This is a question Drunk Parents

Watching the old man swing home from the pub and start arguing with Newsnight can be either funny, slightly unnerving or just plain terrifying. Tell us about daft things parents have done while they've been in their cups.

cowboy dad and the a r u
i am posting this fr my son cos he is to young to be here and he would post it him self if he had a chance.

My dad used to do western and civil war re-enactments and usually did a couple of dozen every year, and also went to a western club every friday night.
once at a civil war re-enactment on the Saturday he and many of his friends had a damned good skin full, and took the field of battle in a very very drunken state. After struggling for a few minuets to reload his musket he gave up a played dead for the remainder of the battle.

taking advantage of the nurses who went around the field dispensing medical alcohol to the wounded any dead.

at the end of the skirmish they all get up again and form a line in front of the crowd, then they present arms and fire a volley into the air so far all was well and there had been injury's until the call to shoulder arms was bellowed out and my dad being hopeless with co-ordination when sober caught his thumb in the trigger guard as he shoulder his musket trapping his thumb and with a scream to be proud of promptly snapped his thumb and passed out.

at a western meeting he and his brother and a friend had a another skin full and ran out of money for the taxi back home so being drunk and armed to the teeth with six shooters and knives and looking like a hedge dweller on a bad day they had to walk back . along the way one of them drew his colt and started shooting blanks into the air and drunks being drunks the rest followed.
now this part of there journey home was through a housing estate and several people must have called the police reporting gun shots because out of now where came the armed response unit followed by several police cars and dog vans, my dad being who he is started to try to explain to these armed cops that they only fired blanks and to prove it said he would show them. next thing he is lying face down on the ground with a gun pointed at him and several black clad cops jumping on him to restrain him.
this is the best cure for sobering up some one, needles to to say he and his fellow drinkers all got arrested and charged with disturbing the piece and had there guns and knives confiscated .
this all happened in the mid 80's and i dread to think what the out come would be now.
there are several more like this that he has done but they can wait for a another question

Are you sure your son didn't really write this?
It appears to have been written by a child.

Nah.
disasterprone isn't illiterate and isn't a complete dick.

Hi! Thanks for that.
No, it isn't me. I think whoever it is should probably get out more.

Might be worth trawling the responses to old posts of yours to see who objects most strongly.

Really?
I've got so far under your skin by making silly remarks on a silly website that you have registered a new account to fully express your infuriation/infatuation?

I mean ... I know I'm special ... but that sounds pretty fucking tragic to me, XmanX.

To be honest Sham
I'm not one of the people you normally bully, I am one of the old QOTW people that think you have made it shit, now dance monkey. *throws peanuts*
(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 11:22, closed)
To be honest, what makes QOTW shit is the obvious bullshitting, group therapy posts and whining whenever someone makes an irreverent comment.
I'm personally of the view that /talk and QOTW be merged and offtopic closed.

It would dilute down the worst beakering and twaterry on /talk and toughen up some of QOTW's less muscular users.

I think we should go back 3 years to when the questions got answered more sensibly.

(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 12:52, closed)
Surely it would be better (or at least funnier) if people answered the questions LESS sensibly.

(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 13:27, closed)
Um.... you got me there
I think more sensibly, on balance, but with better jokes.

So hang on, you're appointing yourself A Defender Of The Internet?
Do you think you may possibly be taking a page for silly stories on a comedy website a touch too seriously?
(, Thu 3 Mar 2011, 11:27, closed)
Actually on reflection, I reckon this might even be a Shambles comedy account.
Nobody does this FOR REAL do they?
