Heh. Yes, I did. I rather expected to dissolve into a fit of coughing, but somehow I didn’t even feel that urge very strongly. I expect I would have felt differently when I was a 140 lb teenager, but after 40 years of L.A. smog, engine exhaust, paint fumes, and god knows how many secondhand contaminants, maybe my lungs are too fucked already to notice.
I’ve never been drunk either, mostly because I’ve never found an alcoholic drink that tastes good enough for me to finish more than one. Again, when I was a scrawny teenager, one strong drink might have given me a buzz I could notice (maybe?), but now that I weigh well in excess of two bills, I can’t be bothered to drink enough to feel it.
No biggie, though. I never felt like I was missing anything.
