Don’t dox yourself btw. It’s the storytellers prerogative to take a bit of creative license.

My best drinking story is one told to me by my parents, because I don't even remember it. See, it was actually my birthday party in which I got very drunk. Also, I was 2

So apparently these old boomers thought "Oh it's only one tiny sip, she'll be fine. doesn't matter that she's 2", but they all had that same idea, and after a few "one tiny sips" I was one tiny drink toddler. Thanks mom and dad. Probably didn't help my brain develop very well :/

Anyway, that's the best drinking story I have because I don't drink. Not even because of this; I just don't much care for the taste or the feeling, so yeah

My family would do this but for say 10+ years. One year my cousin decided to cage a sip from everyone he could and was also downing unattended drinks. Yeah, ended like you think. We all learned a valuable lesson that night. :)

In my case it was the discovery of a leaking wine cask on top of the fridge

How'd you get on top of the fridge?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I didn't. Leaking liquid + Gravity

πŸ˜… makes sense. Clearly the toddler-aged alcohol poisoning is having its effect on my brain

Missed the lesson on gravity while you were in rehab at 4.

whenever I visit my parents there’s a photo on the fridge of when I was the toddler at an open bar wedding.

Just a lil guy all dressed up and reaching into the wine cooler πŸ₯²

I’ve been told after the photo was taken I was stopped.

Rub it in how you had responsible guardians XD

Emphasis on been told. There a few in the family that have given differing accounts.

There's a family video where I'm like 3, I get myself a wine glass and go to the wine and a cousin helps me pour myself a small wine. It's very clear on the video that this wasnt the first time.
