University of Missouri "researchers" have determined that there are 4 types of drunks. They based it on people's behavior and demeanor after becoming intoxicated.

Which category do you fall in to?

Hemingway
These subjects reported experiencing the smallest decrease in organizational and intellectual skills and are "drinkers who tend not to undergo drastic character changes or experience harms" (meaning you probably won't have to worry about getting kicked out of a bar if you're a Hemingway).

Mary Poppins
This is the smallest group and is made up of the happy, sweet drunks.

Nutty Professor
This group is made up of the quiet, introverted type that suddenly become the life of the party when drunk.

Mr. Hyde
This group becomes "particularly less responsible, less intellectual, and more hostile when under the influence of alcohol.

Wonder if they tested the effects of different types of alcohol, I know I have different reactions depending on the type.

I'm a Hemmingway unless it's brown liquor, then I tend to get a bit hyde-ish.

Depending on the alcohol I would say Hemingway for beer and nutty professor with liquor. Mainly liquor turns me into a big but harmless flirt
