When Alcohol Begins to Speak
Posted: 12 Jul 2004 09:58 AM |
On a lighter note, I was reflecting the other day on a night out at some bars I went to a few weeks back, and remembered what I said when I was throughly intoxicated, which promted me to make this post to see if any of you other drinkers have or have had similar experiences.
I was out at a bar and drunk when i started blurting out rather boisterously, "Good on ya!" to friends i had there with me and any new person i met. I was also throwing out the "Ayes!" genereously instead of saying "yes." "Thanks for that, good stuff" slipped out a few times to the bartender supplying the drinks as well.
On a similar note, for any of you nondrinkers to be able to participate in this, "Well met" has also entered my everyday business vocabulary when meeting with customers or anyone in general who i have never met before.
So let's have some fun and hear about any similar situations or stories where Vives dialect has crossed over into your everyday sober or drunk lives.... |
"PLEASE!!! Bury me with it!" |

I have a very poor grasp of reality.
I have entire conversations in a Dwarvish accent and consider it a nonevent.
I wish people fare well, bow, and say "Well Met" when meeting people.
I also hail people with "Greetings" or "Salutations."
I LARP. While LARPing, I commonly use Vives names or use stories to help enhance my character.
I occasionally dress up as a superhero and walk about town.
I walk around the mall in my pajamas.
My peculiarities go on. |

| I'd need a tape recorder to catch any Alosynthism's that might come out when I'm drinking. I generally don't become loquatious untill I'm well and trully ripped, and I don't ever remember specifics when I get to that point. |

Though, now that I think of it, there is one that did get recorded, though it's only truelly funny if you were there. We, my friends that I was drinking with and myself, decided that a late night wake up call to a friend of ours in Cinncinatti was in order. Sadly, the answering machine caught it, and the message left was e-mailed back to us the next day. |

*gives Gene a knowing smile across the ether*
yes , especialy the "Ayes" , Ive even noticed that some people give you them back. Whether its catching or they're just humouring me is dificult to ascertain after 8 pints of Stella.
Suffice to say, i shall have to research the phenomenon some more this weekend. |

You can either keep it and watch it die.
Or let it go and watch it fly away.

<quote>
yr bar serves Stella in pint glasses? not in a proper artois glass? pfffttt. a half-arsed plank of a bar that be.
but seriously, considering that after i've knocked back a few pints (of guinness, mind ya), i tend to greet people w/ a vaguely incoherent "Oh-Aye!", & yes, i get them back.
then again, given that its the south, i also get back a fair bit of "heeeeyyyy", but not so much the expected "howdy" (what is this, oklahoma?).

Because that's the way things are.
Also, let me point out that the aforementioned activities I partake in are all SOBER.
I've never been drunk, so I have to rely on pure lack of dignity alone to do these things. |

since Gene brought it up...
this past winter ol Gener and I were off in Atlanta going to see 2 nights of one of my favorite bands play at one of the local venues... the concerts were great, lets fast forward to post show Waffle House... the lead singer of the band we just heard came in to the diner and I turned to him and said "Houseman, look at how much fun this kid just had at the show" then I pointed to ol Gene who was totally passed out cold hovering over his waffle and 2 eggs scrambled. After finishing my meal I grab Gener and throw him in the back of the nearest cabbie and we head out on our way. Gene IMMEDIATELY passes out again, fully stretching out in the back seat like it's his freakin bed or something. And mind you Im not in much better shape than he is, but somebody's got to get us home right?, or at least to Gene's friend's apartment where we were staying. so the cabbie says "Where to?" I look at him, he looks at me, I look at Gene, and say "Shite, I dont know... just start going in that direction" so the cabbie looks at me like Im an idiot and starts out... so the next few minutes I am taxing my brain to trying to remember the name of the apartment complex, all the while leaning back to the back seat to wallop Gene a few times to see if he would politley become alive enough for 2 minutes and tell me where the hell we are supposed to be going. then it hits me, I look at the cabbie, "I know where we are going, take us to PORT ROYALE!!" I sit back majorly satisfied at our destiniation and cabbie looks at me and says "Port where?" "Port Royale, damnit, thats where we are going!" After arguing with the cabbie for the next few miles I finally realize Im trying to get this poor guy to take us somewhere that is not only -not- in Atlanta, but nowhere in the "real world". I finally get my wits about enough to see the high rise apartments and point us in the right direction...
and after about 5 minutes of me AND the cabbie just wailing on Gene's legs and arms to get him up, he finally does, grunts, and we go about our merry way... to PORT ROYALE.
and ol Gener... a cleric of theus.... shame, shame... |

Excellent , i do enjoy a good pissed up adventure.
You're lucky you didnt end up in Jamaica, the site of Port Royale since 16th century.
Try explaining that to the missus! |

| Well, let's see here... The absolute WORST was when I was giving my girlfriend a hug once. Now, as you know, Hans and Rachel hooked up in the end and all that. Well, here I am with my girlfriend, giving her a hug, and instead of greeting her with "Hey Kathleen!", it was "Hey Rachel!". Oh feces, you do NOT want to do that. Believe me. |

| Cakes brought me to a party about a month ago, (eh...it got wild). When were home, I came into our bedroom , and made a mustache and a beard out of shaving cream and proclaimed myself to be the All-Knowing Scholar as I stomped around the room and read fictional information like average Ettin age, then I promptly fell on the bed, and was out cold. Cakes has pictures, and NO I am not sending you them. |

Dude, you will never be forgiven for that.
I live in constant fear of making that kind of mistake.
