Hangovers are a particularly spiteful affliction because on top of the poisoning in your brain and gnarled barbed wire in your stomach and the random vomiting, there’s a lingering sense of guilt. You spent all of the day before watching a Millionaire Matchmaker marathon and now you’re too hungover to move out of running distance of your toilet. What you need — what we all need — is a way to get hammered while simultaneously doing something constructive and good for society. And the Cans 4 Cans Food Drive satisfies that need. The North Texas Food Bank is in dire need of donations, and you can get one beer voucher for every canned good that you bring to Red Arrow Contemporary, 1130 Dragon St., from 4 to 8 p.m. There will be DJ and food trucks present, and all ages are welcome. There’s a limit of three beers per person, but it’s an excellent way to pre-game for a cause. Call 682-216-6319 or email [email protected] for more information and for the most needed items.
