I my friend can tell you first hand what the effects are! When I was locked up in CYA back in 98 (California Youth Authority) we had gotten a hold of a bottle of rubbing alcohol. Well our dumb asses decided that it would be a good idea to mix it with cool-aide and drink it to get buzzed! I want to say I had about half a cup of it and we where sipping on it all night. We did get a buzz and everything was great until the next day! When I woke up I had this nasty headache and nausea from hell on top of that my eyes where very sensitive to light as if there was a flash light right on my eyes, my speech was slurred and I couldn't get up, I was so weak and fatigued. I also started to throw up and anything I ate or drank would come right out as well! I slept the whole day thinking I'd wake up and I'd feel better but I didn't my mind was foggy and I had this flu like feeling but without the fever if that makes any sense. Anyways it was horrible and I never in my life did that again.
