NeverendingRoxette said on August 6, 2005 13:57:
yes, I also start dancing, talking a lot of shit and on the next day, I feel so embarassed that I tell myself I won’t drink alcohol again. . .
but the worst thing is that I start to flirt with men AND women, that’s really bad . . .

The one and only time I was completely wasted:
Green Bay Packers v New England Patriots in the Super Bowl. I was more blitzed that Drew Bledsoe 5 minutes into the 3rd Quarter.
At the end of the game, there was this guy who was crying and carrying on about “If you were a Packer fan during the Vince Lombardi years when this was a winning team, you feel vindicated and blah blah blah....” I got up outta my chair, walked over to the tv (big screen I might add) and hollered:
“Hey... you wussy!!!! I hear your mommy callin you! It’s time for you to be breast fed, her milk’s let down!!” And proceeded to call him all sorts of names and question his parentage and whether or not he was REALLY a man...

Well not really, you can abstain from anything.....not just drinking. It just means you choose not to take part or do something. The word is used most commonly when people abstain from voting for something because they are neither for or against.

Oh i just remembered one stupid occasion when i was drunk....this is one of many stories, but this is the first one that sprung to my mind.
About 7 years ago when i finished Uni, there was a reception for everyone in our class and all of our lecturers in one of the classrooms. We were allowed to bring along our own booze. Never one to do things my halves, i brought along a bottle of Bombay Sapphire Gin and a large bin bag full of ice cubes that i took from the bar i worked in at the time. I think i consumed about 3/4 of the bottle in a couple of hours, and it is all a bit of a blur, but i do remember dancing with the bottle of gin stuffed down my trousers, and swearing in front of the lecturers. Our course leader was a stereotypical serious german woman who i was talking to with another girl of our class. This girl, a good friend of mine was joking that she was a good catholic girl and her middle name is Mary Magdalene, to which my response was, “Yes but youre anything but a f***ing virgin”. To which the course leader walked off in disgust. I seem to remember another lecturer telling me to stick my head out of the window.
Ah those were the days.....i much more sensible these days.

How funny does drunk Neil sound!! And of course you would never do anything like that anymore.....

No i really used to be a bit of a wild child when i was drunk, but ive settled down a lot over the past few years. I have the odd wild night, but mostly i just have a few drinks and a dance these days.
I remembered another occasion, which probably should have been the first story i told as i think it was the drunkest ive ever been. It was at the millenium,....i went to a party and was drinking shots of aftershock. Noone else liked it so i ended up drinking most of the bottle. I lived in Glasgow at the time, and we we went into the town centre to bring in the new millenium, but actually i dont remember leaving the party because i was so drunk. Everyone was taking it in turns to hold onto me so i didnt fall, and on arrival in the centre the police even directed my friends to the first aid tent and advised them to dump me there. They never though, and when it was a girl of approx 5’4”s turn to hold me up at 23:55, she lost grip and i fell backwards and cracked the back of my head open on the pavement. They waited until after the bells, when they took me to the first aid tent, where the nurses/doctors glued my head together. They were asking me what my name was, and i could answer “Neil”, but when they asked me what my surname was, i couldnt remember. They asked my address and i gave them the address that i had lived in 2 years previously. Apparently, i was coming onto one of the guys we were with aswell, who i didnt really know (he was straight). After that we went home and i crashed out.....woke up the next day not remembering anything and being totally ashamed of myself, especially when people were telling me what happened. I also felt like crap for about a week afterwards.

That’s even funnier than the first one. I’ve never fallen over and hit my head. But I have broken an ankle a couple of times. Didn’t hurt much at the time, carried on drinking, but the following morning, not only did I have a headache, but my foot hurt so much.
I don’t really remember the millenium night much either. Had a party at my old house with about 10 people and we got through almost 15 bottles of Champagne, 3 bottles of Vodka, 6 bottles of wine and some shot stuff. Far too much, but it was a brilliant night.
I like after shock too. I’m the only one in my group who does like it though, but my best friend Beck will drink it when she’s had a few!

