Was tippin' home last night, when I came across a couple of lads who had obviously been playing petrol bingo. They had run out of juice about a hundred yards from home.One was half-in half-out of the car, trying to steer while the other lad was pushing.

I downed tools (6 cans

) and gave them a hand pushing the car home.

I woke up this morning and it got me wondering. Had I not have had a couple of ales on board, would I have bothered stopping to lend a hand?

I'd like to think I would have, but honestly, I couldn't be sure.

So AHers, as the thread title asks, are you a better or worse person when you're drunk?

Depends.

I get very generous when I'm drunk and start buying people drinks, giving away my cigs like they were sweets and compliment everyone on anything.

You downed 6 cans, as in necked them one after another?

Just as well you were coming from Tesco with the weeks shopping, imagine the dump you'd have to be taking around now.

I'm not very pleasant company, worse when I'm drunk

Babybuff · 28-04-2012, 19:24

no, not really. One or two is enough after that it's car crash time. Not so bad if I have a smoke though I prefer mellow to loud and noisy which is how I get when I'm drunk.

Temptamperu · 28-04-2012, 19:24

nah, i am much nicer sober.

MadYaker · 28-04-2012, 19:24

Depends on how drunk I am. But tbh if they asked me for help and I was hammered I would probably lean against the car, get sick, fall over and pass out on the ground.

i'm better up to a point, then things go downhill. . .we don't go to that point anymore

wivy · 28-04-2012, 19:26

Will always help those in need when I'm drunk doesn't matter who they are.
Guilty of looking for a bit of divilment when I'm drunk though!
