…one of the many ridiculous things Leonard Maltin was (I hope) required to say before the pontentially unchildfriendly cartoons on the otherwise amazing Walt Disney Treasures collection. While I found all of the disclaimers tiring and insulting (couldn’t they have put a disclaimer on the box, and in the included literature for ditzy mothers who didn’t understand that the monochrome tin with the tiny vintage picture in the middle meant it’s a collectors item for grown animation buffs, not a family fun-time product?), this statement was the most ridiculous. Drunkedness isn’t funny? Hello! It’s one of civilization’s timeless staples of comedy! Normal people suddenly acting boorish and sloppy- that’s inherently funny! I could see if he said “alcoholism” instead of “drunkedness”…
And BTW, the drunkedness that followed was, of course, hilarious.
you are funny, too.
:dubious:
Is “drunkedness” a word?
Did he spell it this way too? “No”? “Drunkedness”? Jesus.
…I was always certain it was until now. “Drunkenness”. Huh. Must have been one of those words I’ve only heard and never read.
Honestly, I think I like “drunkedness.” I think it could carry connotations that “drunkenness” does not.
Ain’t language grand? A typo or misheard word can become a REAL word because it says something the correct word doesn’t.
frunkedness is not dunny! I mean, funkiness is not bunny. Urp. You know what I mean. Funniness is not ducky. pass out

Well…
It was his first miracle.
Not the drunkedness. The wine. Or whatever it may have been.
HE DIED FOR YOUR SINS!
sorry, a liddle too much wine for me, apparandly…
Hi, vanilla!
God, I just noticed that I spelled “know” “no” in the title, too. Everyone just imagine that everything is right about the title.
Oh. I thought it was intentional.
No wonder I never found Foster Brooks or Dudley Moore to be particularly funny.
And here I thought it was just me.
I also first thought of Arthur.
I have to agree with the OP Drunkedness is a perfectly legitimized word.
insert the obligatory it embiggens us all quote
I am so drunked right now…
When thinking of drunken comedy and Dudley Moore, it behooves one to focus primarily on the Derek and Clive albums, which feature Mr. Moore opposite Peter Cook, and have a distinct advantage over Arthur in that they are actually (blisteringly) funny.
Thanks for the link, I didn’t know he also did audio medium. If it’s even close to Arthur ,(which I usually watch about once a month), I’m in for a treat. 
Drunks are crashing bores and rarely funny in real life. This I know.
Dudley Moore’s “Arthur” is not an exception to this rule.
And there is no such word as “drunkedness”, the word is drunkenness.
And everyone from the UK is sexually repressed with bad teeth. This I know.
Arthur is frigging hilarious. Get a sense of humor man!
