terminal wine velocity

After having a few glasses of wine and reaching a buzz, this is the effect of gravity versus mind not allowing you to feel any more buzz. The wine begins to taste like juice and you feel no more effects regardless of continued consumption.

hayley: My cheeks felt rosy after those first 2 glasses of wine, but I no longer feel any increasing effects now that I am onto my third.

justin: that is because you have reached your terminal wine velocity.
