You were so drunk that you don’t even remember ordering the phone? If that’s the case you have bigger problems than your credit cards.
Alright Debbie downer, you’re so much fun at parties I can tell. Please don’t turn what’s meant to be a fun post into something lame. Yes I made a drunk purchase. Millions have. It’s not that serious so save your judgment for someone who cares.
Drunk me was tired of us being behind so I now have an iPhone 12, oh well.
Don't worry, @Khaleesi Kendall, if you're ever in 🇸🇪 I'll take you to a party; and @Starscape is specifically not invited. 😉
Is it healthy? Absolutely not. But as long as it doesn't happen all the time it perhaps isn't the worst thing ever.
The actual danger comes more from if you find a pattern behind it; like if you're obviously spiralling, or the whole thing fits in with something going on in your life. Can't use booze to fill an empty heart, ya know. 🤷
My first reaction is to agree with you, but then I remember occasionally waking up, stumbling into the kitchen, and finding like a pizza in the fridge.

Investors for whatI'm sitting here in the middle of a damn pandemic writing to potential investors hoping for basically scraps, and then there are people that drunkenly just buy iPhones and laugh about it. My life sucks so bad. 😂
What else have drunken you bought in the past, anything fun?
My next dinner? 😉
It's a new approach to how to work with certain types of information management and distribution online. As it naturally allows a lot of work to move from server- to client-side it greatly cuts down on development time and operating costs; but that type of openness (which also happens to be fully decentralised) also requires different business models.
In itself that's not a problem, but it actually ends up meaning that in this case I'm trying to bootstrap what's essentially a new ecosystem of services; and then what you end up building/pitching deviates from the norm of what people are expected to hear, and how things traditionally would be implemented.
So… it gets a bit tricky. Fun. But tricky.
Maybe a picture of locking the bottles up would be more appropriate and mature thing tho post.
OP boasting about lack of control and tight clothing while drunk like some first year university girl....😬
Would you have made that same comment if it'd been a "bro" instead?
Just curious here. Would you have thought it boasting if a guy had mentioned form fitting clothes?
I've actually done just that in MR threads, I've talked about how I love my SS Apple Watch, with Milanese loop, because it fits well even when I wear nice tailored clothes; so I don't even have to carry my big iPhone all the time. And not once have I gotten a comment about my body or how the clothes fit. Not once.
So I'm curious here; do you think there sort of accidentally might be been something, you know, a touch sexist about how you react to a woman talking about the perfect phone in regard to how she's usually dressed? I mean, you're the one that took it from "form fitting" to "tight"; and doesn't those phrases have like a different feel to them? Not that there's anything wrong (or less professional) about either; but here it seems like part of the pattern of what you did when you made it into something negative that she mentioned the right iPhone for how she usually dresses.
No "try", just flagging your ass without being unnecessarily aggressive about it; and adding an educational touch to it.
First step to getting people to realise that they habitually might be treating some people differently is to give them a clear perspective; so I just pointed out that what you here used in a negative aspect about a woman, rather is something that I as a guy would get a compliment for.
Let's just also say that if I drunk-buy things I wouldn't have to expect any "what was he wearing at the time"-comments afterwards.
Ha thanks
it was meant to be a joke really and of course someone had to be all depressing about it. I’m in my mid 20s, it’s a pandemic and I was supposed to be vacationing in Italy this month. I think a random drunken purchase is okay vs killing someone while drunk suffices lmao
The fact this post really has anyone this bothered is both hilarious and sad at the same time.
Trust me I can definitely tell you about my lack of control if I was really boasting. I’m also not a first year university student. But a grad student. I also work as a bar manager/bartender in a strip club “hence the form fitting clothes” and why I adore my iPhone 12 size. Again me boasting would be me posting selfies in the camera thread lol
idk where this sanctimonious opinion comes from but that’s your prerogative not mine lmao. The point of the post was I was happy to have a new phone while sharing what MOST found to be a funny story.
It’s Tuesday. Have some tacos and tequila and stop being so judgmental. Life is too short lol
I drunk-bought those. 😆Should of got the airpods max too
No surprise the next day, though. 😅
The thing is I want them but I have a habit of losing things when drunk lolShould of got the airpods max too
Wowie, calm down. I don’t drink and never have, so the thought of putting myself into a state where I could navigate a procedure such as purchasing an iPhone online, then forgetting about it the next day seems kind of scary to me.
I honestly don’t care what you purchase when you’re drunk, or when you’re feeling ‘tired of being behind’ (??), but you chose to share that on a public forum.
Forget what I wrote before, you definitely are invited to the party. You'll experience a whole new world after your first glass of vodka or Bäska.
Lol I made a drunk purchase not committed a crime. It’s not that serious ha
the fact that
1. It’s been a week and this is still somehow relevant is sad
2. The fact anyone took what was meant to be light hearted post of fun as anything but is even sadder 🤷🏾♀️
Here's a pic of a bottle I convinced a friend in 🇭🇰 that we should have for our small informal midsummer dinner.
She never forgave me.
