Drink up - what's the worst that could happen?

I will start with an excerpt from an msn conversation I had with Deb, well, just now. It's absolutely priceless. I also think it fits perfectly the subject matter found at the end of this blog. Enjoy.


deb says:
i have a story you'll appreciate

Happy Singles Awareness Day! says:
oh yeah?

deb says:
so last wed my friend fergus ended up downtown "far drunker than he intended"

Happy Singles Awareness Day! says:
ahhaha

Happy Singles Awareness Day! says:
great quote

deb says:
and he had a 20, which is enough to get him home

deb says:
but he sees a street bum and decides to give him 5

deb says:
so now he has 15

deb says:
and he sees a 7-11

deb says:
and sun chips

deb says:
and now he has 11

Happy Singles Awareness Day! says:
this is getting so good

deb says:
and he thinks "dammit now i don't have enough to get me home"

deb says:
so what does he do?

deb says:
he buys 11 lottery tickets because he thinks "I'm going to win my way home"

Happy Singles Awareness Day! - Happy SAD! says:
holy fuck this is awesome

Happy Singles Awareness Day! - Happy SAD! says:
as if he felt that lucky

deb says:
i don't think it was luck, it was logic he was riding on that night

Happy Singles Awareness Day! - Happy SAD! says:
sounds like it

deb says:
he obviously wins nothing, stumbles to my friend miller's house

deb says:
which is like a 15 min walk from downtown

deb says:
he gets there at 3:30 (bars close at 2, you do the math)

deb says:
and buzzes until miller lets him in

deb says:
then he passes out on the couch and miller goes to bed, for about a minute before he hears fergus

deb says:
rather making a mess of himself

Happy Singles Awareness Day! - Happy SAD! says:
I'm dying over here

deb says:
and has to put him in the shower with his clothing on

deb says:
the pictures are terrible

deb says:
like, i can't look at this bad

Happy Singles Awareness Day! - Happy SAD! says:
oh my god pictures?

Happy Singles Awareness Day! - Happy SAD! says:
amazing

deb says:
well if someone woke you up at 3:30 to puck on your couch wouldn't you take pictures?

Happy Singles Awareness Day! - Happy SAD! says:
you better believe it


Weeeeelll sheeeit. You asked for it and I couldn't help myself any longer, so here is the video of Gabbo in all its low quality glory. I'm sorry I am such a hog for the airtime. I've changed since then, I swear. I was drunk and really excited. So the premise was that Yank was away this weekend I think, or just gone (maybe at someone's house?) and we had a message for him. Yank, fill us in, what was the set up?
