"Knee-walking drunk" is hardly new.

 
Nabb1 [TotalFark] 2007-12-13 06:11:20 PM  
"Knee-walking drunk" is one thing, but it's not as bad as "grab onto the grass to keep from falling off the face of the Earth drunk."

 
adiabat [TotalFark] 2007-12-13 06:11:36 PM  
Say what you want about the guy, but I'll bet he was fun to drink with.

adiabat: fun to drink with.

Unfortunately, some folks think that qualifies him for the presidency.

I think Ulysses S. Grant set the precedent for it.

I prefer the term "snot slinging"...

Tequila shot AC?

 
willywanka 2007-12-13 06:29:13 PM  
I prefer T-Rex drunk. Where your arms are glued to your sides at the elbows and the forearms are just dangling in front of you, and you are just staggering around awkwardly making "hurrrr" noises.

 
Nabb1 [TotalFark] 2007-12-13 06:36:26 PM  
TotalFark: We know drunk.

Snailassed drunk.
You wake up and have to retrace your last steps with a trail of secretions, only to find you forgot your shell, and have to go back, then forget what you returned for, and still are attracted to the scent of beer.

 
Born2late [TotalFark] 2007-12-13 07:07:36 PM  
I guess that explains his brain damage. Well that and the cocaine.

I'm betting there are a lot of born agains who where alcohol and drug abusers.

 
Roman Fyseek [TotalFark] 2007-12-13 07:46:46 PM  
Knee-walking drunk ,indeed.

Hasselhoff drunk is the new knee-walking drunk.

 
TheDumbBlonde [TotalFark] 2007-12-13 07:49:32 PM  
The best part of being a functional alcoholic these days, is that there are always a couple of Kennedys hanging around in worse shape.

That's a pretty low bar you're setting for yourself.

I have been 'face plant' drunk in NOLA a few times.

 
Sharkface217 2007-12-13 08:10:15 PM  
But what of his rumored cocaine usage?

 
Gonz 2007-12-13 08:11:11 PM  
I am on my way to join the Blackout Brigade as I type this.

Nabb1: "grab onto the grass to keep from falling off the face of the Earth drunk."

The best kind. A close second is "time travel and come to hugging the toilet and crying 4 hrs in the future drunk"

 
beoswulf 2007-12-13 08:16:10 PM  
what's his fark id?

 
Boobies!!! 2007-12-13 08:17:36 PM  
Laura-marrying drunk.

 
Philip J. Fry [TotalFark] 2007-12-13 08:18:28 PM  
I've been "crawl across the grass on my stomach until I bumped into a tree to use as leverage for standing up" drunk.

In a demented-but-privileged, overgrown frat boy sort of way? "Next round's on you, 'bat-boy'! Heh-heh." You kids have a swell time without me.

 
kirbeep 2007-12-13 08:23:02 PM  
Bush was a girl-drink-drunk. Here's tiny proof:

It's one thing to have vertigo when you're drunk, but it's a whole different level to have horizontigo.

 
Gonz 2007-12-13 08:25:52 PM  
Gonz: got the T-shirt.


Seriously.


Got the T-shirt.

 
The Onanist [TotalFark] 2007-12-13 08:29:00 PM  
Still, no word about his "blow" days...

 
FuriousGeorge945 2007-12-13 08:35:02 PM  
Well I'm glad he got over those youthful indiscretions when he turned... 40?

 
Churchy LaFemme 2007-12-13 08:41:55 PM  
It's not the drinking. It's the stupid, Stupid.

 
Kenny B [TotalFark] 2007-12-13 08:45:34 PM  
Amatuer!

 
thedarkshadow 2007-12-13 08:46:44 PM  
Or grass angels. Now, there's something I wish I could take back.

 
thisispete [TotalFark] 2007-12-13 08:52:25 PM  
Good for him, I say. Now if only he can go on an do something worthwhile with this life.

 
zerkalo 2007-12-13 09:24:50 PM  
Nice. His last remaining claim to moral authority is that he kicked the demon rum

sucked when he was on coke though, or jonesing for a bump and waking the whole damn neighborhood to see if anybody had connections/was holding... or so his old next door neighbor told me

 
SpyroChiro 2007-12-13 09:50:30 PM  
So is "Knee walking drunk" a rich boy euphemism for "raging alcoholic" or "Town drunk"?

 
Hang On Voltaire [TotalFark] 2007-12-13 09:52:50 PM  
I remember reading that he would get up the night after getting drunk and go jogging. God almighty all I want is Waffle House, a freezing cold house, my bed and a cheesy 80s movie.

 
Dr.Zom 2007-12-13 09:53:29 PM  
As in "knee-walking, knuckle-dragging, snot-slinging drunk?"

Subby needs to get out more.

Those things are also great while drunk.

Link (new window)

21 years? Seems a bit loose here. And if he really is a former drinker, why would you make even a light hearted joke that the people who mentions are no fun since they aren't drinkers...

/More lies....

"Alcohol can compete with your affections ... affections with your family, or affections for exercise," Bush told the ABC News interviewer Tuesday.

Sorry George, but this isn't going to going to convince us he's as much of an incompetent twat-fart as you are.

Alcohol is the least of Bush's problems.

He didn't snort cocaine he just wanted to see what it smelt like.

He didn't snort cocaine he wanted to know what it smelt like.
