Alcohol poisoning is very glamorous....
Jul. 9th, 2009 09:41 pmI'm long past the age of getting drunk to the point of getting sick. But there are a couple of incidents from my college days that I should mention at this time. Names are being withheld to protect the guilty.
Back before the days of the FIPG, one of the guys in my fraternity indulged a little too much and went out back to take care of himself. Lo and behold, someone took a picture of him being sick, went to Kinko's, and had the picture blown up to poster size. I think it should have been captioned "Alcohol poisoning is very glamorous." Kind of like the smoking posters from the 1970s.
Another went to a local bar and had a little too much to drink. He got sick on the way home. Someone wrote a rap song about it, and several titles were bestowed unto him. Titles like Titan of Toss. Viceroy of Vomit. Baron of Barf. Earl of Hurl. Duke of Puke. Champion of Chunder. And the Maharaji of Regurgitation.
Needless to say, these two guys cleaned up their act quickly, and never got sick from drinking again.
And the moral of this story is: Learn from the mistakes of others so you don't have to make them yourself.
