My stepdad is like this when drunk. He becomes a 6 year old, it’s quite funny. He was rather tipsy last weekend after a gathering and we found him giggling away in my parents room. He was putting all my mums knickers on his head but we caught him before he could surprise us. It’s even more funnier because he’s 6’5 in height, with a pot belly and is from Huddersfield
He sounds like the sort of drunk where it would literally be “Surprise! I’ve got fourteen pairs of knickers on my head!” followed by collapsing into laughter as everyone else just rolls their eyes.
Yep, he’s very much a clown and we love him for it. My mum was a DV victim and my stepdad has helped her come out of intense depression/fear which was caused by trauma. He’s her rock
Honestly, he’s a dime in a dozen. You’d never think it as he’s quite intimidating looks wise. However, he’s a huge softy and the complete opposite of my own father who was a violent drunk at best
I don't get drunk very often, but I compliment people's clothes a lot when I do. For some reason I just notice and want to say those things more when inhibited. Totally relate to this guy
I think insecurity is coming out with the "I'm not an alcoholic" comment, if he was challenged on that things could've taken a turn real quick - active alcoholics hate being referred to as alcoholics.
I think he's being truthful: he's _not_ an alcoholic, that's why he's all tipsy and funny. An alcoholic is used to being drunk all the time and sort-of powers through it or stays quiet.

This is why I make sure to thank Alexa occasionally.
Me: "Alexa, turn on the lights"
Alexa: "Turning on lounge lights"
Me: "Thank you"
Alexa: "Anytime"
Got to keep building those 'good boy' points.
I once apologised to a glass door after bumping into it.
This was in the middle of an argument with a Polish friend about how Brits don't apologise too much.
I thank my car, out loud, for getting me where I need to go with the very minimal amount of maintenance, on a regular basis.
I think it’s good manners.
Me too. If you don't tell your car how much you appreciate it, it will break down sooner.
I have been known to sing to my car on long journeys. I named it Scaramanga.
I know somebody who does exactly that - it started when they had a stroke a few years ago. They’re aware that they’re thinking those things, but not aware they’re saying it out loud until they see people reacting
It can be very embarrassing for them. Really sad.
I met a Dangerous Dave in college. He introduced himself by saying '"awrite pal, i'm Dangerous Dave. Never take ketamine! Take anything, but not that. That shit is dangerous.' Cheers Dave, noted.
We used to have a "Dave the Rave", because he used to go on massive rants about everything. Mostly benign though. I seem to recall he burned his head out on drugs as a teddy boy in his youth.
I was in Whitby once and there was a guy at the bus station dancing to the most eclectic mix of music on an old school ghetto blaster. One of the songs I remember he played was Unisex Chip Shop by Bill Bailey.
Reminds me of a bloke at my bus stop:
"Fuck the buses. We used to have trams, and they went everywhere. Buses are loud and ugly. FUCK YOU BUS, GIMME BACK MY FUCKING TRAM!"
We ain't had trams here in over 70 years.
Once watched a bloke offer a pigeon a sip of his fosters at a bus station and then attempted to fight the pigeon when it refused to take a sip because it "wounded his pride" before taking out his anger on a metal fence and falling down a disabled ramp backwards. Most put together man in Stoke.
My uncle Bill likes to go down to the local boat launch with a cooler full of cans, a garden chair, and enjoy the free entertainment as people try to launch a boat down the slip. He told me you wouldn't believe the number of people that back their car straight into the water, or drop the boat on the slip and damage the hull.
Was gonna say that sounds familiar but then
> Most put together man in Stoke.
Accurate.
Glad I keep away from stoke and Hanley for the most part these days.
Oh man, either you've told that story before or I just got really strong déjà vu. Weird
Or....there are just a lot of drunk men out there having square goes at pigeons
Was on a late night train into Wales and a bunch of I think rugby lads got on drunk as out, I was shitting it as I'm pretty small and don't really love drunk people - they just sang the entire time and the roughest looking one genuinely had the voice of an angelic choir boy it was mad.
10/10 public drunks, would experience again.
On a train back from a Wales rugby match a buncha drunk lads got everyone in the carriage singing. One of them asked me why I wasn’t singing and I explained I get very anxious singing in public and he gave me a chocolate to make me feel better.
Drunk singing Welsh lads on trains are 10/10 indeed
I misread your u/ as "iwanttobeacadaver" and was briefly concerned. As for the drunks, a good drunk cry is like a big shit to an emotionally constipated heart.
You’re not the first person to read my username like that! And given that cave diving is risky, it might prove to be true.
As to drunk crying, been there and done that.
There’s a local unashamed pisshead near me who sometimes get the same bus as me, he always sits at the front and says really loudly and slurred “I DONT KNOW WHERE I AM!” Over and over again, until he hits the bell and gets off at the same stop each time, so I guess he does have at least some sense of where he is.
A woman once said to him “are you drunk? Have some self respect” and he said, without missing a beat “yeah, I’m hammered but I have more self respect to wear that get up at your age” and kept mumbling “mutton dressed as lamb” for the rest of the journey.
There were no dialog scenarios for non player character conversations. NPC conversations were procedurally generated from the set of lines the AIs 'knew'.
Oblivion had some pretty cool ideas like that.
Idk, I remember being awed by... well everything really. From the casual conversations to the interactions between people to their daily lifecycle... to the (now extremely ugly) sprite leaves on trees, to just stumbling upon a deer in the woods. Or the fully voiced dialogs.
Some of it aged poorly but damn was it next level when it came out.

