    @ uncle tom . I turn 39 this july


  • Registered Users Posts: 793 ✭✭✭vicecreamsundae


    i definitely do, because i didn't start drinking until i was 23!! it was such a good night out, and i wasn't too hungover the next day or anything which gave me a false sense of security that i was magically able to drink ANYTHING. paid for it the second time i got drunk.

    Beach party in the Gaeltacht, aged 20.
    Warm cans of cider and Southern Comfort, coupled with dehydration and an empty stomach on the hottest day of 2008.

    Epic night!

    Yes I can in the local park with a couple of friends.

    The gaurds drove by one time during the night and we all all ducked except for one friend who, when we turned around/got up, had taken off his t shirt as he thought

    "sure they'll never see me if my t shirt is off, i'll jus blend in like"

    good times

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,228 ✭✭✭bluto63


    When I was 15 on a building site in Spain at night. Was fairly boring tbh. My 2nd time getting drunk was much more fun! I think....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 14,670 ✭✭✭✭Wolfe Tone


    I remember, first time I got mega hammered was on my 18th :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,805 ✭✭✭Rothmans


    I can't quite remember the exact age, but I've never drank Bulmers since and I never will do so again.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,659 ✭✭✭CrazyRabbit


    It was New Years night in 1985. Myself and my mate stole some bottles from my uncle's fridge.

    Within an hour we were totally pissed. I remember lying down on the Ballyfermot main road, looking up at the stars and thinking it was hilarious because the stars were moving. It was about 1am, so not many cars thankfully.

    Some woman spoiled the fun and called the Gardai. I guess she didn't like our rendition of 'show me the way to go home'. They brought us home to our parents who thought we were sleeping safe in my cousins house. I was grounded until I was almost 10....2 months later.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,838 ✭✭✭✭3hn2givr7mx1sc


    Yep, twas behind a shed across the road from an under 16 disco I was going to, it was great.:D
    A naggin of vodka and a bottle of Bulmers, no pukage, so it was all good.


  • Registered Users Posts: 274 ✭✭neil_


    First time I got proper hammered was age 18, my parents were gone away so my sister & I invited a few of our friends over. We played some drinking game where one person had to touch their nose and then everyone else had to do it and the last person drank... I'm not the most socially aware at the best of times, and I'd already had a few, so this resulted in me drinking about 6 shots in the space of 15 minutes. I vaguely remember drinking vodka and mickey finns from the bottle after that, and losing at some other games. I somehow ended up kissing one of my sister's friends out the back garden at some stage. Fun times!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 426 ✭✭ddef


    Yeh I remember first time i got drunk.
    Jesus, look at my feet. i need to get shoes newly soon.
    wait, whats the question?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 31,947 ✭✭✭✭Mars Bar


    I was at my friends house warming party for college. I had a six pack bottle of Miller. He said his freezer was broken and just worked like a fridge so I put my bottles in the freezer. Went back and 4 bottles of Miller were frozen so I went and got two more from the offy whilst leaving the frozen four under the lamp to defrost. :rolleyes:
    I was drinking them before they defrosted. Bad idea people!


    2am and I was falling all over the shop, ended up just staying in the bathroom puking my guts up.

    Not fun. Not fun at all.

    Same here, was about 16, ever since I can't even get a whiff of bulmers without wanting to be sick :mad: I thought I was so cool swigging back the cider, keeping up with the lads and all that, musta looked even cooler puking for hours on end after.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,421 ✭✭✭major bill


    italia 90 must ave been only 3 went around sipping all the cans while everyone was stuck to the screens watching the peno shootout v romania. one of my earliest memorys and better memorys i would have loving to be older at the time of that world cup...

    no, i may have been quiet drunk at the time

    :confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,547 ✭✭✭Agricola


    First time i got properly drunk was on NYE. Was 16 and in the pub with me mates for the first time. Remember the swimming sensation, the inability to speak coherently, the complete collapse of motor functions! :D
    It felt like i had been hit by some kind of virus. Next morning I was delighted that I was more or less back to normal, bar a bástard of a hangover


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,943 ✭✭✭wonderfulname


    The first time i drank properly was a naggon of vodka at the underage disco aged 14..
    That may have made me a wee bit overconfident as the first time I got hammered was with a baby litre of whisky also aged 14, I never have and I never will have the ability to get so god awfully drunk again!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 642 ✭✭✭Contessa Raven


    Yup! I was 16 and had been babysitting for my cousin while she went out. On her return she had brought me back six pack of some sugary alcoholic sh**e!

