    was out last nite in a club - we were sitting by the dance floor and had our drinks resting on a long table and as i was chatting away a guy the other side of us on the dance floor was taking the drinks and gulping them back - i took hold of the drinks my mates at first thought i was taking the perverbial on them taking the drinks but when i pointed out the bloke - we were quite amused by his audacity really - we didnt say anything to him cause it was almost funny - suppose we felt kinda sorry for him - for me i never finish a pint i know thats a bad habit but basically he was taking my ends and filling them up till he got a full pint and necking them back - then another friend was drinking bacardi breezers and the bits left in hers bottle necked back - he was absolutely obliterated on the drink but he kept going - i got an iced water for myself as i had had a few at this stage - he even grabbed at that my boyfriend had to grab my glass back -

    anyone who left the drink down it was gone - he was lucky not to have someone have a word or two be it by fist or mouth - though he was p1ssed out of his skull maybe they felt sorry for him too

    is this a new way of beating the recession go around nicking peoples ends - what a way to do it - id rather stay at home than to do that

    Finishing a pint is a bad habit?
    Since when?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,054 ✭✭✭✭Professey Chin

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 21,191 ✭✭✭✭Latchy


    It is commonly known as Minesweeping but annoying when it's an unfinished drink .Very unhygienic to .

    Stay out of nightclubs that attract students. Problem solved.

    I always do it when I'm drunk even though I actually think it's fairly disgusting

    Think you have your answer there - he was drunk and just wanted more drink

    Years ago, a mate of mine, whilst well pished polished off a pint in a niteclub & promptly puked it up back into the glass.

    That was quite normal for him & we didn't bat an eyelid, till a Skank sidled up to the glass & sipped on it all the rest of the night whilst looking at the young wans on the dance floor.:eek::eek::eek:

    Shoulda pissed in a glass & left it down
    I done that a few months ago. I got a pint in me local and two minutes later they called last orders. I got me usual 4 pints. Left em on table and went out for a smoke. Came back in a me lack told me some woman sitting near us took one of me pints and tried to take another one but the lack grabbed it off her. I finished a good bit of me next pint and went out to the jacks and filled up the pint glass with me piss. I left a little beer in it so it would still have a head. Put it back on table and told me mates father to keep an eye on me pint of piss. I told him me one already took one of my pints. Off meself and the lack go for another smoke. When I came back in my mates father had tears in his eyes from the laughing. He told me she took a big mouthful outta it. Made a funny face , swallowed and left the pint back down. Twas great.

    i do agree that its a pretty disguisting habit but i seem to end up doing it at the end of most night when ive run out of money, its a choice between that and chatting up some poor bloke to get free drinks which i just dont agree with

    Id never take a drink off someone, i take the unattended ones which i suppose is a bit more dangerous but i wouldnt want to risk getting into a fight

    i still dont think its a "new" thing pint robbing has existed since nightclubs existed:rolleyes:

    This isn't a new thing yerman was just **** at it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,898 ✭✭✭✭seanybiker


    people who do it are really annoying. I notice a lot of women do it when their drunk and in their annoying moods. Hopefully some day they will either get a pint of piss or a spiked drink. Thiefs .

    years ago, i drank in a certain wexford st establishment, that didnt have a smoking area, so you had to leave your drink on top of the cig machine while you went out to smoke. I was drinking bottled beer at the time and got real pissed of to find my drink gone (lifted) on several occasions, after returning from having a smoke.

    I decided that revenge was a drink that was best served 'luke warm',so I took an empty bottle to the gents, pissed it almost full, left the gents, and went out for a smoke, leaving my urine sample on top of the cig machine on the way out..

    to my utter delight, this smart bastard wanders over to the machine with his mate, lifted the bottle and slinked away to the corner, grinning, but not for very long.

    it very nearly came back at me,because I almost pissed myself laughing at his facial expression when the penny dropped. :)

    i seen several girls doing this....


    if it was a guy id break him up, i don't mean to be all agro but you never touch another man/womens drink, even if its only a dribble left in it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,388 ✭✭✭Kernel


    It's not a new thing, it's as old as the hills. Well as old as nightclubs. Drink in a more reputable establishment and you wont have guttersnipes around you.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,159 ✭✭✭✭phasers

    This post really annoys me. When you run out of money, get a water or go home.

    You'd never take a drink off someone?? How nice. Very good of you to take unattended drinks only.

    It doesn't matter if its been going on for a thousand years, its just not on. :rolleyes:

    So bring out more money? Do you also go picking at peoples food on unattended plates in restaurants?

    I have seen pint covers in pubs now for when people go out smoking.

    ive never actually seen it happen but ive heard of it before.

    its disgusting, trashy & cheap, not to mention dangerous. a mouthfull of p*ss could be the least of your worries if its spiked with something else.

    No one should be that desperate for a drink no matter how tight their budget is.
