Ode to the binge drink

There has been much publicity lately on a new phenomenon that has become known as binge drinking , for some reason most of these articles are shrouded in a cloak of negativity and connotations as to imply that binge drinking is in some way “wrong” and “bad for you” . ya WHATEVER …I am the best looking , richest and better then everyone on a good binge drink – how is that bad ?

Sober fuckers .

As I sit at my desk on this fine morning, tongue stuck to the roof of mouth and feeling like I have been licking pool tables all night ………..and not overly convinced I have sobered up yet (fortunately my brain is to sore to analyse this at length and has to reallocate resources to trying to keep my contact lenses in my pip because my eyeballs are dehydrated) ….I am getting blinded by the fluorescent lights even though the amount of light penetrating the slits that were formerly recognisable as my eyes is miniscule at best …massive effort to keep my upper eyelids up really – feeling decidedly Asian this morning

Interesting ……….

So anyway …did you know ……………and I quote ……….. or maybe I made it up – I dunno I was drunk ……… “Half of adult New Zealanders in all walks of life believe it is socially acceptable to get drunk” …… pretty fucking advanced nation that…. well all of the adult south Africans at this desk think that not only is it socially acceptable but its goddamn important …..I bet its also socially acceptable over there to be an unmarried 30 year old female (with no joint bank account or repetitive exposure to the missionary position……hmmm …might have to move ) …on that note however ….. I thinks its time we had a good sit down and reclassified a couple more activities as “social acceptable behaviour” ….like public stoning of middle management (Monday through Thursdays ) for example

~my breath is making me nauseous~


I read (in the “you” ……that bible of information …that resource of intellect) that some 21year old Mexican chugged 50 shots of tequila in a down down competition and died ….well that is just stupidity really – know your capacity dumb fuck …..take a vomit break….. go get a pie .

Some doctor guy went on to say that it is “rare to drink yourself to death in one sitting, but does happen” ………..well obviously not in one sitting ……..*duh*…...no one sits for that long….. Every now and then you have to get up and do *britney hair* and *horns* and the *the sprinkler* . Anyway I think its comforting to know that when looking into suicide there is another option…its important to have choices …..Cutting your wrists is really sooooo eighties . Doctor guy also said alcohol related deaths are more often as a result of drunk driving and drowning (or the combo maybe ??? ……like if you drive your car into the swimming pool and drown )

Binge drinking is classified as 5 or more alcoholic drinks at one sitting at least once a week , I pondered this while opening my 3rd bottle of wine …wondering do they mean 4 or 5 different beverages at one time (and would one use a funnel to do this simultaneous consumption ) or is it 5 bottles of wine drunk consecutively over the aforementioned sitting ??? such hard questions I though to myself while affectionately patting the wine bottle .


~Just plugged myself into my dialysis machine~

Apparently “It is never okay to get drunk." – but what if it’s a Friday and you are at after work drinks – and the beer is free – surely its okay then ??? I mean ……free beer …….they are asking for it ..its like a big ass flashing neon sign “GET DRUNK NOW ”


And anyway the human body produces its own supply of alcohol naturally on a continuous basis, 24 hours a day, seven days a week – so actually the way I see it ….. I am just helping the body out …eeeeeeaaasing the load really …….letting the body concentrate on more important things…………………. like cleaning out my liver and spleen


Effects of binge drinking

(apart from becoming ridiculously good looking .and rich ……and better than everyone)

~gag~

1.
Excess toxic to brain, liver, nerves ,heart and most organs …...may lead to brain damage (so….. I can still get a job in middle management ) – liver / heart failure (what are transplants for *duh*) …..apparently each session causes permanent damage ……….so does banging my head repetitively on my desk every time middle management utters some “pearl of wisdom ”

2.
Long term abuse causes acute pancreatitus - the pancreas (apparently we have this organ called a pancreas that produces hormones like insulin ……who knew? ) swells causing pain and vomiting (at least you will be fabulously thin although slightly uncomfortable – although being a binge drinker you should be no stranger to projectile vomiting ) and then wastes away

3.
memory problems particularly short term (this I think might come in rather handy in fact…

I mean at work …

middle management : *grunt*……*wild hand gesture* why didn’t you make deadline? *snort*
prodigy : Well you see I am a binge drinker and it affects my memory so I forgot ……..
prodigy :.whats a deadline?
prodigy :.No I don’t remember calling you the genetically mutated offspring of a retarded plankton with the mental capacity of rocking horse poo ?

And also ……. there is that incident with the Argentinean rugby player that I would rather forget …should have drunk more

4.
Inhibits production of testosterone , needed for erection (hey…. I don’t have a penis …well not my own anyway ….so this affects me how??? ) ……… diminishes penis size (once again…. no penis) . Upsets the balance of male and female hormones in body ( would probably account for that moustache I am growing )

The effects of binge drinking depends largely on what you weigh , if you are male or female and your tolerance level ….. so if you are a fat ass male with a high tolerance you can binge drink the crap out of it ……..which you probably have to because you’re male and fat and probably have no friends

So are you a binge drinker ?
