Here's an interesting invention...it lets you breathe alcohol vapors, which in turn makes you drunk and no hangovers.
And they say those who "drink to get drunk" are alcoholics. This is a whole new playing field. Does this:
-Take away the fun of drinking?
-Give the drunk a great way to get drunk without turning into a slob the next day?

I'd rather drink.
Good grief, slappy. That machine is like inhaling food that gives you a full feeling without the calories. Half of the medicinal part of a nice mixed drink is the relaxation and socialization; however, if a person has an alcohol problem, it might help by breaking all the associated actions such as filling the glass, tossing down the drink, etc. I've heard it said that the main liner doesn't do it so much for the effects of the drug, as for the feel of the needle in the arm.
Imagine playing "drinking" games with that thing? Everyone would be dead.
An' how many people you know like to smoke while they're drinking...?
These people I knew in Seattle made this -- stuff -- every now and then on the stove. Don't remember the name of it, but it was basically equal parts cheap red wine and vodka with some spices thrown in and heated. Inhaling the vapors off that stuff was harsh.
Me, and I swear if I quit smoking, I would never have another drink.
