I’m old and miss all the irrelevant tosh that we used to gibber about. 😁

I heard some things at work yesterday I wish I could unhear.

Bur I can’t, so I might have a second glass of wine.

Ooooh what did you hear? šŸ‘€

Flashthemagnet · 28/08/2026 20:53

Wasnt it usualsuspect that started it? Seems like years ago now.

Kangarude · 28/08/2026 20:54

YES! Usualsuspect but it was picked up by a poster with a name similar to scouse

Trust me, you’re much happier not knowing.

Nothing threatening or anything like that though.

Now you'd get a strong reproof for encouraging binge drinking, reported to MNHQ for being drunk in charge of a keyboard, and told you were 'absolutely vile'.

No, this usually happens on a Tuesday.

Yes I remember, I had a different name then but it such good fun. We used to be a bit mischievous and discuss other threads and sometimes go onto the other threads which would probably result in a ban these days.

Emmylou22 · 28/08/2026 21:12

I'm on the Irish whiskey and sat here with the cat. What a week šŸ˜µā€šŸ’«

LindorDoubleChoc · 28/08/2026 21:13

I remember it existing although I wasn't a participant. But it was a regular feature, for yonks.

LoftyRubyTraybake · 28/08/2026 21:14

Normalish week here, I miss ā€œhave I got for news for youā€ every Friday it’s not on

Perhaps you should all consider you may have a drinking problem...

Only joking šŸ˜‚ it's me who has the drinking problem - I have two hands and only one mouth šŸ˜‚

People say I've got a drinking problem

But I don't have any problem drinking at all.

But yes I remember - I don't even have the same account now pesky intern it was a different time.

cardibach · 28/08/2026 21:18

I remember them! Used to look forward to them - some easy tv, some wine and the drunk thread.

SauvignonBlanche · 28/08/2026 21:23

I remember it well, was only thinking about that the other day.šŸ˜†
Didn't it morph into the Friday night Bumsex thread, or am I just just old and confused?

RosieLeaLovesTea · 28/08/2026 21:26

So is this the start of the new Friday night drunk thread? I have had two glasses of wine. Hubby had other 2. Now he has gone out to get a 2nd bottle. We are watching Toy Story 5. 😜

lovemelongtime · 28/08/2026 21:29

Fk me some amateurs on here. I've had a bottle of champagne and most of a bottle of rose. Had a shocking cancer scare and it's taken three weeks to tell me all is ok so I need to let my hair down.

All supported by AI bullet points.

Mydahliasareshit · 28/08/2026 21:37

I'm here after lots of red wine, but have also just taken a Kirkland sleep aid, so might not go the distance!

cardibach · 28/08/2026 21:37

I had a very heavy drinking few days away in Paris with my choir so I’m not drinking tonight, but it’s rare on a Friday! Glad the scare is over @lovemelongtime
The old threads got me through some tough weeks with a bullying boss back in the day. Retired now (early) so no bosses to worry about. I still drink on Friday night (and actually whenever I want) because I like gin and wine!

FairViewRosie25 · 28/08/2026 21:38

I am drinking wine, feeling fine, and watching Dolly Parton at Glastonbury

Mydahliasareshit · 28/08/2026 21:39

Oh, Dolly at Glasto is so special!

FairViewRosie25 · 28/08/2026 21:41

It is. She was wonderful
