It is 2 o’clock in the morning where I am. If it were up to me, I’d still be out drinking. But here I am, sitting at my computer, kinda toasted. Hubby and I came in and he laid down and went straight to sleep. Me, I would have liked to dance and drink some more. So people, should you post drunk? Or do you invariably make a fool of yourself? ---

I think you’re doing just fine. As long as you can type and you’re coherent I see nothing wrong with posting drunk. If you were a stupid drunk then I’d send you to bed, but you seem alright. Kitty ---

Actually, I just got back in town and am quite ripped myself. Perusing the boards for anything new. I see nothing wrong with posting toasted. The problem is reading your posts the next day. They usually make no sense and seem to ramble. At least that’t the case for some of mine. Tommorrow around noon do a search for your username and you might be surprised at what you’ve written. I’ve come accross a few surprises the next day myself. I’m toasting to posting drunk right now! ::Shhrhshhrwhhsh:: ---

I don’t think there is a legal limit on alcohol levels while posting, so go right ahead and have another. HMMM, with all this talk about toast, I’m getting hungry. ---

Im palstered as well, thats right palstered. Damn that Everclear. However, In My Opinion , be it as it may alcohol allowss me to communicate with a certain honesty which I can’t seem to achieve whilst sober. I feel that inebriation should not be a factor unless certain members who shall remain nameless begin to post absurd topics and blemish the integrity of this message board AA is for quitters ---

Don’t listen to FPK- Coherency has _never_ been a pre-requisite for posting in this forum. 🙂 ---

Everclear my ass **tennents**. How many shots have you actually done? My guess is zero. I ask because you seem to purposely have misspelled plastered. Anyone who has actually drank everclear wouldn’t have caught that. And they wouldn’t make a point out of it in the next sentence. Not to be mean, but I have a feeling you’ve had a couple beers and maybe a shot and are so giddy with excitement your acting drunk and probably pretty sober. Come on… Drink that straight up shot of everclear! ---

I just think it’s a sad state of affairs when a relatively young, not horribly deformed woman is forced to spend Saturday night posting on a message board when all she wants to do is have some fun! It’s a shame that here it is, 3:30am and I’m sobering up (just can’t bring myself to drink alone). ---

I’ve posted drunk. I think I killed the ‘bagel or chewy donut’ thread that way. If that’s the cost of PWI, I’m gonna stay sober on the boards. PWI… pee-wee… oh God. ---

Hahaha, thats funny, not. I wouldnt drink everclear straight, i really cant stand to take any hard liquor straight, too many bad experiances as a result of it. Me and my pals spent last night playing street hockey, i had a 6-pac of lager, after that was gone and we had finnished for the night i really didnt have much else to drink but my everclear, so after a everclear and cokes at the end of an evening of moderate drinking it hits you prety hard ---

I have a tendency to ramble when I’m sober so I fear what would happen if I ever tried to post after a few. Since I rarely drink the opportunities are few and far between anyways. ---

I dunno… I thought half the posts on here were from someone that was either ripped or stoned. I would think that would make doing it ok… ---

The first time I posted in GD I’d had a few. I don’t post drunk too often. I have better things to do with my time. Like chat. 😃 Oh boy, is that fun! ---
