The sober thread
Have you ever been that guy? You know, that guy? The only sober person in the room? I know I have, and it's so awkward you don't even know. Everyone just looks so dumb, but you know that if you excuse yourself from the madness everyone will take it the wrong way. "He doesn't love us anymore!" "Let's go get him!" And the madness just escalates from there.
Any sober-guy stories you guys have to share?
I was once invited to join my brothers' friends to a bar and they needed a ride, so I had to stay sober because I was the driver. Don't want to end up drunk driving.I ended up driving 75 on a 50 at one point, and they were pretty impressed with that.
Apparently, I have been declared banished.
I'm never going to come into this thread unless I'm itchin'.
I don't really have a story, but I have a friend that makes nervous as hell if he gets really drunk. The only way to counteract this is if I am also just as or more drunk than him. Our friends don't really like us when this happens.
I can't be drunk around people I don't like anymore.
We all get along fine, but they people who drink little/don't drink don't like it. I don't blame them, but it rarely gets out of hand anymore because we are all getting old and lame.Originally Posted by Sylvie
No real stories that I remember, but I was definitely that sober guy until fourth year of University I believe when I started drinking. So 21 or 22 years old when the drinking age here is 19. I've been the designated driver more times than I can count and I grew to understand just how awesome it is to have one when I started drinking, because no one was as willing as I was to stay out all night sober and drive people home when it was all said and done, so once I started drinking I took a lot of cabs.
Actually, I do have one story. I was out at a bar with a few friends including my best friend. I think this was after I started drinking, but I just decided to stay sober that night anyway. Towards the end of the night, and after my best friend had had the majority of a couple of pitchers to himself my sister called needing a ride home from a friends. We left to go get her, but he ended up puking out the window part of the way there. Nothing like pulling over at 2-2:30am and waiting about half an hour for your best friend to pass out in the passenger seat so you can get going without him puking all over the side of the car again. Eventually we got him home and my sister and I went back to our house. It was my parents car though so I made sure to give it a good hosing off when I got home around 3:30. The things you do for friends.
I'm always the sober guy because i can't drink. usually that just means I'm always the designated driver.
Also I'm only 18 so there is that.

I've been the only sober one many times. It's never been a problem. In fact, I'm always the hero because I can drive everyone to get food.
What does that have to do with anything? I'm not even 20 and I'm pretty sure my liver's about to blow.

While it may be illegal to purchase alcohol for anyone under 21, it's perfectly okay to drink for a minor inside the privacy of their house with their parents present to supervise.

I have been the DD a few times. It's usually for chick friends and they're always cute when they drink because they are not me when they drink. I think my favorite time as DD was for my sister's 21st birthday party. She made our waiter all kinds of uncomfortable, insisting he sit down and allow her to hug him.
I gave him a really good tip.
