I think a film that gets drinking really really right is 'The Worlds End'.
Alice Pope-Terry agreed and the old weed hook up with special signal. dead on.😋
Thats because during filming the Actors had something they called the 13 stages of drunkness which kept them acting realistically as they got more and more pissed.
Leave it to the british
Leave it to Simon Pegg.
They really don't know how smoking pot works either. They think you take one small hit off a joint and go insane.
It depends of the weed. I have taken one small hit off a joint and go insane.
It can be like that when you have no tolerance and strong weed but usually that isn't the case in movies.
And showing what people see when they're high is way off base.
@Dive Dodge that just means you. Are smoking way to much and your brain got stuck in a thought loop thinking about one bad thing like omg everyone knows im high.... Try taking 1 hit an waiting 30 mins or get less potent weed i see it in my city all the time when old people try an smoke the new stronger strands of weed they just give up on good weed and smoke reggie or mid not knowing yall just smoking to much
I have a super low tolerance. One to two hits from my vape and I'm in outer space... (keep in mind I smoke top tier strains)
Okay but honestly it makes sense for Thor since that's really just how drinking games work in Scandinavia. Binge drinking is our culture man
Fucking A
Ström Duval Norse!!!
Nah bro christianity wins Jesus is op remember
Skål bois
Embarrassingly so, yes. Can't really see the point of drinking alcohol for the soul purpose of getting drunk. If you enjoy the taste, it's helps you relax and you stay responsible enough to not do something stupid, then more power to you.
Same thing with other drugs, do whatever you want to your own body for all I care, as long as you stay responsible for the consequences and don't fuck something up for others
No one is actually hallucinating in those scenes you show. They're seeing something completely real, but its so bizarre and unbelievable, that they look at their drink and wonder what the hell was put in it.
I was at a bar when a guy bought drinks for the entire bar for the remainder of the night. I know the staff as it's my local spot and he spent like 3 grand. So while it's extraordinarily rare, things like that do in fact happen in real life.
Also it's not "inconveniencing the bartender" and how you would do this as a bartender is simple... You put all drinks ordered after that point on the one person's tab, so it's actually easier than your normal job of having to keep track of different tabs, so it's not inconvenient, it actually makes things easier for them.
wow. u just pwnt this dude. so hard.
My first time ever at a bar on my 21st birthday, when i showed my ID this older lady (mid to late 50s) said she would pay for all my drinks. She lucked out cause i'm a stoner and don't really dont drink unless its a special occasion, i only rung up a 35 dollar tab.
I am, once again, late to a comment-party.
But you're right, and if this would happen when I worked at a bar, we'd keep his card and charge it every once in a while to clear the tab make sure he can pay for it.
ZombieWilfred also there are bells in some bars that you ring to indicate that your buying everyone a round.
In Thor, the line about making his ancestors proud was not in regards to drinking. It was in regards to fighting. They got into a drunken fight. Thor laid him out, but stated that he was strong (for a human).
Chris Marsh or at least courageous
I'm beginning to feel that Cracked will only hire people to work for them who have been severely traumatized by watching Pinocchio.
Ez, we were all severly traumatized by watching Pinocchio lmao
Oedipus complex??
I was traumatized. I couldn't tell a lie even to save my life. Took me years of therapy to break that barrier of guilt. Now I try to lie at least once a week, but it's hard.
If booze doesn't make you hallucinate, then how in hell did that homely gal at the end of the bar become beautiful at the end of the night?
@John Smith Beer goggles.
It's called lost inhibitions 🤣🤣🤣
In all those scenes where they hallucinate they look at their drink thinking that they must have drank something other than beer.
Either way, alcohol isnt a hallucinogen, its a depressant.
Simone Gainey That's the point
Even Absinthe isn't really hallucinogenic.
D. Barton ahh but the wormwood helps..
Chrizimon I the hallucinogenic thing probably goes back to absinth. you know, back when it was mixed with heroin. apparently some places I'm Scotland still do it in small small doses but it's hard yo find.
Okay let me tell you about the time I got into a "bar fight."
When I was like 19, my GF at the time went to Fordham U in the Bronx, and it was like her roommate's birthday or something so we all went out drinking. At the time, many of the bars would admit you as long as you had ANY form of ID, and since our school IDs didn't have a DOB listed, we were somehow able to drink at bars before we were 21.
Anyway fast forward to probably 12 am after we've all had at least a few shots. I'm coming from the restroom because I had to tinkle, and I notice this real Jersey Shore looking guy trying to hit on my GF who was obviously uncomfortable (and this was back in like 2006 before the show Jersey Shore was a thing, I think. Not relevant but I thought you'd want to know).
I walked right up to the guy and placed my hand on his shoulder and said something like "good try, but it's not gonna work on her." It kind of sounds like I was being a dick here, but realize that my GF was VISIBLY uncomfortable and had told him no thanks at least once.
So he gets up because he's all mad and shit, shoves me in the chest and says "You wanna take this outside, p---y?" It might not have escalated that quickly, but that's how I remember this thing from over 10 years ago.
So suddenly I snap awake, grab my fruity little pinkish cocktail that I had left, pound it, eat the lime INCLUDING THE PEEL, and slam the glass back down on the bar and I said "YEAH, LET'S TAKE THIS OUTSIDE." I don't think I had any intention to fight, but I felt like shouting at this guy at the time.
