I have read on this board that many people here don't like the effects of alcohol.
I find in the right time and place alcohol is the best lubricant for me to enjoy myself.
As some of you may know I am in Ireland and a number of years ago I went to New York.
About an eight hour flight and I had 13 of those single serving bottles of wine on the flight.
A taxi ride into the city left our stuff at the hotel straight into Time Square at night with all the lights going and crowds everywhere.
Hit a couple of the bars and had more beers then I can remember.

There is a picture of me drunk in a bar in Spain a few years ago the girl was just with a random group I got talking to.
I don't feel autistic when drunk or maybe everybody else just comes down to my level.

When I drink I become extremely talkative and dominant the conversation, talking predominantly about myself and/or making ret*d statements with/to anyone. It's really fun and I require alcohol to be remotely social.
I guess it's a good thing I don't get too carried away. I've only been drunk twice; only have been 'really social' twice. XD
This doesn't mean that I am good at socializing when drunk though.

That's a lot of it, NT processing speed is slowed down when they're drunk, but it also numbs those inhibitions that make me hesitant to speak my mind, for fear of being seen as weird, or offending those around me. And if we're all blasted and I say something inappropriate, not only are the others less likely to take offense, none of us are likely to remember later that I even said it.

Alcohol also has the added benefit for me of caring a lot less what other people think, or of analyzing my own behavior so much. Which could very well mean that people may think I'm just as weird but I'm inclined to care much less and perhaps not even notice as much.

"until you end up staggering into a car"
Alternatively
"Until you drown in your own vomit"
Insert any number of horrific self inflicted injuries resulting from alcohol induced delusions of superhuman prowess
And finally
"Until you become dependent on it to function socially"
Im sure I dont need to add that im not a recreational drinker. I do however smoke which is another thing entirely (hacks up a sizeable chunk of bronchial tissue)
I never said it was wise or a good idea I just said it was fun.

I've been drunk once... I kept singing some stupid song about being drunk, and I said something really stupid about something my friend told me once. Then I felt sick afterwards. I wasn't actually sick, but I sure felt like I was going to be. Plus whatever we were drinking tasted horrible. We had to mix it with something else. First with Coca Cola, then apple juice, then lemonade... It was gross. I don't recommend it
