<p>I’ve never had pleasure of wearing the goggles but it seems pretty disorienting. Yah, you heard my question. Answer, k?</p>

<p>Lol, those goggles are funny, it really is hard to walk in a straight line with them on :). </p>

<p>It really depends on the person, some people can handle 4 beers, some people can handle 10 or more.</p>

<p>It depends on if you’re male/female (guys can usually handle more), how big you are, what you’ve eaten that day, and a little plain genetics. It doesn’t REALLY look like the goggles but if you drink enough you’ll have about as much of a hard time walking.</p>

<p>didnt u do alcoholedu</p>

<p>1 beer and your incapacitated. you’ll sexually assault a library person.</p>

<p>The goggles are there to imitate the disorienting nature. You have to be pretty drunk/wasted to imitate that, because you’re not going to lose your balance just off a few beers.</p>

<p>oh
see my plan is i’mm always quiet and tense and see how many beers til i’m loose and sociable. I already know that 1.5 jugs just makes me red and I’m still cognizant. Sure I was cheery then, but it was also a family occasion and I’m cheery regardless of booze kthx</p>

<p>That’s a mug.</p>

<p>darn… i was hoping that “jug” meant one of those jugs with the x’s on them. lol… i’m kinda disappointed that its just a mug. :cool:</p>

<p>My health class in middle school made us do the beer goggles. I actually walked in a straight line AND threw a tennis ball in a cup.</p>

<p>“Beer goggles” in the sense of not being able to see straight doesn’t really happen until you drink way too much…</p>

<p>Most people, in fact, get better at beirut the drunker they get.</p>

<p>But other than that, “beer goggles” can refer to people of the opposite (or same, depending on your preference) sex looking a lot better than they actually do… Trust me, this happens alot…</p>

13

<p>It’s true, I’m better at ruit once I’m a little drunk. And it’s not that other people look better, it’s that you just think “**** it” and think you’ll be able to blame the alcohol later.</p>

14

<p>Hmm, actually it is because other people look better. One judgment that isn’t lost with alcohol is not wanting to get with less attractive people because that’s the kind of thing that’s hard-wired into your mind (along with breathing and thinking).</p>

15

<p>i remember for my driving class we had the “drunk goggles”, yet it didn’t represent what its like on .08, but some ridiculous number BAC like .26</p>

<p>It doesn’t look like the drunk goggles, you just get to a point when you stop caring about how you’re walking so you don’t really pay attention to how much you’re stumbling about. Usually I’m thinking about the pizza I’m about to go get and eat, and most of the time my eyes fall in and out of focus as I try to hit the landmarks on my way to the pizza place. Of course, that’s after a lot of beers (10+).</p>

17

<p>if someone is hooking up with you when drunk, they would do it anyway when sober, but lack the nerve to do it, or would be ostracized so they use the alcohol as an excuse.</p>

18

<p>The “drunk goggles” (at least the ones I’ve tried) just shift your vision by a few degrees in one direction or the other. The result is an extremely disorienting effect anytime you try to interact with your environment, presumably because your eyes and brain are getting conflicting signals. Actually being drunk impairs you in different, much more subtle ways that can’t really be simulated.</p>

<p>We had really cool ones at school…you couldnt walk at all with em on. Actually the feeling of not having balance is realistic. The vision isnt though.</p>
