Comment on What is it like being drunk? How much control do you have?
AskewLord@piefed.social 16 hours agoI mean I am like that when I’m drunk, but that’s also who I am in general. When I was super drunk in college I would self-regulate and stop drinking and like go somewhere safe to sober up. I also never hooked up with people drunk and stuff like that.
But many folks aren’t like that, you’re right. They are not monitoring their sobriety and thinking about how impaired they are… they are just in the moment feeling what they feel and reacting accordingly.

You might have a pilot you trust, but he’s still drunk

and he knows it. the issue with a lot of drunk people who do stupid shit is they don’t know they are impaired or drunk. often, in fact, they vastly overestimate themselves and their abilities due to the alcohol impairment.