Bartender notices the commotion and waves to the bouncer/security guy as we're walking out, as if to alert their attention to something that's about to go down. I didn't want to ruin my friend's night out, so I get an idea.
I walk in front of the dude, open the door for him, and wave him forward like a gentleman. Like a "ladies first" kind of thing, I guess. He's rolling up his sleeves and talking trash.
He walks out in front. I close the door and walk back to my seat. When he finally realizes what's going on, the bouncer doesn't let him back in, and we just go on with our night.
I felt like Bugs Bunny would have done something like that, and I was super proud of my semi-drunk self.
KarmaJolt that's actually pretty damn smart
No idea why I fucking read this... But it's hilarious! :D
KarmaJolt yep, that's a thing probably. Everyone's got stupid stories. like that time I broke into a gas station for a cigarette . Wish there was a place where you could tell those stories. I got a million.
KarmaJolt 9/10 well written, cool story, but men don't tinkle. very weird word for a dude to use.
KarmaJolt That "jersey shore guy" was more likely a Staten Island guy or a Bayonne guy. As an actual resident of the Jersey shore, I can say that we don't like them either.
This video is just this guy trying to make everyone believe that he drinks
Kyle Foss this comment needs more likes
Metanoia on it.
Lmao
marco sanchez DAFAQ LOLZ
@@David-jn1gg 😂😂😂
I finished the video and have no idea what it was really about or what points it was trying to make on that subject.
Drunken Master II And that’s how it feels like to be when drunk.
Same. What a pointless waste of time
Ditto
Same too. Wtf is going on with this video
The beta was hard to watch. He wasn't funny at all. Yuck.
I always thought the whole hallucination thing was because they thought they got drugged or something
In this case cracked was actually half wrong. You can hallucinate from drinking too much beer. the cause won't be the alcohol but it might be a psychosis for instance. which would also explain why most of those guys were homeless. I'm not saying this is so common it should be in movies. Would be nice if cracked had mentioned it, for it could help those who get a psychosis to recognize it and get treatment.
The cause may well be alcohol. Chronic abuse of the substance absolutely affects the brain. And if someone is hallucinating due to alcohol, they definitely need to seek help.
www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3830167/
It doesn't really make any sense though as in all of those instances the events WERE happening. The joke isn't that booze makes you hallucinate it's that the person drinking THINKS it's making them hallucinate. Normally as an attempt to explain away events they perceive as being impossible. So movies don't think it makes people hallucinate. If you want to assign any message about the beliefs of movies to it then a more reasonable one would be that drunks are dumb.
I always heard you were supposed to see pink elephants.
CantonDem13 oh....i see whats goin on here.....forGIVE the inTRUsion.....proceed.
i still love that Billy Maddison scene
I always figured that the hallucination thing wasn't about the alcohol, but the thought that there might be something in the drink besides just alcohol
"No one drinks alcohol in Hollywood" you forgot Charlie Sheen
Shaun Jewell Mel Gibson, Richard Burton etc
I think it might be that noone just drinks alcohol in Hollywood they mix it with an assortment of other drugs.
Shaun Jewell
He also smokes 7gram rocks to the dome!!! Lol... holy sh!t he didn’t care...
@@anonb4632 Charlie Sheen forgot Charlie Sheen
Raj’s problem is not alcoholism. It’s probably some sort of anxiety. He had been shown to function on non-alcoholic beer until he realized it. Which also explains why he can function immediately rather than having to wait for the drug to take affect.
It's purely psichological
+
His whole point was really stupid because when people who are shy take substances usually lets them open up easier and gives them confidence
Exactly! What Raj has is called selective mutism (I think they even mention it at some point in the show), which is purely psychological, and alcohol probably just functions as placebo for him. In other cases though, alcohol might have a positive effect on anxiety, as it loosens people up. Raj probably knows about this, and that's why he believes it would work for him, and so it does.
neakard, yes, they mention it in the show. I believe Leonard’s mother talks about it at some point
I mean, it's stupid, but i have known quite a few people, usually under the age of 21, who would consider drinking so much you needed to get carried home as a source of pride.
In Sweden you are shunned for drinking anything during week days, but during the weekend you can drink so much that you don't remember that same weekend and thats fine. People even brag about it as if it shows you are "Badass"
Rexonon C i do that anyway.
Japan is more fun. Coworkers can drink together....like boss and interns....and no matter what happens, at the workplace...it didn't happen. What happens After Hours.......stays there
The reason why the characters think that they are hallucinating from the beer isn't because writers don't know how drinking works, it is because some seriously wacky shit is happening while they are drinking. If you were drinking and a dude was walking on water or a car was straddling two buildings as it drove above your head or people started turning into donkeys, I can pretty much guarantee that your brain's response wouldn't be "Well, that type of thing happens all the time and is in no way connected to the alcoholic beverage in my hand".
this ^ spot on
bullshit I would just go holy shit what the hell and go straight to the guy walking on water to obsessionate him with questions
Interesting side note:
In the Middle Ages, beer was oftentimes mixed with deadly nightshade and other herbs, that make you feel funny and sometimes cause hallucinations.
