Well I'm a firm believer that people can change any personality flaw they have if they want to do so. I was always very shy, so I started going out of my way to try to talk to people when possible (I didn't randomly go up to people in the store and start talking or anything like that). What I did was when I was in a situation where I met new people I would try to talk to them even if I felt like an idiot. Most people like talking about themselves and if you ask a few questions most people will answer them. Then of course if all you do is let the other person talk about themselves most people will like you and think you are a nice guy and eventually you get less and less embarrassed. Alcohol can technically help, but only if its used in moderation. Maybe stick to 1 beer next time and see how it goes

oh, the worst part was the throwup. damn. i had cheetos and cigars with the beer. bad combo. when that shit came up....oh man, talk about nasty. my floor is still stained from that.
Yeah, I'd never recommend eating cheetos and cigars. The two most drunken instances I can remember were when I lived in Toledo and was working at TGI Fridays. There's always a "fridays dive" bar, usually right down the street so when we would get off work late we could get to the bar quickly for a few rounds before last call. The 1st instance I was only 19, drinkin at this bar underage and I wanted to buy a round of shots for a buddy and me. I says "how bout tequila". He says "OK, but if we're doing shots of tequila, we're gonna do shots of tequila the way a 70 year old Mexican guy taught me how to."
The bartender pores us doubles and my friend says "only drink half of it to start, hold the tequila in your mouth with your mouth open and inhale then swallow and suck the lemon and then exhale. It felt like fire shooting out of my mouth and we do that with 2 double shots! The other time was my 21st b-day and everyone was buying me shots.
The only one I can still remember was when one of the bartenders i worked with at Fridays goes behind the bar and mixes up a shot that I later learned wast just Grande Marnier (mid-high shelf orange liquer) with a dash of Barcardi 151. He puts it it a small brandy snifter, swirls it a couple times then ignites it with a lighter and pours it into a empty rocks glass. It looked like a tiny waterfall of fire pouring from one glass into the other. He called it "Celtic Heat"(not pronounced sell-tic)
Both times I was so wasted that I chucked all over somebody's bathroom. I have never drank tequila since then aside from an occasional margarita.

LMAO!
6 beers? damn man... what kind of beer and where do i FIND IT? lol
i remember one time my friend and i were taking turns playing morrowind when we were 17 or so and we had a large bottle of vodka. for some reason we decided to start a chugging competition. he slowed down pretty quickly but the competitor in me got a little crazy. i was chugging it like water, counting the gulps. i was hitting the 20's...
anyway, i went into a mini coma and didn't wake up for 2 days.
for 2 or 3 days after that everything i ate or drank tasted like vodka. it was horrible.
i don't drink too much liquor anymore, needless to say lol. i've had a few shots here and there but it's just beer for me now. liquor is straight up poison!
anyway, sorry about what happened tom.
i won't lie though. if i had been there i would have been laughing my ass off.
