    I understand people like to have a good time. And my good time may not be lik other peoples.

    But those who post this stuff on social media.

    For instance men taking pictures of other men in the gents?

    Or pics of men and women drunk?

    Nominations?

    DO they realize how unattractive this makes them seem to everyone else?

    They just come across as knobs.

    And people who post pics of their ...well their bits???


    Drunk antics do not make you seem cool they make you seem like a child.

    How exactly am I supposed to fap to any of that, op?

    No, they don't realize, mainly because they're drunk. Try not to be so self-righteous, I'm sure you've be drunk at some point.

    Drunken antics are funny when you're drunk, they just speed up the dreaded flashbacks whilst sober.

    I think you need to change your circle of friends OP.

    I have never seen pics of any of my male friends bits or pics of them in the jacks on any social media sites.

    Because when anything bad that happens due to Idiocy can then be blamed on social media/Internet.....


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,526 ✭✭✭Slicemeister


    OP's horse appears to be slurping from the slops tray.

    Drunkenness on my behalf was often my route to sexy time .Sober sex was a rare commodity for me , kinda like drinkin' tae out of a cup or ordering a half pint of Guinness with a little umbrella thingy in it.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,179 ✭✭✭hfallada


    I think one of the most unattractive things in a person is someone a bit fond of the drink, even if its just on a night out. There is nothing more unappealing that a guy/girl barely able to stand, slurring his/her speech.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 792 ✭✭✭Ziegfeldgirl27


    The unattractive drunken antics of others is the reason I do not drink at all. I have never been drunk in my life.

    I just think it's absolutely disgusting especially women not being fit to bite their finger. Men turn into slabbering fools.

    I will never forget being out one night, and queuing up to collect my coat from the cloakroom. There was a man standing next to me and he just stood there puking on the spot. The puke was splashing everywhere. It was the most disgusting thing I have ever seen. How do people think this is acceptable behaviour. Some poor cratur had to clean that up. Nobody should have to do that.

    I don't care.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 18,299 ✭✭✭✭The Backwards Man


    Some people just shouldn't drink. Unfortunately these are normally the people that drink most.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,798 ✭✭✭✭hatrickpatrick


    Speak for yourself OP. I for one find them very attractive.

    I remember in my younger days I thought going out and getting drunk was great. I would get so bad I would fall about the place. I remember once coming home and I suffered for days on the couch with a hangover. I woke my mam up that night and she told me that the dog didn't recognise me and was terrified. I learned a lesson that going out boozing and getting drunk is not great and it's not fun. This lesson came at a time when responsibilty came into my life. I learned that drunk is not a good way to unwind after a long week in work. You can do so much and also have fun without alcohol. Now days I much prefer going for a meal and there's loads of things that I would like to do if the finances allowed it like a trip to the zoo or cinema or others. On the rare occasion that I do drink, I know where my limits lie and by god do I stick to it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,807 ✭✭✭Custardpi


    Yeah I've had similar experiences. Had a few "black outs" when I was younger. Eventually I learnt where my limits were & these days I generally stick to them. Learning one's limitations is all part of growing up I guess. For some people it takes a lot longer than others.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,746 ✭✭✭Flippyfloppy


    Have to say I cringe when I see those 'smokey' kind of photos of people in house parties with stack of empty cans and stubbed out cigarette butts spilling out over ashtrays. Why you putting that on social media mang


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,681 ✭✭✭bodice ripper


    Op is missing the point.

    No one drinks because they think it makes them attractive, they drink to make other people attractive...

    It is really unattractive and I cringe thinking back on how drunk I used to get.

    But they're not doing it to be attractive. Who cares what other people think of them? They obviously don't. They're enjoying themselves. Ye know? Joy!

    This isn't classed as the life lesson you make it out be in your post. So glad I drink after reading that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,223 ✭✭✭orangesoda


    I recall people on my facebook went on a holiday after leaving school and there were photos of them in the nip lying drunk in the bathroom/bedroom

    If the worst thing about you boozing was the dog not recognizing you ( maybe it was bit pished itself, bitta the uisce beatha perhaps) then I'd hate to see how you dealt with the real fear.

    It's a vicious cycle OP. Embarrass yourself with drunken antics. Drink loads more the following night to forget how much of an embarrassing scourge you were before.

    Where'd I put my drink?!?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,059 ✭✭✭WilyCoyote


    If you think that drunken antics are not funny it means that you're not drinking enough or you didn't pull


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,028 ✭✭✭✭--LOS--


    ehhh are your friends all teenagers OP?

    This made me giggle.

    But in all seriousness, I totally agree. I do/enjoy so much more now that I've stopped going out and getting hammered like I used to in my late teens/early twenties.

    Some of the funniest things I've done, heard, seen have been while drunk. I get the vague attitude that people think they're above others when they give out about how disgusting drink and being drunk is. Drink is a fine thing. I drink to get loose and enjoy myself. Just know what you're drinking and how much you can have of it. If you do get black out drunk.....so what! Have you ever eaten too much or indulged on something a bit too much. It happens sometimes as long as it isn't all the time then so be it. As for the social media thing of putting up the drunk antics that is too far at times. Just people embarrassing their friends online. Then again most of social media is a self glorification.

    Yep, have seen a girl passed out in a club with her feet on her own sick. Nobody seemed too bothered about her, and someone came along and de-sicked the floor with a pan and brush. Diabolical.
