21st B-day memories?

michelle2677 · #1 10-12-2006, 06:33 PM

Although mine was quite a few years ago, I still remember it like it was yesterday.

(well....the high points anyway!) oh yeah. It started out innocent enough. Went out to eat with a few friends, drank a few mixed drinks. I have to add-the place we were eating at had a bar on the other side of the building and I used to work there. As soon as we were done, the red-headed sluts started flying. 6 later we head down the road to go bar hopping. I don't remember ever drinking that much. It seems like as soon as everyone got wind it was my 21st b-day they felt they needed to get me MORE drunk than I already was. Time to leave. It's 3:00 and I'm on the verge of the inevitable. My friend of a friend (which is even worse) drove me back home and I ended up throwing up in her Lincoln Navigator. claaasssyyyy!!!! I believe she was cleaning out the door pocket for a few days (or at least that's what I hear). I spent the rest of the evening sleeping on the tile floor of the bathroom and wishing I were dead. My mother took me to eat the next day. Being my 21st birthday, she wanted to buy me some type of alcohol, but there was no way. I took one wiff of her wine and had flashbacks from hell. I think it was at LEAST another week before I drank again.

Anyone care to share?

Lets see if I can recall....it wasn't all that exciting.

I know there was dinner with family. Then a friend picked me up - we were going to have a low-key evening at an area bar. So we went. We met a group of people we knew there and they found out it was my birthday (I wasn't shouting it from rooftops or anything) so they wouldn't let me buy any drinks.

I didn't get fall-down drunk, and it would still be years until I got sick from drinking. Pretty non-eventful. If I recall correctly I was completey bummed because the object of my affection went home to Pennsylvania for Christmas (my birthday is near Christmast) so I wasn't too keen to have a huge party.

what a waste.

I vowed to make it to my 21 shots...we went to a bar and about 30 of my friends joined in on the fun. The waitress was so happy I had brought her all of this business on a Wed. night that she offered me free shots ALL NIGHT! Needless to say, I had EVERYTHING...Irish carbombs, Incredibkle hulks, Red headed sl*ts...I dont remember anything past shot 13, and my friends had to drag me out after shot 19!!! I threw up 4 times the next morning and probably had alcohol poisoning...

Needless to say, this was 2 months ago

LOL

That is so funny because I just KNEW that people would be buying me free shots all night. Uh, no. I did get hammered though, and that's about all I remember. I too, buttered up to the bartender and he took pretty good care of me. The hell with my cheap friends!

omg. you won't believe this, but reading that triggered a memory. ok, now. 21st birthday was the first time I did shots out of a test tube where both ends were open. you put one end in your mouth and the scantily clad waiter puts the other in his mouth and blows. well, I wasn't expecting that and it came out of my nose. sexy, eh?

Mine was on a FREAKING Sunday, when all the cool bars were closed. I went in the liquor store Sat night, at 11:58(two minutes before they closed), and didn't get to the checkout until 12:00(figuring that WHEN they carded me, they couldn't do anything, since it was now technically my Bday. Those bastards didn't even card me!!! I was soooo pissed, I mean, could I have been going in there for an additional year or two, if I'd had the balls to try it?

My BEST 21 Bday memory is taking my best friend from High School out for his 21st. He got totally wasted, and was running for the bathroom, and threw up, ALL OVER THIS BIG GUY IN A COWBOY HAT!

All down the cowboy's pant leg! I apologized profusely for him, and told him that it was his 21st, and ODDLY, the cowboy was FINE with it! I'd have bet that we were about to be castrated.

I was in san fran at the time...and I do not recall anymore than that! pathetic I do however recall my 22nd birthday when I got pummeled by some amazon woman because I flipped her off when she crossed over the yellow line as I yelling out the window "where'd you get your license? sears!!?" ...the u-turn and orange charger barrelling down on me in my rearview will never escape my memory.

I remember a party with my Dad being there, and it was a company party...but free booze. I had just moved to Little Rock with Dad 2 months before and didnt know anyone and hadnt started back at Uni yet...thats about all I remember (aka too much sauce!)

Let's just say I haven't had a gin and tonic since.

I wasn't a drinker before I was 21 (I know, weird, etc) and that was the drink suggested by my boyfriend. Great, thanks for the rubbing alcohol.

Gin is so gross.

my friend drinks those. very gross.

my 21st was pretty crazy. i was also a non-drinker before then, and my friends got me wasted. i got free birthday shots at all the bars i went to, and at the one, the dude decided i was too cocky, so he made me a terrible, terrible shot called the horny scout master ... blue triplesec, bailey's, and some other disgusting odds and ends. i knocked it back, and it was nasty, but i was ok ... the bartender was pretty impressed and said he usually made it for asshole frat boys to knock them on their asses ... aside from that, i don't remember much, aside from teaching some calc to this kid i went to school with, and testing my sobriety by pronouncing "statistics."

wait, wait, hold up. Are you saying you are good at Calculus and Statistics?!?!?! Cause I need a tutor, bad...

No, that sounds cool. Free birthday drinks are the bomb. Wait, I forgot to add that I looked hot on my 21st. Very important.
Oh, and my whole family drove up to have dinner with me. Like 3 hours drive.

Um, wait..."Horny Scout Master"?!?!?

YES, it is! I think the drunkest I ever was, was on that damned Evergreen tasting dreck! And I experienced that twice!!!

[stupid MF]
AMber, remember a couple weeks ago, when Kroger's had Raspberry Stoli for $5/fifth? They had TONS of Gordon's Gin for $5/fifth. I couldn't bring myself to even buy one.....(shudder). I can still remember hanging from the toilet rim, for hours, my friends knocking on the door, "David, what can we do?"
Me>"just go home, and let me die!".
