Hey all I live in Australia and drinking is pretty much part of the culture. I've been drinking since I've been 17 till now (i'm 23). Anyway through my years of experience i've learnt how to control my drinking, like I know when i've had enough to have fun and not to much to throw up everywhere. But in my young days my friends and I were use to drink way over our limits and it would sometimes end up a mess but we have fun (we use to get up to a lot of stupid stuff). I believe being drunk is an excuse maybe not a good one and definately not good enough for the law, but as people have said already being drunk lowers your inhibitions which makes you do things you wouldn't do if you were sober but still want to do. The key word there was drunk, when you are sober you have reasoning between things you want to do and things you should or shouldn't do. When your drunk that reasoning may dissapear (thats why it's a bad idea to drink and drive) so in a sense the excuse of I was drunk is right because being drunk removes that reasoning.
