i have the worst hangover ever. i can barely conceal it from my co-workers (who are probably starting to think i'm on drugs). should i just come out and tell them "look, i'm hungover" even though it could mean some negative ramifications if my boss hears about it?

Nooo, bad idea. Say you think you're coming down with the flu or something -- they'll probably work out you're hungover, and you won't get in trouble with the boss.

1. go to restroom
2. get on one knee over the toilet
3. insert finger in throat
4. release the evil
5. feel good

i think its office etiquite to conceal the deed, i never tell anyone, in fact i'm hungover at the moment too. bleurgh.

of course, the noise of 'releasing the evil' can only be concealed with tactical flushing. it's an art form, i should think.

You can pretend to be bulemic. Just mumble "I'm so fat" between each egress of vomitus. There is absolutely no way in the world that that could ever do anything other than make your life better

i've been making constant trips to the bathroom since i got in -- three pukes in an hour and a half. when is it going to stop? i'm very tempted to say that i have the runs and that i'm very dehydrated.

I was expecting a picture of someone with mingface from the thread's title

Would you actually use the words "Excuse me boss, I have the runs"?

― Chris V. (Chris V), Friday, 11 October 2002 15:08 (twenty-three years ago)

uhm no ... the only reason i got so drunk last night is because i knew i wouldn't run into my boss all day.

i just threw up again (number four, not counting the one on the way to catch my train and not counting vomiting on my girlfriend's floor in the middle of the night).

so i went downstairs and bought a bottle of gatorade and some chips, reasoning that it was a combination of sodium deficiency and dehydration. i'm feeling slightly better. i may be able to let this one slide.

go home!

don't tell them you're hungover because every morning from now until the end of time your bored co-workers will make lame 'heh heh how ya feeling today, partyman?' cracks if they know you were hungover once

vomiting six times. Jesus! IV to thread!

Do the runs thing! I once used it in a discipliary hearing (it was the genuine reason why I missed a meeting), and no-one will want to know any further information. It also means that you can take a rest in the loo any time you like!

Presumably your hangover has gone away by now. Still.

six years pass...

I am very hungover at the moment and I have a 5 hour drive ahead of me that I'm putting off by reading ILE.

I have been hungover all day despite not drinking very much at all last night. Serious dehydration (have drunk about six pints of orange squash, no end to dehydration), nausea that hasn't developed into actual vomiting but won't go away, and complete exhaustion. I've felt better after being actually proper drunk, but this is too much suffering for not even enjoying the journey to get this ill.

(I'm putting it down to the large amount of pain-killing meds I've been on for the last fortnight)

My friend had a birthday party with many bottles of wine. After finishing off the wine, we started drinks markers on the rocks at 4 in the morning. We hadn't seen each other in 3 years. I should still be sleeping.

See, it's acceptable to have a hangover for that. This is like nearly midnight and I still feel like shite, and I had like four glasses of wine or something.

― ailsa, Sunday, 12 July 2009 22:39 (sixteen years ago)

Did you not eat a full dinner?

― Jacob Sanders, Sunday, 12 July 2009 22:41 (sixteen years ago)

Yeah, I did. And snacks throughout the evening as well. Seriously, this is some epic hangover shit that I totally do not deserve at all.
