![]() Consuming any psychoactive drugs can by definition produce different thoughts and behaviors than a healthy sober person would normally engage in. Your comments so far seem to suggest that your view is a bit different from your title. Drunk you will also spout random horseshit. In sum: drunk you might disclose true things you would otherwise hide. It's just as likely that you're momentarily convinced of the profound importance of shrimp cocktail. But to say that you're more honest would presume that whatever pops into your head at a given moment accurately reflects what you believe. Drunk you lets fly and whether you believe it is still immaterial. Sober you knows how much it would hurt them to hear you say it and thus never says it. You'd never say that sober - your main reason for not saying it is not that it isn't true, it's that it would be hurtful. That doesn't always entail telling the truth by any means if someone tries to restrain or talk sense to you, you might say whatever it is that will hurt their feelings whether you think it's true or not. Normally you'd employ reason before speaking because adults understand that not everything they think makes sense. What comes to mind will be less constrained by rational thought - that is, you'll think things and say them without bothering to consider whether they make sense, are consistent, or are actually true. You'll likely say whatever it is that comes to mind. I adamantly believed both, but shrimp was not actually critical.ĭrunk you is you without a filter and stupid. Then, I told her it was very important that we share a shrimp cocktail despite her distaste for seafood. So the last time I was really drunk, I expended a soliloquy towards my girlfriend telling her how much I love her. ![]() Maybe an argument for extending grace and understanding to all drunks always? Some explanation for antisocial behavior based on alcohol consumption that is beyond the control of the drinker Happy for all non-American perspectives of course! But at a certain age and circumstance, enough is enough.Īlso, an acknowledgement that I’m mostly referring to American drinking culture, for what it’s worth. I’ll carve out a small exception for that first year-ish of someone’s life when they were introduced to binge drinking. I know that a lot of folks like to write stuff off the morning after by excusing this or that based on a certain number of drinks, but who you are and what you chose to do is a constant, regardless of how many beers you drank. I believe that what you say and do when you are drunk is as true a reflection of your identity and character as what is said and done when you’re sober. There is a wide world of drugs and ways to end sobriety, but I’m talking about beer, wine, and liquor. I’m specifically referring to Alcohol here. ![]() I also don't buy into any excuses by using one's inebriated state to help minimize any damage or otherwise done.The title is a saying that has had various versions over time and culture. At that very moment you are quite aware of what you are saying. ![]() I don't give a person the benefit of the doubt to the reasoning for saying something while drunk. Just because you don't remember what you said doesn't, in any sense, mean that you didn't mean what you said when you said it. BUT, alcohol serves to lower one's inhibitions, so what they could be saying can certainly be what they've lacked the courage to say when sober. In the end, you can never really know for sure how much is the truth or not. I have been drunk a few times in my life and remember everything I have said (I think ) and the context in which it was said. I understand that it depends on the amount of alcohol consumed and each person's metabolism. I tend to think it's when your hear the TRUTH. Does the truth come out when someone is drunk OR is what is said when someone is drunk not anything to put stock in? ![]()
