Alcohol-Induced Idiocy | comment |
Incidents of jaw-dropping stupidity brought about by a character's excessive consumption/usage of mind-altering substances. These substances are usually alcoholic beverages (as alcohol can be legally acquired in sufficient quantities to effect one's judgement in most places), but other mind-altering drugs sometimes get used instead (if the drug in question is illegal in the place where the story was made, it's often also part of a Drugs Are Bad message). This tends to overlap with In Vino Veritas: Often, the character committing the act of alcohol-induced idiocy will be an otherwise sensible and reasonably intelligent person when sober. If the character is normally dimwitted, getting drunk will make him even dumber. In both cases, the character's inebriation usually results in him being a danger to himself and others. Someone who becomes a Drunken Master when intoxicated is the direct opposite, though sometimes these tropes can alternate (e.g. a rock musician who is more capable drunk onstage than sober, but then gets beaten up after picking a pointless fight he has no chance of winning the moment he gets offstage) or can even co-exist (the thing the drunken mastery is of something that someone in any kind of rational mental space would not do, e.g. walking a tightrope above a guaranteed fatal drop without safety gear, wrestling an actual bear). Liquid Courage tends to be a more positive occurrence. Alcohol-Induced Idiocy can be similar to the Idiot Ball or any other plot device that depends on Contrived Stupidity. Thus, this trope is related to Too Dumb to Live, Idiot Ball, Out-of-Character Moment, What Were You Thinking?, and Phlebotinum-Induced Stupidity. The only difference is that this trope comes with a built-in excuse. Can often lead to a character getting an Embarrassing Tattoo… or doing something much, much worse. Some of the other results of Alcohol-Induced Idiocy are covered in the What Did I Do Last Night?, You Wake Up in a Room, Alcohol-Induced Bisexuality, and Sorry Ociffer tropes. May overlap with Youth Is Wasted on the Dumb. Once the character sobers up and is taken to task for their actions they may attempt to explain that It Seemed Like a Good Idea at the Time. In comedy works, we (the audience) might not hear all the details of what happened while a character was under the influence, just humorous and tantalizing hints to feed our imaginations. The Alcohol-Induced Idiocy trope can also be used as An Aesop about the dangers of over-consuming alcohol and drunk driving. Unfortunately, instances of Alcohol-Induced Idiocy are so common that this is Truth in Television, and studies have shown that even casual booze consumption can cause cognitive decline. |

The Titfield Thunderbolt: After spending some time drowning their sorrows over the wreck of the engine, Dan and Mr. Valentine decide to borrow a temporary replacement from the nearest big railway shed. Because they are drunk, rather than doing the smart thing and telephoning the shed, they go there to borrow an engine without asking the foreman, and end up driving it off the turntable onto bare ground, through the streets, and into a park where the locomotive stops when it crashes into a tree offscreen. | |

Seven Brothers: After the brothers have begun farming, and making their own spirits from the grain (and drinking it), Simeoni and Eero are sent to the city to sell rye and spirits and buy high-quality food and drink so that the brothers can properly celebrate Michaelmas. They return over a week later, empty-handed, with all the money wasted on more liquor and pastries in the city, and with their horse suffering from lack of food. | |

Many, many scenes in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas occur, and could only have occurred, while the protagonists are 'horribly twisted' from massive amounts of alcohol and other mind altering substances. Who would ask for someone to throw a plugged-in tape recorder into the bathtub with him while sober? | |

In Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Hagrid was tricked into revealing the secret to getting past the three-headed dog guarding the Philosopher's Stone by "Quirrelmort". This was helped along by Quirrelmort ingratiating himself with Hagrid by offering to sell him a dragon egg (Hagrid had always dreamed of raising a dragon) and buying him drink after drink. | |

DEATH BATTLE!'s rare fights that are completely hand-animated generally have a good reason for it, i.e. "Smokey the Bear vs. McGruff the Crime Dog" having no other sources, or the "Mario vs. Sonic" revisit being the 100th episode. The exception is "Samurai Jack vs. Afro Samurai", which was done hand-animated because Luis made the request while tipsy. | |

Captain Bartholomew from Wild ARMs is introduced as someone who frequently gets into trouble because he can't keep off the booze. When your party first meet him, he laments the fact he drunkenly bragged to his rival that he was getting married but has neither the flower needed for the ceremony nor a bride. After you get the flower, his rival turns up and, drunk again, he ropes Cecilia into a fake wedding. Your party only goes along with it because they need to protect the statue on his ship. (And Jack finds the whole thing pretty amusing.) | |

Alias: This is what leads to Daniel Hecht's death in the series premiere. After finding out Sydney Bristow is a spy and having a falling out with her, he gets drunk, calls her while she's away on a mission, and leaves a rambling voicemail begging her to come home and reconciling with her in spite of her job. Unfortunately, he lets slip that he knows about Sydney's occupation, and it just so happens SD-6 was monitoring the call. Cue Sydney returning home and finding Danny's body in the bathtub. | |

After Cardan, in The Folk of the Air, manages to avoid being assassinated by getting black out drunk and missing the party, he then very nearly squanders this stroke of fortune by stumbling around drunk in the aftermath, aware that he very narrowly missed a beheading but not aware enough of his situation to think to lay low, nor to question when the daughter of a general who is out for his blood takes him by the arm and starts dragging him around. | |

