Drunken Logic

Just quickly, before I hit the hay:

Tonight one of my roommates decided to direct traffic outside the club after it closed. Not foot traffic - car traffic. Said road is a one way street. "You there!! Come on through! Let's go! You there bouncer-man, give me your jacket so I can do this properly." I guided him gently by the arm to the late night snack place.

It's a good example of what I call drunken logic. It seemed like a good idea at the time. My brother and I started using the phrase after one rotten session in the centre of our town (that means drinking downtown in American). We went back to my apartment and crashed. I woke up in the middle of the night to use the toilet. To my surprise, I found one of my brother's socks in the toilet. Using the toilet brush I removed it from the bowl. Later on, I asked my brother, who slept on the futon fully clothed other than said sock, what the feck?

He had no memory of any sock doffing, and so replied, "drunken logic, I guess." To this day when one of us does something numb while on the piss, we justify it with either "drunken logic" or "sock in the toilet."