But as more and more people have died drinking this stuff, many places in Europe gradually crafted beer purity laws.
I'd probably start asking the bartender wtf is in this
Jack McIntosh yeah this guy missed the meaning of humor
On the other hand, chloroform works instantly in movies while in reality it takes at least several deep inhales to get the effect.
You completely missed that in movies people sit and drink a whole bottle of booze or pour a glass full with booze and they hardly get drunk after drinking it.
There are a lot of drinking games that boil down to just drinking the most. Most of the time, the people looking at their drink are doing so as a way to try and explain something they saw as being out of the normal. Also, most scorpions are not, in fact, lethal. Most just give you a nasty sting. Although, this particular scene implies a sort of organized betting thing going on, and they are outside. They could have even plucked the scorpion from the sand. Not a fan of whatever this was.
Kohana006 yeah, I was watching this and the first half of the video I was just questioning this dude's research on drinking games and scorpions. :D there's a few scorpion species that could definitely give you nightmarish pain and swelling, but lethal? Not so much. Unless you let a dozen scorpions sting you maybe?
I thought there was something about the smaller the scorpion the more deadly it was? So if that's right, then that tiny little pecker there would probably be meant to kill him.
I always assume (for my sanity) that they not thinking the booze causing hallucinations, but wondering "who spiked my drink with LSD or something"
What I learned from this is that scorpions are arachnids. I always thought that they were arthropods. Cool show, keep up the good work.
I’ve seen drinks on the house once I was in Boston 2004 when the Red Sox broke the curse and won the World Series for the first time since 1918. The whole town erupted and the local bar I was in pretty much waisted a minor two worth of profit, you could pay for a drink for an hour or two.
I once walked into a dive bar and woke up on the floor with everyone laughing at me. I'm 6' 5" and the size and shape of a refrigerator. As I came through the door, a drunk, 5' native woman had sucker-punched me and knocked me out. After staggering to my feet I asked her why she'd cold-cocked me, and she said she hated my hat. I was wearing a Stetson, so I guess it was fair.
NoJusticeNoPeace and that's how i met your mother kids!
NoJusticeNoPeace as Cracked has informed us multiple times, getting knocked unconscious isn't really a thing that happens, and when it does it's extremely dangerous. hope your brain's ok 😄
+Johnahue23 Hit someone at the corner of the jaw and it's an almost guaranteed knock-out. What you're trying to do is slosh someone's brain inside their skull, which will put their lights out instantly. You're right that any lengthy period of unconsciousness means brain damage of some kind, but as long as it's 15 seconds or less you're usually okay.
The moral of the story is: don't piss off short women. XD
lol should have worn a resistol
This guy clearly hasn't played many drinking games. I cant count the amount of times I have seen a guy pass out while still drinking.
Big guy going down after 6 beers and 18 shots?😂 How?
It wasn't the 18th shot that got him.
I had a buddy that we threw a going away party for when I was in high school. And he drank a fifth of Southern Comfort helped finish the rest of the beer and went to sleep at 2am and left around 7am to go to his house to get ready for his flight while we were all asleep. I know cuz he texted from the airport. Lol
I think the point was that, in real life, there's always a _game_ aspect to a drinking game, rather than just having two people drink until one passes out.
Cameron Moore that’s the game. Be the last one passing out
Not to mention every movie ever.
Scene 1: absolutely smashed can't walk and talk is silly. Much laughing
Scene 2: things get really serious, charecter is sober as the day all of the sudden. No drunken trouble.
Or they drink a cup of coffee and are OK in a fucking second
in fact it happened to me i was drunken like shit and somebody start to fight and ko other dude at that time i switch to complete fresh mode called the ambulance help the guy on ground and for rest of the night cant get drunk from anything :D
it's called adrenaline man
I mean idk about you chief but I was blackout one night, next day woke up drank coffee and a sausage and cheese biscuit and I was fine almost immediately
Alcoholic of five years. I saw a lot of drinking in movies that didn't go far enough. Lol
Thor; "We drank, we faught, he made his ancesters proud." because he faught, not because he drank!
**fought. You're welcome.
Haha who got offended when their favourite movie got slammed 😂
It might be because he drank.
I think it's because he drank then fought in that order.
@@atticus2581 Or because he was drinking with Thor, of course his ancestors are gonna be proud.
Regarding the hallucinations, during American Prohibition some of the homemade stuff people drank had chemicals way worse than alcohol in them. Some of those could cause hallucinations. There's probably movies or other entertainment from that era explicitly using that joke.
Yeah, I always associated that joke with a character drinking moonshine (like out of a brown jug in a Looney Tunes bit), which would have been pretty sketchy in that era. I will say it doesn't make a whole lot of sense when the character is drinking other stuff, but I can appreciate the callback.
"30 minutes to feel the effects of alcohol" lol...you'd not have to google to know that's incorrect if you've ever touched a drink
On an empty stomach? 5 minutes, tops.
