Hey all, I got into the trade last year in Oregon and moved out to Louisiana to get into an apprenticeship program. It’s all going well, minus the umm unique work culture, but now I’ve been told after becoming a first step that I have to butt chug a four loko. I drink on occasion but I think that’s A LOT and my foreman is saying it’s a lineman tradition. I don’t want to get in trouble here for asking, but I was just wondering if this was an actual thing.
They also want to paint my unmentionables with the same paint that’s used to cover towers. I asked my old Oregon coworkers about it and they didn’t believe me, so I’m just asking here
And three d8 edibles.
Y'all I might die tonight 💀 💀
What are your best/funniest/light hearted "I thought I was going to die" moments?
Four Loko obviously isn't most people's go-to drink (although I consider myself firmly in the Four Loko fan club), but most people will agree Watermelon is the most palatable of the many Four Loko flavors. At 12% ABV, there's not much you can find for cheaper that tastes better.
They actually released a new flavor a couple months back, Sour Melon, and it SLAPS. It's basically Watermelon but in the 14% ABV bracket. Four Lokos come in either 12% or 14% ABV. Watermelon, the universally best flavor, is 12%. This new Sour Melon is 14%, but it tastes almost exactly like Watermelon. Except it's 14% ABV vs 12%.
It's now the best flavor of Four Loko, because they managed to make the flavor almost identical to Watermelon but they bumped the ABV up by 2%.
This flavor wasn't available in my immediate area like Watermelon, Sour Apple, and Gold were, but I managed to find some in the next city over, 10 miles away from my house, and immediately bought their entire stock. I will never regret that decision, because Sour Melon is amazing.
Say you're a Four Loko novice, or even a hater, but you've admitted to yourself that the Watermelon tastes pretty decent for the price and ABV. Sour Melon is BETTER. There's just no question. You get 2% more ABV and it tastes almost as good as the 12% Watermelon.
If I put myself in the mind of someone who doesn't really like Four Loko, but sees the merit of Watermelon, I see Sour Melon winning a taste test once I find out there's a 2% ABV difference between the two. I mean it's like if a Bud Light was 6.5% instead of 4.5%, but it tasted virtually the same.
It just seems like a can of instant death.
I know what you're thinking. When's the last time anyone heard of Four Loko. That's not the point. It's an ever present potential threat that might at some point impact our community maybe. Since at least one person has died while drinking Four Loko, we need to acknowledge the danger it presents to our community at all times and stop it from ever happening. I'm also the only person to lose Sim City in under five minutes.

To elaborate, a friend of mine had a Four Loko Gold drink two nights ago and it got left in the fridge in an uncovered cup for about 12 hours. The smell is now permeating everything in our fridge and freezer. Leftover enchiladas heated up with some queso? tastes like four loko. Water from the brita? tastes like four loko. etc etc.
How do we get rid of the smell without throwing everything out?
okay so i took75 mg hydroxyzine pamoate (3 25mgs) and i’m currently drinking 2 four lokos will i be ight? and how long will it take for me to sober up?
anyone know the calories in four loko? can't find them anywhere
I’ve always preferred smoking over drinking but recently I’ve gotten more into it. I went to a gathering last night for Halloween eve and it wasn’t something big so no one was really drinking other than my friend and I. We got three cans to share and I drank one and a half. Bro I was so fucked up so I don’t remember much but I do remember throwing up twice in their yard (which I’m super embarrassed about) Even now, the morning after, my stomach feels very nauseous and I’ve been throwing up
I’m never getting that nasty ass drink again.
I’ve had this sh*t opened in my fridge like a week and a half. Flat as hell, but I’m not tryna waste anything. Not really an alcoholic but why waste it if it’s drinkable? Lol. Is it safe to drink? I’ve never had something left for this long. It’s basically full so I don’t wanna dump it if I don’t gotta since they cost like $4 a piece lmao.

How the fuck were these ever popular? They taste sodamn bad and I feel gross now. Also I'm drunk now so what's up fam?
I’d call it Eight Loko.
Yes, I know the best way to get Four Loko is not getting Four Loko at all. But...
are there any places near campus with a decent selection of Four Loko? I know Mad Greek's has it but only in a couple of the worse flavors and Savas only has two or three types. Are there any other liquor stores or pizza places nearby with it?
