Who has a funny story of someone being drunk on purim?
March 13, 2014 4:51 am at 4:51 am #1063151TheGoqParticipantMy friend got so drunk he got into his car and killed three pedestrians oh wow was that a riot!
March 17, 2014 2:12 am at 2:12 am #1063152octopiMemberThe Goq: I’m not sure if you’re being sarcastic or not, but i hope you’re not serious. that’s terrible! was your friend injured?
March 17, 2014 3:50 am at 3:50 am #1063153TheGoqParticipantIt was all in jest but with a point there are serious consequences to getting drunk, high or buzzed, Baruch Hashem I have no friend who drove while intoxicated.
March 18, 2014 6:37 am at 6:37 am #1063155sm29ParticipantSometimes there can be serious consequences. And sometimes people wind up somewhere and don’t know how they got there
March 21, 2014 3:29 am at 3:29 am #1063157ursketchingMemberby my purim seuda someone brought my uncle mayim acharonim in a shnapps glass because he couldn’t find the regular mayim acharonim and my uncle drank it!!!! we could not stop laughing
March 5, 2015 1:40 pm at 1:40 pm #1063160cozimjewishMemberOne year three of my brothers-in-law decided to have a competition at the seuda who could get drunk the first! It was really funny coz my two older brothers-in-law bullied the younger one into getting drunk first – they kept filling up his cup and convincing him to drink it, while they didn’t touch their cups! He got quite drunk and could not stop giggling, so my sister (his wife) stopped the “competition’ there, before he could get really drunk!
March 5, 2015 4:14 pm at 4:14 pm #1063161nfgo3MemberThe answer to the opening poster’s question is: “So far, nobody.”
But The Goq had a helpful response. Would it be funny if the pedestrians were all kids going to school? Pregnant women? YWN editors? The Goq? nfgo3?
March 5, 2015 10:59 pm at 10:59 pm #1063162🍫Syag LchochmaParticipantI thought Goq was making the point that there is nothing really funny about being drunk. Knowing Goq, I am sure he wasn’t trying to be funny. Right bud?
March 5, 2015 11:30 pm at 11:30 pm #1063163TheGoqParticipantRight on Syag (and btw nice to see you are still around) losing control of oneself to alcohol and or drugs can cause a lot of very serious problems if you wish to harm yourself that is your choice (but a poor one) but when u get drunk/drugged and harm others that is irresponsible and the consequences could be the worst hangover you will ever have.

March 6, 2015 1:18 pm at 1:18 pm #1063166nishtdayngesheftParticipantAs far as I understand, the inyan of drinking on Purim is to be happy, not funny.
Who says you have to be funny to be happy?
There are many posters here who seem happy, but are clearly not funny, certainly not intentionally.
BTW, I can say that I don’t know of anyone who drove on Purim after drinking enough alchahol that would impair their abilities ( we all had to read the tables in the permit books).
I am not saying it doesn’t happen. Even not on Purim, but I have never observed it, and I have observed much drinking.
