Have you ever been really inappropriately drunk?

    I'm not talking about being totally wasted or quantity of drink taken, i'm taking about time and situation wise here. For example, for my 20th birthday i was out in Dublin, then me and a mate had a litre of vodka on the Luas before getting a taxi home to where we'd stashed some cans. it must've been about 8.15 am at this stage, and we were still drinking heavily. anyway, we wandered down to the shops to get some munch, and we ran into our 6th class primary school teacher on his way to work. He started chatting to us and we were holding it down pretty well, telling him we were on our way to college and it was a lovely morning etc. Then he asked my mate what he does in college, and he couldn't hold it together anymore, he started laughing and says 'I gets on trains and gets off trains in college' (wtf?) and at the same a can of beer fell out of his pocket and burst on the ground, in the middle of the morning hustle and bustle. I've never felt so ashamed or embarrassed at being drunk in my life, everyone staring at us and the teacher was mortified as well.
    So, anyone got any similar stories when you shouldn't have been, but were drunk? school, mass etc. There must be some good ones!

    Used to be drunk in work nearly every Friday evening for about a year or two. Worked in a fairly bug hardware store Friday nights (6-9/10), Sat and Sunday. So for the first two years in college we would finish at like 11 or 12 and go straight to the pub, leave the pub at around four and head straight to work. Ah good times, people used to enjoy working with "drunk al". One time two of us actually spend pretty much the whole Friday in the pub and ended up headed to work a bit early because we want to say goodbye to someone who was leaving, by the time we got there they had already left, but the manager came over trying to get us to start work early. We were like eh no we have to get dinner first, so off we went to the pub for a few more double vodkas, ended up being late and drunk that evening.

    Apart from work I don’t really think so, I have been obviously hung-over at some inappropriate times like job interviews, mass, family things etc.

    For my 20th birthday the girls I was in college with took me to Captain Americas for a long lunch. i had a lot of cocktails and went back to college extremely píssed. Unfortunately I actually had a microbiology lab that was mandatory. We were using some pretty strong bacteria so we all had to wear masks. I was trollied and kept giggling and poking my fingers in petrie dishes and stumbling in to people while they did complex procedures and ruining it for them. i couldn't really stand up straight either! My friend had to do my lab for me.... i think I did quiet well in it actually!

    hahaha, that's exactly the kind of thing i'm talking bout. I was hammered in a tutorial on Joyce before, she kept asking me questions and i kept slurring my words, had to say i had a terrible cold. :D
    That sounds like the sweetest job ever alanmurphy, did you's not get sussed at all though? I was working in a guesthouse in town watching the world cup and drinking a can of DutchGold and a real normal looking guy called to the door and flashed a detective's badge. He was asking questions about that guy who was beaten to death outside Abrakabra on O'Connell street last year and was asking questions about where the cameras faced and stuff. He was really sound and funny but it still felt inappropraite to slurping a can of dutch gold while talking about some guy being murdered.

    Yeah everyone knew but there was a stocktake going on so they couldn't afford to send us home that night, therefore the couldn't give out to us either, even though we could barely count. As for every other Friday yeah they the managers knew we even decided to tell them at the Christmas party that we do it. But I started there when I was 15 so by the time I was in college I was pretty much untouchable. Wish I could do that again, not the job, but the working drunk thing.

    To this day, I just cannot remember my wedding ceremony. Some people in the church who didn't know me, thought some disabled person was getting hitched, me being helped down the aisle by the best man and another pal.

    Yes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 848 ✭✭✭armour87


    Absolutely.

    About half the time I drink.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 24,369 ✭✭✭✭ejmaztec


    I wasn't nervous at all. Someone accused someone else of spiking drinks but nobody ever got to the truth of the matter. Surprisingly enough, I'm still married to the same woman and she occasionally still speaks to me. It was most of the wedding guests who've since divorced over the years since.

    Some people are just gluttons for punishment.

    Being out on the driving range in Knocknacarra (random drunken urge) with a couple friends, up all night playing poker, still locked, about to puke any moment, missing the ball every now and then only to *walk out on the range* to get the ones that went astray... was pretty fun actually :D

    And, while working on an EU project, abroad in Slovakia in a conference meeting, locked as an ass (not obviously, I kept quiet until the dinner in the evening), perpetuating the Irish stereotype of the ginger drunken Lepreachán. Still have the photos of me, my colleague and his brother stealing the banner sign and bottles of wine from the conference venue!

    Other than that, not really, apart from being locked in work, and nobody seemed to notice...


