

Its a different sort of alcohol. Ethyl alcohol is the alcohol you drink. Rubbing alcohol will kill you.

don't do it man. It is pure alcohol of the wrong sort. there are two kinds, isopropyl and ethyl alcohol.Ethyl is the consumable sort. Isopropyl can literally cause blindness, hence the term blind drunk.

no. rubbing alcohol is ethanol alcohol. the stuff in drinks is grain alcohol. it will have some effects on you before it kills you. but you wont be intoxicated

If you drink enough it will not only kill you but also embalm you after you're dead. The stuff turns into formaldehyde.

No, but you can get dead or destroy necessary organs such as your kidneys and spend the rest of your life on dialysis.
