When was the last time you were drunk

and how did it occur?

This thread is dedicated to the fact that I am sitting alone in front of my laptop drinking beer, and as thus want to know what my fellow poets, writers, critics, people from around the world think of this fine subject.

At the moment I am drinking a Norwegian beer called Herlige Lervig. It is tasty. Previlously tonight I have, I admit, drank quite a few Heinekens and also an odd cider.

So, how about you guys?

people ask me why i get drunk all the time, levels my head and eases my mind

Yay for people equal to or ahead of GMT. I will be for another 7 days or so. Back in the good ol' USA by May 26.
For right now, though, I've been drinking a variety of beers I usually don't find in the states: Newcastle Brown Ale, John Smith's Ale, Belhaven Best, Caffrey's, and of course, Guinness on tap while I can still have it. MmmmmmMMMmmmmm.
Cheers, for now,

Thursday night after the England game to the point of not being able to see.
And now add Saturday evening to that as well...(at least later when it is Saturday Evening that is)

August 1988---the end of my Bukowski-inspired port wine phase.
The cheap Gallo port was causing a ticking in the back of my head about an hour into each bottle.

Have not missed booze for one single second.

Prefer the bud.

Respect to you for that mate.
Like th grog a little to much to go without meself
As for the herb,makes me paranoid unfortunatley,never used to but not been able to smoke it now for about 10 years,which is a shame as I really like it

I'm a Homegrown boy, so if it's grown home, then count me in

Homegrown's
all right with me.
Homegrown
is the way it should be.
Homegrown
is a good thing.
Plant that bell
and let it ring.

I know it sounds dumb on paper, but add a couple of distorted guitars to a gloriously sloppy rhythm and then you have a true home-grass anthem!

Hehe, I actually cannot remember writing that post. First saw it now. Either that says something about me having alzheimers at the age of 25, or it says something about how drunk I was at the time of posting. You guys decide...

For me it was last Thursday night. I played a poorly attended gig at a coffehouse/bar where not many listened and even fewer cared. Several beers later, it didn't matter.

At the Mississippi Pizza SPORK magazine reading in Portland a couple weeks ago. I only had one beer before I read, was fine, then a second one afterwards, nursed to some good swing jazz. I didn't think I was buzzed until I saw a photo taken by my daughter. Man, I look like I'm about to fall out of the chair. Happy, not sloppy, but definitely not sober at that point. Two's my limit these days. More than that and it gets very dark in my world.

Now....it's 8:46 and I can't see...hoorah?

Hehehe. Great stuff. You can't see? Man, that's even more drunk than I get. And that's saying alot these days. Got shitfaced yesterday. Lost a couple of friends. So now, now I got alcohol, and that's about it.

Did Buk have a fav drink?i know in his short stories he always has or is getting another 6 pack(beer).

Sweet white german wine (Reisling?) in the later years.....

I think he was a fan of living the High Life. As in Miller beer, not weed.

i smoke good weed
daily

lotsa potheads in here...count me in.

I live in Saudi Arabia where alcohol is banned. There is home brew (known as sid here) but I don't like it so it's no booze for me 10 months of the year. On holidays of course I enjoy myself.

Too long.

I don't drink often but usually make up for it in quantity of alchohol consumed and antics undertaken.

For those who wish...

...to trod the path less taken:
