Can confirm you can get so drunk you cant remember last night

Hell froze over: I heard Lindybeige complain about long stories and tangents 🤣

As a former professional drinker yes, when a guy says “what happened last night?!” He means it

As an ex bartender who used to drink a LOT I can promise you that having no memories after several drinks is very common. Total blackout that I had no idea how I got home is quite rare. But many parties were turned to a "slide show" in my memory. Not bragging. But it happens.

Never get drunk alone is good stance. Military colleagues used the expression 'drink to remember, don't drink to forget' is another one that stuck with me.

The phrasing of alcohol or drugs is probably just our societal problem of not treating alcohol as a hard drug

I have been so drunk that I woke up the next day at 7 pm with no memory of the second half of my night, or how I ended up where I slept

You can indeed get so drunk you forget the night before. If you have never experienced it then you are probably a responsible drinker lol.

it's an unspoken social guideline that any embarrassing act you commit while drunk must be forgotten by you and your peers.

Woman: I remember why we left the party. Lloyd: let me show you how a medieval trebuchet works...

I wish my "worst drunk experiences" were as mild as Lindy's. My ones are not even in the same category.

With that title I expected a rant about opium and absynthe, not cider and beer lol

I chugged a whole 750ml of vodka one night and I cannot recall the entire night but the things I was told I did were remembered by everyone else very vividly

As an alcoholic (3 years sober) who does a lot of work with AA and speaks to and works with other alcoholics all the time, it fascinates me to hear from someone who has no concept of the disease or how it works. It amazes me that there are actual humans out there who believe ‘blackout’ doesn’t exist and have never vomited from alcohol poisoning. Thanks Lindy for your unique (and dare I say, down to earth and totally normal) perspective on this matter ❤

I have heard this advice when it comes to drinking. "Never get drunk when you are sad, only when you are happy". I think that is a good advice. CAn't remember who said that to me.

We all need to get Lindy properly pissed 😂

Him finding the book of questions again certainly has provided him with a lot of content. And yes, damn you Cath!

i have literally been black out drunk on many many many occasions . i have no memories of vast parts of my nocturnal youth . i have slept with women, stolen vehicles, had fist fights and even climbed into bed with my new girlfriends mother all whilst totally blacked out . i swear on every ounce of my being that at best i have one or two blurry still images in my head . the final straw was the violence . i was assaulting my friends and even hospitalised a man i had a fight with all while i have no single memory of the event . i have had to remain sober since the age of 20 one day at a time , as i was a total nightmare and when your friends are hesitant to have a casual lunch beer with you on a friday afternoon for fear of being assaulted or caught up in a car chase or when your brother buys handcuffs and zip ties to take to your bbq and issues them to your friends and instructs them to pin me down and restrain me if needed , you know its time to stop drinking

My suspicions are confirmed, Lindy is a certified square. If he experienced how people drink down in Portugal, especially during warmer months he would screan.

You should never drink when you’re unhappy. You should only drink in good company, for leisure, to celebrate. I like a drink but have gone weeks without it. I normally don’t drink during lent. Ive always followed that rule. I got it from reading some GK Chesterton. “Drink because you are happy, but never because you are miserable. Never drink when you are wretched without it, or you will be like the grey-faced gin-drinker in the slum; but drink when you would be happy without it, and you will be like the laughing peasant of Italy. Never drink because you need it, for this is rational drinking, and the way to death and hell. But drink because you do not need it, for this is irrational drinking, and the ancient health of the world.”

I never thought I needed to hear Lindy’s answer to this question, but now I can’t resist finding out.

Worst drunk I've been on? The day we buried my older brother... woke up in detox. Never found someone I ever felt as close to.

I can honestly say that I have both lied about not being able to remember (saying things), and plenty of instances where I can't remember until someone reminds me. And also where I just can't remember to this day: fell of my bicycle, nearly broke my arm, nobody was with me so nobody can remind me where it was. Don't even know what route I took. When I woke up my bed and I were covered in blood, couldn't remember why (came back later but as I said, not the location).

As a professional alcoholic, I can confirm when drunk we have absolutely no idea what happened the previous night. You can talk to us and we will respond, but we may as well be sleepwalking. I could wake up on the moon and I would not question how I got there

I like to imagine that if tea had alcohol in it, Lindy would be a raging alcoholic.

