I get a bit more "I don't give a fuck"y, but otherwise I change very little. I'm more likely to want to wrestle someone, but I'm not one for real angry fighting (actually had to beat the crap out of a black out friend once because he got so aggressive, bad times). On the very few occasions that I've blacked out I've been told that i was still pretty nice if a bit more over the top and assertive.

Learn to TRULY give zero fucks.

You wouldn't have acted that way if you didn't care about your outgoing image while in a drunken stupor. Trying to look cool is fail, especially when forced, and that's exactly what you did.

Trust me, I see it all the time around my idiot friends.

Depends on what I'm drinking. If it's irish whisky, bourbon or a nice, crisp lager I don't really change except to get louder than usual... Rum is my happy drink but I don't drink it any more thanks to a clapped out pancreas... pretty much everything else is off the menu because I turn into a mean drunk when I drink them.

Also, seeing as I can easily piss away $500 in a single night out on the booze, I also change from not broke to flat fucking broke. One particularly epic night me and one of my nephews pissed away around $1500 between the two of us... he's my fave drinking partner because he's an extroverted, happy drunk who doesn't put up with my shit if I get surly and, being a bit bigger than me and near half my age, can make his displeasure known if need be.

I get some good ol' dutch courage when i drink, and i get super flirty too. Also things that would've brought a chuckle out of me have my on the floor giggling after a few drinks.

Depennds on what I'm drinking, where I'm drinking, and who's around... If I drink beer til I get drunk, I get lazy, usually, unless someone picks a fight with me, then I get punchy, but only if I'm out alone, if I'm with friends, and someone tries to pick a fight, I usually make fun of them for it in some way...

Mead, or wine, I tend to want to dance, or fight, or something, but not sit.

Vodka tends to get me rowdy, but not usually in a violent way, more just loud, obnoxious and mobile.

Whiskey, well I tend to drink whiskey only on occasions when I'm talking about interesting stuff with people or relaxing at home after a long day, so not really sure what would happen if I got drunk off of whiskey while out and about.

Rum see vodka.
Gin, see whiskey.
Scotch, see whiskey.

Anything else, I either don't drink, or haven't drank often enough or enough of, to have any solid info on the results.

Usually i start getting sleepy, lot more drinks and i start nodding off every few seconds. Now if friends are around and are boring me to death with boring conversations i start saying some awkward/weird/random stuff. Either questions arise or laughter.

Looking at this thread I just see post after post that I envy. I don't become cheerful and loving when I drink. Rather. I become a soulless monster. I am a pretty decent guy when I am sober. I love my family, I work hard and I try to treat others with respect.
But when I finally get drunk. I will hurt the people I love just for fun. So it is probably not a surprise that sober me and drunk me doesn't like each other very much. I hate the fact that I can't drink in fear of my friends and family's well being. If I was just hurting myself. Great. But this is just torment.
A girlfriend of mine (friend who happens to be a girl not a girlfriend girlfriend) and I was discussing alcoholism and when I brought up the fact that I turn in to Satan's right hand when I drink she asked: would you hurt me?
A question that still haunts me. It was both mentally and physically painful to say "I don't know".
I haven't touched alcohol in 6 months now. Because I fear what I'll do if I get too much.

It is literally painful to know that you turn in to this monster when you're just trying to relax. I don't wanna hurt anybody

I get louder, dumber, and (I think) even more amusing. Jury is still out on that one. Last time I got wasted I tried hitting on two chicks acting lesbian for the attention. Sober I would not have fallen for that trap, even with my friends egging me on, the bastards.

Loud. The room can't even handle how loud I get.
Also arrogant, even more than my usual self.

Worst possible combo ever imho.

I get awesome as a drunk. I toss out a variety of witty remarks, I discuss things with people I've just met, flirt like crazy (I'm quite charming even when sober, but drunk that just comes out all the time). I also get a little too loud.

However I have tried to work with these things since I realized that picking up drunk chicks while I am drunk is just too easy and the knowledge of that made it all feel a little sleazy.

I become a lot more talkative and chatty. I get more confident, and I don't feel shy any more. I find things a lot more funny than I normally would. I may even have made a few godawful attempts at flirting, although my memory is a little hazy about that...

Usually I'm more of a listener than a talker. I'll interject if I have something to say, but I'm mostly reserved and spend my time listening to people. When I get drunk though, I tend to get talkative. I interject more, and what I'd normally think in my head (I tend to be wittier than I let on) I'll actually say.

In general, people say I'm a lot more fun when I'm drunk. I think I'd agree with them.

I have to stop and just... think, about everything I'm saying. Try and take it slow, so that people can actually understand all those crazy words!

Plus everything just becomes amazing. Like seriously amazing.

Nope, percieved him has threat, wanted to remove threat. That is why I acted in such a disgusting manner. That is why people are ok with me acting in such a disgusting manner. Fuck it, several people told me I should have just taken him outside and punched him in the face. Not who I am, not what I do.

And as for learning to give zero fucks? It is not in my nature. Whatsoever. I am a kind and caring bloke (It is how I ended up with a girl in the first place) and I remain that way whilst drunk, most of the time. That shit that went down was a fluke. It is simply not in my nature. Seriously, at the age of 20, with roughly five years of drinking behind me, I have never become the douchebag I was last night in my life.

And as for trying to look cool?

I always look dapper. It is part of who I am. And if a ser looks dapper one no longer needs to try and look cool. (Take that whichever way you wish :p)

Quieter than usual, very relaxed and more observant. Usually once I am decently buzzed I just want to sit around and listen to other people's stories or people watch. It's interesting picking up on other interactions around you, reading body language to see who is in control, who is attracted to who, who is putting on a brave face, etc.

People are actually really interesting when they don't know they are being observed.

According to my wife and my best friend I am referred to as a philosophical or zen drunk. I think it's because I work with/talk to people all day so relaxation means turning it off for a while. My best friends are people I can sit around and not force conversations with, enjoying comfortable silence whenever it comes up.

Really depends on the drink and how much. Just a nice potent buzz and I just get very chatty, loving, and horny...

If its something thats really strong or something I can drink a lot of I will black out. Wake up later with the "Dude do you know what you did last night."

Yeah, I don't like the black outs at all.

1st can/bottle makes me sleepy after half an hour or so.

2nd makes me really intensely into whatever I'm doing (drinking in and of itself is never an activity for me, only an accompaniment)

3rd is where I start feeling the physical effects a little bit.

4th I feel sick and tired again.

I very rarely go past 2 these days. Good and cheap as I can buy a 4-pack o' cider (beer is nasty) and it'll last me two weeks (I drink it while watching the Thursday night NFL games).