Cheers: In "Bar Bet", recovering alcoholic Sam suffers a relapse and drunkenly bets a man that if he hasn't married Jacqueline Bisset in one year, he'll let him have the bar. 364 days later, after Sam has long since sobered up and gone back on the wagon, the man shows up at the bar to collect on the bet. In another episode, the guys play a game of poker where Cliff becomes increasingly belligerent as the game goes on due to the beer they've been drinking. This culminates in him trying to claim victory with a hand of unmatched cards and knocking the table over. Ironically, he hasn't actually been drinking alcohol. Earlier, Rebecca switched out the beer for near-beer when she discovered the bar's liquor license had expired. |

A moment of this is what really dooms the surveyor expedition the narrator is working for at the time in the first Winnetou novel. The Apaches were already not happy to find out about the plans to run a railway through their lands without anyone asking their permission, but it's when a drunk scout still smarting over Winnetou's refusal to take a drink with him actually tries to shoot him and hits and kills his old teacher instead that the last chance for an even halfway peaceful resolution goes out of the window. | |

The Simpsons: happens frequently and is often displayed by Homer and sometimes his barfly buddy Barney Gumble. Homer Simpson In a flashback scene during "El Viaje Misterioso de Nuestro Homer", Homer, after drinking too much beer at a chili cook-off, decides to take off all his clothes and climb into a cotton-candy machine and pretend he's a "puffy pink cloud." From "Treehouse of Horror IV": In "The Great Louse Detective", after hearing a list of Homer's enemies (which includes several celebrities, a company, and a state), Sideshow Bob asks how one normal man could have so many enemies. Homer's response: Barney Gumble In an example involving Barney, the "Mr. Plow" episode features a flashback scene where we see a teenage Barney studying for the SAT when Homer sneaks in with a six pack of beer. After Homer pressures him, Barney reluctantly agrees to take a drink and, with one sip, we actually see his IQ drop sharply. Parodied in "Boy-Scoutz 'n the Hood", where Bart and Milhouse go on a squishee bender. The next day, Bart discovers he's joined the Junior Campers, and Milhouse has a dirty word shaved into the back of his head. Barney, who drank some of the Squishee, wound up joining the Navy, and apparently not for the first time. In "Deep Space Homer", Barney, when selected by NASA to be an astronaut, swears off alcohol and successfully completes his training program with flying colors. Unfortunately, when he takes a sip of a congratulatory glass of champagne, his face immediately reverts back into its permanently soused expression as he proclaims, "It begins". He then steals a jet pack and careens drunkenly through the sky until it runs out of fuel, causing him to crash onto a pillow factory roof and bounce onto the street below where he's run over by a marshmallow truck. The fact that it was non-alcoholic champagne says something about Barney's alcoholism. |

Any time the MythBusters have to get drunk on camera for a myth, hilarity of some kind is sure to ensue. The hangover myth (beer vs. beer and liquor) is a prime example; it includes Tory jumping into bed by climbing the wall outside the bedroom (rather than, you know, using the door to get in). | |

The plot of the Cyanide and Happiness short "Drunk". The protagonist's brain is normally smarter than his body. Many, many drinks later, this is no longer the case. His body and his poop both realize that driving while drunk is a bad idea and try to dissuade the brain from doing so. They fail. | |

The Red Dwarf series of novels elaborate on Dave Lister's circumstances of joining the Jupiter Mining Corps ship the franchise is named for; to celebrate his 24th birthday Lister and his friends went on a monopoly themed pub crawl, during which he forgot where to go, so he stepped out to buy a monopoly board, saw an ad in the cab about demi-lightspeed zippers to Mars, and woke-up in women's underwear with a passport in the name of Emily Berkenstein, on Mimas a moon of Saturn. The third arc of the first book was also added by heavy alcohol. With it looking like the crew can make it back to Earth, they throw a farewell party and get drunk. This results in Cat wandering off and finding a stash of Better Than Life game sets to try out. Lister and Rimmer follow him in under the tipsy belief they could talk him out, only to get addicted as well. |

It ends with both of them getting completely smashed by the time the rest of the gang catches up to them. At one point, Ryuji blurts out that he and his gang are the Phantom Thieves, but everyone thinks he's so drunk that they dimiss his words as the ramblings of a drunken fool. Meanwhile, Yusuke starts spouting drunken haiku's, much to Futaba's delight. | |

This includes, but is not limited to: Talking about how he's interested in a hookup, but not a relationship, and then making moves on Emma. Acting cocky and as though Emma is lucky to have the opportunity to be with him. Treating Emma like a "floozie" that can be bought. | |

This is how Rincewind accidentally invents Vegemite in The Last Continent. Drinking beer and trying to figure out how to make soup without water, it occurs to him that the beer is practically made out of the same stuff as bread, so boiling it up with dried vegetables and salt in it would probably be better than using water. Then he passes out, and wakes to find a weird yeasty brown stuff in the bottom of the tin. | |

From Kill la Kill AU, we have the resident alcoholic Rei Hououmaru (otherwise known "Rei the Drunk Secretary") and, being rarely sober, she is prone to some hijinks, i.e sending kids on a beer run (subsequently getting herself whacked in the head with a baseball bat) or getting jailed for drunk driving, along with breaking & entering and assault & battery. Apparently, she is a third time offender on two of those accounts. Her drunken hijinks was also what put Soichiro in the hospital, which explains why he was absent in the Christmas pic. | |

