Definitely j) for me...once I hit the 3 pint limit I either go home or I'm out until the early hours!

Have you ever had the syndrome the more you drink the less drunk you are getting.

This happened to me this Christmas time and it was so not funny. All around get absolutely plastered but you.

Is there a scientific reason behind it?

Can you imagine this doing this if you're drunk:

haha!!

Oh snap! I can still see it with my eyes open, every time I blink!

Yes it's Eric Cantona!

Only joking you upstairs.

I love these things.
We had them in the psych text books in college.

Heh yeah. I had this one, surprisingly, in my physics text book!

flippin heck, that was really good!!!

I'm easily impressed but still./

Since we're getting onto psychological things, I have a cool game you can play with your friends:

Imagine you are alone in a field, and see a strawberry field in front of you with tasty strawberries.


There is a fence/gate around the field. How high is it?

How you are in the strawberry field, how many strawberries do you take?

Ok, after you have finished enjoying the strawberries, how do you feel about the farmer, who's field you took them from?

Anyone wanna answer? I'll post interpretations after a few ppl have replied

Well, I wouldn't eat very many if there was a fence around the field - maybe a handful to taste

Till im stuffed like a pig at Bel-Tine!
{That pretty much....}

the fence isn't that high, i could jump over it easily.

I'm in the strawberry field cos you said i was

i take as many strawberries as i feel i need

i feel like the farmer should be more careful and put up a higher fence

the farmers field

Having thought about this for more than a few moments.

The height of the fence or gate doesnt matter I am already in the field of strawberries.

I dont need any because I grow my own and know they are better than the commercially grown ones in the field.

I feel great in the knowledge that I grew my own and they taste so much better than the farmers.

I'll wait until tomorrow (to see if anyone else wants to answer) to post what the question means, but just a note to those people who have answered - it's not a trick question/riddle and there's not a correct answer!

I reckon this is much the same as the peaches in the orchard test i once did.
So i think at least i know what the strawberries represent.

Oh boy Yakumo i have a feeling that line is going to come back and haunt you!!


If i couldn't get over the fence i would go straight through it - wild horses wouldn't keep me out of that strawberry patch!

I would eat all the ripe strawberries until i had my fill.

It would be the farmer who would have to watch out coz i would be in there again the very next day

I reckon it is too. Answers to come later on today...

The fence isn't that high, in my mind.

How I am in the strawberry field? If that means how do I act, well I'd be like one normally would in a field, I think. Just walking around.

If you mean how did I get there, I would have gone through the gate, if there is one on my side, or over the fence if it's possible. I only take maybe 4 strawberries for a taste of them.

If they taste good, I wonder where the farmer got his seeds from. I also think he wouldn't mind as he won't even notice only 4 missing.

Ok before I post the interpretation I'll post my original answers (before I knew what they meant).

How high?
Normal size, easy to jump over.

How many?
Loads! I love strawberries!

Feel about Farmer?
If they were good then I'd be really appreciative and would probably come back for more.
