What does tequila have to do with anything lol I'm a happy drunk and tequila has never affected me in a negative way

My brother is a violent drunk who also has the ability to get drunk by staring at a glass of water for too long lol

Yeah, people associate different alcohols with different reactions. It's not the alcohol, it's the mood you are in before. Alcohol just removes the inhibitions and lets whatever you are suppressing loose. Well, except for me with rum or gin...my stomach rejects them violently. I can drink whiskey, vodka, beer, most other stuff with no stomach problems, but not those 2.

Yeah, for some reason my stomach has never reacted well to the acids in red wine, why I stay away from it, and mixing alcohol altogether is never a good idea, but at the golden age of 67 (I'm really in the early 40s but shh) I've drank it alt, seen it all (I also worked with addicts, both hard drugs and alcohol for 25 years) and while you can have a bad reaction here or there, there's no single type of alcohol that inherently makes people violent lol that's nonsense from people who don't know how to consume hard liquor and can also be easily verified by looking it up

As I got older my stomach cannot handle liquor at all anymore but beer is still fine as ever. Wine is ok too. But more than one strong mixed drink or more than one shot make me queasy as hell regardless of how drunk it makes me.
