Lather Effect

(n.) or (v.)
The effect of not being able to get drunk because of a high-state of trashedness the night before.

If you have been highly wasted one night, and try to get inebriated the next night it will cost you a fortune because it's nearly impossible.

The term comes from trying to lather a loufah, but it will not lather if there is still soap in it from the day before.
"I got so throwed on Thursday night there's no way I can get drunk tonight, you know...lather effect."

Dude 1: "You've had like 7 drinks and you're still a freakin intellect"

Dude 2: "Lather Effect, I had a crazy night last night."
