Drinking can be fun during the first few hours when the happy buzz kicks in. But things can get murky once you get past a certain threshold of inebriation.
This is usually when many people pass out or go on autopilot and do something they’ll regret the next day. The stories you’re about to read are more of the latter, where supposed merry intoxication turned unpleasant and embarrassing.
These short accounts are responses to a post by TikTok user dietcokegirl222. She asked for the worst thing people do while they are drunk. According to her, she did this to feel better about herself.
Read through this list and see if you’ve been in any of these sticky situations.

Tripped over a guys foot and his prosthetic leg came off, I then grabbed it and tried to put it back on for him like I knew what I was doing
We were tossing glow sticks down the street and I launched one about 30 feet away and looked down in my hand only to realize the glow stick was there and I actually threw my brand new iPhone
got drunk at my friend’s house and accidentally got into his parents bed with them

Many see alcohol as a truth serum that helps them bring out their “real” selves. This isn’t the case, according to licensed therapist Jennifer Worley.
“The behaviors and emotions exhibited while intoxicated are just a part of a person’s broad spectrum of feelings and reactions,” she told Healthline. “They don’t necessarily represent their core character or values.”
I threw up on a goat, and then cried for hours. I went back first thing the next morning and gave her a bath I felt so bad
I broke into a museum and passed out and woke up to a tour guide telling me she’s calling the police while the whole tour group took pictures
I went into the restaurant/bar that I used to work at and started seating customers for dinner
In terms of peeling back the layers of one’s personality, drunkenness is more of a revelation and characterization of what’s happening internally.
“While it is difficult to conclusively say that someone is more real when under the influence, it is safe to say that what you see is a more accurate portrayal of what is going on inside of that person,” family and marriage therapist Dr. Joel Touchet said.
Tried to hide from a cop under a couch that was not high enough to crawl under (so the couch was just on top of my body and hanging off the floor)
I crashed a very important wedding. Didn’t realize I was standing at the altar and asked the priest who died
Tried to go upside down on stripper pole and fell on my head and blacked out in front of 100 people (two nights ago)
Traded my car/apartment keys and wallet for a box of orange flavored cupcakes
Got kicked out of a concert- carried out by security by all 4 limbs even. Tried to sneak back in but they grabbed me. My best friend found me balling my eyes out in the clutches of a homeless woman
Not me but my friend snuggled up with a homeless man in the alley outside of the bar. Got inside his cardboard box and everything.
Alcohol abuse is known to affect one’s physical health in a myriad of ways. But as Worley revealed, it can also cause lasting behavioral and cognitive changes.
“Over time, these changes can contribute to personality shifts, especially if the brain damage is significant,” she explained. “Moreover, long-term alcohol misuse can exacerbate or lead to mental health disorders, which can further influence personality.”
walked into my neighbors LIVING ROOM (uninvited) to say hi because I noticed that their lights were still on. On a Monday night.
Got black out drunk, woke up in some random guys dorm room after having thrown up on his Christmas tree, he'd been sitting watching me sleep, and proceeded to show me his coin collection
My friend woke up with a tortoise in her bag and a whole pizza cramed in her purse.
I was a police reported missing person for 8 hours when in reality I was asleep outside of my favorite pizza shop…needless to say my friends are terrible at hide and seek
don't remember this but posted a voice note to my story saying I'm lost and scared asking for help everyone thought I was kidnapped police where called search stated..I was in my shed
puked on the stairs at a bar and then proceeded to fall down the same stairs
thought i was a vampire and tried to bite everyone and ended up in hospital with doctors thinking it was psychosis
My BFF bites people when she gets drunk (one of the reasons that she hardly ever drinks) She was out with friends to a hen night 2 nights before the wedding and bit the bride-to-be on her arm, leaving a huge mark, poor bride was wearing a sleeveless dress. Make up covered most of it, but it was still visible.
walking downtown n i saw a house that i swore was an antique shop bc there were a ton of trinkets in the window so i walked in and started looking at everything but it was just some old ladys house
If you had stayed any longer, you would've gone on an adventure, far far away......
