Do You Have The Fear From Last Night?

Hope you got out a bank loan, because you spent the last dregs of your pay cheque at that bar last night, buying shots for strangers. Your generosity knew no bounds – like an inebriated Jay Gatsby. What you spent on kebabs and taxis could have kept you in hot dinners for a week. Looks like it’s the cornflakes diet for you next week L. But the silver lining to this is that at least you were the most popular person at the kebab shop (until your card got declined…).

You’ve got The Fear because… You’ve spent all your money

Question: “Did I really say that?”
Answer: Yes. Your “hilarious” joke about your boss’ wife totally fell flat.   
When the booze hits your belly, your mouth runs away with you, and you have the awful tendency of saying exactly the wrong thing at exactly the wrong time. Whether that’s spilling someone else’s secret, accidentally insulting that gorilla-like bouncer, or telling your partner what you really think of their mother. Oh well, at least you were too busy bean-spilling to hit the dance floor.  
Fancy a bit of self-censorship? Instead of insulting your friends, tell cancer where to go.

You’ve got The Fear because… You said something terrible

Picture this: Last night, you thought you were doing The Worm, but everyone else at the party thought that you were having some sort of seizure. To make matters worse, your jazz hands took out a row of pints, and your Highland Fling got you flung out of the bar. There are daddy-longlegs with more natural rhythm than you last night. The bright side – at least you were too busy throwing shapes to say anything stupid!  
Bad dancing + camera phones are not a good combo.

You’ve got The Fear because… You danced like a four-legged spider

You’ve got a good recollection of your night - but no idea how you got that bruise on your knee or why your back is aching like you’ve carried a piano down a staircase. Probably from throwing some over-enthusiastic shapes on the dance floor. Pat yourself down and make sure nothing is too badly sprained - and maybe bring a pair of sensible shoes for your next night out. Let’s just hope no-one saw you giving it your all. Or at least didn’t capture it on camera and upload it to YouTube.

You’ve got The Fear because… You’ve got a MDI\* (\*mysterious drunk injury)

You’ve woken up in a cold sweat, and with your foggy morning brain need a moment to work out why… until you check your phone. Not only have you repeatedly bum-dialled Adam, the first contact in your phone book, you’ve sent a plethora of dodgy texts to dodgy exes. You know what totally tells someone that you’re not over them? Telling them that you are over them – at 3am, via a picture message of you taken in Infernos.

You’ve got The Fear because… You were TUI\* (Texting Under The Influence)

You’re A-OK and 100% free from The Fear. You know your limits and don’t tend to get outta-control drunk. For you, there’s no fun to be had waking up terrified that you have no friends, money, or dignity left (in that order). Especially now that everyone is so phone-happy, what happens in the bar no longer stays in the bar.

Nope, you’re fine because… You didn’t do anything silly

You’ve got your coat, wallet, and bag – and most importantly, your dignity. You don’t have The Fear, because you rationed your booze, like a sensible chap. You’re not a stick in the mud, but you do know your limits and are past the stage where coming home with mysterious objects and vomit in your hair is fun.

Nope, you’re fine because… You were just merry

You’re one of those rare creatures – still charming after a few drinks. You didn’t vomit, drunk text, dance like a loon, or offend anyone. Or if you did, you somehow did it discreetly enough that no-one noticed. However, while things are outwardly looking sunny for you, you’ve still got a pounding headache and a mouth as dry as a cat’s litter box (and just as fragrant). So you’re not feeling so big and clever right now.
