Hungover yeah not good, but I find a beer or two can give you a different perspective on something that's exactly what you need sometimes. Like how you solve problems in your sleep or in the shower, sometimes just saying 'screw it' and doing something sloppily gives you the clarity needed for the real answer


For tricky problems I liked to take a 10 min walk to the pub a pint and a couple of games of pinball (thinking over the problem whilst doing so)
