Why get (overly) drunk?

Inspired by the "How often are you allowed to get drunk/week" thread, and some of the :disgust: replies.
Personally I can't be bothered to spend loads buying drink, getting drunk, and not really getting any benefit from it. Sure, you might have a bit more fun than if you weren't drunk, but you can have fun while sober, and if you get too drunk then you won't remember half the night anyway.

And to those who don't get too drunk, why not? Don't you want to enjoy yourself a bit more? Getting drunk every once in a while isn't going to kill you if you're sensible (ie: don't drive) 😛

Sensible + drunk = impossible
 
Why get drunk? I see no reason for it. I drink...but I don't drink a lot and I don't drink all that often. I find drinking doesn't do much for me other than empty money from my bank account.
 
I have in the past, not anymore. No appeal at all to get THAT drunk. Just enough to enjoy the buzz off it. If I drink once maybe twice a week, I'm lucky.
 
Don't get drunk anymore, now I prefer a mild buzz. Used to get drunk though and the only reason for it is that it was fun at the time.
 
I don't drink, only had drinks a few times at was only one because I thought I was cool at sixteen.

Dad got drunk every weekend on days off, disrupted the house making it unpleasant to be there. He died in July from falling down the stairs while drunk at home, suffering major internal bleeding of the head.

Why get drunk? Seriously.
 
So I can get really pissed and go play counterstrike. I play better drunk, and its a much more enjoyable experience.
 
Peer pressure and I generally get the alcohol for free... either my co workers take me out or friends have a nice stash.
 
I like to mooch off other people if i can, but I don't see a need to get drunk either. I would rather hang out with friends. IF they drink, they drink that's fine as long as we are their to chill out an were alcahol is not the focus.
 
of course this is posted on a sat. morning, when everyone who drinks is still in bed

i'll drink and have fun with friends and sometimes that involves drinking some more which will end up getting us "too drunk"...but its all good

would never have found my current g/f if i didnt drink (met at a bar)
 
Good question, I think people love continuously drowning their livers and throwing up multiple times for the feelings of being over drunk.. it's understandable.
 
I'm working this morning so no drinking last night for me.

You should define "drunk" in this thread.

The government defines it as .08 which is retarded. I define it as that point you reach after getting your buzz.

Being drunk is different than being wasted. I like being drunk. I only like being wasted once in awhile. (defined as 1 a month or longer)

It is a huge stress reliever and you do many stupid things that you wouldn't do sober so it is a great escape. The great escape part can be used for virtually all drugs.
 
Getting drunk is fun.
That being said I've massivly cut down, This year, I have not drank myself to the point of sickness or hangover at all. Though at a buddies BBQ I did consume a decent amount of booze...

Don't worry, I'm awake now.

Because it tastes so good.