He's likely quoting some average it's probably closer to 15 irl unless your dehydrated or your blood sugar are low
Its about 5 minutes maybe a minute or two more. 30min is probably peak plasma time, meaning how long after a drink you have the most alcohol in your blood
6:01 As an alcoholic who has been sober for a number of years, I can attest to the long and brutal withdrawal period, followed by the 1st year at least being thoroughly demanding. This guy, for just a couple days is ... 😂
I always assumed the "people thinking they're seeing things because they're drunk" came from the fact that, you know, they're drunk. They're probably not thinking straight, "was that a car driving over the roofs or just birds or something, jeez"
I'm a fairly extreme alcoholic, and if you don't think that alcohol withdrawals will make you have hallucinations, then you are sadly wrong.
Sappheyes that was really sad to read even if it’s half a year later, please do get help if that’s true
When they say its 'on the house' they just don't charge the customers for the drinks they're having, didn't think it was a difficult concept
Contrast that with the other Hollywood trope that drinking one small glass of beer makes the character instantly fall down drunk and completely unable to function.
I think you miss the point I believe he was trying to make. What bar have you ever been to where a patron gives away free drinks. That’s only for the bartender or bar owner to offer. Drinks are on me is what would have been more correct. Imho
Bruh imagine this dude in a party talm bout "alcohol takes 30 minutes to kick in" and telling people how to drink
How about going up to a bartender and ordering a "beer" how do movie/tv bartenders know what type of beer you want? Or is there only one type of beer in movie/tv world?
longdumbstory that is actually very common over here in Rotterdam where I live. You ask for a beer and you receive the most popular brand.
I think the ordering of a beer with out a name, does 2 things it reduces a non essential conversation and it removes the need to make up a fake trade marked beer.
It's more for time constraints and copy rights I would guess, just my 2 cents.
because they can't drop brand names without paying permission first
Ambiguity to avoid product placement?
i thought that in james bond it was a dare not a cocktail. Like some random dudes came in and bet he couldnt drink his whiskey with a scorpion on his hand.
Processingh that was coolest scene ever.
When it comes to influential Disney scenes, let's not forget the famous "Pink Elephants On Parade" alcohol hallucination sequence in 1941's "Dumbo" (the year after "Pinocchio"). However, I'm sure the gag of the alcoholic throwing his drink away when he thinks it's making him hallucinate was used before 1940. Checking the TV Tropes site (I take it you didn't know about it?), the "No More for Me" page lists uses going back at least as far as 1926's "Flesh and the Devil", and Buster Keaton's 1921 "The Playhouse". Hell, that routine may date back to vaudeville or even earlier. Perhaps when it started, alcoholic drinks were more likely to be tainted with potentially hallucination- or delirium-inducing substances, and the meme just stuck.
i actually have carried my friend home its the most pride i will ever feel for him
so.. I think the implication in all the scenes of people throwing away their alcohol at the sight of something to fantastical to be real is that they think something is wrong with the drink. Note how they usually glance to the drink in a mixture of confusion and horror, as if this thing they trusted had betrayed them. Have I just been reading these scenes wrong or did he just wilfully ignore the obvious interpretation for the sake of trying to help his thesis?
Andi CRIMSON, I testify to that. It is possible to drink yourself to hallucinations if you are Russky. When that happens we may also say "napilsya do chyortikov".
In the Big Bang Theory, Raj is scared of talking to women and drunkenness takes away that anxiety by lowering his inhibitions. And it works as a placebo as well (since it worked with non-alcoholic beer before he found out it had no alcohol), so, assuming he doesn't know how alcohol works, just consuming a tiny bit may make him able to speak to women.
Also, the fact that it's a problem is addressed multiple times, as (since he's drunk) he says more than he otherwise would on various occasions.
klop422 Non alcoholic beer has alchohol
hail the web Barely
klop422 yeah I know but alcoholics can be satisfied by it
hail the web In any case, it's not really relevant. As long as Raj doesn't think it has alcohol (and why would he?) it will stop having its effect.
My understanding of the “hallucination” trope was that the drinker is indicating that they don’t think anyone would believe their account if they appeared inebriated. Hence disposing of the alcohol.
1. a life advice from Pinocchio
2. sort yourselves out, Hollywood!
3. a JBP fan confirmed
also, why are all the comments the lenght of an essay??
You forgot about Dumbo's infamous "Pink Elephants on Parade" moment that only triggered because Dumbo got drunk.
I was sure that he was going to mention that, especially when he started talking about "Pinocchio."
Disney called and legally they couldn't mention more than one movie without violating fair use. In fact, Mickey has a convoy of lawyers on the way to your house as I type this.
According to Norse customs, drinking (and singing all night) oneself into unconsciousness is a tribute to Odin, patron of skalds.
Even without knowing the customs, I just assumed he was making a joke. It wasn't that unbelievable. My friends talk like that when we've been drinking a lot.
Unrelated to your point. I should've pointed out that it's an OLD Norse custom btw, just to be clear. Nowadays, Swedes, danes and Norwegians just drink themselves into stupor for no other reason than that it's the weekend.
Onto your point.
Well if the joke hinges on his assumption that nobody drinks to drink themselves unconscious, then that joke falls flat to those who know that there are some (or rather were) people who did exactly that. Also, the hole point of a drinking contest is to test the mettle of those involved, to see who can drink the most in a short amount of time WITHOUT passing out. Not to see who can drink the most booze during an evening of prolonged drinking. So in this case, Hollywood is right and Cracked is wrong!!!!
