last week, i was at a party just down the street from my house, like a minute and a half drive's distance. because it was so close, i was planning to drive home and sleep in my own bed. as the night went on, i got fairly hammered. i was about to leave, thw owner of the house (also a girl whom i like) told me not to drive home, it wasn't worth the risk. i agreed, and fell asleep on her couch with no shoes on so i wouldn't get fucked with. i was asleep for about an hour only to wake up to her drawing on my face with a marker. so i decided, fuck you guys! i'm going home. after i pulled into my driveway,i sent her a text saying something along the lines of "what the fuck!? you tell me not to drive home drunk and to stay the night at your house, only to have me wake up with you drawing on my face? FUCK YOU. seriously." she tells me it wasn't her and the chill the fuck out. /rant.

who is wrong here? should i still be pissed at her (which i was, not anymore), or should she be pissed at me?

HELP ME NS!! gracias :)

some lose their brains when they drink heavily.

people need to take the proper steps BEFORE getting annihilated to make sure they make the right decision later in the night-- ie: giving someone else their keys, calling a cab, not driving to begin with...etc. But I don't judge this kid for doing what he did, it was a poor decision and everyone makes poor decisions. Hopefully he won't make that decision again, but the judgment in this thread is just irritating. No one is perfect, and everyone has regrets.

I would also like to add that Kantian ethics are not valid just because the problem at hand involves one's life

Not gettin mad at you for drivin under the influence cuz I do it all the time from my friends place to mine its like a minute drive and its all residential road. I  tink your a fuckin idiot however for messin up your chances of gettin lucky. I mean, from what you've said, I picture you sleeping in a quiet room on a couch and waking up to some girl drawing on your face. From the sounds of it, it was just you and her meaning she was tryin to flirt with you, but instead of playin along and turnin it into somethin, you pulled a 3rd grade move and got into a fit. Then to top it off you drop a GIRL an angry mesage when you got home to prove you made it ok and to let her know you got a little butthurt. So yeah your in the wrong, for getting upset over nothing

IF YOU KNOW that you are so irresponsible when you drink, then for the love of god stop drinking.

i dont give a fuck whether youre always in fights when youre drunk or driving when youre drunk or doing other fucked up shit. you know that this happens when you drink, so just stop drinking.

thats not an excuse. i could drop two bottles of vodka right now and shoot someone right before it kicks in and i get a "get-out-of-jail"-card. similar stuff.

i too like to drink every once in a while, but going so far that you dont know what youre doing is irresponsible when youre aware of past incidents.

being drunk shouldnt be the excuse it is for various stuff, including murder. at some point in your life you know how you react under alcohol and if you still go over the limit and do some stupid shit, youre responsible for it.

yeah but no one gets a get-out-of-jail free card for killing someone while under the influence.

i am not a lawyer and i find it hard to deal with legal topics in english since idk all the words, but in germany and austria there is for sure the possibility to avoid jail even for major crimes when being an alcoholic for example
