Today, I got a ticket for being drunk in public. I was walking a couple of blocks from the bar to my house, because I didn't want to drive drunk. FML

Today, I watched a drunk guy getting thrown out of a bar, then get tased on the sidewalk outside. He was our designated driver. FML

Today, I was arrested for drinking in public. It was my friend who was drinking; I was taking the alcohol from her so she wouldn't be arrested. FML

Today, I went out drinking with my friends. Being safe as we were a little intoxicated, we took a taxi back. The cab driver was also drunk. FML

Today, I decided to be responsible and call a cab to take my drunk ass home from the bar. As I climbed into the cab, I was quickly pulled back out and had the shit beaten out of me by a group of drunk guys who thought they needed the ride more. The police soon arrived and arrested us all. FML

Today, after finishing work, my friend was having a party next door and my driveway was blocked. I parked 6 houses down and went to the party for 20mins. After coming out after 3 beers, I went to move my car back to my house and go to sleep. I got a DUI for driving 30 feet. FML

Today, I was the designated driver. On the way home with my drunk friends, they decide to give me a beer shower. I swerved, and was pulled over by a cop moments after. I was the only one arrested. FML

Rough night, huh?

Today, I was drunk and broke my leg. I called 911, only for the cops to turn up and make me try to walk, with them saying that I was faking my injury. They arrested me for being drunk in public and hours later I finally got to an ER. I had to have surgery on my leg. FML

Today, I tried to keep a drunk girl from driving by holding her keys, but she had a spare set in her purse. She hit me with her car when I was walking home. FML

Welcome to America 2016. The police don't want to help you, they just want to throw the book at you. Two decades ago, that cop would have walked you the one block to your house and told you to sleep it off.

It is in the state laws. Generally at discretion of the police officer, if a person is intoxicated enough to be a danger to himself and others, he is put into custody for a few hours to sober up and might get a ticket. It is easily avoided by not drinking like a pig at least outside your or your friend's house.

You're the person the guy in my driver's ed class talked about. I have a solution for this:Don't get drunk.

When I was 18, I also received a WWI. I had to go to court and everything. I thought "What are they going to make me do???? Make meDRIVE everywhere???

Umm if you live in the US then I'm guessing you didn't get in trouble for walking home while drunk but for being drunk 3 years before you were legally allowed to drink.

Umm I'm guessing they don't live in the US or they wouldn't have told that story like that... Not everyone is American, you know.

At first I though "how unfair!" But now I'm wondering if you were being really obnoxious or loud. Were you yelling at people or banging on doors or something?