I did a water aerobics routine in the pool fully clothed while being shouted at by the parents to leave the house
Some people become aggressive after a few glasses of their favorite whiskey. Worley explains that such reactions are likely due to alcohol’s effect on the prefrontal cortex, the brain region responsible for regulating thoughts, emotions, and behavior.
She also points out that alcohol can amplify existing feelings of anger, stress, and anxiety, which can make some drinkers act belligerently.
Stumbled into a pizza shop, started working behind the counter, took their trash out to the dumpsters, got offended they wouldn’t give me free pizza
tried to explain synesthesia to the guy i liked and he said i reminded him of his schizophrenic uncle who stalked him
i wanted to show everyone how fast i could gallop, i galloped into the street and got hit by a car
at my sisters engagement party i got drunk and wanted to show my mom my chaturanga (yoga push up) and i slammed my chin into the floor and flashed everyone
Punched a parking garage wall bc I convinced myself I was the hulk. Broke my hand
woke up drunk to my lash lady saying “okay you’re lashes are done” and my car wasn’t even there which means I walked and still have no memory of going
I get this!! Drunk Nikki is usually was more responsible than sober Nikki.... Sober Nikki drinks irresponsibly..... Drunk Nikki makes sure to eat healthy put my wallet away etc
Moderate consumption is encouraged among those who enjoy the occasional drink. The National Library of Medicine defines it as a maximum of one beverage per day for women and a cap of two drinks for men.
In terms of measurements, one drink is equivalent to one bottle of beer, a glass of wine, or a shot of liquor.
Screamed across the bar at a 50 yr old man calling him an outfit repeater bc I had seen him the weekend before in the same outfit
Woke up in the middle of my local lake with a homeless guy and scuba gear on with no memory of why or how I got there
performed umbrella by rihanna on a frat stage after a party and then was asked who I knew and to leave
jumped out of a moving car because I was being forced to go home
Handed a bouncer a Barnes & noble gift card instead of my ID and then tried to fight him when he didn’t let me in
i though a homeless man was frank gallagher and started harassing him for a picture
My limit moves..... Some days I can drink a pint for breakfast... And barely feel it.... Other days a half pint will mess me up!!! No idea why
Load More Replies...I enjoy an adult beverage or two, but never in my life have I gotten black out drunk. I would be so worried not being in control of myself and my actions. I simply do not understand the appeal of it, not to mention the dangers.
The 1st time i woke up safely in my bed with no memory of how i got home from the bar was the last time I drank.
Load More Replies...I once woke up slumped against the wall of the post office in a grim reaper costume.
Makes sense. Fitting place for the Reaper. Source: former postal worker here.
Load More Replies...I sat outside my dorm and cried because I couldn’t get in. I was pulling the door instead of pushing.
A cop cut me a break by taking me to the drunk tank (no future court date) instead of jail. I then proceeded to "escape" the drunk tank, was arrested again and booked into jail. Which was located next door to the drunk tank.
I adopt stray cats when lifting liquid weights. First one i found outside a pub, the locals assured me he was homeless, he was so haggard but spent most of the night in my arms so i took newly named Mr Biggles home, only to have him checked at the vet the next day and had to have him put to sleep. At a different pub slightly out of town there was this big ginger named "Chuck Norris" because of his big uh.. Well anyways. He liked to dunk them in people's drinks and food, spoke to the pub owner and apparently he's been dumped their twice. Got me a big orange derp with my draught that day !
I stopped drinking at 24. I tried to fit in at college and did drink some but I was out one night and it hit me that I was not having fun. I don't like the taste of alcohol, I don't like feeling like c**p the next day, and I definitely don't like feeling out of control.
Load More Replies...Spent an entire night in a gay men cuddle-pile. Is not gay. Just doesn't have any homophobia whatsoever. Nevertheless, waking up cuddled by strangers was odd.
The post title says "hilarious" but I think a lot of these aren't really funny at all.
The last thing I could recall before I woke up was crying to a cop to drive me home (which she did) and telling her I lost all my stuff (wallet, keys, phone, etc.). When I woke up I was not at home, thankfully I was on the couch at my best friend’s apartment. My shirt was on upside down (not inside out, I had put my body through the head hole). She told me she had to come down to get me because I couldn’t handle the timing of her buzzing me in, no memory of this. We called and text my phone and they gave us their address to come get it. It was in a guy’s apartment in a building I swear I’ve never been in. Too awkward to even ask when I left it there or why. Continued the hunt for my belongings throughout the entire next day, recovered most of it. This is one of many blackout drunk stories I have. I drank hella hard from age 15 to 23ish. I rarely drink now (maybe once a year) but a single glass of wine gets me quite buzzed.