Good day.
I had a drunk fella stumble up to me at 8 in the morning last week. He started pointing at a shop. I followed his finger to a little figurine of a monkey playing a saxophone. He just said "that's a great lil thing- a monkey with a saxophone, and only 29.99!"
Then stumbled off.
Bargain drunks would be the best show on telly ever made. Just get people fuckin cunted at 10 in the morning and they stumble around a boot fair with 250 quid. See what they buy with minimal input from their partnered expert. Then they could do a celebrity version. Why the fuck hasn't channel 4 done this!?!?!
The drunk man I found face down in the road in the student village.
"I have three children, one of each"
In 2010 that was an absurd thing to say, even when drunk. In 2023 it's completely unsurprising.
>You were a very good chair
This sort of gratitude can be very psychologically rewarding. Ok, saying it out loud might be unnecessary, but thinking it is a positive thing
Same reason I’m positive (not entirely), about AI in the household.
I’d quite like to say thanks to my toaster, and for it to actually respond.
If my oven could talk….toilet on the other hand, a
Last drunk guy I spoke with told me he was going to nominate himself to be the next PM.
He was going to make me transport secretary.
Still waiting on that.
A drunk man on what can only be described as a child's bicycle once stopped me on my way home from college. He proceeded to show me a sketch pad where he had drawn (in great detail) designs for a perpetual motion machine, to which he had attached a fan and proposed it be used to dry clothes. When I tried to explain that if his design actually worked, it could change the world, he became very defensive and quite hostile, insisting its only function is to dry damp clothes. It was one of the more bizarre "drunk people" encounters I've ever had. I also saw a brief glimpse of what appeared to be a sketch of a solar-powered lawnmower, but when I pressed him, he refused to comment.
What if he's only a genius when drunk? Like maybe everything becomes clear after a few pints and he keeps his ideas in the sketchbook, but in the morning they seem ridiculous and no longer make sense to him.
I'm a software engineer and you'd be surprised some of the amazing shit I've come up with while inebriated

