Happy New Year and Happy Blue Moon y'all. We had people over for New Years Eve. Lots of Champaign consumed at our house tonight. Lots of love to y'all and hopes for a peaceful and loving year to come. /cheers

Not sure this is the right thread (/me makes implications about Shiny's sobriety when posting that post ), but a happy new year to all of you from me just the same.

Kept it quiet...spent most of the evening at friends', then came home and watch Battlestar Galactica until 4 AM with a friend. Good times.

Yeah, happy new year to all.

I had a quiet one this year... stayed round my cousins place and played monopoly.

Split the post.

Happy new year. I got freakin' drunk as shit and passed out probably around 12:30. Good times.

Happy new year y'all!
I had some people over at my house, then went to the city centre. Came back home around 6.30. And now my room smells of cigars, blegh.

Indeed, Happy New Year to you all. I don't ever celebrate it but actually went out for the first time this year. Went round to my managers house with a few colleagues and got very, very drunk. I owned them all on Singstar and Mariokart though before passing out about 5am. I don't remember anything after 2am though... :S

Happy new year. I was with my brothers family at my summer apartment in Pärnu which is the summer capital of Estonia. No drinking and no passing out .

Pev, how much did you even drink to completely blank out for 3 hours and pass out?

/me has flashbacks of final scene of Kids

Lol well it's not as bad as it sounds as I'm quite a lightweight. Having said that *checks bottle* about two thirds of a 70cl bottle of vodka. Only the second time in my life I've been that bad, I'd sworn never to drink that much again though... oh well, I blame my colleagues.

yea, I've gone through the "I'll never drink that much again" phase on quite a few occasions. Funny how those promises tend to fade with time. I figure as long as you don't die, crap yourself, or throw up on a hottie, it's ok.

I only did two of those three, so i guess I'm still good.



(not really)

notice there was an 'or' in that sentence, not an and. Any in isolation is too far... all together.... well, you should probably be filming anti-alcohol commercials.

Heh, as a corpse that shat itself after throwing up on a hottie?

I would add "drinking yourself into a delirium or coma" to that. I've seen that happen a few times, and it ain't pretty. (no not to me)

what constitutes "delerium"?

It's basically booze-induced psychosis
