I've always HATED people who starts their sentence with "it's the alcohol that made me..." It's irritating BUT CAN IT REALLY BE TRUE!?

I think - a twentytwoyearold'spointofview - people drink to release themselves from the stress and the repressive cuffs they make themselves wear everyday. They drink because alcohol releases the said cuffs and empowers the individual to his/her most uninhibited.

In reaction to this release, individual is overcome with a certain unreal strength that is bordering on appalling.. or outrageousness.

Personally, I find it a relief. It's fun to drink. BUT it will never be one of my excuses for things said or done. I don't have much vacancy up there in my head unlike people who pleads that they were drunk when they hit their wives/children, or kill/rape/murder somebody else. PBTHHHHH.

what's the most audacious thing YOU did that made you used that line?

    [slaps forehead] Why do I always end up with topics that people don't want to talk about!

    No matter. I respect your opinion.

    Somehow. I just don't believe that.

    Let's see...

    'I was pissing fire for two hours the next day' <- I think is about the only time I've used the 'alcohol made me' card.

    I don't subscribe to the "it's ok, i'm drunk, therefore I have an excuse for being an ass" philosophy.

    I'm constantly amazed at how some people react when they drink, it's as if they stop taking any responsibility at all for their actions. But then again, I don't like being drunk to begin with. I like drinking, but only in moderation.

    I get what you mean! I don't know WHY PEOPLE THINK THAT that line, "alcohol made me," is excusable. It's not.

    When I forget certain events when I was drunk, I'd say I was drunk.

    When I danced like mad, I'd say I was drunk (I'm not much of a dancer in clubs)

    When I got flirtatious, I'd say I was drunk (I can't flirt)

    When I kissed my girlfriends, I'd say I was drunk.

    When between the sheets I acted as if I was in Vivid production, I'd say I was drunk. (I'm quite inhibited)

    So, what do those make me?

    Cheers :)

    sigroid: that's nothing compared to what my friends did when I blacked out.

    They left me to sleep hugging the toilet.

    YEAHHHHH. Good times.. good times.. ;)
