How do I brag if you close th thread

I had a theory that any thread with drunk in it would close, and it did ( I'm at work! Anyone else...? ). Just wanted to brag about my superior intellect.

Honestly, I think this is a good call on the part of the mods. Stuff like this is worse than an OT poll in my opinion.

I agree (nota bene, because its unlikely to happen again, AB!). My own "I'm at work" parody was (hopefully) the last straw that brought down the MODHAMMER!

Toe...your theory is flawed. The "I'm married! (and not drunk)" thread is still open.

On behalf of everyone, Tom, we thank you!

I got drunk once in my life. And we're talking about barely-conscious-puking-up-some-black-stuff-at-five-in-the-morning-drunk. That was enough. Thank you very much.

Amazing what a Long Island Ice Tea, 3 double-shots of Electric Kamikazes, 3.5 beers, and an empty stomach will do to a guy.

I don't recommend it.

I know, I was hoping no one would notice and I thought it was unfair to purposely get that thread closed.

The phrase "not drunk" is fundamentally different from the just-plain-word "drunk". The concept of drunkeness is negated.
