It is well known that waking up can be quite a drag. Perhaps
if you had a little something to take the edge off it wouldn't
be so bad?
If you went to bed sober, wake up a little sauced by making
the drip deliver 2-4 drinks the hour before your alarm clock
goes off. If you went to bed drunk,
well then just start the
drip hard and let it slowly decline over the entire sleeping
duration. This may actually mitigate the hangover.

Just wondering how well a pissed person would be able to attach an IV cannula. |

Those who are disposed to sleeping on their fronts (ie. alcoholics who risk choking on their own vomit) a tube can be inserted into the rectum and held in place by the anal sphincter to deliver the alcohol. |
|
| |
People have killed themselves with alcoholic enemas because it avoids the liver and goes straight into the systemic circulation. I don't know what the lethal dose is, but i think it's very low compared to oral alcohol. |
|

Get rehydrated while you sleep. The old urban myths of
med
students putting in their own saline drip before the shift
starts isn't too far fetched. |
|
| |
Maybe mix in a bit of vasopressin? |
|
| |
Methinks a bit of caffeine would aid the wake-up pretty well. |
|
| |
// choking on their own vomit // |
|
| |
Marginally better than choking on someone else's ... |
|
| |
// tube can be inserted into the rectum // |
|
| |
Aha, naso-gastric feeding, but for politicians. |
|
| |
// People have killed themselves with alcoholic enemas // |
|
| |
//caffeine// holy shit, now there's an idea! How
about both? How about just puring a redbull vodka
into the thing and drip that? I mean, you'd have to
let the fizz go out but there could be special
reservoirs for all that. |
|
| |
Also, it's interesting to consider the rectal route.
Perhaps little ping pong ball sized alcohol balloons
that slowly leach the stuff... Could get buzzed
during the meeting, pop pop! Hard to sell in the
stores, though. We need a much stranger species. |
|
| |
[19thly], vasopressin? To keep you from peeing,
right? Not a bad idea there too. Damn, you guys
have to really take things to the next level. Also, if
you're too drunk to use the device well, then deal
with it. Drunky gets a normal hangover! |

|
| |
//vasopressin// The interesting thing about that stuff is
that even pedants agree it reduces urination. As distinct
from micturation. Which is a dicey proposition: When
vasopressin's used to treat nocturnal urinary frequency
there's a substantial incidence of hyponatremia, which,
like alcohol withdrawal, causes a variety of exiting
neurological symptoms including seizures. |
|
| |
//We understand that Scotchmen are readily available on

immigration quota for giant blancmanges was raised. |
|
| |
We have noticed. You'd better call Mr. & Mrs. Brainsample immediately. |

Just because it is a halfbaked idea, doesn't mean it should be done in half-measures... |
|
| |
Oh, c'mon! Shooting heroin while sleeping is where it's at! |
|
| |
Personally, I like to be wired on speed while sleeping... |
|
| |
An easier solution: time release capsules. |
|
| |
Time release capsules, as [ldischler] says. Make them a bit hard to choke down, so they get washed down with plenty of water, and you get rehydration and realcoholization in one glass. (And if the guy gags and vomits, it is still a win.) |
|
| |
Anyone know what happens when alcohol is released into the duodenum rather than the stomach ? |
|
| |
If enterically-coated alcohol capsules can pass into the duodenum, and be absorbed effectivey, that might be a great way of getting "drunk" on a much lower overall dose of alcohol. |
|

That depends on your level of insurance coverage. |
