    WTF Friday: How Do People Get this Drunk? [Photos]

    Sure, we all have nights where we drink a little bit too much and slur our words a little bit too much and throw up a little bit too much. But we’re young and we learn from our lessons. You only have to wake up in fetal positions on the bathroom floor so many times to realize that cotton candy vodka might not be the smartest drink choice.

    Are Drunk Babysitters the Answer to Binge Drinking on College Campuses?

    Look, we all know that drunken stupidity is a problem on college campuses. And we all know that Universities are at risk of being held responsible if something were to go horribly wrong. So it makes sense that schools are constantly coming up with new ways to combat the binge drinking. Except some of their ideas are less than stellar.

    Friday Faves: Are You an Annoying Drunk?

    There are two types of drinkers: The kind that can handle their liquor, and the kind that can’t. The kind of drunk who is the life of the party, and the kind the party wants to punch in the face. What kind of person are you?

    The Most Annoying People at a New Year’s Eve Party

    New Year’s Eve…you either love it or hate it. True, it doesn’t usually live up to expectation, there’s never been a year that everyone makes it to midnight, and you don’t always have someone to kiss. But there is champagne…God, is there champagne. But despite all the inherit glitz and glam that comes with ringing in January 1st, there are still those few annoying people who manage to ruin your night…

    The Morning After: Animal Behavior

    The last day of my freshman year of college was a blur. Went to class, took a final (passed?), signed up to donate money to the ASPCA, then went to work. But the last night of freshman year is crystal clear.

    Want to Survive Freshman Year? Avoid These First-Year Blunders

    So you’re going to be a freshman. Thanks to your advisor/mom/campus tour/Bed Bath and Beyond advertisements, you think you’re ready. You learned how to do laundry, you’ve purchased the Twin XL sheets, you measured your future dorm room (and cried when you realized you could touch all 4 walls from the middle of the room) and all those A.P. classes have prepared you for the workload that comes in college.

    The Morning After: 4 Roommates, One Bad Night

    Everyone in college can recall their “worst night” (the night they end up passed out in a pile of woodchips, or walking home at 8AM with a banana costume on), but unfortunately for us, all four of my roommates had ours on the same night.

    The CC Weekly Weigh In: Blame It On The A-A-A-A-A-Alcohol

    As 2009 was coming to a close I vowed that I’d make some big changes for the year to come, namely to act like the adult that I am and not like the rockstar college girl I once was. I told myself I’d drink more responsibly, that I didn’t need to get drunk to have fun, and that I might finally be at the age when dancing on stages is no longer socially acceptable.

    We’ve All Been There: One Shot Too Many

    You start off with a few rum and Diets at home before heading to the house party. You couldn’t possibly walk in sober and who knows how much access you’ll have to booze once you get inside? You’re sipping on your last pre-drink when your friends are finally ready to go, so you chug it and follow them out.

    An Open Letter to the Drunk Girl at the Party

    As much as I would love to silently judge your drunken mistakes, I can’t help but laugh it off, talk about you to my friends and hope that I just caught you after you had a horrible week, which is slightly understandable.
