MrBig101 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 i do agree that people exaggerate sometimes, but it's not every time. I'd have to agree with this. I've watched a couple people that were completely out of it, to say the least, start sending unreadable messages to people. Hilarious to watch, by the way. Most people probably exaggerate, but it's pretty funny when they don't know what's going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tryfuhl Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Sometimes it happens sometimes it doesn't.. Obviously you lose coordination, but you also lose desire to use backspace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stew Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 I type crappy even when I am sober. I usually multi task when I am on here and could care less about my grammar or punctuation. I think once drunk people see that they have already made a mistake, they laugh and run with it (b/c they are drunk) and it ends up overdoing it. But they are drunk and they must be forgiven for they are in a weak state even if they still know spelling, grammar and punctuation, they are still under the influence and this is the reason for the misspellings. Again, its still drunk typing, but you need to understand that it is bad decision making in carrying on a stereotype,or a bad joke, rather then intoxication moving the keys on the keyboard. Now, Im just a bad speller, so even that defense goes out the window for me, but I just wanted to impart my take on these situations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkinsFTW Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 It probably depends on what you drink. I drink beer, never more than 6-8 beers, and I am always careful of spelling anyway. I don't spell lose loose or vice versa. Now I don't know how many of you have ever drank Shochu but that **** will put you into incoherency faster than anything I've ever touched. I don't drink it at home but if I did I'd probably lose the ability to care what I said, I'd remember none of it, and in the morning I'd see that in thread after thread I told you all over and over how great you all are and that I love you and ****. It's pretty pathetic, so I stay away, lol. It's like drinking 151 but it doesn't knock you out so you get to embarrass yourself after you drank too much and didn't realize it since it doesn't have much of a taste at all.

Burgundy Burner Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Who cares... Fun is fun. I'd rather have fun with it than have a bunch of boring topics. A sense of humor is a terrible thing to waste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DeanCollins Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 This has got to be the biggest bull**** ever. "Non iiist nooooot mman." Yeah it is. I've noticed it repeatedly over the years from many people. People come in here "drunk" and proceed to type like they're typing with their noses. Give me a break. I've been absolutely wasted and posted messages on here that were perfect. Maybe a mistype here or there that I was too lazy to change when noticed but that's it. And I'm talking about on the verge of alcohol poisioning wasted. Anyone agree with me? I disagree. There's no doubt that alcohol effect the drinker's motor skills differently. Take drunk driving for example. I'm not bragging and most of you know that I quit drinking decades ago, but I must have driven drunk over a thousand times and never wrecked, and I was no lite drinker. One of those times I blew a .27 and convinced the cops to let me take a cab home instead of charging me. So how could I manage that when many others couldn't?

PleaseBlitz Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 I have a whole thread full of drunken typing (that is now locked. ) I just dont take the extra time that it takes to type correctly. Sorry. If you dont like something on ES, just ignore it. Seems easier than complaining about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skin'Em84 Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 I think the only time I've been like that is the night I drank 3 Mad Dogs, I typed a message on AIM that looked something like "HoiAgeiNmj1pqp"...Apparently (because I don't remember coming home that night), my roommate couldn't understand a word I was saying either, and I woke up with vomit all over myself..so that may have had something to do.

Koala Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Its generally a waste of time trying to psychoanalyze the actions of drunk people. Maybe they're so drunk that they dont notice the mistakes, or maybe they're so drunk that they think it would be funny to pretend to be drunker than they are. Either way, who cares, drunk people do stup **** alll the time... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rincewind Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 I make a lot of mistakes typing while sober - the backspace key is my most common stroke. I think that when I'm drunk I just don't notice the mistakes as much... and I probably don't give as much of a ****. Its never on purpose though.

Jumbo Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Even sober I type like the worst drunk alive. Even my short posts require several edits for typos. I spell like a mofo but type like a spazz. I agree some of the drunk threads are exaggerated plays for attention. But I have zero doubt keeastman was for real. I can usually spot attention whores, drama queens, motor-mouths, ADHD, OCD, or those with simply general social interaction "challenges" (that they work out online because most people other than family won't put up with them for any length of time "irl"). And keeastman fits none of those categories. Now "whacky", sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OVCChairman Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I agree Colin. You have to be halfway to idiots-ville before you start typing that badly. In Slacky's case he's just a lightweight, and halfway to idiots-ville when he's sober, so I forgive him. But I think most of it's an exaggeration and a way to draw attention to your "drunkeness" than it is an impairment. I mean I've posted on here drunk before and typed just fine. you know Joe, you narrate a movie much like you type... very animated and outspoken haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheREALJBird Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I myself have typed drunk before. Most of the time I try to type slowly so I don't look like an idiot, but I've been totally **** faced before and rambled off something that didn't make a whole lot of sense. I think some people are just that drunk and don't care, but I also think others do it for attention. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Metalhead Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 To the OP...maybe the person is actually just that drunk? lol I've been all kinds - buzzed, half-way to oblivion, completely bombed, and the ever-popular "Sherlock Holmes" drunk. Each stage clearly has it's differences when trying to type. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
