I wouldn't say different, rather I'm a bit more.
More loud, more giggly, more confident, more bolshy, more horny, etc, etc.
I shushed a couple of guys at the theatre last night and my boyfriend joked that I should be careful because they were bigger than him, my response was, 'That doesn't mean that I can't take them.'
I don't drink. Been clean and sober for 28 yrs and counting. I found there was more to life than just drowning all my sorrows away.
Contrary to what is posted in my profile, when drunk I become super super friendly and starting giving everyone big hugs and complimenting everyone in sight.
I become more open and free, say what I think and have a tendency to do crazy things. Dance on the bar like I'm in Coyote Ugly, switch outfits in the ladies room with my girlfriends, give my bra away, kiss girls! Ok I just celebrated my 40th!!
Never have drank that much but the few times I have been legitimately drunk the mouth spoke well before the brain engaged and the clothes seemed to come off easier. A lot easier.
♫♫♫No, no, no, no I don't do that no more. It turns me into such a sleazy whore♫♫♫
As much as I get bolder when I have been drunk (Cant remember the last time I was)... I am also generally quieter... If I am drinking hard liquor or beer, I am usually in a jovial mood, with lots of laughter... If I am drinking wine... I just become hornier and more amorous...
I wouldn't say different...my general bubbly disposition just intensifies. I laugh a lot, get a little louder, want to dance and flirt more, etc.
I'm also a touch more emotional and prone to crying after I've drank quite a bit. Or so my friends say, at least!
I think I am the same drunk or sober... Fun loving all the time, but don't get drunk often...
I'm definitely not a different person. My behaviour does change though.
I become giggly and laugh at stupid things and start to play practical jokes on people. One day Laura, Gemma and I were playing strip Scrabble and I went to the loo and flushed the Z down the toilet. I thought it was funny at the time but Laura made me buy a new set just for a Z. Now we've got two Scrabble sets with one completely useless (unless you don't mind not having the Z.
I am into wine. I have it most often with food. Depending on which kind I choose to drink for pleasure, however, it will help determine my mood. But I like to use wines that chill me out more and relax me. That makes me more genuine and passionate. So it does amplify a side of me I wish to elevate at the time.
I don't drink. But surely one would not poison one's body just for the sake of it? There must be some immense benefit, something beyond the teenage need to flaunt authority, to break rules and experiment with grown-up things that clings on into adulthood...
Everyone is different when drunk. It's a mind altering drug, that alcohol stuff. It can be harmless fun, I'm sure, but some people get violent; others drive their car, or they say things their sober selves would never dream of saying. Hence, they hurt people in lots of ways. And many get addicted. A friend of mine is alcoholic. He lost his job, his wife and kids. He lost his health and his self-respect. Yet he cannot stop drinking alcohol, cannot break the addiction. It will kill him soon. He is certainly different when drunk. I can vouch for that.
I don't like the taste, the numbness, and don't enjoy the feeling of 'out of control', however slight. And, to be honest, I just don't get it. I like being me, don't need to oil the wheels, to loosen up. I am often surrounded by tipsy, even drunk people and find myself feeling sorry for them. Sorry for their impending hangovers; sorry for the sad lives I imagine they must lead in order to find pleasurable escape in their present pathetic condition.
Drinking to excess is somehow seen to be clever, but it isn't. Chimps eat fermenting fruit and fall out of trees, probably tell their chimpy banana-breathed mates how they got 'hammered', 'went on a right bender', 'got pissed as a sloth'. Come on, Humanity, surely it's time to evolve?
That was a light-hearted question that received a heavy-handed response. But I offer no apology. Drinking alcohol is potentially as serious as snorting cocaine. We need to be responsible, take it seriously and stop talking like thirteen year-olds.

Are you kidding? I'm a different person when I go too long without eating. Pump me full of booze? Yeah, I'd say I change a little.
Drinking makes my clothes fall off. Of course they come off pretty easy anyway.
I stopped drinking about 18 to 20 years ago. No problem, just liked the influence I had over others that were drunk.
It is actually more fun being sober around people that have been drinking.
I'm awfully silent when drunk!! You won't hear me spilling secrets or any of my escapades.
NO, I am me all the time....I am quirky and talk alot, drinkin just make me either sleepy or more open..Definitely not different.
The TxPrincess
Always a princess, always me...Kisses
not really ... i talk a little more and i'm a little hornier but when I'm sober I talk a lot and I'm usually pretty horny anyway lol
I don't drink very often but when I do I become this really snarky, depressed bitch.
Yes, I just laugh and want to dance!
Wouldn't know, I don't drink, never have and doubt I ever will.
As for others, alcohol definitely effects ones judgements and actions so you could say that people are different, how different depends on the individual.
Sadly my personality does change when I am drunk ...I no longer care what is appropriate ...so now as a mother I have chosen not to drink excessively and rarely have a drink.
i am boring... same person when drunk... just high on alcohol :P
Most difinitely, I'm more likely to get myself in trouble.
More confident, bolder, and more awesome lol
I become suave, sophisticated, debonair, charming, cool, handsome, funny, attractive, witty, sparkling, elegant, confident, eloquent, smooth, fluent, charismatic, engaging, interesting and sexy.
