    The key to posting when drunk is to not post something like:

    I AM TEH DRUNK!1!1!!11!1!!

    But I AM TEH DRUNK!1!1!!11!1!!

    no joke.


    And I am still capable of posting in a concise and accurate manner.


    Posting while drunk shouldnt be a problem, just posting stupid on nonfamilyfreindlt stuff.

    Ah, underage drinking.... He's 19 and in the US?
    What if a German talks about being drunk at 19, because it's allowed at 18 here? Is that promoting underage drinking? It isn't really underage drinking, after all.

    Nope, it isn't. It's the same thing with smoking pot... legal in canada, not the US... these subjects just need to be delt with tastefully.

    Technically, it's not legal here (yet), but the cops don't care unless you're a dealer. If a cop finds a joint on you, he'll just take it away. No fine, no nothing (unless you were driving).

    Since there's an election coming up sometime this year, I'm expecting a few more steps taken towards legalizing it.

    Have I posted while under the influence? yes

    Have I bragged about being drunk while posting? no

    Have I been sillier when PUI? yes

    Have I broken the TOS when PUI? no

    like has been said, so long as you're not breaking the TOS, you're fine.

    I've posted drunk before, but I usually spend more time IMing if I'm drunk.

    Could you imagine the field sobriety test for PUI?

    Mod: Ok Moon, get out of your chair.
    Moon: Yes sir.
    Mod: Have you been drinking this evening?
    Moon: No sir.
    Mod: Yes, well, my intuition tells me otherwise, and you've been posting in a reckless manner.
    Moon: It's not my fault sir. My keyboard is out of alignment. I promise I'll get it fixed.
    Mod: Alright Moon, but first I'd like you to stand with one foot propped up on your computer desk, hold your arms out to your sides, tilt your head back, then take your left index finger and touch the tip of your nose. Failure to reply within 60 seconds and I will automatically assume you've fallen and cannot get back up to your keyboard.
    (pause)
    Moon: Ok, there, I did it.
    Mod: Hmmmmm..... Now I want you to begin typing the alphabet..... backwards.
    Moon: Uh..... z-x-......y..... q.....
    Mod: Alright Moon that's enough. You've failed the Jedi Council Forums field sobriety test. Get in the squad car, you've earned yourself a 24 hour ban to sober up.

    Mod: Ok d00d, get out of your chair.
    VF: no.
    Mod: Have you been drinking this evening?
    VF: look who you're asking.
    Mod: Yes, well, my intuition tells me you are, and you've been posting in a reckless manner.
    VF: get bent.
    Mod: Alright VF, but first I'd like you to stand with one foot propped up on your computer desk, hold your arms out to your sides, tilt your head back, then take your left index finger and touch the tip of your nose. Failure to reply within 60 seconds and I will automatically assume you've fallen and cannot get back up to your keyboard.
    (pause)
    VF: go away.
    Mod: Hmmmmm..... Now I want you to begin typing the alphabet..... backwards.
    VF: ever shine your nuts with the phone?
    Mod: Alright VF that's enough. You've failed the Jedi Council Forums field sobriety test. Get in the squad car, you've earned yourself a 24 hour ban to sober up.
    VF: go away.

    teehee.

    Here, Here!

    I have been doing a A LOT of IMing tonight. For some reason it's more fun.

    EDIT: Error: Invalid post attempt. Please try again. Referrer: http://boards.theforce.net/post.asp

    apparently the board thinks I'm up to no good. ;)
