Back in my day we used to call this being "crunk", but I'm pretty sure that's been outmoded for a long while now.

    When I was in college like 8 years ago we called it getting Crossfaded. Supposedly it helped you avoid a hangover but I never experienced that lol.

      I think most of the help to prevent a hangover is that it usually slows your roll (the pace of your drinking), but only if you smoke BEFORE you start drinking. If I smoke while drinking I end up drinking a lot more. If you smoke after you have been drinking you can get the spins real bad and can easily get nauseous and end up yakking. Smoking/vaping/edibles the morning after drinking is a complete necessity and is the #1 hangover cure (or at least allows you to ignore hangover symptoms).

      This is all my own experience, everybody is different. Also, crossfaded is the common term.

        I believe this kind of math to be ex post facto, you can kind of blunt a hangover with getting high the day after but really the answer is drink enough water along with whatever alcohol you're drinking

          Oh definitely - water is the number one. I guess I take drinking tons of water while drinking and after as a given, not really a hangover cure. But yes absolutely drink lots of water.

      The way me and my friends understood it is it isn't for hangovers, but for nausea / throwing up.