King of the Hill - in flashback, the guys celebrate Bill joining the Army with a night on the town. Hank Hill, the picture of level-headedness, gets stupid drunk and starts a fight at a club, then goes to get an Embarrassing Tattoo - Boomhauer intervenes to at least get it put where it couldn't be seen (justified as they're all young and inexperienced with beer). And another time, Bill went and stole a tank from the Army base where he works as a barber, after Dale uncovered documents which proved the Army was using him as a guinea pig back in the 80s for a group of half-walrus Arctic super-soldiers (as a contingency in case the Commies ever used the North Pole as an invasion route). He was drinking, and remembered that when he signed up, he wanted to be a tank driver. He drives it back to Rainey Street, and Hank, Dale and Boomhauer have to drive it back to the base; they accidentally drive it onto a target range for wargames, and Bill manages to evacuate everyone from the tank before it's hit. |

Wulfrik: At the victory feast of the Battle of the Thousand Skulls where he personally killed the enemy king Torgal of the Aeslings, Wulfrik manages to polish off eight barrels of mead (a feat that impresses the ogre mercenaries). Unfortunately, it also gets him to start boasting of his exploits, by the end of which he's personally punched three emperors, killed two of every horrible thing in the Chaos Wastes, and declared himself the equal of any warrior or beast in the world. The Chaos Gods decided to hold him to that by sending him visions of enemies he must kill all around the world, and he spends the book trying to get rid of the curse as it prevents him from becoming king of his tribe. By the end, he realizes it's not a curse but a blessing, and readily serves the gods as the High Executioner of Chaos. | |

Invoked in World of Warcraft, where consuming alcohol causes your character to underestimate the levels of enemy targets (the more you consume, the lower the targets' level looks). If you forgot you were drunk, you might see an enemy two levels above you and try and take it on, only to get stomped by a mob that's actually seven levels higher than you. | |

Happens often in Hardy Bucks, as the main cast is almost entirely composed of The Alcoholic. The most obvious case is when Eddie Durkan makes plans to meet with his Ex-Girlfriend for brunch to try and patch things up. The night before, he drunkenly invites everyone he knows to come over. Cue every other person dropping by one by one, ruining the make-up date, ending the relationship and sending Eddie into panic that lands him in the psychiatric hospital. | |

The Relativity story "5:24 AM" takes place before the start of the series, when Ravenswood was an alcoholic. At one point, he is given a vital clue (a photograph) while he's drunk, and in the morning he can't find it. Thanks to his drinking, he can't remember anything that happened after receiving the photo. He assumes his drunk self must have thrown it away for some reason, but he really has no idea. | |

When Felix sobers up, he learns that he agreed to become Gotrek's rememberer, that is, to follow Gotrek around the world as Gotrek seeks to find a foe capable of finishing him off and write down the Slayer's final moments. Problem is Gotrek is just too good a fighter to die (to his chagrin), so he and Gotrek have been at it for more than two decades. | |

One quest in The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim seems to be a Shout-Out to The Hangover. A guy in a tavern challenges you to a drinking contest. After four drinks, you black out... and wake up in the Temple of Dibella in Markarth. You then spend the next little while learning what you did last night due to Alcohol-Induced Stupidity, and trying to fix things. In the end, it turns out you were the victim of an elaborate prank by Sanguine, the Daedric Prince of Debauchery. This is also the reason a particular bow & arrow shop is known as The Drunken Huntsman. One of the owners, Elrindir, explains that they got the name from an incident where he and this brother Anoriath went hunting after consuming too much alcohol. Long story short, Anoriath thought his brother was a deer and he was Shot in the Ass with an arrow. |

The Darwin Awards have an explicit subclause in the rules about this trope.

In Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell, Childermass' research indicates that Clegg was a very capable and clever servant while sober, but would occasionally go on wild destructive drinking binges. His master, ignorant of this tendency, eventually entrusted him to deliver a priceless book of magic, but on the way he got into a drinking contest and after two days and two nights straight of carousing accepted a dare to eat the book. Upon sobering up he realized the depth of his mistake and fled, eventually being caught and becoming the last person in England to be hanged for book murder, the crime of destroying a book of magic, while the son he sired in the meantime was born with the book inscribed on his skin. | |

Bill Engvall has a bit about drinking a Bahama Mama while high on Vicodin which lead to him wandering off and agreeing to go parasailing with some strangers, and there's also Ron White's infamous "thrown out of a bar in New York" routine (which has him admit to a previous arrest where he decided to screw with the officer by giving "Tator Salad" as an alias, which went on his record). | |

The Chosen Six: Two Slytherin students, still under the effects of firewhiskey, decide to disguise themselves as werewolves during the Gryffindor-Ravenclaw Quidditch match... while Fenrir Greyback and his pack are rampaging across Britain. End result? Over 30 students injured in a stampede, five of which severely, and the two dumbasses expelled. | |

Please Turn Over: Two examples from Naked Revolt: Aunt Una gets drunk in Dr. Gay's office and makes a spectacle of herself in front of Blanche, eventually passing out on the floor. After Stella leaves Roger, he drinks scotch until he can hardly walk straight and mistakes a mirror for a coatrack. |

Mark Morton wrote "Redneck" as a self-deprecating song for Randy (who had to sing it), and specifically insulted his longstanding drinking problem and innumerable asinine drunken antics (particularly while onstage, as evidenced by the line "the laughingstock of your own fucking stage"). | |

