The Eight Typical Drunk Alter Egos
Post Grad Problems

Drunk alter egos. Ashamed or proud of it, everybody has one. Whether it be a certain alcohol or the amount of it that induces the personality switch- it becomes more than apparent to others around you. Most drunk alter egos fall into one of these eight categories; if yours doesn’t, you might be doing something wrong.


1. The Over-Sharer.

The let me tell you my whole life story in five minutes, the crier, the open book, the please be quiet. Going into the bathroom with the intention of just fixing your lipstick, you walk out with a new best friend. As you're waiting at the bar for a drink, you take it upon yourself to introduce yourself to the stranger on the left. The next thing you know, you're pointing fingers at the blonde across the room and explaining how big of a jerk your ex-boyfriend is. There is a strong possibility thirty random individuals know more about you then your best friend does.

2. The Food Fein.

Two drinks deep and the only thing on this person's mind is FOOD. Forget making it to the bar, this chick is determined to make it to the nearest pizza place. While ingesting her meal she'll probably say something along the lines of, "screw the calories," or "I deserve this." Odds are she would rather hook up with her buffalo chick pizza, so just let it happen.

3. The Narcoleptic.

All it takes is one good look at this person. You know when this person is about to go down and when it does, location doesn't matter. You'll find them face first in their drink, a bench on the street, or on the couch inside the bar.

4. The Big Spender.

Everybody loves the big spender. This person is willing to spend endless money-which they probably don't have- on drinks for everyone. "Rounds of shots for everyone!" is probably a typical phrase for them. Although, when they wake up in the morning and check their bank account they usually regret being so generous.

5. The Kanye.

Basically, this is the person who determines their self worth on the amount of compliments they receive throughout the night. If you're telling a story, they'll probably chime in and tell a personal story that has no relevance other than shifting the attention onto them. They'll probably ask you a million times if they look okay- not because they're insecure, but because they want to be told how good they look. Don't fret over this person, they're just drunk.

6. The Mean Drunk.

If you're a mean drunk, well, you really need to work on that. Arguably, it's not that fun to go out with and your friends probably wince at every shot you take. You might think it's funny to pick fights and insult people. News flash: it's not that funny. If you find yourself constantly apologizing for your behavior the morning after a tequila Thursday, maybe you shouldn't participate in tequila Thursdays anymore?

7. The Vanishing Drunk.

This is the person who promises to stick with the group, and then never does. Ever. This person loves to say things like, "I'm just going to say hi to a friend," or "I'll be right back, stay here." Twenty minutes have passed now and they are still no where in sight. You don't really worry about this friend too much because their wandering tendencies are normal and they're bound to pop up again.

8. The Good Time.

If you're a few shots deep and are able to maintain a normal fun demeanor, I applaud you. People love to be around you when you're out. You're probably a little goofy and make others laugh. You keep your friends in line, without adopting the "mom" title. Your eclectic group of drunk friends idolize your drunk ways. Never change- you are greatly appreciated.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