In the words of Homer Simpson "I am so smart, I am so smart!"
I was at a craft beer centric bar ( 45 taps and the domestics were hidden like Cinderella) and a brewery rep opened a $200 tab for anyone drinking their beer. That’s the closest thing to “drinks on me/the house” I’ve even heard of. Damn that was a good night.
I did actually have a drinks on the House moment. My wife and I went to see a couple bands on tour that came to a bar. We ended up being the only two audience members along with the bartender, two sound guys and the two bands (one of which had just been signed to a label). They still played great for the few of us, and then the bartender treated us all to breakfast shots while some of the band members lit a blunt. Was pretty cool hanging out with almost famous people.
Hey there, greetings from Germany, so excuse my bad English please :-) Just a fact I'd like to leave here: It is not the alcohol that let you see things. It's the lack of. If you are used to drink daily very much amounts of it and the suddenlly stopp you can get into a delire (I hope it's the right word). For example I know people who were sure to pick up Apples from a tree while I talked to them in a hospital room. And I am very sure, there were no trees^^
Gnomix80 the word you’re think of is delirium or delusion :). Great comment by the way
yep! you're right! if you're consuming alcohol (easier with hard liquor) on a daily basis for long enough, you develop a tolerance (a symptom of substance dependence). if you then stop suddenly, the withdrawal can give you chills, make you sweat tons, cause hallucinations, and actually kill you. it's called "delerium tremens" in english. i'm not sure what it's called in german, but it sure is scary!
Wow, an informed reply on a youtube comment section, that saved my fingers undue wear and tear by typing that out. Pretty sure it's the same in German, it's one of those phrases like laissez faire that is kind of univerally used regardless, fairly sure it's not an English word, sounds like a Latin rootword, know what I mean?
Me personally. I always thought those "drunk guy is hallucinating" scenes were because the drunks normally understood that drinking didn't make you see shit that wasn't there, and that because they WERE apparently seeing something that wasn't there, that meant they were drinking something that WASN'T alcohol. That's why everyone looks at or throws their drink away: it's because they think they were actually drinking poison and not actual alcohol, and they're trying to not poison themselves further.
Also your liver can shut down which makes you enzephalopatic because the ammonia cant get out of your body anymore.
Hallucination is a symptom of chronic alcoholism - you can talk about "seeing pink elephants" (or also sometimes, in the UK, seeing rabbits, as in "Hobson's Choice").
The pink elephants thing is from a kids movie, if you see pink elephants you're most likely traumatized
This guy has never been drunk. Somehow.
Agreed
Best bar fight: The Great Race (old West segment)
Best drinks on the house: The Producers when Zero Mostel buys drinks for everyone! There’s only one guy there.
Here's a thing; Americans don't know how drinking games work, why the hell would i want an obstacle to me getting fucking pasted? the entire point of me going out to get fabulously foxed is that i achieve a state of maximum sloshed in rapid order, and preferably neck more of the green fairy than the guy i'm drinking with and faster than he can, it's about enduring the burn 40% spirits or the multiple gallons of cider/lager you should be drinking at any visit to the pub.
The object of a game is that there is some challenge and that there can be declared a winner; in this instance the "drinking as much alcohol as you can" variety has the challenge of dealing with the insane burn that doing shots all night will bring and the winner is whoever can walk home at the end of it
This is the best written youtube comment I've read in years!
Harry How the hel did you get the user name Harry? Without any kind of numbers or family name... I'd have bet it was occupied the moment youtube became a thing, knowing how common the name Harry is.
yeah i never understood beer pong, so if i win i drink less. what is this bullshit
Screw that. I want to enjoy myself before I pass out. Preferably without puking.
Harry “Americans” stereotypical
Raj being unable to talk to girls without alcohol is perfectly plausible! have you not heard of dutch courage? its a very real thing! performers have become problem drinkers because they had to self medicate in order to overcome stage fright!
I agree. Raj has selective mutism, which is essentially a type of anxiety disorder. Anxiety decreases when you introduce a relaxant, as do social inhibitions caused by a social anxiety disorder like Raj's selective mutism. Also, I'm pretty sure in the later episodes he was cured of that. I have an anxiety disorder myself, and I don't drink much, but I know that sometimes a little buzz can calm down the anxiety a bit.
It might be also something psychological which made him talk and not really the alcohol, because in one episode he took a beer without alcohol and he could talk just fine with the girl till he noticed that it had no alcohol. Then he stopped talking.
True, Laura. I remember that episode.
I dont think I could ask a girl out in person without having a drink.
Laura Gonzalez ah, the plasebley affect. (Quote, haha)
I'm always amazed how people sober up in the movies. That also includes LSD trips.... it immediately happens when they receive some "news" about something/someone they care about... then (maybe) get offered some coffee, or slapped in the face, after that (which could be less than one minute), they are stone cold sober, and fine to operate heavy machinery, and OFF THEY GO... TO SET THINGS RIGHT!!!
I have been in 1 bar fight and it wasn't even related to me in the first place. Like you said, there were two dudes, drinking, arguing, and then they started throwing punches instead of insults, and it got ugly, for me at least, They tripped over each other and on me and at some point they mistook me as their opponent. 2 very beefy truckers did their best to bring me as much aches, pain and misery as possible. I broke a rib, got bruises all over, and needed stitches in a lot of places, but when the guys got sober, they were very apologetic and offered to pay my hospital fees. We are on good terms now. Also the bouncer got fired for sleeping on the job and letting them beat me up. The bar paid me 500 dollars for the damage and now we are on good terms. I switched to caffeine from then on though.