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine: In Captain Sisko's backstory, he once got drunk and challenged a sober Vulcan to a wrestling match. Vulcans are three times stronger than humans, and much faster. Looking back, Sisko admits that he deserved the broken bones and bruised ego. In one episode where Jake was trying to get a rare baseball card as a present for his father, he at one point accused a high-ranking ambassador of assassinating the man who had the card after the latter disappeared. Rather than admit what was really going on to Captain Sisko, he claimed he was drunk when it happened. Given that Jake was a minor, Captian Sisko was understandably furious at him. |

Archer - Sterling Archer is very, very frequently drunk, claiming that if he were to ever quit drinking cold turkey, the resulting hangover would literally kill him. Everything he does, from shooting a reinforced door and hitting Brett, to performing complex intelligence operations while keeping up a running banter with Lana, he does drunk. In the Ask Archer AMA special, Sterling reveals a disturbing story of how he lost his virginity. |

The Hexer: Just like in the original short story, a few drunks decide to pester Geralt in an inn. He calmly announces that he's a witcher to them, but they have none of it and decide to go physical on a "fucking vagrant". After a few rounds of alcohol-fortified interrogations, Geralt and Dandelion have to escape their current predicament in Nilfgaardian captivity. They decide to set the shed they are locked in on fire. Then they realise they still hadn't found the secret passage leading out of the Torture Cellar beneath it. |

Most of the Fallout series games have alcoholic drinks as consumables the player can use. Doing so temporarily lowers the player character's Intelligence and carries a chance of addiction, but also temporarily increases their charisma and/or strength due to Liquid Courage. | |

Sparkles* stumbled into a livestream that he wasn't supposed to be in during the 2012 Honey Drive, blatantly refusing to leave when Duncan Jones (himself something of an offender) told him to and singing the wrong lyrics to songs. When Duncan finally managed to convince him to leave and he gave Simon Lane a goodbye hug, he nearly fell over twice. Then Lewis and Simon got drunk, playing "Jingle Cats" over the speakers repeatedly, talking about utter nonsense and nearly calling up Sips at one in the morning. It got so bad that Hannah Rutherford had to try and intervene to get them to stop... only for them to try and mute her. | |

After Mervyn, Malcolm, and Alex go out drinking with Jill, they return to their digs roaringly drunk and singing inanely as Jill tries to get them to their rooms. |

The Saga of the Jomsvikings: Sigvaldi and the other Jomsvikings get wasted at a feast prepared for them by King Svein Forkbeard of Denmark. The king then suggests for them all to make vows about heroic achievements they are going to accomplish; Sigvaldi takes the bait and vows that he will conquer Norway, and the other Jomsvikings vow they will support him in that. The next morning, a sobered-up Sigvaldi realizes they have publicly committed themselves to a goal that may be too big for them. Context implies this was all in the intent of King Svein, who saw to that the strongest beer would be served to the Jomsvikings. | |

It then plays a factor in why he doesn't immediately leave when Lalo unexpectedly arrives, despite Jimmy and Kim having a terrified reaction to his presence, with the latter out and out urging Howard frantically to go. It ends with Lalo shooting Howard in the head, with Howard realizing he's in danger far too late. | |

In Bodies Bodies Bodies, this turns out to have set off the entire plot. David drunkenly tried to open a wine bottle with his kukri for a TikTok video, and accidentally slit his own throat in the process. When the others discover his body and the bloody kukri lying next to it, they assume somebody murdered him, plunging them into a self-destructive cycle of paranoia that couldn't possibly be helped by their own inebriated states. | |

Isanami and the others concur, and next thing you know Saizo is killing it with his ninja techniques and asking Jinpachi to fry it with his lightning powers.

Must not be interested in throwing off the shackles of humanity and ascending to become an immortal godlike space robot.") and eventually ended up wandering the streets with no trousers on and clutching a traffic cone before being carted off by the police. | |

Treasure Island (1988) clearly attributes the majority of pirates' failures to this. In particular, Trelawny disposes of a dozen or more pirates using a plywood cutout of a bar selling fresh "rom" on the edge of a cliff. One of them even lags behind, sees the others all fall off the cliff, but still runs through it anyway. | |

In Boarding School Juliet, the recently-heartbroken Hazuki gets drunk and challenges a White Cat leader to race her up a mountain the next morning. (She also bets her friendship with their shared crush on the outcome.) Because of the setting's unrealism and the intervention/near-death of a third party, this doesn't end as badly as it could have, though it is still considered an incredibly dumb idea in-universe. | |

Ask Drunk Chara, of course. Chara's drunkenness even manages to affect an alternate version of himself- when Ask Frisk and Company's ghostly version of Chara possessed them, that Chara got their inebriated state along with their body. Hilarity ensues as AFAC!Chara wonders when Frisk moved the house to the ocean and falls for askers telling them that Flowey had become the Absolute God of Hyper-White-Chocolate and needing to be defeated by hugs (It Makes Sense in Context- white chocolate is AFAC!Chara's Berserk Button and a group of askers led by ClimaxStriker were trying to get Chara and Flowey in physical contact in order to draw out Asriel's soul, which Chara held). | |

In the Helluva Boss episode, "Spring Broken", Moxxie is shoved into a beer keg by some drunk spring breakers after they mistake him for a possum. After Millie sets him free, it's clear he is pretty much too drunk to function, with a shining moment being after he's eaten by a giant fish monster. Millie, who has just forced open the fish's mouth, holds out her hand for her husband to grab. Moxxie instead gives her a high five. Mille's nonverbal reaction screams You Have GOT to Be Kidding Me!. | |

