I had physics homework due tomorrow that I needed to do but there were two other factors that complicated it:
I haven't slept in 18-ish hours
My parents seem to enjoy trying to get me drunk, and my mother gave me three glasses of a rather nice Tuscan red which paired wonderfully with the veal that I had for dinner.
Okay, let me just explain again just how much alcohol I had. It's not like a 4.5ABV beer; wine has like a 12-14ABV, and I've noticed that more expensive wines tend to have more alcohol. I have a very low tolerance for alcohol and at the end of my meal I had a hard time standing upright. Let me just tell you guys that being drunk is not fun. I've so far managed to not drink so much that I've had a bad hangover and I've so far never thrown up but I'm having a hard time with hand-eye coordination, balance and vision (especially depth perception), in addition to probably some mental faculties being taken offline due to the amount of alcohol, and a terrible stomach ache. Being drunk doesn't make you act like a crazy idiot like what movies will make you believe (at least not for me) but it is still not fun. Now couple that with sleep deprivation and about an hour's worth of fucking difficult physics homework. That's what I went through just a second ago. I do not recommend getting drunk right before doing homework.

Actually, on the contrary to your drunk idiot comment, from what I've noted my step-dad becomes more sociable after being drunk and my mom can't stop giggling. Believe, it was rather annoying when we were watching the third debate between Trump and Hillary and my mom (The parents had cocktails for purposes of "making the pill easier to swallow") couldn't stop laughing and putting snapchat filters on them (Somehow worked even though their faces were on a tv).
Face swapped Hillary and Trump is an experience...

Wasn't anywhere near the amount of alcohol you drank, meaning that it's not the problem, or that the problem may be you've had too much to drink. |

Alcohol is meant to remove inhibitions, so I've been told. Maybe they secretly want to act like stupid idiots constantly giggling whereas I do what I want when I want when sober so that there's less drastic a change. |

Actually, according to modern science, alcohol is a depressant. While they may make you more susceptible to being taken advantage of ("Hey can I have fifty bucks?" "Sure man!") any increased amount of activity is purely caused by the mind (Reference placebo effect) and is not a real effect of it. Of course, I could be wrong. I don't drink. |

I drink as much as is necessary to get people to stop asking me to drink, and even then I stick with wines because I know that those actually taste good (unlike most beers I've had (though, that said, aside from the bubbles I quite liked the bottle of Krombacher that I once tried, but I couldn't get through more than a few sips due to the bubbles)). I've only ever tried beers and wines (mostly French reds, but also some Italian reds and some whites from various places) so I can't speak for the quality of whisky or brandy or other stuff that I've never tried. |

Mead is an excellent choice of drink. Typically same proof as wine, but a wider arrange of flavors because mead isn't stuck using only grapes.
Just polished off a bottle of juniper last night and it was deeeelicious.

I got a higher score on my physics than I normally do.

I got a higher score on my physics than I normally do. Lesson of the day: get absolutely smashed when doing work. Tim you must be like, half scottish or something. I will attempt this when making my game for my game design course and I will send the results. |
