Alcohol and Sarging

[Guest]

What are your thoughts on intoxicated sarging?

Lately I have been trying to save money when I go out(because PP is stealing all my money for rent), so I either just drink water from the bar all night, or I get super drunk before I leave so I don't buy any drinks. Well, last night before heading to uptown, I got slightly drunk (well, maybe more than slightly). Being drunk helps AA a ton, I feel pretty fearless on alcohol. The downside for me is I can't think straight enough. Last night I was in a set at social house by the fireplace, I was able to stack non stop and keep the convo going (my specialty) but I feel like I couldn't get enough cnf in there. I asked the same question multiple times to the target (she's like I already told you that like twice) and I remember thinking "shit, this covno seems boring and mundane to me". Like I didn't make fun of em enough and say way out there stuff like I usually do.

So the positives on alcohol (for me at least) is that your AA is minimum, you feel kinda good about yourself and it is super easy to get into state.
The negatives are that I can't control the convo like I want to and get them laughing as much as usual, I feel like I am boring on alcohol.

So, I will do an experiment this next week, and not drink ANY alcohol before or during the time that I am out.

All you need is a buzz to diffuse AA. A slight buzz. Then, use that to open ONE set. It will more than likely go well, assuming it does, you don't need another drink the rest of the night. From this point forward, you should be able to feed off of the energy of a positive interaction.

Having said that...

I know I've been there when I think to myself that I'm totally drink and can't actually carry on this conversation. It ruins things. On the other hand, I have, on more that one occasion picked-up while totally drunk and completely unaware that I even talked to the chick that texts me the next day for a day2.

Well I got way too drunk last night and am pretty pissed about it. I basically hit a stage that I just sucked balls. There is no doubt when you are drunk you don't carry on a proper conversation for the most part. You can't think quick enough on where to take the conversation. Reaction times are down and a lot of times if it is with a sober or somewhat sober girl she will catch on real quick you are drunk and be turned off.

I have tried the sober sarging before with decent success but nothing compared to when I drank.

I think I will try what Bullrun said and try to catch a buzz(Not Drunk) and see if I can get some momentum next time out. Then just finish the night without drinking anymore. This will also save money which is a plus.

If you can get away with sober sarging I highly recommend it. I myself hate being in a bar sober though so I doubt I will ever take that path.

i feel im my best with a good buzz. i am usually more outgoing and most of the time alot more fun....the set can see my personality. if i am sober, i think too much and fuck shit up...

Something else to try is energy drinks. I stumbled on to one at Costco the other day called ESSN Organic. It doesn't have caffeine in it, and the times I've experimented with it, I've had mixed results. But the first time I drank it, I felt like I was on top of the world. I'll definitely try giving it another shot before alcohol.

I've had lots of women tell me they're turned off by the drunk guy who approaches them.

i dont really drink. like i pre-gamed a bit friday and sat. night, but i didn't feel any buzz from the alcohol and i still felt great. yeah, i do have a tougher time keeping the conversation more interesting. i will eventually get better at conversations, but at the moment, i am okay at it.
