The Asian Flush

[daz0r]

So lately I've decided to start having a double shot (or triple) of whisky before bed to expediate the process of getting to sleep. Tonight I noticed my skin was getting pretty blotchy red and thought, hell I'd do a bit of google research on the cause of this

I am reading your LJ :)

Very interesting indeed - I've seen this alcohol flushing in person and in some people it just looks awful D:

My friend did mention that it's pretty normal that he turns red... but when he turns white - that's when he's really drunk. I suppose that's a convenient way to tell when you've had too much XD

hah so asian people turn white when they get drunk... the racial subtext XD

of course we still read! I...don't really have anything else to add other then it's amusing when you guys turn pink/red XD
