Whoa, he just got banned. WTF?

He was drunk. He'll be unbanned in 24 hours, by which time he will be (hopefully) sober.

Is that a rule or something? I couldn't find anything in the rules about being temporarily banned for intoxication. (Although, it does kinda make sense.)

I don't believe there's a rule that you can't post drunk, but he was disrupting another thread, and his excuse for doing so was that he was "an angry drunk". So yeah.

I posted here super drunk once or twice but I don't think anyone noticed .. :blushing:

Too hard to tell unless someone explicitly mentions it and this person did.

Haha I know it's a serious thread but I laughed hard with this.

To the OP, I think he should take some time out of school and think what he really wants in life. Not doing grad school isn't the end of the world, if he doesn't want to do it.

From the TV show Cheers:

Diane (to Sam): You're stupid!

Sam: You're drunk!

Diane: Maybe so, but at least I'll be sober tomorrow.

Winston Churchill had the same exchange with Bessie Bradock, except he called her ugly instead :D
