The interesting little thing with drinking is, a lot of people, after being drunk, when talked to about something they may have said, often like to say, "Oh, I was just drunk." The interesting thing is, while yes, they were drunk, it's not neccessarily an excuse. When you're drunk, or especially pissed drunk, you've no inhibitions. That's why drunk people often do stupid things. That's why some people, when drunk, have different personalities. You'll often hear things like, "Oh they're a totally different person when they're drunk." That's because there's absolutely no inhibitions holding them back. Anything you'd normally be reserved about, anything you keep pent up inside, and all the little stray random thoughts that go through people's heads, is all free to come out. If anything, when you're drunk, you're probably the most honest and sincere you'll ever be. Besides losing cognitive reaction times and function the more your fill yourself up.
