Caraccioli Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Ok, first off (and I expect I'll wind up repeating this) I'm not talking about your fantasy about 69 virgins and 3 slim llamas. Please save that nonsensical guff for The Way to a Pyrate's Heart forum. I'm asking what you do when you've a skinfull of the stuff. Are you playful? Belligerent? Coy? Dippy? Obnoxious? Dancing on the tables? I was dining with friends this eve and watching a couple sink slowly into intoxication. At the start of the dinner, She had a scarf on and her arms literally in front of her and He looked distracted and worried about something. By the end of the dinner, Her hair was down, the scarf off and the elbows were splayed on the table while He gazed directly into her eyes (or possibly down her gaping shirt). It was like watching those time-lapse photos where a flower opens. Me, I get more obnoxiously philosophical and start asking increasingly odd questions like, "What are you like when you're drunk?" (This is why I generally tend to drink with my fellow (alleged) philosophers.) So...what are you like when you're drunk? The PG answer. (Not even PG-13.) "You're supposed to be dead!" "Am I not?"

hitman Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 Me I become a charicture of my normal personality. The normaly understanding fun loving indvidual is even more so than I get smashed and want to go to bed. Pretty simple really Lewis Grizzard the late columnist used an eleven stages of drunkeness guide to open his book "My Daddy was a Pistol" If I can find it I'll post it as it describes even better what happens when I get drunk.

CaptainCiaran Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 One of the joys of growing older is that I'm a cheap date now. LOL Give me a couple glasses of wine or a strong cocktail and any of the following may occur: 1) I become very amourous and more charming than usual; 2) I become very talkative, humourous, and animated, letting down my inhibitions to become quite visibly 'gay'; 3) I want to hear music and/or go dancing; 4) All of the above. I wonder if one of the most important steps on our journey is the one in which we throw away the map. -- Loreena McKennitt My fathers knew of wind and tide, and my blood is maritime. -- Stan Rogers I don't pretend to be captain weird.

Mad Matt Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I'm normally pretty quiet, anyways. Always lookin' like I'm pissed off. When I'm snockered, 'tis much worse. If I drink tequila, I start lookin' fer a fight. Uhhh...hence I stay away from tequila... You will be flogged. And God willing, come morning, you will be flogged some more.

Red-Handed Jill Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I get quieter and more withdrawn and then descend into apathy. It's been quite a few years, but I recall that I'm definitely not one of your "dancing on the table wearing a lampshade and flirting like mad" kind of drunks.

Caraccioli Posted November 18, 2005 Author Share Posted November 18, 2005 I get quieter and more withdrawn and then descend into apathy. I'm like that when I am drinking in a place with a lot of people. That's why I don't generally enjoy going to bars or big parties. Apathy describes the final state quite well. If I'm really exercising my capacity, I eventually wind up sinking so far into myself that I want nothing more than be by myself in my little spinning world. That's why I'm pretty cautious about how much I drink. Thanks, Mick! I try, surely I do...people - particularly the reasons they do and think things - fascinate me. "You're supposed to be dead!" "Am I not?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cpt Sophia M Eisley Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I'm of like mind with Christine on this subject. I've never been drunk, and if I've ever gotten a (short lived) buzz, I know it's time to stop. If I'm with people who I am comfortable having said buzz around, I try to keep as even keeled as I can possibly be considering the circumstances, though I know I can be a tad more giggly, humor driven, or into deeper discussion. I'm not much for bars...if I do go to one, I'm usually getting an iced tea and a goofy look. Perhaps we'll meet again under better circumstances. ---(---(@ Dead Men...Tell No Tales.

Barbados Sam Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 I'm not a big drinker, but when I do get tipsy, I like to laugh and I get real warm and "I love you man" fuzzy. Then I fall asleep. "There be the chest, inside be the gold, we took them all. Spent them and traded them. We frittered them away on drink and food and pleasurable company. The more we gave them away, the more we came to realize... the drink would not satisfy, food turned to ash in our mouths, and all the pleasurable company in the world could not slake our lust. We are cursed men....Compelled by greed we were, and now we are consumed by it." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey Carter remember Hollywood, we ended up in Compton, one hell of a night. Usually I'm pretty chill, its kinda like weed, I get all smiley and laid back. Sometimes I'm happy and bouncy, really depends on what I drink and the mood I'm in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fox Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 First off, I have a really odd tolerance to alcohol. I recall on one occasion drinking 17 pints, then walking home and starting on the port. Couple of my mates got hungry so I whipped up an omelette, didn't burn it, did the washing up and went to bed only just the wrong side of sober. On other occasions I've puked and passed out after 5. Some nights I can really handle my alcyhole, some nights I really can't. When I get drunk I go one of two ways. I philosophise deeply for an hour or two and then want nothing more than to go to bed. OR I get filled with bravado. Not your usual macho bravado, but a kind of stupid, daft bravado. Suddenly, someone needs to direct traffic, and I am the man to stand in the dual-carriage way and do it. If I need to be sick I'll deliberately go off to find the highest possible point I can to do it from. That kind of thing. If I get drunk on wine I feel like I become the world's greatest lover, but I'm probably more akin to Pepe le Pew. This is why I don't get drunk all that often... birthdays, Christmas, days with the letter "y" in their name...

The Doctor Posted November 18, 2005 Share Posted November 18, 2005 It depends upon the booze, really. Tequila - Extroverted, comical, adventurous Rum - Out of control party animal Wine - Mouthy, mildly extroverted, easily confused Beer - Mischievious, loud Vodka - Not a nice person at all, which is why I never touch it anymore Whiskey - Sick Moonshine - I can't remember, nor can anyone else...

Red-Handed Jill Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Wow, Mad Jack - that's certainly a wide assortment of drunken states! The only difference it makes to me is if I drink a lot of beer I make more trips to the washroom. I think it's a safe assumption that pretty much everyone can say the same thing (about the beer and washroom visits, that is...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Jim Posted November 20, 2005 Share Posted November 20, 2005 I don't change all that much. Perhaps too much practice. I often find other people more pleasant though. Is it that they are more pleasant, or that my perception changes? Need more research... My occupational hazard bein' my occupation's just not around...
