My vow: I will no longer post while drunk
This is the last thread I will start while under the influence. I no longer want to wake up and wonder what the hell I posted about last night.

Who's with me?

2. Not to Worry
It was deleted anyhow. You couldn't have meant the things you said about some of the people here. I'm sure they understand that.

11. Standard Bar Trickery
Guy is worried about how much he drank last time he was in Clancy's. Not to worry, they tell him. "You were really funny. And you kept buying the house a round! It must have set you back a fortune."

4. I post while drunk once a week
And I've only said one thing I regret. I was just going too fast and didn't take the time to consider a post before I added a sarcastic response. Simple misunderstaning, really. So now I just consider for a minute what I'm going to say, do a little editing and then write my post.

6. Exactly
Sarcasm and satire require some subtlety, and subtlety is the first thing to go when alcohol is involved.

I have a very dry and sarcastic sense of humor, and I definately think I stop being funny when I'm drinking... :shrug:

7. I never have
Of course, I haven't had a drink for almost fourteen years. Fourteen years ago a computer was so far out of my reach it's inconceivable that I could even type.

8. Question
How long would the average drunk DUer last as an undercover freeper?

I'm going to guess 2.5 posts.

9. That's what they all say
;-)

I did it once about a week and a half ago. I think it's happened to most of us. We're family. Don't worry about it. Just don't get like that weird uncle who puts the lampshade on his head and dances on the coffee table.

12. Its AA time maybe, black outs are serious, a friend had a 16oz woke up in
jail after stealing a car and robbing a quickstop with a gun.... we had this conversation just previous to that also. he decided that it was ok to drink beer, because hard alcohol was his peoplem..not beer, that was after doing 8 months in the county jail and losing his liscence for 5 years. didnt listen to me... and I had the wisdom of 30 years serious alcoholism backing me up.. he was just a puppy, now he is someones asshole bitch for the next couple decades.

14. Shit, you just made me consider AA, and I don't drink.
Or maybe I'm in denial.
