My favorite drunk dial ever
I’m on vacation in london to meet up with your friends from new york.
Drank 15 pints and realize i had promised to call my grandparents ..
3 am in London is 7pm in Los Angeles.
15 pints = 125 dollars or so (stupid exchange rate (but no tipping!))
100 min calling card = 10 dollars
30 min conversation with your grandparents you have no recollection of = priceless

that’s all true, but also, dude, that stick is so far up your ass it’s probably coming out of your mouth. in type. on the internet. Sobriety is rewarding only when you don’t hang out with drunks. Otherwise it’s like a white person pretending they’re black. It’ll either turn out like a bad sitcom or you’ll embarrass your parents. Either way= no good.

mmm, how about “WHEN BEING SOBER AROUND DRUNK PEOPLE GOES WRONG”
having had quit drinking, I’ve noticed certain unfortunate, very irritating things happen when you’re the only person sober around drunk people. Who are totally oblivious to their fuck-ups.
1- Being hit on the head by random, spastic drunken movements. Being sober doesn’t help you anticipate the unpredictable.
2- Having to chase drunk people all over town because they always have a better plan which always involves going somewhere else. You almost always end up back where you started or at a public transport stop.
3- Being the person held responsible by any authority for any action by any drunk person in your group. I thought sobriety was supposed to be rewarding.
4- Having to pick up the tab for a friends who are sober enough to order complicated, expensive alcoholic drinks but too drunk to remember their pin-code or the fact they’re broke
5- Having to deal with the cringeworthy, infuriating, expensive mistakes of the previous night. Without trying to strange your friends who wake up completely oblivious to the shit they put you through.
And sobriety is supposed to be rewarding! At least being drunk is somewhat predictable, even if the drunk himself is not. Being sober around drunk people? Almost makes you want to hit the bottle- better the devil you know.

How bout when you throw a party and the cops show up but no one gets arrested and you don’t get fined anything? That’s pretty sucky but okay at the same time.