Being drunk won't make you hallucinate, but chronic alcoholism leading to DTs can. That's probably where that particular trope came from.
Drinks on the house is a "thing" I saw about a dozen times in just 3 years as a bartender in a neighborhood bar in Uptown New Orleans in the late 90's and early 00's - though only called by the owner or General Manager. Generally, a regular died and the owner bought him a toast, the GM or owner had a big life event.
In a dive I frequented on Long Island, that practiced 4th round buy back, the owner called it when only friends were in the room. Some of the baymen, this was Oyster Bay, would call it after they mugged it on the Bay and they knew the majority of people in the bar.
I always love when patron says leave the bottle. No bartender has ever left an unattended bottle of liquor on a bar.
This is the type of guy that’s never went to a college party
My bar fight - guy behind me insulted his drinking buddy, buddy threw beer at guy, guy dodged. I wore the beer, bouncer threw those two out.
That whole thing about the lost boys in Pinocchio made me think. Could a major studio put out a cartoon that featured boys getting drunk, smoking pipes and cigars and then getting into fights these days?
Praetor_Fenix420 Probably not. Dumbo's even worse. The plot hinges on a baby getting blackout drunk and waking up in a tree.
We will find out about Dumbo next year! They're making a live action 1920's style remake of it! I know because I was an extra in the "circus crowd"!

They failed!
I actually bought everyone a drink in a bar in Berlin. I had to confer with the bartender as to how much it would cost and we actually did a quick head count. We agreed 700 euro would do and it worked out. I got to know a lot of people that night. One of the best times of my life.
I’ve never been in a bar fight, but I did take a trip to Vietnam in college. I got so drunk, that I bought a beer for LITTERALLY EVERYONE in this bar. It ended up being a huge credit card bill (which I paid), and I ate nothing but the cheapest bowls of rice and tap water (which gave me a bacterial infection) for the rest of the trip. Was it worth being the coolest dude ever in front of my class and 40 Vietnamese men all over the age of 50? Absolutely not, I wish I’d saved that money and bought a second handmade silk and cashmere suit (they’re super affordable there).
Having worked in a bar, I can absolutely disagree with almost every assertion you've made. Were you raised in the RUclips Bunker of yours? Is it run by Mormons?
TheCantolope *_Mormon Catholics_*
Lmao! I WAS raised by Mormons. While I drifted away at an early age, I remember as in my late teens I got in an argument with my mother for having a beer or two at party. She was furious with me at the end of it. More so because I couldn't stop laughing when she was nearly yelling at me, "Don't try telling me you don't get drunk off of a beer or two!" Yeah. Just, yeah.
Edit:Yes, I realize I replied to a post nearly a year old. I just couldn't help it. 😁
Kari 1+ year old posts are the best to respond to
MrManiac3 😊
The Mormons are right. The church is true.
I have been at a bar where the bartender/owner gave everyone a shot on the house. It's a good way to appease regulars and get rid of your cheapest booze. As for Skyfall, there's no way that scorpion would give you more than an itchy hand. It's HUGE. Not that crazy of a gimmick.
Otherwise, I was entertained by this video.
I don't know about that. I can see people freaking out even if it was harmless. Also people would definitely sue you even if it gave you a small rash and nothing else.
In America or another large Western country maybe, but in whatever country he's supposed to be in obviously they aren't too worried about getting sued
And yea lots I've been to lots of bars that style themselves as a bar for fans of a particular sports team. Often when that team scores, they will give out free drinks to anyone not wearing the opposing teams jersey. Normally it will be a mixed shot that is not super strong, but it's a customer relationship thing to build a loyal clientele. Giving out some free alcohol makes people feel like you appreciate them and they are more likely to spend more, tip better, and come back.
I think the point about "drinks are on me!" being unrealistic is because of how insanely complicated it would be to keep track of. All of the people in the bar already have a drink in hand; many probably paid for them up front, others have open tabs. So, are they getting their NEXT drink free? Would they all rush the bar in a huge mob to claim it? How would the bartenders keep track of who got their free drink and who's trying to sneak an extra? Do they order whatever they want, or are there conditions? What if someone isn't ready for their next drink, or were just getting ready to leave, or has already been cut off? You can bet they'll make a fuss about getting something they feel entitled to, even if they don't want (or can't have) it. Do they get refunded for their last drink, and if so, how? How do the bartenders know exactly what everyone in that crowded bar had, and how do they transfer all of those transactions onto one guy's tab?
When the bar manager gives everyone a free drink (usually a specific shot or house specialty) for whatever reason, they know exactly what is being given out and how many, and it's often something they're just trying to get rid of anyway, so it makes sense. Some random jerk-off arrogantly proclaiming that he's paying for everyone's huge selection of different drinks is a logistical nightmare.
