Whether it’s the stinging headache that feels like a thousand hot knives behind your retinas, the 3 am kebab sitting just below your epiglottis threatening to make a reappearance, or the fact that any sort of sympathy is nowhere to be found, a hangover is a shitty, shitty time to be alive, and responsible for plenty wishing they bloody well weren’t.
But, as is the case with anything in life that’s less than perfect, irreverence abounds, and the different names for a hangover are many, varied, and often hilarious.
