9 Ways Drunk Adults Are Like Toddlers

Adults are not so different from toddlers when drunk!

9 Ways Drunk Adults Are Like Toddlers

Drunk adults and toddlers are eerily similar in a number of ways, although babies are not to blame for their low levels of cognitive functioning. Adults love to ogle over the youthful mannerisms of these tiny humans without realizing that they themselves embody the same juvenile characteristics after a night of debauchery. One of the most common similarities between drunks and toddlers is an overall lack of motor skills.

1. Crawling.

They don't call it a bar crawl for nothing. When your friends have to hoist you over your shoulder as you stumble home, it kind of reminds you of how dad would have to carry you inside after a long car ride home. You're pathetic.

2. Walking.


Or waddling rather. It's not as endearing when you're in the middle of a sobriety test, and the next step is jail. Also, it's OK if little Timmy doesn't know where his nose is. You, not so much.

3. Eating.

Not only will you grab anything you can get your hands on, but you'll also spill 90 percent of your food on yourself. When you find it the next day - you'll throw a tantrum. Clearly, the choo choo train tactic didn't translate so well.

4. Sleeping.

Or in the adult world, passing out. Definitely not putting out the vibe when you can't even hold yourself up right. You look like a kindergartener who couldn't hold out until nap time, and it's not uncommon to wake up confused.

5. Talking.

Such a simple task, right? However, It may even be possible to have a more stimulating conversation with a babbling two year old than someone three car bombs deep. All I heard was "Put it on my tab."

6. Throwing up.

Unavoidable. Just blame it on stomach poisoning and move on. Your friends don't have to know you're a lightweight. (They know.)

7. Going potty.

The line for the bathroom always look like a department store during a door buster sale. Too bad you already broke the seal. It's alright, maybe your supervision brought wipes.

8. Getting rowdy.

Toddlers always have an excess of energy, just like you after your beer muscles set in or the DJ spins your favorite track. You become blissfully unaware of how embarrassing you actually look, and you couldn't even explain yourself if you tried.

9. Flirting.

Children are always waving at each other and coordinating games with the crew they just met during freeze tag. Replace the waving with a wink and freeze tag with dirty dancing, and you've got yourself a typical Friday night.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
