    I'd very very rarely just have a few beers, normally having a few leads to having a lot and then that in turn leads to me getting locked. I think i've been drunk since Friday too, i really really want to go to bed.

    some losers would disagree

    I don't drink, but I enjoy seeing others getting drunk. You lose respect for those who can't handle it.

    Drink on, drinkers.

    Drink to get drunk/tipsy. Get pissed to regret things.

    When I drink I do so because I actually like the taste. Whilst it's nice to lose the head a bit I can do with out the full on drunkeness and next-day hangover tbh.

    Its half assing things that got the country in its current state


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,758 ✭✭✭✭TeddyTedson


    I dont really drink to get locked but I always do it. Every weekend I drink its full of blackouts which everyone probably gets in Ireland. But in other countries they would think im an alcoholic???


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 22,058 ✭✭✭✭Abi


    I wouldn't drink to get drunk, it just ruins your night imo. I don't see the attraction of falling around the place / puking your ring up and not remembering your night.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,324 ✭✭✭Alter-Ego


    I used to enjoy a few beers at home and go to bed, but that was when I had a job.

    Now that I'm on the dole, I do shag all, all day long and if I start drinking I just want to keep on drinking out of boredom and lack of tiredness from doing nothing.

    Last time I went out with friends we didn't stop drinking 'til 10am. Started at 8pm.

    I think I may need to lay off the sauce. I won't, but I think I may need to.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 81,220 ✭✭✭✭biko


    It's like eating but stopping before you're full.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,758 ✭✭✭✭TeddyTedson


    We're all alcos and have a problem. we'll never sort it out though, lets be honest about that. thats why the old people in this country are nuts often, drink has ****ed their heads up. yes this is true..

    Depends on the occasion, right? Drinking with college friends, I see it as a waste of money if I don't get locked (but then I don't get v bad hangover or don't usually get sick). But on a family occassion or just watching the match or something then a nice vodka n cranberry juice or something along those lines can just taste nice and i'll have 2 or 3, no more.:cool:

    sounds like you need to learn to handle your drink :D

    Define locked?

    If you're talking face down in a puddle of puke, having pissed yourself, well no.

    In fact, what's wrong with having a beer or two, or a glass of wine without having to finish the bottle?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,572 ✭✭✭✭brummytom

    Definitely. Why drink one or two pints? You might as well just drink milk

    It is sad that there are actually people in Ireland who think like that.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,615 ✭✭✭Hail 2 Da Thief


    Sometimes it's nice to have 2 or 3 pints & leave it at that!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,528 ✭✭✭jubella


    I suppose it depends whether you particularly like the taste of the drink or not.. I wouldn't be mad about the taste of most alcoholic drinks, so I generally wouldn't drink it for any other reason than to get drunk.


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


    I go out to have the craic, drinking as I do so. If I get drunk its a side effect, its not the goal.


    However, a few mates end up downing naggins and stuff in order to get hammered, and tbh it sucks being the only sober person, people are retards when they are drunk, unless you are too

    I agree with you 100%.

    Saying "ah I'll have a few pints and end up drunk" is one thing. But when your goal is to get drunk before the night is even halfway over there's no point in going out at all; you're just wasting money.

    I don't drink to get drunk but I also wouldn't just have one or two pints. If I was only able to have one pint I'd much prefer to have a glass of orange juice or a coke. Likewise I'd never have a glass of wine with dinner, I'll just stick to water. If I do drink it would usually be 4 cans of beer minimum, anything lower than that and I'd much rather stay sober and be able to drive home.

    Are you surprised? :confused:

    ...I'll assume that you're a tourist ;)

    This.

    Yes, if I'm drinking, I may end up drunk, but getting drunk is the adventure but not the destination.

    Yes, I might (actually not even might, would) have shots, beers, spirits, what have you, but just drinking to get abso wankered, no thanks. I'm not 16.

    i go out for the craic, for the friends i meet and the women, Drink helps with me because i can be very shy sober, getting drunk can provide brilliant memories and start friendships, thats why i get drunk.
    theres no point getting a little drunk, if your going to get drunk then go on a 'mad one' if not then stay sober and be able to drive


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 383 ✭✭HUNK


    Sure one time I drank 20 cans and I was grand!


















    although it was over a period of 3 days, and I had a few glasses of water between every 3 pints or so. I had also had plenty to eat and got plenty of rest during that time. It was also only 4% carling beer. I had also given away a few ends to a few of my mates and also gave away 1 or 2 cans to a couple of people who were a few short. Not to mention that I broke the seal after my second beer and frequented the bathroom every 20 minutes.

    But lol disregard all that, 20 cans I'm deadly!

    Something doesn't have to surprising to be extremely sad or pathetic.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 81 ✭✭galwegians


    you should probably go and see a alcohol counselor before it gets to far out of hand,

    good luck.


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


    It's sunday evening and I'm having pizza and watching Top Gear whilst drinking some Tiger beers. I won't get drunk but I probably wont feel this relaxed all week.

    Bottles of beer or a glass of wine are fantastic for just chilling out and relaxing, getting drunk often ruins that
