Drunken oddness

[Solari]

Following on from the "Time Thread"...

Does anyone else notice that when you've had a skinful, music seems to play back either much slower or much faster than normal for some odd reason?

Does this mean that alcohol has properties that bend space/time?


EDIT: I know I shouldn't be drinking when doign a week of earlies but meh.

Sure you dont mean ecstacy?

Nah done that before (not proud of it either), and I'm sure alcohol does it to a lesser extent too. I do a lot of music stuff and a bit of composing, and sometimes I get home and try to work on things and think, "bloody hell this sounds really slow". The next day it sounds fine though when I'm sober.

No, time is still flowing at a constant rate, only your perception of it is altered.

 

[Gilly]

Nope, never noticed that.

 

[Solari]

Nope, never noticed that.

You're obviously not drinking enough

 

[Gilly]

You're obviously drinking beyond your capacity.

I find music is louder when im drunk, not too sure about it playing at a different rate

That's odd, I find that it is less noticeable and quieter when I'm drunk so if I want to know a particular song I've got to concentrate more. I'd agree though that I haven't noticed it changing speed.

I find it slower and quieter when drunk, so I usually listen to faster songs louder.

I find the pitch changes when I yawn.

i think it does bend space time. it also seems to affect mavity because i sometimes find it harder to stand.
also walls and floors that were once level appear skewed as if mavity has been offset somehow.
for me time speeds up because before i know it it's the middle of the next day.

Agreed. You start the party with normal paced much, and when everyone is mashed you play super fast stuff so everyone raves!

I've found numerous times, i find random songs on myspace when i get home from a night out, and think its amazing, playing it over and over, eventually end up passing out on bed, waking up next day, and wonder why the hell i was listening to that carp!

Nobel prize winner right here.

Alchohol has been proven to affect time and space. You too can prove it yourself with a simple experiement. Go to your local pub and drink lots of beers in comparison to your friends, once youre finished walk the 10 minutes back to the residence. Your friends will tell you they have been back for 3 hours already, this shows that people not drunk actually move through time at a very different pace.

 

[Johnny Girth]

Never noticed it.

Now laughing gas on the other hand...that slows time down crazy!

a certain drug sometimes used to put horses to sleep causes slow motion

trying to work out where all the extra time came from baffles brains into submission

mad beans

Could be that you've gone from the pub to the club, but in your drunkeness the only thing you notice to have changed is the volume of the tunes

Alcohol makes songs sound slower to me.