Sunny Series: Dale —Sunny's older brother, who has been abusing pot and alcohol the whole of Sunny Side Up — shows up wasted to the fireworks show on July 4th, gets into a fight with his father in front of his family and family friends, and tries to take a swing at his dad. When his little sister Sunny tries to intervene by standing between them, he accidentally hits her hard enough to leave a bruise on her shoulder. He then storms off angrily. His parents decide this is the last straw after a year of bad behavior and send him off to Military School to sober up and fix his act. | |

A Song of Ice and Fire has a few spectacular examples. Generally attached to the premise that great quantities of alcohol are best kept away from lots of power, responsibility and/or socially precarious positions. Getting drunk and insulting not only your sister's husband, but his entire people quite publicly? And then threatening to cut your sister's unborn child out? Not clever, Viserys Targaryen. Not clever at all. Before the series proper even began, Prince Aerion "Brightflame" demonstrated that, after a long drinking session, it's not, perhaps, the wisest move to try turning into a dragon by finishing up with the local equivalent of Greek Fire crossed with napalm by way of white phosphorous as a chaser. Cersei and Tyrion Lannister can certainly drink themselves into deep trouble if you let them — but, at least he can talk himself back out of it more often than not (if in a somewhat mangled condition). When given enough chance to, that is. While Cersei manages to run the kingdom into the ground over only a few months via a host of extremely dumb moves, all of them fueled by blinkered pride, denial and a tanker-load of booze. Or, how about Robert Baratheon — you can spot his IQ dropping with the number of goblets or wineskins he's killed off: and, yes — it gets him killed by Hunting "Accident". Extra note: years of hiding in goblets didn't leave the Kingdom in either a good financial or political state, both of which contributed to your death, Mr. King. A lot of plot got kicked off by depressed avoidance... |

Used a lot in Jeeves and Wooster: Apparently, it's a bad idea to try to steal a policeman's helmet when there's a policeman inside it. The ultimate example against which all others in the canon must be compared is probably Gussie Fink-Nottle's inebriated speech at the Market Snodsbury Grammar School prize-giving in Right Ho, Jeeves. |

The Mayor of Casterbridge opens with the protagonist, Michael Henchard, getting drunk at a fair and, sick of quarrelling with his wife, auctioning her and their infant daughter off to the highest bidder (something he has threatened to do before). When he sobers up the next morning, he is horrified by the realisation of what he has done, but as their buyer, Richard Newson, was a sailor not local to the area, he has no idea where his wife and daughter have gone, and swears off alcohol for twenty-one years as penance. | |

A very popular subject of Hetalia: Axis Powers fanfiction, such as this, is having one or several of the Nations going out, getting hammered, and doing incredibly stupid things after. This is probably popularized by the fact that in canon, England, at the very least, can't hold his liquor at all, Germany and Prussia drink beer constantly, and the Nations aren't shown as being the most restrained of people even when sober. | |

In The Bible, after the Ark safely weathers The Deluge, Noah plants a vineyard and proceeds to get drunk from the wine it produces. He winds up lying passed out and naked in his tent; one of his sons, Ham, sees him and goes and tattles to his brothers (which, in the morality of that society, is a major act of filial disrespect). Ham's brothers Shem and Japheth carefully cover their father with some clothing (even walking backwards so they don't accidentally see his nakedness). This act of drunken carelessness by Noah (previously described as "a just man and perfect in his generations" who "found grace in the eyes of the LORD") and the subsequent disrespect of Noah's son Ham for his father was believed to have far-reaching consequences, with Ham's son Canaan and his descendants divinely cursed to be servants to the descendants of Noah's other two sons, especially the Semites. The result was the fall of Canaan to the Israelites many centuries later. The Book of Proverbs has a passage which explicitly states that whoever is led astray by alcohol "is not wise." |

BBC presenter Sarah Kennedy was frequently accused of Drinking on Duty. This was frequently alleged but never conclusively proven: medication issues and cumulative lack of sleep from several years of very early starts in the morning may have been the cause of the slurring and poor judgement calls. Shortly after leaving the BBC, however, Sarah lost her driving licence in a proven drunk-driving case. | |

Jake Hama of The Secret World is frequently guilty of this - especially given that he's such a drunkard that you can track him down just by following the empty bottles he's left in his wake. To begin with, he thought it was a good idea to accept an extremely dangerous job from Masao Tanaka, a man he was blackmailing. Quite apart from the fact that Jake had just woke up hungover on a park bench just prior to receiving this mission, he didn't seem to realize that Tanaka might have pulled a Uriah Gambit on him - and still doesn't. Likewise, Jake went on to follow the directions Tanaka had given him and entered the Tokyo Exclusion Zone with no way of defending himself, no way of escaping, and no way of calling for help. True, given the Masquerade, he didn't know the place was a Filth-infected hellhole populated by rampaging infectees, The Legions of Hell, murderous ghosts, hacked Orochi mechs and the Black Signal... but it's still pretty stupid given that official news reports had mentioned that the military had quarantined the area to prevent the spread of "an unknown pathogen" - and that they were prepared to enforce the quarantine by gunning down anyone trying to escape. Also, in his attempts to find Tanaka's missing daughter, Jake has decided to capture the Rabbit Killer, the assassin hunting said daughter down. To put things in perspective, the Rabbit Killer a highly-experienced Professional Killer at peak physical fitness with the power of Super-Speed and Blood Magic at her fingertips, and is also armed with swords, a number of firearms and two additional bodies; Jake is an overweight alcoholic armed only with a few bottles of sake. Last but not least, Jake decided the best way to get the Rabbit Killer's attention was to dress up in a rabbit costume taken from the Dream Palace's furry room and stand around getting shitfaced until she came looking for him. Once again, Jake is too drunk to realize that the assassin clearly considers him Beneath Notice. |