@@phayes2222 A lot of bars give out tokens that you "cash in" for a drink. Along with that I don't think anyone buys drinks for a a fully crowded bar.
have actually been in a bar where a guy bought everyone there a round. was a pretty small bar as most bars in japan are, 20 more than 20 people inside, and a 70+ year old guy came in and started talking with random strangers while drinking. after a couple hours the owner/bartender announced to everyone that the guy had bought everyone a drink of champagne, and kept opening bottles and pouring until everyone had a class of champagne. we all toasted him, and however many bottles it was was added to the guy's tab.
I've worked in a bar with drinks for everyone, "You say it you pay it" was our sign and rule, everyone orders and he gets the bill, drinks on the house can only be authorized with management so it never happens lol
"It takes thirty minutes to feel the effects of alcohol." Most definitely bullshit
Foxtrot Hotel he's prolly not even old enough to drink yet or never been to big city, just stay in some hellhole horseshit and drink whack shit like BudLight
I downed a whole bottle of vodka before took about 10 minutes for me to be unable to walk :') I also didn't fall into a coma like he was suggesting would happen from shots instead I decided to walk for 2 miles back home and then threw up in my toilet like a civilised person... such a responsible teenager
I always heard seven minutes. Wolf on Wall Street backs me up.
10% of the alcohol is absorbed from the stomach and the rest from small intestine.
Dosage is a thing, if you drink pure ethanol you are going to feel the effects immediately
If you are a collosus of a human and have a smaller friend and you both drink at the same time and the same quantity, the small guy is probably going to get drunk easier, faster, and more
Well bar fights happen. Drunk people get aggressive.. its not even a cliche.
And my theory about how he got to eyefuck a scorpion - he walked in there, ordered tequila and after a view rounds a dangerous scorpiom just wandered around, someone picked it up and made a drinking game out of it. (I havent seen the movie)
And well the guy in the last samurai DID pick up drinking again at the end. Even though moderately. But he did.
And as hollywood taught me: once you quit you cant ever drink a drop again without going to a rage-drink-mode until youre filled up.
obiwanfisher537 Hollywood 4 ya. U b r eak da game u will have to wait until da last call for it to come and k.o. some busta
He said bar fights happen but they don't look like in the movies, 2 drunk dudes usually grapple each other to the ground.
Dunno what kind of prissy bar's you go to mate. People here know how to fight and tend to knock out others with a rather highly telegraphed (depending on how drunk they are) haymakers.
Moinak Mitra Well THAT'S definitely not something to be ashamed of /s
Moinak Mitra
Watch out, we got a badass over here...
as someone that paid and drank their way through college hustling pool in not so wholesome of bars as well as beer pong tournaments these are all very well grounded in reality...
most of the movie scenes you call "hallucinations" are just comedy of that drunk guy seeing somthing actually happening that is so out of the ordinary that he puts down the bottle because he cant belive it and it "must be what hes drinking."
My local bar had a bell that if you rang it, ya had to buy the whole bar drinks, sometimes during great hockey games the manager will ring the bar.
Isn't the hallucination trope a throwback to prohibition, when drinks would occasionally be adulterated with things that might make you hallucinate?
It's a trope that definitely predates Disney's Pinocchio.
Actually the effects of alcohol start almost immediately, I start to feel drunk in only a few minutes. It's either 20% or 80% of the ethanol is active in the brain in a few minutes. The rest takes only 20 minutes. At least it's better than the assumption that it takes up to 30 minutes for any of it to start working.
I know it passes through the digestive tract, which is rather a slow way to consume a drug, but it's still pretty fast where alcohol is concerned.
So many more avenues this topic could have gone down:
How about going up to a bar and: "Gimme a beer"?
How about the bar fights in the EVERY WHICH WAY movies?
Here is the thing... for bar fights, they aren't supposed to be realistic but fun... and for the "hallucination" thing... note how none of those drunks actually hallucinate... they just assume they are hallucinating because of how unbelievable what is happening is.
This guy doesn't know how fact checking works.
Archie Ward "I done research"
Show the first page of his google. So much for facts and researchs
This whole channel is retarded
Esacus I’m pretty sure that was a joke
So within the first 2 minutes I would say you've never been drunk. like have you ever played a drinking game?
As someone who abuses alcohol and is starting to pay the price and deal with the consequences. A lot of the time the movies don't even come close to what hard drinking is like.
In the navy we have a bell that you ring to signal to everyone that you're buying a round. The bartenders just keep track of how much the round cost you and let you know after everyone gets a drink
The same goes for weed and other drugs. In *so* many films and TV shows, people take one hit of weed and then 3 seconds later they're high af
Right???
Honestly, of all things I'd think Hollywood would know how weed works.
10TimesOver
I don't know, man. If you haven't smoked weed in a long time, there's some shit out there now that could almost do that to you. Like, I hadn't smoked weed since high school or something and tried some of the stuff a buddy of mine had... I took like three hits and within five minutes I was a space cadet.
This was also the point where I realized I prefer alcohol and LSD.
SkuzzyJ
Hmm. What you say all sounds true, 5 minutes is a reasonable amount of time for it to hit you, and 3 hits of strong weed when your tolerance is low to get you high is pretty reasonable.
I also prefer LSD, but not so much alcohol.
I take dabs... 3 seconds later I am high as fuck. Maybe everybody in movies should start dabbing!
