to continue the Questionnaire below PIP
PIP what was your first car, and the first thing you got drunk on.
My first car was a 1969 Dodge Coronet. I bought it with money I made selling ty beanie babies my grandma thought I wanted on Ebay. I wanted an American Muscle car and bought it. It took all money for gas and I didn't have it long. It looked just like that one below, same color and everything.
First drink. Fuzzy Navels and absolute vodka. I'll never drink a fuzzy navel again.
Re: to continue the Questionnaire below PIP
First car:
2002 Honda Civic Coupe, still going strong! She passed her emissions test with flying colours.
First got drunk on drink? Oh dear, that was, like 12 years ago.
I do remember the first drink I got sick from though, how's that?
Rye and Ginger, more rye than ginger
We'll just not tell H about this little fact, m'kay?
First car: 1995 black Ford Escort, but it was shared with my older brother and bought by my parents. It survived long enough for my little brother to use it through high school (2008 graduation):
I first got drunk on white Russians:
My first vehicle was a 1982 Dodge Ramcharger. Mine looked like this, but had a little more wear and tear on it when I got it in 1997. My mom required we have 4 wheel drive. I only drove it one year, and my mom deamed it unsafe because it didn't have passenger airbags.
First thing I ever got drunk off of was wine coolers mixed with vodka. Though that didn't stear me away from drinking.
First thing I drank so much of that I can't even stand the smell next to me was
I haven't had a drop of that since I was 17. (It was a long sumer in Europe)
My first car was an '87 Plymouth Horizon.
And I first got drunk on Long Island Iced Tea (and I still love them!)
My first car: 1994 Dodge Colt
I really don't remember my first time drunk. Quite possibly was a long island ice tea:
Cecilia arrived 12 October 2012
first car: 1995 Jeep Grand Cherokee
my mom had leased it new after my parent's divorce, then she figured in '98, she'd buy it and keep it until I got my license in 2001. I loved that thing and was so said when I traded it in for my "reasonable on gas" car now (Honda Accord)
first thing drunk off of.... i was "drunk" from chugging straight Absolut stolen from one of our parents liquor cabinets when I was a freshman - in high school...
I was first HAMMERED/passed out after 5 shots of Jose in 3 minutes and then copious amount of cheap beer from a "party ball"... remember those things??... that was 2 years later... surprisingly though, aside from those instances, I didn't drink much in HS...

First Car: 1997 Ford Thunderbird... Mine was light blue, but I can't find a picture of one that color.
First Drunk:
Smirnoff Ice
and Boone's Farm Blue Hawaiian
I'm not sure if this counts as my first car or not? My dad gave me his 89 Ford F250 when I was 17, however I refused to get my drivers license so he ended up selling it to someone else. I only drove it like 3 times.
First time getting drunk was from mind erasers.
Ingredients:
Add ice in an old fashion glass(or any short glass). Slowly pour Kahlua, then Vodka, then club soda into the glass, being careful not to mix them. Serve with a straw.
Drinking: Keep the straw at the bottom of the drink. Start drinking and don?t stop until you?re done. As you go through the different liquids, you get different flavors. First you taste coffee, then vodka and then the club soda refreshes your palate. At the end, you?ll have an aftertaste of chocolate milk!
My first car was actually a 1997 Saturn SC that my parents were going to use for both me and my sister, but I had my heart set on something different and since they wouldn't buy it I got a job at 15 to save up for the Mitsubishi Eclipse you see above. I remember thinking I was hot sh!t when I would roll up to school in that haha
As for my first drinking experience, I got drunk on "hunch punch" made with everclear at my first college party. There was a 20 gallon trash can filled with the stuff...it was ridiculous

first drunk drink: I discovered my mom's Long Island Iced Tea mix when I was, oh... 13? I thought it tasted horrible, so I mixed it with Kool Aid. the afternoon ended with my two friends putting me in a cold shower. fully clothed.

My first car was an '86 Chrysler Lebaron GTS. It was a total piece of junk. Didn't help that I bagged the crap out of it and blew the motor.

Aaand this is the nastiest stuff ever, but I was young, dumb and was dared to chug a 26 of vodka. Yeah, I did that and puked for 3 days after. To this day I will not touch vodka.

Let's hope that worked.
This was my graduation present: 1999 Honda CRV
And when poor Eddie (yes, I named my car) was totalled, and the insurance company gave me an awesome settlement, I bought myself: 2005 BMW 325xi (my first car)
I love my car, but it's probably one of the most impractical cars, especially somewhere were it snows and where a convertible is really only useful for abou 4 months a year.
And now for the drink:
Why I let my friends convince me that 9 shots of 100 proof vodka (vs the normal 80) was a good idea, I have no clue. To this day, I love vodka, but anything with Absolut makes me hurl.
My first car was a total lemon, so I gave it back. A 1993 Ford Probe a.k.a. Maximillion. I remember thinking, "ooooh, the lights flip up". I dropped 3rd gear within a month.
I don't remember what I was drinking all night, but this was the last thing I remember holding while I fell asleep.
first car was a 2001 Oldsmobile Alero - I got it as a gift from my parents because I earned a full scholarship for my private high school. Her name was Oldie Hawn.
this is me saying goodbye in 2007
the first thing I got drunk off of was a ghetto mixed drink of:
