What physical effects do you feel due to intoxication?

Asked by MrItty (17406points) July 23rd, 2010

I’ve had a couple tonight, and am feeling the effects. I’m wondering if most people feel the same things. When I get tipsy or drunk, what I experience is:
* an odd pain in my jaw
* a lack of caring about details (like refilling the water pitcher just now)
* a reduction in depth perception – like I somehow forget how far down the sofa is and fall onto it when I go to sit
* when I turn my head, the universe seems to take an extra half second to catch up.

Do you experience any or all of those when inebriated? Do the physical effects you feel differ with the kind of alcohol you ingest? I typically only drink Rum & Coke or flavored malt beverages.