Man I hear what you're saying, but one hit of weed isn't nothing to someone who either has never smoked before or has 0 tolerance. One good hit of some of the weed coming out of CA and CO can easily put a newbie on their ass for hours.
When I first started smoking my gf at the time told me "don't worry if you don't want to talk or hang out and need some alone time after." I was like "whatever" but moments after smoking I slowly sank into a mattress on the floor. I weighed over a ton, and I could not speak or move. My gf came to check on me several times, and I could hear her saying words but her face was out of focus and it sounded like I was listening to her from the bottom of a pool. I was in that state in the exact same position for at least 6 hours. No idea what I thought about during that time but I bet it was awesome.
I have a lot of experience with various substances, and the most unpleasant experiences were always being too high on weed. Weed's intense, mang, it's easy to forget that when your tolerance gets sky-high.
Ive actually been to a bar in Thailand where the bartender showed us the different drinks he had; he had a bottle with... cant remember what drink, but it had a dead snake in it (he claimed it was made with its poison?)... but he also actually had a scorpion in a jar (thai barkeepers dont really care about scorpion wellfare), and dared us to drink a shot with it on our hands. Of course, none of us did, and i have no idea how poisonous the scorpion really was, but it was definitely alive. It was black though.
I've seen a guy give a round to the bar once, I was working in a bar one Friday night when I was a teenager and the manager got the call that his gf was going in to labour. Understandably he left immediately (leaving me in charge of the bar for the night). It was a long, long, looong labour and the next night he comes back delighted that his son was born healthy and shouted "DRINKS ARE ON ME!!!" to the entire bar. Thankfully for him it was about 6pm and the evening rush hadn't ramped up yet or else he would have been seriously out of pocket
This happened at a bar on the lake where my cottage is, a guy offered to buy everyone drinks that was there, there were only like 12 people but still...also in Deadpool Weasel says “nothing imported” because all the drinks were going on Wade’s tab and he wasn’t gonna see that money for a very long time, so he didn’t want it to be too expensive...
Well actually it was not uncommon for vikings to hold "beer" parties or feasts(they mostly drank mead), where they would eat a whole lot and then drink until everyone was passed out drunk. This was mostly reserved for special occasions like coming home after succesful raids, celebrating a new Jarl (chieftain/lord) or king or marriages. It was not uncommon to have more than an entire day feasts to celebrate weddings.
Side note they also did competitions in between like arm-wrestling or the like
One tequila, two tequila, three tequila, floor.
Pathological intoxication. It won't make you look at your drink and think you're hallucinating, but as it is an alcohol induced psychosis it will make you hallucinate a lot and get very aggressive. Worst part is when you wake up in jail next morning and hear that you almost killed two guys and that you're going to prison for a while.
This guy wouldn't know a screwdriver from a margarita!
This is the annoying guy at a party that doesn't shut up about how he doesn't understand why movies are movies. While he gives you a name list of movies and says "remember john wick there's no way somebody can do that. At 70% muscle and 30% body fat, at 140lbs and I can't do it, no one can possibly do what he does."
I'm Irish so I guess this video isn't for me
that's because unlike the whipped bitch in the video, you can probably hold your booze
One of my major gripes about hollywood drinking is that hardcore alcoholics just suddenly decide to stop drinking, pour out their bottle, and go on their merry way...they never address the issue of withdrawls and delerium tremens, which can be torturous and even lethal...it ain't pretty, but it's a serious and very real part of dependency
antiproanti not to mention almost no one gets a hangover, unless it’s integral to the plot. And the hangover “cures” sober you up in a heartbeat.
I think the subtext with the seeing the weird things then looking at the drink in your hand is "what is in this? Has it been spiked? " not "uh oh, I've had enough
Drinking has different effects from person to person. Some really get hallucinations and
have short term amnesia but its rather uncommon. Most of people just get hammered alot, puke there guts out and pass out.
Don't think the fisherman in Superman II was drinking beer from a coffee cup man?! Like WTF.
No shit. One time I got so blasted, I went home and fell asleep. I dreamt that the walls, in my closet, were talking to me, telepathically, telling me to let it all go and piss on the walls. The walls, themselves, yelling at me, "we will absorb the piss." That morning I woke up and the first thought in my mind was did that really happen. I opened my closet doors and said, "Fuck!"
Actually scorpion shots are absolutely a thing! My mom lives in the desert in Mexico and it's pretty much crawling with scorpions, so whenever you find a scorpion in the bar you put it on your hand and do a shot. fun but scary
Try drinking two weeks straight, then you will see things. But usually I think when person looks his drink when thinking that they hallucinated, they actually think they didn't drink alcohol, but somebody spiked their drink, or just sell them stuff that had methanol in it and wonder if they are going to die.
mr0661 i in fact did drink for two weeks straight at one time and no you dont hallucinate
...congratulations, you probably just destroyed your liver.
"For the ancient Norsemen, drinking was much more than just consuming alcoholic beverages. Drinking ale and mead was instead part of their ancestral lifestyle and had deep cultural and religious significance."
The "buying the bar" has def happened. My high School teacher won the horse races and bought the whole restaurants dinner and drinks that night.
Husband is an ex bouncer. He nodded his head. Exemptions being people who are not drunk, or buzzed at best.
