    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

    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!

    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.

    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.

    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

    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

    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.

    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:

    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, Registered Users 2 Posts: 715 ✭✭✭_sparkie_


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


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 550 ✭✭✭GirlOfGlass


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

    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

    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:

    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.

    First time drinking, I was on a roof of a hotel in france and I had like 9 over poured shots of vodka straight. I was away with a youth group and we all got caught the second night! :D THere is a catch phrase that is now associated with me because of that night...I feel Greaaat! :D Was an epic trip. I was 17.

    First time I was proper buckled was on both my 18th and 10 days after my 18th the night I finished school bar my leaving cert.

    On my 18th I was pissed but still went clubbing and stayed drinking for 3 days straight.

    10 days after I was PISSED, beyond the ability to make good decisions! :D I can still remmebr some of the ngith, but that was the first time I got sick while drinking! :D Definitely not the last! haha

    I really do love drinking though, it's fantastic.

    alco? :D:D:D:D

    I was 16, it was Halloween 1986 and I drank a whole 2-litre flaggen (wtf is a flaggen anyway? I've never figured that out) of cider in The Field Inn.

    Shifted several randomers (all female thankfully), threw up, slept it off.

    These days the same amount of alcohol would just induce a mild-buzz.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,650 ✭✭✭✭minidazzler


    alco? :D:D:D:D

    Excuse me now, I am not an alco, I'm a drunkard, alcoholics go to meetings just like me, except my meetings are held in bars where we accept that we are powerless over alcohol, and quite happy to be. :D

    when i was about 15 with a friend in his house in the countryside. Stole his mothers bottle of vodka. between the two of us drunk the whole lot. can clearly remember listening to Tina Turner 'Goldeneye' thinking it was the greatest piece of art ever put to cd. Then can remember lying outside beside the road with my friend laughing like a monkey at people walking by on their evening walk. (was bout 7 in the evening).....spent the next ten years trying to recapture that evening


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,432 ✭✭✭df1985

    I remember the process of getting drunk yes....
    and then. . nada.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 115 ✭✭Bagmagnet


    I was either 15 or 16... I had about 6 cans of Strongbow cider in a field. Never felt anything like it before. I thought I could understand why some people spent all their time drinking.. This was before the hangovers became as immense as they are now.

    Stuck with cider for awhile, but it started to destroy my stomach every time I indulged in it. It still runs right through me. I think cider is a drink that only young guts can process.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,847 ✭✭✭HavingCrack


    Got served 24 cans of Bulmers when I was 16 :D

    Went back to my mates gaf and had 6 of them in the back garden follwoed by shots of rum-scorcher of a day!

    And didn't got caught ;)

    Ahhhhh if only all my drinking sessions were as memorable as that one!

    First time I got drunk was when I just turned 18 and was out, my brother got me drunk, messy night. Though it ended abruptly when some girl spilled drink all over me and a bouncer made me leave because they thought I'd wet myself. :rolleyes:

    Didn't touch drink again until I was 21, on a trip to London with my course in college. One very messy night, ended with me crying underneath the bunk bed in the hostel, me telling another girl to ' F*** OFF! ' when she tried to comfort me in this state and the cops being called on us trying to evict us.

    The next morning was the first time I had a hangover as well. Ugh, thought I was going to get sick on the tube on the way to the airport. Thankfully, I didn't.