  • Posts: 6,045 ✭✭✭ [Deleted User]


    Slightly different, but here goes....

    In a friends house when his parents went away for the night, got locked and wasted, when one of the lads says he has a load of acid. Seeing as he has a free gaff, we all decide we'll get 1 or 2 into us.

    His parents come home at 6.00am instead of pm as he'd expected so we all hastily make an exit and I realise I'm too fncked to go anywhere near home. We decide to go knacker drinking near an old, disused church type place that's well off the beaten path.

    Long story short, we run out of cans, I send one of the lads to the bank with my ATM card 'cos i'm still too out of it to face any 'normal' people, he forgets the number, tries it 3 times anyway and gets the card swallowed.

    I then have to queue up for the customer service desk in a bank at about 10.15am to ask for it back. It was like i was looking at your woman through a kaleidoscope.

    Surprisingly, I held it together, explaining i was a little tipsy last night and could i get it back.

    She said certainly "sir, can i have your name please?"

    Me:. ".......................................................................................................$hifty!!" (phew].

    meeting a bunch of boardsies for the first time, i may have overdone the dutch courage to meet the new people... i can hardly remember the night at all, i did end up crying muchly, wandering from path to road, getting to second pub, SOMEHOW being allowed in, and kinda sitting in a corner on the floor and telling them to **** off when tehy tried being nice to me.

    rather embarrassing the next day.

    When I worked in an Irish bar over in Germany we were more or less given free reign, within reason, it wasn't unheard of for myself and the other staff members to have quite a few beers and numerous shots during the course of a night behind the bar. We even invented our own concoction: TVR's tequila, vodka and red bulls.

    Usually in Germany when the deutschlanders come into the pub they expect you to go over to the table, give them the menus, wait the half hour it takes for them to decide what to have and then take their order. Which was normally a ginger ale (cheapest item on the menu) between 8 or 9 of them. So at about 2 o'c one night, still a few hours before closing, myself and one of my colleagues behind the bar watched as a typical group of Germans strolled in. We were already pretty pwned from a few of the aforementioned TVR's so we decided to wait and see how long the Germans would wait until approaching the bar. 20 minutes go by as they browse the menu, a further 15 while they look around for some service and then they launch themselves out of their chairs and stormtroop out of the place, with me and John cacking ourselves.

    That sort of the thing was a regular occurence, but apart from that I've woken up in other peoples garages without shoes or a jacket, have had my stomach pumped, woke up in hospital (I think the Germans are still looking for a 300 quid fee for my ambulance ride), been sacked from that job in Germany for being unconcious behind the bar (absinthe is the devils drink) and been arrested and taken to court for drunk and disorderly. Thankfully the gard didn't show for that so I got off scott free. You would think I'd have learnt my lesson after all that excitement and to a certain extent I have, but am still partial to a Jamey every now and then.

    Yeah I had one too many in the college bar one afternoon and then went off to a Communications lecture. A mate of mine sitting in the row behind me asked a question which I thought the answer to was fairly obvious. The lecturer gave him the answer in a tone of voice that seemed to say 'I cant believe you didnt know that' sort of way. So he had his back turned to the whiteboard then and I stood up and pointed at my mate and shouted "Hah, bet you feel stupid now Stevie" really loud. I sat back down before the lecturer could turn around and he never knew who it was. Everyone laughed.

    I tend to be brutally honest when I'm drunk, so I would be classed as inapropriately drunk every time I get drunk.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,129 ✭✭✭Nightwish


    Yes. 2nd year of college I drank a naggin of vodka straight at my house in Finglas then sang "Another one bites the dust" at the top of my voice on the 40A into town and fell off the bus at Whitworth road. By the time I reached Quinns I was in tears as I didnt like my socks and I fell over and had to be bundled into a taxi back home. I vomited all over myself at home and my (male) housemate had to undress me, and put me into my pyjamas and into bed. Highly inappropriate stuff.

    Few of the uncles who were in the reserves back in the days of the fca (now RDF by the way) managed to turn up at range practise once, still in a state from the night before.

    Dangerous dangerous combination of alcohol still very much in the system and handling loaded rifles. Not safe. According to them the Sgt. knew full well but they had to fire anyway (was close to a shooting event etc).

    I'm not condoning this it 'in the least' and I'm aware that the organisation has a bad enough name from this carry-on in the past. But had to be shared.
    Obviously naming units or even the county for that matter would be stupid - so don't bother hassling me.
