One-Star Hangover (*)

No pain. No real feeling of illness. You're able to function relatively well. However, you are still parched. You can drink 5 sodas and still feel this way. For some reason, you are craving a steak & fries.

Two-Star Hangover (**)

No pain, but something is definitely amiss. You may look okay, but you* have the mental capacity of a staple gun. The coffee you are chugging is only increasing your rumbling gut, which is still tossing around the fruity* pancake from the 3:00 AM Waffle House excursion. There is some definite havoc being wreaked upon your bowels.

Three-Star Hangover (***)

Slight headache. Stomach feels crappy. You are definitely not productive. Anytime a girl walks by you gag because her perfume reminds you of the flavored schnapps shots your alcoholic friends dared you to drink. Life would be better right now if you were home in your bed watching Lucy reruns. You've had four cups of coffee, a gallon of water, three iced teas and a diet Coke---yet you haven't peed once.

Four-Star Hangover (****)

Life sucks. Your head is throbbing. You can't speak too quickly or else you might puke. Your boss has already lambasted you for being late and has given you a lecture for reeking of booze. You wore nice clothes, but that can't hide the fact that you only shaved one side of your face. (For the ladies --it looks like you put your make-up on while riding the bumper cars.) Your eyes look like one big red vein, and even your hair hurts. Your sphincter is in per petual spasm, and the first of about five ****s you take during the day brings water to the eyes of everyone who enters the bathroom.

Five-Star Hangover (*****)

You have a second heartbeat in your head, which is actually annoying the employee who sits in the next cube. Vodka vapor is seeping out of every pore and making you dizzy. You still have toothpaste crust in the corners of your mouth from brushing your teeth in an attempt to get the remnants of the poop fairy out. Your body has lost the ability to generate saliva, so your tongue is suffocating you. You don't have the foggiest idea who the hell the stranger was passed out in your bed this morning.

Any attempt to defecate results in a fire hose-like discharge of alcohol-scented fluid with a rare 'floater' thrown in. The sole purpose of this 'floater' seems to be to splash the toilet water all over your ***. Death sounds pretty good about right now....

THINGS THAT ARE DOWNRIGHT IMPOSSIBLE TO SAY WHEN YOU'RE DRUNK:

Thanks, but I don't want to have sex.
Nope, no more booze for me!
Sorry, but you're not really my type.
Good evening officer, isn't it lovely out tonight?
Oh, I just couldn't. No one wants to hear me sing!
 
I'm a trained professional, I don't get hangovers. One of my employees wasn't as lucky, if he had too much the night before, he looked like death warmed over.
 
I made the mistake of getting drunk on cognac . . . yes, cognac . . . many years ago. It was a five star hangover that lasted THREE DAYS. I thought I was going to die, and was afraid I wouldn't.

Nobody I know who has ever gotten drunk on cognac has done it a second time.
 
As I get older I have more 3 and 4 star hangovers and fewer 1 and 2 star hangovers, and I don't drink anymore then I used to.
 
Usually do pretty good on the Hangover Rating System...

That is till i found a drink they call "RED DEATH" in a Key West,Fl Bar.

Very appropriately named.

Yowsa ~ too many of these, and you will push the ol' 5 star rating to the Limit!

Cheers
 
I once had a 5 star hangover. Death sounded good. I was still drunk almost 20 hours after my last drink, unfortunately the 5 star hangover was already in full effect. I think drunk and hungover is even worse than just being hungover. If I didn't really enjoy the night before, I probably would have sworn off alcohol then and there.
 
Yeah I have been in the five star ranking being a sailor and all. Went out drinking started with Jose with Corona chaisers. I was new in Japan and new found friends on the ship thought it would be entertaining to get me the strongest drink in the house. Flaming Kamikazes is not one I reccomend. I remember talking with some women form Sweeden and woke up in a hotel room that wasn't mine on the floor. All was OK and my buddies filled me in on their entertainment. Never, ever touched that drink again. Bad juju. I sat in the shower for an hour, just letting the water run over me. The train ride back to the base was sheer torture I felt every move of the train like a razor blade flying through my noggin.
 
My first deployment as a Marine was a Med cruise. I was 18 at the time, and I meet Mr. Tequilla in Rota, Spain. Many tequilla's later, my buddies poured me into my rack so I could blissfully sleep it off......nooooooooooo, the Marine Corps can't let that happen. Since I was the 2nd fastest runner in my company, I had the pleasure of representing my company in the inter-service olympics held the next morning. A 5k in southern Spain in June is no way to cure a tequilla hangover. Needless to say I finished 3rd because no one could stomach coming near me during the run. You gotta love that kinda hangover :)