    I ended up in the fireplace and fell up the stairs on my way to bed. Didn't puke. Woke up with the spinnies the next morning though! That wasn't nice.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,593 ✭✭✭Sea Sharp


    Ah yes, I was 13 on holidays in some god-forsaken spanish island. I had two bottles of budweiser and then I went into the pool. I then proceeded to p1ss everybody off by splashing them as I tried to 'swim'.

    Yup. On that alco-pop piss which was popular in the mid to late 90s.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,185 ✭✭✭tatabubbly


    I was properly properly, don't remember what i did last night drunk around 2 years ago, i was 20, in college, hadn't had dinner and drank 8 sambuca shots in a row


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 52 ✭✭lost in my own head


    Oh I don't think I'll ever forget it though it's hard to remember most of it. I've just finished my last leaving cert exam. I called into my grandmother on the way from school and she pulled out some home-made wine. (she was brilliant at making it, but should never be given as a first drink). I ended up having one glass, and could feel my head getting lighter and my legs getting weaker (you know when you get that warm feeling in your stomach). The next thing I remember is waking up on my bed with a huge headache and a strange feeling all over my body. Couldn't even look at drink for about a year and a half. Even remembering it now making me never want to drink again. LOL


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,228 ✭✭✭epgc3fyqirnbsx


    Have a very vague memory as I was only four or five and it was christmas. I sat under the table with a big glass of wine and got locked and couldn't walk right and the aul man carried me up to bed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 324 ✭✭nermal15


    It was only 2 weeks ago on my grad night. I *thought* I'd been drunk on my 18th birthday but oh how wrong I was. Vomit. Everywhere.

    5 years ago, was 14. Was hanging out the sunroof of a car, pissed, being driven by a drunken friend (around his driveway)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,103 ✭✭✭misslt


    I was 15 in the pub with my mammy. (I know).

    Was drinking smirnoff ice all night.

    Couldn't figure out what was wrong, why the room kept spinning.

    Started talking about my grandmother (she was dead about 10 years) when we got home I started to bawl my eyes out, thats when I realised I was fecked.

    Good craic tho :pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,305 ✭✭✭✭the_syco


    The question should be: do you want to remember the first time you were drunk?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,540 ✭✭✭Giselle


    I've never been drunk.


  • Registered Users Posts: 715 ✭✭✭_sparkie_


    it was my debs last year, what a great night.


  • Registered Users Posts: 550 ✭✭✭GirlOfGlass


    I was 15 and pissed on 1 litre of Fat Frog. :o


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,294 ✭✭✭rainbowdrop


    At a house party aged 12...... Someone's parents had gone away for the night, and left their 16yr old daughter and 14yr old son in charge of the house....... Bad Idea! :p They threw a house party, which ended up with the house being trashed by the 50-odd teenagers who turned up, and the police (this was in England) being called to disperse everyone. I got hammered on a bottle of Thunderbird AND got my first ever shift that night.... Result!

    My daughter is thirteen now, so I have to expect that she might arrive home drunk sometime in the near future...... And when she does, she'll be grounded til she's 21:D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,277 ✭✭✭evolutionqy7


    hmmma a shoulder of Smirnoff at the age of around 14-15 = flat on the by the shannon at around 2pm on a sunny summer day :) got carried home by two of my mates home cause couldn't walk or stand or sit :) ahhh the good times :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,305 ✭✭✭Chuchoter


    It must have been the end of first year, so 13, nearly 14. It was a pre summer exam thing. One girl decided to get mind-blowingly plastered and we rang the ambulance service in panic and the guy just got pissed at us and told us she was probably dead. Yes we shouldn't have been drunk, but talk about Mr.Unhelpful. We don't drink with her anymore. :P
    Other than that there was the daring everyone to kiss a girl a la katy perry. I'm now a lesbian, so I guess it was the girl who threw the party's fault:rolleyes::cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,928 ✭✭✭✭rainbow kirby


    It was the last night of my karate club's trip to Jersey and I was 15. Got really drunk on not very many Smirnoff Ices at all, and ended up dancing on a pool table.