I think the most stupid thing I did being drunk was.. when we finished High School we had a dinner and after party. Pupils and teachers.
We had a nice dinner with lots of wine and don’t remember what else, then we went to a disco, I was pretty wasted by then.. and I remotely remember talking with our Spanish literature teacher into changing my friend’s Monica final mark for the subject (I had got the highest mark, she got the next lower, even though we had been both the best of all the class of about 35 people during the whole course ;))
Funny thing is that when we got to pick our certificates, she had the highest mark for the subject, same as me :D I felt so embarrased but well, it worked :P
Must say I regard him, the teacher, as the best teacher I’ve ever had. Next comes the Art History and History teacher :) I don’t remember much of what the other teachers taught me, but these two I still can close my eyes and go back to 1993-1995 and remember their lessons.
Jud (moderator) said on August 6, 2005 19:19:
I remember another stupid situation. It must have been in 1994. By that time I used to go out to a heavy/hard-rock -pub and drink something called “Sangre Heavy” (yummie! Vodka, beer, lemonade and a bit of currant juice), which was sold in half a litter glasses and was getting you drunk in a second.
We used to jump around to the songs (Nirvana, Metallica and alike) like crazy.. so well, there was this guy from high school that everybody seemed to like, he was not a sunny boy, he was cute (or so they said) and rather shy.
One of the nights I was rather drunk and for whatever reason I started to flirt with him (!! ok, some friends kind of pushed me.. they had no clue that I had a gf at that time!), talking about Metallica, he seemed to be impressed that I knew so much about the band.. and from then on he always talked to me at school (we were in same class so we did talk before, but not that much). Then somebody told me he liked me.. I felt so stupid because I was absolutely not interested with him :S

I don’t think I have ever been drunk..... I am not a big drinker!
There was one time when on holiday with college in Barcelona I was a little tipsy and I made a pass at the tutor, was not being serious, was just winding the guy up he was a student teacher and so weird.... but that was 10 years ago....
But nope I don’t think I have even been drunk....
carbon_boy said on August 15, 2005 07:22:
Well well well... hehehe.... now THIS is an interesting topic! Where do I begin? LOL!
Ok, my fave being drunk story: went out to this gay club in my city, lots dragqueens there that nite. One of my best friends was working behind the shooters bar ... roundabout 3 or 4 in the morning i was tired, shloshed and was hanging around his side of the bar chatting to him. He said i must jump over and sit behind the bar and chat to him cos it looks like I’m gonna collapse any second. So i did.... a couple of minutes later a very close straight friend of mine came to the bar. Hung around a little chatting to us. Had a drink. Then as he was leaving the bar, this HIDEOUS monstrosity of a dragqueen walks up to him and tries to chat him up. Had her hands all over him. Touching and feeling his arms and his chest.... next thing she grabbed him between the legs! Seeing this and knowing that he’s gonna either punch her or at least make some kind of scene, I shot across the barcounter and pulled her wig off!!!!!! Not mentioning that this by itself was an amazing feet. For I could barely stand on my two legs, nevermind jump forward, lean and pull the queen’s wig!!! She turned around, started screaming at me - will f me up and this and that... i just handed back her wig and said shluring quite a bit: “Girl, shut it. Sjhour makeup ish cracking!” Hehehehe... My bartender friend (who didnt see me pulling her wig off) Had a go at her as well, thinking that I was all too innocent. Told her that he’ll get her thrown out of the club faster than she can say “feather boa”! LOL!
I doubt I have to mention that this story obviously travelled quite quickly around the club. I still get scournful and sometimes frightened looks from the dragqueen troop. Oh, and I’ve been banned from sitting behind the bar again. Oh well.... hehehehe....
;o)

stupid things i’ve done when drunk..........mmmmm......have you got all year? ( i will pick a selected few, the ones i can remember)
falling in a ditch after leaving a mates house (she lived out in the countryside somewhere with no street lights so it was dark) lying there for what seemed like ages just looking at the stars in the sky cos it was cool.
ooohh....also.....walked home one night and picked loads of flowers (daffodils) on the way home from ppls gardens and the road side for my mum, she wasn’t impressed with a bath full of flowers in the morning.
playing hockey with no shin pads on tour, that was a classic, couldn’t see the ball anyway.
i will also never go shopping when drunk ever again, god the crap you end up buying!
theres other stuff but i’ll be buggered if i can remember....
ahhh.....yea went to a Queen tribute band concert and there was a dance floor, was doing air guitar slides on the floor was funny as, til i got up the next morning and my knees were black with bruises.
also bashed my face falling up the stairs, chuffing hurt the next morning

