I already made a lame joke very similar to yours, it's currently being buried. Run while you can, sir!

People are this thing called "different." What applies to one does not apply to another. Your wife may be able to remember everything she does while drunk, but not everyone has her genetic makeup and experiences, do they? Some people can remember, some people get to the point at which they can't.

49 beat me this time! But as s/he says, people are different, and I can't see why anyone would think that everyone works the same, that's just ridiculous. I rarely forget things I do when I'm drunk. Or arleast I think so, I wouldn't know if I've forgotten something since I don't remember it. Anyway, my friend on the other hand, seems to forget really easily. When sober, my memory is ten times worse though. I should be drunk all the time.

I realize people have different limits, but is it not imperative you learn your own personal limits? How on earth can people know that they're not drunk drivers, burglars, or rapists if they don't know how to stop before their personal limit? (Whatever amount that might be). I just don't understand that at all. They're literally putting their own lives at risk and the answer is "Well, I'm different than you!"?
