CoCigarSmoker Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 So, its St. Patty's Day and needless to say I'm drunk and the wife had to give me the nudge that it was time to return to the homestead. So as I sit here praying that auto-correct catches all of my intellectual shortcomings (tried to say fo paws but couldn't spell it) I can't help but think that I'm not the only married man that has been given "the nudge". So gentlemen, or should I say you surly bunch, let's here about that moment when you were mid conversation and you were right about to get to the best part of your drunken story or foray and your wife completely deflated your machismo! And for those that say that this has never happened to you I say, you are either single or in denial! And that sh** ain't no river either! So light up those cigars my brethren and let us rejoice in the bond.....age that we all call marriage! Cheers (literally), Seth

Popular Post El Presidente Posted March 18, 2015 Popular Post Posted March 18, 2015 Set the fire alarms off in a Sydney Hotel because I fell asleep in a drunken stupor leaving the hot water in the shower running to "steam my clothes" for the next day. Woken up by firemen in my room. Hotel evacuated. I slept through the alarms. Banned. Found my favourite green shirt folded on reception desk at the Hilton Sydney when checking out. Apparently after a big night with the lads I took my shirt off and threw it on the floor...of the foyer...before hopping in the lift. No wonder I couldn't find it in my room in the am. Banned. Sought assistance from family members as apparently I could not get my sleeves through the front door at 4am. Banned if they could. Showed mates what it is like to run with the bulls in Pamplona. Should not have done it at 2am in Malachlan St Fortitude valley on a Friday using cars as bulls. Reprimanded by men in blue. there are plenty more....... Alcohol and I have a checkered past 10

There's an old Russian proverb: "Having a good wife and rich cabbage soup, seek not other things." 2
PapaDisco Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 lol, you're doing really well for being wasted. The universal rule of the internet is never post drunk! same for texting!
Jeremy Festa Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 My wife is Irish and pretty mental. So I am usually only sent home once I take my clothes off! Here's me at the beginning of the last wedding reception I attended And 30 minutes later Cheers Sent from my iPhone 1
madandana Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Just last night we were siting at the hotel bar is Sioux Fall South Dakota after the Bob Segar concert. The room service phone kept ringing because everyone was to busy to pick it up so..........I though i'd pitch in. The wife was unamused when I told the caller the kitchen was not able to cook pizza because the cook was clipping his toe nails and the toe nails all ended up in the dough. Ya, I was a little over served.. AGAIN. 1
Rushman Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Gotten the nudge a few times. During my first marriage the wife worked til 7 or so when I was off at 5. Too many times to count the wife had to pick me up after a "quick" happy hour turned awry. Don't nearly drink that much anymore so rarely let myself get over served any longer.

wabashcr Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 This is one of the primary reasons I stopped drinking alcohol 3+ years ago, and haven't touched it since. I've had more than my fair share of nudges, eye rolls, etc. Wish I'd have done better, but I made a mess out of alcohol. 1
AlBaron Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Over the years, my wife has been trained on when exactly she needs to nudge me, and I am properly trained to know that the nudge happens at that exact moment when I stop being entertaining and just about to begin being very annoying to others... Heck, I now say: "that's exactly why I got married - so I always have someone to get me home safely and on time" Alex
CatchNRelease Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 There are many reasons I married my wife, but one of the most useful reasons is her ability to keep me out of trouble. Even if I'm wasted, I still listen to her when it's time to leave because I'm being an *******. Allowed me to keep friends and stay out of jail many a time
CoCigarSmoker Posted March 18, 2015 Author Posted March 18, 2015 And Rob wins by a land slide haha. It sounds like Di is a saint for putting up with you haha. Seth
JohnS Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 I absolutely support anyone that recognises that they have difficulties stopping past a certain amount. It's a fact that some of us are genetically pre-disposed to alcohol. Some of us are pre-disposed to caffeine, I definitely fall into this category. I enjoy fine drinks (whiskies, cognac and certain cocktails like martinis, manhattans, sazeracs etc remain a favourite) when I can, and when I'm light-headed I think I am what you'd classify 'a happy drunk'.
Habana Mike Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Well, the wife doesn't hold her liquor as well as I - it's typically me giving versus getting the nudge
leftimatic Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 The only time my wife ever gave me the nudge was when I was telling her well to do boss's parents how I couldn't stand rich pretentious people. Before I met my wife I could of stood a few nudges. But only drinking with my brother. A brother who lets the other brother dance on a bar table in his underwear alone is no brother of mine. Never barred but told not to come back till I turned 19! Somewhere I have a picture of us wearing lacey bras and motorcycle helmets. Not sure what the statement was we were trying to make but it wasn't pretty. Hairy chests and furry beards have no place in lingerie.
cooper669 Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 Alcohol and I have a checkered past You are not the only one Rob, I hate to think about it.
polarbear Posted March 18, 2015 Posted March 18, 2015 I was once coming to the end of a particularly funny story and I planned to take a puff of my cigar at the end of it (for dramatic effect) the missus ended up slapping the cigar out of my hand because I was about the put the lit end in my mouth We both agreed it was time for me to go home after that 1
El Presidente Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 And Rob wins by a land slide haha. It sounds like Di is a saint for putting up with you haha. Seth Seth I had to tone down my behaviour........ because Di is worse than I .....and one of us had to be the sensible one in the relationship!!! I never imagined it would be me 3
LGC Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 Well, the wife doesn't hold her liquor as well as I - it's typically me giving versus getting the nudge Ummmm... same here. I do wear the pants though... I swear.

I never imagined it would be me Let's not talk about the time in Hong Kong when you were trying to sell me to the highest bidder just because I had a few wines throughout the night. Given we were at a certain establishment where men walk out with women on the arms not walk in with a woman 1

I had no idea it was a hooker bar. 2

El Presidente Posted March 19, 2015 Posted March 19, 2015 I do not believe you typed that with a straight face. Seriously Fuzz....i have been there quite a few times over the years for the music. Brilliant! I just assumed all the ladies present was because I managed to be there on "ladies night" each time 2