Another Wednesday night, another stupid thing. What about treading on an upside plug, and one of the pins going halfway through my foot??!?! It hurt’s SOOOOO MUCH!
LaMan said on August 18, 2005 20:46:
I havent done anything worth telling but I was 19 or 20 when I was very drunk for the first time! Old :) That was in Israel.
I dont drink much because I take a lot of medicine so it would end up as a horrible headache.
pwbbounce (moderator) said on August 19, 2005 17:55:
Foot plug incident update: Doesn’t really hurt today, which is cool. Still got a big hole in the bottom of my foot though
Vixzter said on August 20, 2005 06:52:
i am never going clubbing again, god i hate clubbing...only reason i went was cos i was too pissed not to!
girl7twenty7 said on August 20, 2005 10:19:
Funny topic, i had a good laugh! As for me, i’ve never been drunk. I drink alcohol but i know when to stop.
ncurran said on August 20, 2005 12:36:
I dont really like clubbing much any more either. I dont mind it sometimes, but i would rather sit and drink and talk. Last night i was out in my hometown for the first time in about 5 months and really didnt want to come home at midnight. Luckily we found out about a bar that is open until 2:30 and we went there. You had to pay to get in like a club (though it was only £2.50), and it was like a little piano bar...quite classy, well for my hometown anyway
pwbbounce (moderator) said on August 20, 2005 12:52:
Don’t really like clubbing that much either. Luckily we have no proper clubs over here then!! But all our pubs are open till 12:45 & then clubs till 2:30, so thatisn’t too bad!
Nothing stupid happened last night! YAY!!
ncurran said on August 20, 2005 19:34:
well i was really drunk last night, and managed to not make a fool of myself, thank god. I said i was going to go out again tonight, but i’m not going to...my body cant take 2 nights in a row anymore. I did it last weekend, so theres no way i can do it again this week
Vixzter said on August 21, 2005 19:40:
clubbing sucks mostly cos of the crap music, when we did find a club that was playing likeable music it was full of over 50’s ;)
and drink is so bloody exspensive in clubs, hope the licencing laws change here soon cos i’dve much rather stayed in the pub!
pwbbounce (moderator) said on August 21, 2005 19:46:
The clubs over here are so different to ones on the mainland. There are 2 main clubs. One is purely dance/RnB and the other plays a lot of chart music, which is very popular with a lot of ages. Anyone from 20 to 50 goes in there weekly. It’s a lot of fun. Ours aren’t really clubs though. They’re just bars which open later and play loud music.
I’m not too keen on the UK clubs though
ncurran said on August 21, 2005 23:18:
Vix, i think the new English licensing laws come into effect from November dont they? I think licenses can be granted on a case to case basis without strict guidelines. So from then a lot of pubs should open later in England. Though I’m not sure, it might take a while to filter through as some pubs might wait until their current license expires before they apply for an extended one.
In Scotland we have longer to wait....I read the other day that our new licensing laws dont come into effect until 2008. Still its not as bad here as England already cos the pubs shut at midnight (some until 1am). But the Scottish government have gone one step forward with our new laws. To discourage binge drinking, they are banning happy hours and cheap drinks promotions....pretty pathetic if you ask me. So only another 2.5 years of happy hours in Scotland, but then at least the pubs should open later.
Vixzter said on August 22, 2005 16:16:
everyone seems frightend of these new laws, ok to start with theres gonna ppls going woo hoo we can drink later and so the theory is they’ll all go mad, but the way i see it is i can go out later, have a meal and then go to a pub without having to worry about the fact that bloody place shuts at 11.30pm, as is what happened on friday night, we get kicked out at closing time and i end up clubbing which is a complete rip off and also is crap unless they play music i like, which they don’t ;)
pwbbounce (moderator) said on August 26, 2005 15:54:
Friday night again, going to a Robbie Williams tribute tonight. Hopefully should be a laugh! I’ll report tomorrow re any stupid things!! lol

Utah is HORRENDOUS. Anymore, there aren’t “bars” or pubs... they’re all becoming “private clubs for members” in order to sell anything stronger than watered-down 3.2 camel piss.
pwbbounce (moderator) said on August 27, 2005 03:05:
It’s all too much!! Been drinking for far too long tonight. Must stop!
But I’m very pleased with myself - haven’t done anything stupid!! Way Ho!!
pwbbounce (moderator) said on September 17, 2005 00:03:
Thought I’d get this thread back to the top!!!
EDIT: Nothing excited happening.....!!
harriej said on September 19, 2005 19:56:
I can do stupid things then.
Possibilities are:
- singing
- dancing
- saying things I’d rather not have said the next morning (usually very honest [too honest] things I say).
But also being happy.
pwbbounce (moderator) said on August 5, 2005 23:45:
I always hate it the following morning when you realise what you’ve done the previous night, after drinking. It’s so embarrasing!!!!
What’s the worst that’s someone done?
