Much, much, much less than I used to. Parenting with a hangover is not fun. So maybe about 1 to 2 times a year I will go all out. (But not how I used to "go all out".

A few times a year, maybe? I am a miserable, whiny, man-flu style hungover person and try to cut myself off before I get to that level of wasted. I did make the rookie mistake of mixing my drinks this past weekend though, and prosecco/rebujito/vodka ended very very poorly for me.
I voted several times a year, but it's more like once, maybe twice per year. And if you're talking about sloppy blackout embarrassing drunk, the answer is never (since college). But I'll let loose for the annual company party, a wedding, a girls trip, or like karaoke night with my mom and sister during family vacation - just to the point of being silly and feeling a little rough the next morning (and vowing I'll never drink again).
It's not very appealing anymore because KIDS IN THE MORNING. lol
I am rarely wasted. I get a hangover once a year or less. Usually it's a miscalculation of eating the right foods and drinking enough water during a night of drinking. The last time I had a hangover was when we had a 4-course tasting menu in Vegas and then went out for a night of drinking. BAD IDEA. But I rallied by mid-day the next day.
I am drunk plenty of times per year without getting a hangover.

I haven't been drunk since The Great Margarita Incident of 2009. I've been various levels of buzzed since then, but I really don't drink much at all. Wine has been giving me a really hard time lately, and that was all I was down to.

This is hard because I now get hangovers by just having a happy buzz. So, possibly 2x last year I got more than buzzed, and both times were with sport teams during end of season gatherings. This year's field hockey end of season dinner/drinks is on 2 April, so I expect to have a hangover on that Sunday following.
DH and I have no kids and love to go out and watch sports and drink, so, let's just say that I was in Vegas, then we had two sports filled weekends. We have a life style where we can easily do this.
And I hate all you people who don't get hungover. I'm 40 - the next day is usually never any fun. More tired than anything, but being old sucks.
i voted "several times a year" because, even though it's rare, it's more than once a year. probably quarterly.
but my typical consumption (which doesn't always even get me to a buzz) would lead most of you to suggesting i go to meetings/have a problem. so i'll just back away slowly now...