Rats SMP: Played for Drama, at least in part. When Apo is captured by the Janitor early on Day 29, the rats find the Wine Cellar cellar to the Mansion while locating the key to free them. The group eventually splits off, and Bek, El, Jimmy, Krow, Oli, Oliver, and Will proceed to intentionally sabotage the Boiler Room so that the pressure in the machinery builds up, causing it to explode. El attributes the severe lack in judgement to this trope, on top of wanting the Janitor to be driven out of the Mansion, though Will is later confirmed to not be in on the alcoholism while coming up with or executing the plan. The Janitor is not happy about it, considering his response is to capture a random rat in a cage and start screaming at them, accusing them of causing the explosion… and the rat he captures isn't even in on the Boiler Room plot. | |

Game of Thrones: Viserys stumbles drunkenly into a Dothraki feast and proceeds to insult everyone and threaten them with a sword, breaking a major Dothraki taboo. Stupid as he may have been, it seems from his drunken behaviour that even Viserys needed some liquid courage to blunder forward. Robert's demise comes at the tusks of a monstrous boar when he insists on delivering the final blow despite being so drunk he can barely stand. Though he may have had something more than wine as young Lancel Lannister was in charge of his wineskin and was suspiciously knighted soon afterwards. Joffrey's tour of the Great Sept includes a stop at the tomb of Aerion Brightflame (Maester Aemon's Big Brother Bully), who died drunkenly believing drinking a cup of wildfire (a substance that is the universe's counterpart to Greek Fire and/or napalm) would turn him into a dragon. In defiance of all warnings, Tyrion — who has been Drowning My Sorrows all the way from King's Landing — makes no attempt to hide his identity in a Volantene brothel, even talking openly about his former wealth and position. |

Disco Elysium: The game starts with the Player Character waking up after a three day bender with no memory of What Did I Do Last Night?... Or any other night for that matter. Playing through the first few days, you begin to piece together just some of the many idiotic things you did while blind drunk, including trashing your hotel room, breaking the sink in your hotel bathroom (which you share with your partner) and doing something in there which makes it smell indescribable, losing your badge, losing your gun, flushing your police paperwork down the toilet and blocking it for everyone, having a party on one of the rooftops, publicly threatening people with your police gun, publicly threatening to commit suicide with your police gun, selling your police gun to prevent yourself from actually killing yourself with it, using the proceeds to buy more booze, harassing a young female bartender so much that she quit a job she liked just so she'd never have to look at you again, driving your police car over a building into the sea (destroying an advertising billboard in the process, blocking all transport to the other side of town), reimagining yourself as an apocalyptic figure called "Tequila Sunset" and going drinking with a band of hobos before playing loud disco music on repeat in your room, followed by playing sad music and 'shouting along to it', followed by an attempt at either suicide or a suicidally irresponsible masturbation session. During the final conversation in the game you learn this behaviour is endemic and Harry has been repeating this same pattern for the last half decade. The game's mechanics encourage this. Recreational drugs increase a specific primary stat, which boosts all the skills under that stat; the higher the skills go, the more likely they are to turn into an obsession, pushing your player character into doing and saying weird and stupid things. Alcohol is associated with the FYZ stat, which is something of a Token Evil Teammate stat; unlike INT, PSY and MOT, which can get pompous, delusional and fixated respectively but are largely benign, every skill under the umbrella of FYZ (apart from Shivers) has a stupid, aggressive, macho personality and encourages your player character towards paranoid violence, masochistic addiction-chasing and egomania. This simulates the lowered inhibitions, resistance to pain and emotional numbness caused by drinking. If you choose to embrace Fascism as a political ideology, you will get double the stat bonus from drinking alcohol, allowing you to discover new ways of destroying yourself, hurting others, and engaging in stupidity. |

The backstory to Dogma is caused by this. Loki was the Angel of Death until the Tenth Plague, where afterwards, he and his friend Bartleby get drunk. Bartleby talks him into quitting, so an inebriated Loki goes to God, turns in his flaming sword, and gives God the finger. They're both kicked out of Heaven as punishment, and the Metatron, the voice of God, laments that it ruined things for everyone else, because after that, God forbade angels from imbibing alcohol (as soon as they drink it, they immediately spit it back out). | |

Captain Jack Sparrow often stumbles & slurs his words, but he is the best Pirate anyone has ever seen. In Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, his alcoholism turns him into this trope by causing him to trade his magic compass for a bottle of rum. Doing so releases the vengeful ghosts of the Spaniards he'd trapped in a magic prison decades ago, allowing them to come looking for him for revenge. | |