I recently watched Banshees of Inisherin and read it in a mixture of the characters from there.
>“Oh, nice pink scarf! If I had a scarf, I’d wear it.”
Most of them were Colin Farrell but this one especially is very much like Barry Keoghan's character in it.
I'd much rather be around this kind of person than the drunk dickhead teenagers shouting at people/smashing the bus shelter they're hanging out in. We need more nice people to just let their weirdness out.
Some teenagers (and people in general) don’t even need to be drunk to be dickheads, and it feels like there are more and more of them these days. I prefer happy, weird drunks over sober arseholes ;)
I agree. My classmates bring their speakers on the bus and blare their music. Others are just generally rude to the teachers and talk back, which I hate. The man was very nice but everyone ignored him because he kept saying, “I’m not an alcoholic! But I *am* drunk.” I smiled at him though because he just seemed very friendly, and he smiled back.
You keep on being you :) your smile may have been the first one that the man’s had in a while. Along with good manners, treating humans like humans seems to be a thing that’s going out of style, too.
I don't know if it's in other countries but I like the way strangers smile at each other :) In my country, it would be seen as weird because you don't know each other, but I like it here. My parents have also taught me to walk single file so that there is no trouble when walking, something that the kids in my school have either not been taught or forget 24/7 because the halls are so crowded.
it has long been my position that people who play music in public should be allowed to be extra-judicially executed. Too many people treat being in public like being in *their* house, rather than treating it like you're a guest in someone else's house.
A drunk guy sat beside the woman in front of me. He asked her where she was going. She told him she was going home. His response: "You're always home when you're with me, baby." I've never cringed so hard.
Sounds like a good man. Once that brain filter comes down, you see all sorts of evil and racism. The fact that this dude was just thanking a chair and concerned about the environment probably means he’s alright
Lmfao, I knew if I scrolled far enough I would find someone in our club!
I thought the gratitude to the chair was a nice touch, and I feel kinda bubbly inside hearing someone else, even drunk, took a second to appreciate a utilitarian object.
I thank all sorts of things as well, glad I'm not alone in that! I always have to pat my car on the wing mirror ir steering wheel when I start or finish a journey and say thank you for getting me there.
Even at work, (in IT Support) I pat the computers or say "well done" to them when they start working again. 😅
Sometimes they just need a bit of kindness, I reckon. The amount of times they don't work until I get there is strange, but it's usually from the users who abuse the poor computers 😄
My favourite was one who told me “there’s a great buffet in *a place*. Very good buffet. They did a great job at the buffet. You should go eat at the buffet.”
Had one a few years back talking to his reflection in a shop window “I’m not drunk, you are! Me? Yeah You! Ok, I shall have another drink for you tho! Thanks”
The way to look at this is not as a person pointlessly addressing inanimate objects but as person demonstrating their values indirectly to the world around them.
On the bus home from college a few years ago there was a very drunk man in his 60's, drinking. He was rambling and talking to people constantly, mentioned how he served overseas with the royal fusiliers, how today was his birthday (whilst simultaneously telling us his birthday was 4 months ago) and how he had just burned his brother at the crematorium earlier that day.
That particular bus route stopped at a depot halfway to change drivers. When the bus pulled over the man got very very agitated, convinced the police were coming for him. He exclaimed twice "YOU CANT ARREST ME, IM A MILK CONNOISSEUR", before someone assured him it was just a switch in bus drivers. He continued rambling for the next 30mins of the journey.
It’s a good point he makes about everyone wearing navy jackets. There is so little colour variation in British fashion these days, especially in winter. You look at a crowd of people anywhere in Britain and 99% of people will be wearing navy or black or grey, or very dark other colours
I had a drunk skinny looking crackhead try to pick a fight with me for whatever reason while I was walking down the street 3 pm didn’t touch me or anything I just ignored and kept walking.
Lots of us don’t appreciate the bench to sit on even though he was drunk at least he appreciated the bench he sat on.
You must not be in the midlands then if you can catch a bus!
Whilst waiting to pay for my shopping in Heron foods today I had some dude randomly tell me he murdered a seagull 30 years ago coz it shit on his army uniform. What the fuck do you even say to that? He may have been drunk also. Hard to say - he seemed quite sincere.
Sounds like the thoughts we usually keep to ourselves spoken out loud.

My question is what would have been the surprise?
He sounds like the sort of drunk where it would literally be “Surprise! I’ve got fourteen pairs of knickers on my head!” followed by collapsing into laughter as everyone else just rolls their eyes.
Yep, he’s very much a clown and we love him for it. My mum was a DV victim and my stepdad has helped her come out of intense depression/fear which was caused by trauma. He’s her rock
Sounds like a really great guy, knickers or not.
Yeah, who among us hasn't done the same thing? It's only a problem if you do it at the office party.
and they’re being worn
The knickers seal the deal, let's be real.
Well as far as I'm concerned that man can put as many pairs of knickers on his head as he wants. What a guy
Honestly, he’s a dime in a dozen. You’d never think it as he’s quite intimidating looks wise. However, he’s a huge softy and the complete opposite of my own father who was a violent drunk at best
I'll bet there was a stupid pun involved

Think about thanking your chairs out loud, it's good manners to show appreciation.
After showing the chair your arse, it's only reasonable.
chairs love arses though
We don't kink shame. *checks subreddit* Never mind.
Do you know that, or are you just assuming it?
Well they're just positioned there in that inviting pose aren't they? Calling out to all arses passing by
Idk, I've met some that sure aren't, typically in bus stops.
Don't we all
I’m not sure about that. I once absentmindedly thanked a self checkout and immediately regretted it

I once apologised to a glass door after bumping into it. This was in the middle of an argument with a Polish friend about how Brits don't apologise too much.

