One evening, a Eurasian guy and Indian lady (alias Nick and Geeta) boarded the bus I was on and they started chatting while standing beside my seat. Obviously Nick was trying his best to impress Geeta that he was a party goer and would not get drunk easily. Then Geeta was keen to know how was he able to hold his alcohol so well, and so was I.
[Their conversation recalled from my best of memory]
Geeta: How did you manage to drink so much without getting drunk?
Nick: Oh well, I've never gotten drunk in my entire clubbing life.
Geeta: Wow! Not even a lil tipsy?
Nick: Hmm, sometimes... BUT I have a simple trick to get over it instantly.
Geeta: Like how? [keen look]
Me: [Super keen look]
Nick: Erm I do pushups. I can do 50 all at once. [puts his 5 fingers up]
Geeta: Are you sure? Won't you get dizzy? [hysterical laughter]
Nick: Definitely not. That's me. I can't say the same about others though.
Geeta: Next time I definitely have to go clubbing with you then. To see you do pushups.
I gotta give him thumbs up, not because of the 50 pushups. Just that he got a girl tagging on a date with him without having to do the asking. Anyway I've got friends blacking out after doing full sprints and star jumps after getting drunk. So I'm not sure if his natural remedy to cure tipsy-ness is effective. Perhaps I'll recommend a more effective one that I heard from a friend.
It is GATORADE!
