It's not funny that the guy was drunk driving, but he must've been super drunk to allow himself to get photographed like that. He's the ugliest woman I've ever seen.
I despise those who drive drunk. I don't see the point. I drink. I go out and drink. And I plan for it so that I do not have to drive. I don't understand the logic that makes some people think it's okay.
By the way, I was looking for I O! ;) You've been away too long.
By the way, I was looking for I O! ;) You've been away too long. HAHA...yeah. It was still early in the morning when I saw this, so I wasn't quite coherent. :P
I also don't get what makes people think it's okay to drink and drive. I guess they figure they are sober enough or something, but IMHO, you shouldn't drive if you've had ANY alcohol...period.
Nor should you ride a bike. You'd be amazed at the number of drunken bicyclists I see here.
Last night, I went to Applebee's and had one drink and then drove home. The drink was weak to the point that I could not taste any alcohol and the effects on my driving ability were non-existant. I know my body very well and I know how I react to alcohol. If I drink a wine cooler (or something else that's weak like that but the alcohol is apparent) quickly, then I feel some sort of weak buzz or warm feeling. If I am feeling any effect of alcohol, I will not drive. When I drink a lot, it is usally planned so that I'm either home already, within walking distance of where I will sleep that night, or I have a dd set up. I probably could drive buzzed, but I'll never find out because it's not worth it.
As for drunken bicycling, it's stupid and irresponsible but I view it in the same light as riding a motorcycle without a helmet. It's your funeral and no one else will likely be injured because of it. The main problem I have with those two activites is that a resonsible driver could be charged for vehicular manslaughter or some such other charge because of the rider's lack of resonsiblity. That and stupidity just really bothers me.