While the Yogscast are generally okay, they do have their moments as well, mostly during their Christmas livestreams: Sparkles* stumbled into a livestream that he wasn't supposed to be in during the 2012 Honey Drive, blatantly refusing to leave when Duncan Jones (himself something of an offender) told him to and singing the wrong lyrics to songs. When Duncan finally managed to convince him to leave and he gave Simon Lane a goodbye hug, he nearly fell over twice. Then Lewis and Simon got drunk, playing "Jingle Cats" over the speakers repeatedly, talking about utter nonsense and nearly calling up Sips at one in the morning. It got so bad that Hannah Rutherford had to try and intervene to get them to stop... only for them to try and mute her. Lewis Brindley, when drunk, proves that he's Not So Above It All, blatantly cheating and going on an unprovoked rant. He also inadvertently derailed a Civilization V livestream by drinking too much gin and having to go home early, and while food poisoning was allegedly to blame as well Lewis would go on to admit that he was embarrassed. Duncan has earned the nickname "Drunkan" from both fans and the other Yogs, due to his drinking on livestreams and the ensuing chaos that results. There is a story about Turpster getting very drunk during a pub quiz at i49, in which he and some friends ended up in an overflow room since there were so many people there. After another team from the overflow room emerged victorious, Turps decided that this meant everyone in the overflow room had won and tried going up with the winning team. Hat Films have more than a few stories about getting drunk and behaving stupidly, some relating to them and others featuring in their "funny news" story. Their Musical Jam livestream for the 2015 Jingle Jam started off relatively normally and got progressively weirder as they drank more. Now-former member Ridgedog infamously got too drunk within an hour of a charity livestream, then randomly left, fell asleep and left his colleague Bebop to try and host the stream. Due to Bebop's inexperience and disappointment in Ridge from fans, on top of numerous technical difficulties, the stream was by far the least successful, raising only $3,000 (for perspective, the livestream with Zoey Proasheck that followed raised $55,000). |

In Final Fantasy X, as the party prepares to cross the Moonflow, Auron recalls his previous trip to the Moonflow with the late Braska and Jecht, which ended in the alcoholic and drunk Jecht attacking a shoopuf, forcing Braska to pay for damages out of his own pocket. After that incident, Jecht never drank again. | |

Very often in Asterix: In The Laurel Wreath, Vitalstatistix and Obelix both overindulge at a family gathering, prompting Vitalstatistix to make a suicidal bet that he can bring them a stew spiced with Caesar's laurel wreath, and Obelix to enthusiastically endorse this stupid idea until there's no way anyone can back down — slurring "zigactly!" ("farpaitement!" in French). Asterix spends much of the rest of the adventure passive-aggressively using the word "zigactly" to remind Obelix of how much of a fool he made of himself. In Asterix in Britain, the Roman soldiers are forced to sample hundreds of wine barrels to find one that contains magic potion. The unit starts out perfectly coordinated as they tap open the barrels, drink a little, and move to the next ones. We watch over the panels as everyone gets progressively less coordinated until they're lying in unconscious piles, at which point the Roman who did get magic potion decides to start a fight. In The Chieftain's Shield, a Roman soldier, frequently disciplined for his excessive drinking, is ordered to dress as a Gaul and infiltrate a bar to seek information. As soon as he gets out of his superior's sight he makes a beeline for the bar, gets hammered and starts talking in Latin phrases, declining his Alcohol Hic as 'hic! haec! hoc!', and complaining about his Centurion, making his disguise so pathetic that the Gauls express a certain amount of pity for him. While it goes without saying that he learns nothing about the location of the shield, he does manage to blatantly give away every detail of the Romans' plot to find it. Tremensdelirius, The Alcoholic legionary in Caesar's Gift, is made of this trope. He begins the story by sneaking off to get drunk the day before his retirement, and, despite being urged to keep quiet so the rest of the army doesn't find him, decides to start singing really loudly. When he gets discovered, he starts badmouthing Julius Caesar. When Caesar, who is preparing land gifts for the retiring legionaries, finds out, he decides to give Tremensdelirius the deeds to the Gaulish village full of super-powered Roman-hating madmen, in full knowledge that when Tremensdelirius goes to claim the land the villagers will make his life a living hell. On his way there, Tremensdelerius gets drunk and swaps the absurdly valuable deed with an innocent innkeeper in return for wine. |

Markiplier, before he had to quit drinking due to ALDH2 deficiency: The whole premise of the series Drunk Minecraft. The only conclusion where you get a group of drunk adults playing Minecraft with an admin that's happy to give them whatever they want, provided they don't piss the admin off, which of course they do. Somewhat inverted by Mark during his playthrough of the Five Nights at Fuckboy's series, where he downs a shot of cinnamon whiskey (or two, in some cases) at the beginning of each episode. While he does eventually get drunk, he is still coherent and able to pay attention to the game, for the most part. During his playthrough of the first game, he actually takes time during some of the episodes to talk to the viewers, updating them on what he's been up to and thanking them for their support and patronage over the years. |

This happens frequently in Workaholics, with the main characters often either at work, or drunk somewhere (usually on the roof of their house) — or both. In the episode "Real Time" they get drunk and leave their boss insulting voice-mails, and then try to race to the office ahead of her to delete them the next day. Only they're still drunk, and they keep drinking to avoid being hungover-which means they have to do everything from taking the bus, to stealing kids' bikes, to skitching to get to the office. When they could have just called a cab. | |

Many Red Dead Redemption 2 players remember the early story mission "A Quiet Time". It entails Arthur Morgan and his friend Lenny heading to a saloon to relax. What started as a plan on having only "one drink" culminates in them drinking much, much more than one. Bar brawls, line dances, slap fights, attempts to evade arrest, and a monstrous hangover ensue. The mission also gave us the sight of an outlaw drunk off his ass shouting "LENNY!" every six seconds, something that would become one of Roger Clark'snote Arthur's VA most requested lines. | |

