    Hahaha well done! captures alot of different feelings, a bit dark, insightful and funny... all in less than three hundred words.

    Probably the most original passage ive read today.
    I like youre style too, this is kind of a difficult one to critique so ill just say.........

    entertaining!

    Adorable

    This reminds me very distinctly of...
    well, pretty much every other night from the last five years of my life.

    It was quite hilarious.

    I don't really know how to provide constructive criticism for this, as it is, by its very nature, not easily critiquable.

    So I won't.

    Instead I'll just add...

    TO ADD
    To ALL NIGHTS!
    Good work.

    Really very insightful, and funny.

    People often drink to 'socialise', but we all know that drinking has a strange effect on some people. Some get chatty. Some sleepy (me). Others get angry and abusive. Your Dad's story really is very thoughtful, and funny.

      Thanks again Rorsh
      Strangely when I am drunk I am the same but the people I hang out with are the exact opposite of what they are normally like.
      Yes, alcohal does have strange effects.

  • This was hilarious! Good job.

    I like how he says "Where the fuck are you from?" LOL The author's note made it make sense. I wonder what "compie" means...

    Haha! This was funny! I liked this, a very weird and random but also rather dark story. The humor was good and spunky! Great job!