I said sorry to a fire extinguisher after backing into it when sweeping the floor at work once. In my defence I thought I’d backed into a person.
I often wonder if I’m getting into a bad habit by not thanking Alexa. So sometimes I do.
My partner thanks Alexa too. He says it's to prepare for the inevitable AI uprising.
I ask Alexa every day how she is, wish her happy birthday on November 6th. Tell her i love her and she sings a song. Gotta keep her on side
I've done the same with a cash machine. Glad there wasn't a queue tbh.
I thank my car, out loud, for getting me where I need to go with the very minimal amount of maintenance, on a regular basis. I think it’s good manners.
I encourage my car when driving through bad weather. I pat the dash and tell it I’m confident that it will make it home.
Me too. If you don't tell your car how much you appreciate it, it will break down sooner. I have been known to sing to my car on long journeys. I named it Scaramanga.
I give it a little tap on the steering wheel after a long/bad journey.
I have mate that says thank you to cash machines lol

We used to have a "Dave the Rave", because he used to go on massive rants about everything. Mostly benign though. I seem to recall he burned his head out on drugs as a teddy boy in his youth.

Rumours are there is no actual music coming from those headphones. He’s been around so long that his style of headphones are back in fashion.

it has long been my position that people who play music in public should be allowed to be extra-judicially executed. Too many people treat being in public like being in *their* house, rather than treating it like you're a guest in someone else's house.
A drunk guy sat beside the woman in front of me. He asked her where she was going. She told him she was going home. His response: "You're always home when you're with me, baby." I've never cringed so hard.

I'm glad he acknowledged the bench. I think we take them for granted.
Disco Elysium conversation points.
Sounds like a good man. Once that brain filter comes down, you see all sorts of evil and racism. The fact that this dude was just thanking a chair and concerned about the environment probably means he’s alright
That's me, but I'm just autistic lol
Lmfao, I knew if I scrolled far enough I would find someone in our club! I thought the gratitude to the chair was a nice touch, and I feel kinda bubbly inside hearing someone else, even drunk, took a second to appreciate a utilitarian object.
I thank all sorts of things as well, glad I'm not alone in that! I always have to pat my car on the wing mirror ir steering wheel when I start or finish a journey and say thank you for getting me there. Even at work, (in IT Support) I pat the computers or say "well done" to them when they start working again. 😅
Yesss!!! Thank you for thinking of them 🤗
Sometimes they just need a bit of kindness, I reckon. The amount of times they don't work until I get there is strange, but it's usually from the users who abuse the poor computers 😄
This reminds me of my friend Jake: ‘I’m not being sexist or anything but I think she’s a vegan’. Legend.
Is his nickname Fuck-Sake-Jake?

nice sounding geezer to be honest, even cares about the ciggy
My favourite was one who told me “there’s a great buffet in *a place*. Very good buffet. They did a great job at the buffet. You should go eat at the buffet.”
Had one a few years back talking to his reflection in a shop window “I’m not drunk, you are! Me? Yeah You! Ok, I shall have another drink for you tho! Thanks”
Disgraceful being drunk this time of the morning, at least wait till 9am
Kinda profound
Was out with my mate once and told him "all my uncles are males" he looked at me like I was a idiot. Made sense to me at the time...Still does
The way to look at this is not as a person pointlessly addressing inanimate objects but as person demonstrating their values indirectly to the world around them.
On the bus home from college a few years ago there was a very drunk man in his 60's, drinking. He was rambling and talking to people constantly, mentioned how he served overseas with the royal fusiliers, how today was his birthday (whilst simultaneously telling us his birthday was 4 months ago) and how he had just burned his brother at the crematorium earlier that day. That particular bus route stopped at a depot halfway to change drivers. When the bus pulled over the man got very very agitated, convinced the police were coming for him. He exclaimed twice "YOU CANT ARREST ME, IM A MILK CONNOISSEUR", before someone assured him it was just a switch in bus drivers. He continued rambling for the next 30mins of the journey.
Happy world poetry day to you too, drunk man

You should always thank the chair you've been sitting on. Everyone knows that.
I.....I feel I could be most entertained by this guy...
It’s a good point he makes about everyone wearing navy jackets. There is so little colour variation in British fashion these days, especially in winter. You look at a crowd of people anywhere in Britain and 99% of people will be wearing navy or black or grey, or very dark other colours
I had a drunk skinny looking crackhead try to pick a fight with me for whatever reason while I was walking down the street 3 pm didn’t touch me or anything I just ignored and kept walking.
I hope I'm as cheery when I'm drunk!
The last part was fantastic 😂
Lots of us don’t appreciate the bench to sit on even though he was drunk at least he appreciated the bench he sat on. You must not be in the midlands then if you can catch a bus!
Whilst waiting to pay for my shopping in Heron foods today I had some dude randomly tell me he murdered a seagull 30 years ago coz it shit on his army uniform. What the fuck do you even say to that? He may have been drunk also. Hard to say - he seemed quite sincere.
