This is the sister portion to the dumb criminal thread. More for drunks in the news that really don't fit into criminal, or Darwin award.

Now I'm sure everyone's familiar with the man overboard story today. But this one tells me that the witness was drunk along with the man overboard.
Cruise ship passenger rescued
A witness told the Coast Guard that the man ran through a ship cabin window and fell into the water near Fort Lauderdale. It's not clear whether the window was open at the time.

Usually , people does crazy things when they're drunk.
Doesn't know how they did it and why they did it, its just when waking up the next morning, they just asked themselves ...."How did I get in here?

I thought this thread would be about posting while drunk...


Note, most of the famous astronomers, Kepler, Galileo, Newton, were probably drunk when they came up with their discoveries.

I don't know about Newton & Kepler, but my guess is that Tycho Brahe was not quite sober either ;-)

Since Brahe's work was in the meticulously precise observation, measurement and recording of star and planet positions, I think it's a fair bet to say he did his work sober.

What on earth gives you the idea he'd be drunk?

I had no doubt regarding his meticulousity - I just made a joke - he did drink a lot - or so the story goes

He lost his nose in a duel with an equally sober nobel duellant ;-))

You know, ideas had while drunk are generally, in my experience, bad ideas. Some of them aren't, but I have a friend who spends time chemically altered on occasion, and she says that the important thing is to review your ideas again while sober, to make sure they still make sense. With that in mind, I would say categorically that the great ideas of science cannot come from those who are always drunk; among other things, they're expressed well enough so that sober people can understand them!

Yeah, the entire "hold my beer and watch this" scenario rarely works out favorably.

Not that I would know.

Well said !

Still needs work...jokes are suppose to be funny.

It's a little known fact that Albert's first attempt at general relativity
followed a night on the Schnapps when he came up with
E=M+4, this was later revised however.

How can you say you are already drunk....?

This is just one of my observations from my friends who went drunk.

a.You can't get the bottle or the glass put right in to your mouth.
b.You see people , wondering why they are "two" and the same..
c.When in a parking lot, you dont know where did you parked yor car, or you went to another parking lot and gone mad because you think your car was stolen.
d.You can't insert the key on the keyhole of your car.
e.You can't open the car , and gone mad by kicking it only to found out that it isnt your car , when the real owner comes out..
f.You woke up the next morning ..and wonder .. where am I?
g.You woke up the next morning..and wonder .. how did I get home?
h.You woke up the next morning .. and found yourself ..Naked and saw someone beside you ..and ask "What happened last night?"
