I seem to be hearing that a lot recently as an excuse for someone's actions and I don't understand how people think that is their get out of jail free card.

I spend a good bit of time at the local casino (more than I should probably, meh....) and a guy got tossed out for what was apparently the last time as security told him if he ever came back he would be arrested for trespassing.

That happened around 11:00 one night and I was there the next day around 2:00 (I know) and sure enough he came back in wanting to talk with a manager. I was surprised the conversation took place on the floor and not in an office, but his excuse was he was drunk.

Keep in mind he proclaimed it like he was proud of it or at least expecting them to understand and side with him. They of course tossed him back out quickly. I just don't understand how someone thinks getting drunk makes them not responsible for their actions.

Extended family member who got caught cheating on his wife explained "I was drunk, it's not my fault". Really?

I've heard this a lot lately and wonder if anyone here subscribes to the theory that it isn't your fault if your shit faced?

I dont prescribe to the its not my fault because I was shit faced, but I do prescribe to the apologize and explain my actions because I was drunk. I dont think its an excuse, but it makes sober me feel better about it.

And for me it is usually being more opinionated and run my mouth. Never kicked out of anyplace or fights. Although, the time I told Jarrod from Subway that he was still fat at Ceasars back in the day his "entourage" wanted a piece of me or when I purposely pissed on Kirk Herbstreits leg at a bar in Lincoln, its ok I was drunk.

I still accept fault, but clearly 2 things I would not have done had I been sober.
