“turdug” should be “turgid”. And no, the only thing I’m drinking right now is coffee, thank you. :o

Not only drunk… I occasionally post when (gawsp) sober.

Only rarely do I post while drunk although I do sometimes read while drunk. I can put together coherent enough thoughts but typing them out is a bitch.

The bad thing I do online while drunk sometimes is play poker. I know it’s a terrible idea, and I never mean to, but somehow it just…_happens_. Fortunately I am able to keep myself in the very low limits so I’ve never done myself too much damage. Every once in a while I end up ahead, sometimes by a significant amount compared to the level.

Thanks! but I must admit I got some of it from a few [Medium Large](http://www.drinkatwork.com/mediumlarge.html) strips. I can’t remember which ones, though.

Posting while drunk isn’t so bad. But whatever you do, stay away from eBay while drunk.

Post no. My wife on the other hand. To begin with my wife dosen’t drink much at all. This weekend her roommate was having a small party, and bought some vodka. My wife asked to try some, and ended up so drunk she could barley stand up. She then decided it would be fun to play Everquest2. Her guild in EQ2 uses Teamspeak to communicate. She kept telling everyone about how someone had put alcohol in her vodka. Wouldn’t quit talking about it. She will be teased about this for awhile.

Many, many times. I also often write out long, convoluted, and incredibly hilarious responses, then re-read them and realize how unfunny they are. I don’t post those.
