"Terrible. My head is pounding and I have this constant urge to throw up."
"What happened?"
"I was at a party last night. Music, dancing, alcohol, everything you'd want. It was crazy! When I got there, I found two shots of 151 in my hands."
"Wow, what'd you do?"
"The only thing I could do: I drank them."
"That must have hit you hard."
"Yeah, but then I got into a drinking contest."
"With whom?"
"The football team."
"What? The whole football team?"
"Yeah."
"Who was on your team?"
"No one."
"No one?"
"No one."
