Could it have something to do with the "impurities" and ancillary ingredients outside of alcohol? I agree that it likely has more to do with the psychological state of the person at the time of consumption. Who knows, maybe when you're already worked up you crave vodka. Could it be a case of the chicken and the egg? What came first the agitation or the vodka?
The thought of the impurities had occurred to me as well. I don't think there is any real way to know for sure without proving that the same impurities are in every vodka bottle, and vise-versa for rum, tequila, and neutral spirits. But I do think that psychological state has a lot to do with what type of drunk you are.
