A lot of times I'll be drinking and not real sure if I'm drunk or not, or exactly HOW drunk I am. I'll be what I think is perfectly fine yet everyone else says I'm trashed.

In any case, I have discovered I have a drunk-tell. I start grinding my teeth. If I start grinding my teeth, its time to give the car keys away.

Anyone have something like that?

When I giggle like a school girl or try and stand up and have to think about it, I'm drunk.

^^ Same here.

A quote I like is "If you can lie on the floor without holding on, you're not drunk."

When I use to drink I knew I was drunk if I started thinking about how awesome it was to be drunk.

-i like to chug 4-5 beers straight while im sitting then stand up.... yea i'd be buzzed, and i love that feeling of standing after sitting while drinking.

recently when i was REALLY messed up, my friends have told me i have kicked someone like pretty hard at a party while screaming,"THIS IS SPARTA!!!" then i fell on the ground. after they told me this i was pretty embarrassedthis was the effects of hard alcohol, and im usually a beer drinker.

i tend to stumble and i know im drunk... slurred words...


and tonight is friday so ill have a story tomorrow morning Smile

I can gauge how drunk I am while I piss. That's always been my point of reference. If the toilet starts getting blurry or shaky, I know I'm getting drunk. If it's a trashcan or a random hole...I'm drunk.

Slurring my words and staggering around means I am pretty trashed.

Oddly enough, when I get drunk, my face gets numb. This is my tell.

I maintain very well. Usually when I notice I'm drunk it's time for bed.

On spring break I decided to drink a case. I showered and shaved my head with little difficulty after #20 (about 10 hours in).

This must be awkward for whoever you're drinking with.
