Of alcohol? Or anything? :P

It's justifiably immoral to deal morally with an immoral entity.
If you trade based on what other people say, you will lose money. Especially what I say. I won't be held responsible. Festina lente.

Might want to change the poll question to just "under the influence" then.

The poll was inspired by a non-sequitur HHG2TG reference that showed up in General.

If this poll doesn't finish with over 70% yes, I'll be very disappointed.

I've never posted to TF while being drunk, at least in the sense of being drunk like a glass of water is drunk.

But being intoxicated, sure, I've posted under the influence plenty of times. By plenty of times I generally mean more than once a week on any given week since I have been here.

I've posted buzzed but never completely wasted here before. I voted yes though.

I used to a lot. Now I try not to and I'm pretty successful at it. I got tired of doing a /facepalm in the morning when I read the previous nights (sometimes unjustified) bile.

Everyone needs a good self-facepalm once in a while.

Can't drink. Low tolerance for alcohol, and right now virtually a 24x7 attendant for a disabled person. (Because of health problems, big brother is living with me right now. He's in a wheelchair, but most of the house is wheelchair accessible, so he can move around freely. But, if he needs help, I need to be clean and sober.)

I think at least Champ remembers when I started posting during my Vegas trip when I got back to the room after drinking a lot of champagne at the craps table.

We, in the ages lying, In the buried past of the earth,
Built Nineveh with our sighing, And Babel itself with our mirth;
And o'erthrew them with prophesying, To the old of the new world's worth
Each age is a dream that is dying, Or one that is coming to birth.

I've tried to abide by a self-imposed "two drink" rule. Didn't always manage it, though. (As you may have surmised...) smiley
