My Kind of Drunk!
All this German man wanted to do was fly home for the holidays with enough spirits to get him through another goddamn Christmas with his family. But when the 64-year-old fella had to switch planes, he became apprised of new airport rules which prohibit passengers from carrying on large bottle of liquor without paying a fee.
Sure, he could’ve paid the fee. Or he could’ve tossed the bottle. But my man took the frat boy route, choosing to drink an entire bottle — two pints — of vodka before getting on the plane. And soon enough, he was neither able to stand nor function.
And that, folks, is the only way to fly.
(Actually, he didn’t fly — he was taken to the hospital by paramedics where he nearly died of alcohol poisoning, which won’t be a great story to tell his grandchildren for at least six months.)
Comments
I would question how it was even possible to drink two pints of vodka in one sitting, but then again, he is German.
