As duffman would say "OH YEAH!!!!!!!" I miss the drunk thread. why did we ever get rid of it? too much server space? too many people getting drunk? maybe we just need the drunk server!!! ha. man. . . i should start naming computers by drink names. right now my computer names are named by kitchen appliances. such as microwave or blender. i think they should be named rum or vodka. . . wow, what a drunken epiphany!!!!
I'm reallyb ****ied up right now, I don't know if I'll r5emwember this i8n the morning, but I'm at a party here in Santa Cruz mingling with all theseb hot girls, and I'm really wasted, and I've been wanting to post a genuine drunk post for awhiloe so here it is,

Good times... sort of. Except for the boyfriend making lewd and obscene comments when there are tons of people I'd rahter just 'slip' by instead of causing a scene in front of. 
Including a past high school teacher. Sigh.
:edit: See? I can type rather coherently... at least I think so right now. We'll see in the morning.

Unless something else comes up before the 31st, I nominate this for the 2005 vniow Post Of the Year Award.
So, when I'm drunk, things just seem so overtly beautiful. I'm not trashed, mind you -- just sorta floaty, so to speak. But, yeah. When I'm drunk, I feel like I just sense beauty so deeply, you know?
Up until I was 24, I was going to be a poet. I was going to change the world with poetry. I went to grad school, I spent two years reading and writing (I didn't read everything, but I read enough to know I hate Rita Dove and love Lee Ann Brown, I hate Billy Collins and love Charles Reznikoff). I wrote a book (it was terrible). I have since written a second, slightly more terrible book. Then I finished grad school and moved in with the woman. I supported her through grad school. Since poetry didn't pay the bills, I started teaching. I ITed part time to help pay the bills. And do you know what the management jerks said to me the other day at work? "25% of the students who graduate from our school -- that's 25% of the students you teach -- will be incarcerated." It broke my heart. I work so hard for these kids. I mean, they're bright, their family situations are real, you know? I decided long ago that teaching is about feeling your failures, not feeling the "rewards" of your successes (I hate people who say teaching is rewarding), but god. What am I doing if I'm working this hard and these kids are still winding up in jail, you know?
But on the up side (I'm not being dismissive, I'm being repressive), after I got home tonight (the JTE (pseudonymous) and I perhaps had a few too many during the Patriots game) there was this Alleve ad on TV. All these elderly people kept falling up the stairs or suffering crippling pain while playing poker or wearing sweaters around their necks in pain and all I could do was laugh so hard because it was all so staged and yes, so beautiful that there was this real gray hair and real, staged pain. This theater of the body in pain.
I read this post from mymemory and almost cried because it's real -- it's heartfelt and it's beautiful.
There's coffee, there's alcohol, there's cigarettes, there's love -- I started painting and realized Mark Rothko really's done everything I want to do, though I almost cry everytime I look at something by Michael Brodeur ...

to get out of bed
and drink too much coffee
and smoke too many cigarettes
and love you so much."

Thanks, anyway, to the MR regulars for being so real, so honest, so moody, so angry, so insistent and so funny. You maintain me at least as much as Ella in Rome does, and that's saying something more than a Thank You thread could.
I wonder if I've said too much or absolutely nothing at all?

Clay is drunk. (You know Clay's drunk because he's referring to himself in the third person and he had to backspace several times while typing this post... including while typing the word "backspace".)
Guess that's what happens when you don't drink anything for like a month and then have three vodka-and-cranberries.

Confess!
I have a confession to make...
Last Saturday was Carnival Ball (a Mardi Gras thing) and I went to an after party where there was LARGE amounts of alcohol.
Anyways, I had a few too many strong concoctions and was easily led to participate in a couple FULL body shots. No shot glasses here. I didn't know who the girl was until a few hours later, I'm regretting what I did, and I have promised myself not to drink anything until Feb. 28th.

My 21st is Saturday, and I'm going with a bunch of friends to a local brew house. I intend on drinking (almost) everything that's put in front of me.

For your sake and your enjoyment, I suggest:
Show some moderation early in the evening, and get someting to eat.
Avoid mixing a bunch of differnet alcohols, leads to a nasty hangover.
Smile a lot.
Sing.
HAppy Birshday MAn !
How is that people post in this thread??? Where do you guys drink that you have access to macrumors, and more importantly why?! When I'm smashes, posting on macrumors is the last thing that comes to mind.
So what is it, do you guys just sit in front of your computers drinking or what? What kind of parties are you going to where you end up on a computer!

Well, I did part of that. I had a sampler tray (5 0z. six different drinks, 5 beers, one cider as they were out of the something-Imperial Stout that I was going to try). Then I had (let's see if I can the order right): Jack & Coke, 1 shot of Goldshläger, 1 shot a Buttery Nipple (butterscotch schnapps, Irish Creme), 1 Screaming Nazi (that one actually made my jaw joint hurt), 1 Lemon Drop (Vodka + a lemon to bite, I couldn't taste the vodka anyway), 1 Long Island Iced Tea (my friend put salt on my lemon when I was in the bathroom, then everyone got me to eat the lemonibook30 said:

I should commend Apple on the iPod, as it is easy to use while drunk. OS X, not so much
ok just woke up this morning and saw all of my bad typing and I could not believe I was posting and typing while intoxicated so I am editing my posts! I am so ridiculous when I am drunk!!

With practice - OSX is easy to maneuver in spite of booze. But I recommend against the practice.