One time in my early 20s, some friends and I were staying at a pretty nice hotel (don't remember where) and in the evening one of my guy friends gets into to the pool and he's relaxing for a bit, but then he shouts (to no one in particular) "why isn't anyone else using the pool?!?" No one else was using the pool because you're paddling about in the water fountain, Chris.
I am an alcoholic and I have never been this drunk. What is wrong with people? I guess I pet a bee one time?
The night after our high school graduation party, a friend told me that a girl told him that I told her that I thought she had nice t i t s. I could never look her in the eyes again...
Sounds to me like you never looked her in the eyes to begin with. 😁
Load More Replies...Not much of a drinker anymore, I'm down to three glasses of wine on our weekly karaoke night, but in my prime, whoa nelly. I recall trying to pay for a cab (kids ask your parents) with cigarettes. Not the full pack, mind you, just the individual smokes, about five. Figured they cost me money, so they're the same as cash, right? Driver gently disagreed and my soon-to-be hubby paid up for me. Also recall wandering through the local graveyard with my fellow drunken friend (RIP Kim). We just weaved our way up the hill, checking dates on the gravestones and saying, "Oh, he was so young!". We were too drunk to do math and had no clue what year it was, so everyone was just too darn young! Silly times.
Stole a bunch of garden gnomes and placed them all over my lounge room. Was very surprised to see them the next morning.
Today 9 June I have been sober 9 years!! I really got myself into bad situations and places when I drank.
In my younger days I woke up on the couch at a house I'd never been to with a pretty girl asleep on me. I'd ended up at a cookout being hosted by a rather well known member of a Mexican gang in LA. I was a very very white young woman. Apparently I made everyone cupcakes, administered 1st aid to someone, told everyone to drink lots of water, made sure someone set out a asprin, and asked if they had any KISS cds. The girl asleep on me had gone through a bad breakup and said I held her while she cried and told her I was her grandma now. We're still friends.
84 reasons to watch your drinking and know your limits! I was at a local convention once, and fairly new to drinking, so I had too much beer and wine and then went on a tear. I don't know what I did, and my friends are mum about it, which is probably for my own sake.
Went out of my apartment for an unknown reason, locking myself out. Walked around barefoot, knocking on random doors but no one answered. Cut my feet up pretty badly on random roots and things. Thought I could climb up go my second floor balcony. Started raining, making the railing(s) slippery. Fell down from between the first and second stories, landing in a sticker bush. Ended up with a sprained ankle, badly lacerated foot, and bruises all over.
Remember watching my drunk friend p**s all over his tv and brand new ps2
Made skittles vodka (dangerous s**t) and took it to a bike rally. Danced like an eejit all night, then got back to our tent and cried because I couldn't get my jeans off. Mainly because I was still wearing my DMs. My lovely husband got me to bed safely, but hasn't let me live it down.
Mines pretty mild but I remember being really embarrassed at the time...I was a plus one at a bonfire party. We were allowed to go in the house to use the bathroom and I proceeded to walk thru and break their screen door. I offered to pay for it they were gracious and said it wasn't a problem. I never went back even though I was invited again lol
An ex called me in the middle of the night pleading that I needed to come where she was. When I arrived, there was nothing wrong. She was just sitting there with her date and very, very drunk. He and I were both "WTF?" I took her aside and told her that she had just used up her last "Get Out of Trouble Free" card from me. I'm told he never asked her out again.
I feel so sorry for the homeless people in these who are dragged into pathetic dramas or end up trying to look out for someone. They have it so bad already, they don't need the extra c**p 😞
I’ve never drank before (underage), but there was one time when I was in the hospital (severe allergy) I was super tired, to the point where I was delirious, and according to my mother I said very random things to the nurse, like for one I trailed off about how I liked the nurse’s ponytail (she wasn’t wearing one) and when she told me about it I had no memory of saying any of it