Bazil Broketail: When an expeditionary force consisting of Argonathi legions and their Czardhan and Kassim allies arrives at the besieged Og Bogon capital of Koubha, one of the Czardhan knights, Hervaze of Gensch, gets drunk and comes up with the bright idea to challenge Bazil to a Duel to the Death, intending to keep his head as a trophy. Never mind that Bazil is a soldier of an allied army, nor that he's currently unarmed. Hervaze gets knocked off his horse for his trouble, though not without seriously injuring the dragon. After ingesting some liquid courage, a street thug in Marneri named Kuvsly thinks it is a good idea to call Bazil an "overgrown lizard" to his face. The first time he says it, Bazil just gives him a Death Glare. When he proves stupid enough to ignore the warning and is about to say that again, he doesn't get to finish the sentence. |

Abby pleads with him to at least not drink in front of the children, but he calls her a nag for it. This includes chasing his hat when it blows off his head while he's on a ferry. He falls overboard and drowns in the river because of this. Richard, who's been drinking himself, gets in the car with his Drunk Driver friend Seth behind the wheel. He's the only survivor of the two-car accident that kills Seth, his other friend, and Georgie's music teacher who was in the car they hit. |

To a truly ridiculous extend in Dingo Doodles. The Wild Magic sorcerer Sips got drunk one time and killed it at karaoke. When he tried to cast the dancing lights spell to give his performance a bit of an extra flare, he got a wild magic surge, and created a 700 foot radius (about 213 meters) area of Dead Magic. And he was in a very magic-heavy town. AND there was a Tarrasque magically imprisoned underneath the town. He accidentally released the apocalypse while drunk. | |

Family Guy: Brian Griffin tends to be the voice of reason in the Griffin family, but whenever he gets drunk he will often do something incredibly stupid. Odds are, Peter will be right along with him. In "Underage Peter", when alcohol is banned for every under the age of 50, it is revealed that Opie is not mentally disabled, just constantly drunk. Funnily enough, this trope is why Mayor West raised the drinking age. |

In Finding Joy in Your Long-Distance Relationship- the sequel to Worlds Apart- Giles falls victim to the enchanted beer rather than Buffy when he buys a drink to justify visiting Xander at the bar, although 'Caveman Giles' is more interested in making a fort out of books than attacking anyone. | |

In The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt it is possible for Geralt to get hammered with his witcher buddies, until one of them gets the bright idea to "summon bitches" with Geralt's girlfriend's magical megascope. Fortunately they don't end up contacting anything dangerous in the process, just making asses of themselves. | |

How I Met Your Mother has this all over the place. Ted's apartment is above a bar and they spend a lot of their free time there drinking. From time to time, one or more of them gets really drunk and does something really stupid. Played for Laughs. The "Home Wreckers" episode had a game where the friends had to guess whether Marshal was drunk or a kid when he did something stupid like putting fireworks in the microwave (Drunk) or when he tried to ride his bike down an extension ladder from the roof of a two story house (Kid). |

In Kingdom of Loathing, getting too drunk results in normal adventures being overridden by Drunken Stupors, which occasionally result in very stupid actions. | |

Shadow of the Sith: Ochi of Bestoon is a severe alcoholic in addition to an assassin. This is not a good combo to say the least, and it's only compounded when he gets ahold of an ancient Sith dagger that starts whispering dark thoughts to him, with the ensuing Sanity Slippage driving him to drink even more. He resultantly ends up making some very bad decisions under the influence, such as killing Rey's parents mid-questioning or refusing to search Jakku, and it ultimately gets him killed when he drives his busted-up speeder into a dangerous area while totally wasted from a self-made Gargle Blaster; cue fatal crash into a sinkhole. | |

Now-former member Ridgedog infamously got too drunk within an hour of a charity livestream, then randomly left, fell asleep and left his colleague Bebop to try and host the stream. Due to Bebop's inexperience and disappointment in Ridge from fans, on top of numerous technical difficulties, the stream was by far the least successful, raising only $3,000 (for perspective, the livestream with Zoey Proasheck that followed raised $55,000). | |

Subverted in Downton Abbey. This trope seems to be the reason Tom goes on very rude political rant during dinner. Then, it turns out that one of the guests slipped something in his drink because he thought it'd be funny to see the Irish former-chauffeur in-law acting foolish. The rest of the family does not agree and are not amused. | |

Cobra Kai: Whenever a West Valley High student (or anyone else, for that matter) decides to pound a few, it would be easier to list the times when something bad doesn't happen. Given the youth and/or immaturity of many of the characters, the number of at least somewhat competent martial artists among them (as to be expected from a Sequel Series to The Karate Kid), and the ruthless attitudes encouraged by the Cobra Kai philosophy, adding alcohol to the mix leads to a number of mind-blowingly stupid decisions. One of the best examples, late in the first season, is a drunk Miguel accidentally clobbering Samantha while trying to attack Robby. In season 2, Samantha engages in a drinking contest with Tory, which she wins... but gets inebriated enough to kiss Miguel where Tory can see and be in no condition to return home, causing Robby to take her to crash at Johnny's place when the police arrive to break up the party. The latter act reignites Johnny and Daniel's feud due to the misunderstanding in the morning, and the former kicks off a massive school brawl that results in numerous injuries, including Sam getting her arm sliced open, and Miguel's near death. |