From my experience if somebody says 'I don't remember what happened last night' they usually just don't rember the last 30min to an hour before they went to sleep/passed out

At last, my specialist subject. I'm taking the risk of sounding incredibly irresponsible but my first week on heroin was the best time of my life. It was better than any other feeling I have felt before or since. The fact that subsequent weeks were spent chasing the first one showed me how dangerous the drug is. Crack comes a distant second along with MDMA. Crack extremely moreish but ultimately disappointing as the effects take a horrible toll on you which becomes noticeable to others quite quickly. MDMA was very good in the late 80's and early 90's but is barely recognisable these days. Oh, cocaine is and always has been a waste of time. It is basically speed for cowards. On speed, if you don't end up in a prostitutes den with no memory and symptoms of a heart attack then you aren't doing it right. I will finish by saying I'm clean now for 15 years.

About 15 years ago, some friends decided they needed to get me drunk, so took me out and paid for drinks. They discovered that when I get drunk, it doesn't reveal my inner uninhibited party animal; instead, I get quiet and even more serious than usual. They never bothered trying to get me drunk again after that.

Oolalaa look at mr gucci loafers with his blue ray

The best hangover cure is drinking enough water the night before with the alcohol as not to get dehydrated.

I love the thought 'Drunk/Stoned people are boring.' Way better message than 'No, you shouldn't do drugs, that's for criminals!' Not to mention the kind of stoners who turn weed into their whole personality, and can't talk about or do anything else.

Regularly had no memory of how the hell i got home. The common explanation amongst my friends in london was "angels on mopeds".

I don't understand why Lindybeige never got picked up by a major television network. This is good family content that frankly anyone could relate to.

Lindybeige is a great video to enjoy while under the influence of several substances

LSD in the 1970s was very good; it really demonstrated pattern recognition in the brain. Now, playing electric guitar is enhanced with marijuana. The worst experience was with alcohol 30+ yrs ago, after a painful bereavement, drinking neat vodka. I woke up the next morning and had to go to A&E to have stitches in my arm after falling down, breaking the bottle with my arm.

immediately checked the date when he said "whilst watchinga blue ray" six days ago, all the power to you

00:37 Lloyd, I promise, you absolutely will lose your memory if you drink enough.

I'm honestly surprised Lindy's never been blind drunk

Always love coming back to this channel, thanks for your work

0:38 That is ABSOLUTELY incorrect. I have blacked out well over a hundred times and I'm only 28... I get that you don't drink that much and that's fantastic, but I think the fact that you haven't ever felt it is sending you down conspiracy lane. It is super normal for people that can't hold their liquor like me (or doesn't want to). 90% are trying to cover their ass? Not a chance, try 5-10% and maybe you're onto something...

About the guy who spilled his beer on the board games: once is an accident, second time is a coincidence, third time is a pattern.

YOUR reality is great. One thing I've learned over the last 5-10 years is that everyone is living their own reality.

Hi Lindy, long time listener, first time caller. I have woken up 5 in the morning in front of my apartment with tongue as dry as a sand paper. To this day I have no recollection of what happened the night before, or how I got there. I was wearing someone else's jacket. One of my shoes was missing. My pockets were empty. No phone or wallet or the stash of $5 and $1 bills in my side pocket. It seemed like an agent from Men in Black came down to earth and wiped my memory. So believe me, people who claim they can't remember what they were doing last night because they were drunk were certainly not making an excuse.

You should try taking shrooms and going on a walk in the evening. Drugs will begin to make sense.

I once made the mistake of drinking a litre of gin (just under 2 pints). 3 days of hangover 🤢

This explains why in search of Hannibal will never be finished

You most definitely can drink so much that you cannot remember later portions of your intoxication.

I love how Loyd never surpriuses me on how responsible and level headed he actually is

You really need to go to a proper party Lindy!🤣👍

Lloyd, you claim that reality is great, but does "ymmv" mean anything to you?

I got so drunk in Rome that I blacked out and woke up on a street with no idea how I got there - it definitely happens

It's called time traveling. When one second your conscious at a bar and suddenly your conscious again at a different location with no memory of how you got there

“Stoned people are really boring!” Terence mckenna: “hold my blunt”

Chocolate milk goes well with a nice high quality dark rum. I call it a "sweet pirates kiss."

Alkohol is a drug, one of the most dangerous ones in fact. It always annoyes me when people put them in sepperat groups, because it paints the wrong picture. That being: Legal substance->no Drug->safe illigal substance ->Drug->safe. But this is just a pet peeve of mine and dosent really have anything to do with the vid, so.....great video , i always enjoy your videos!

I was never an alcoholic, but definitely a binge drinker, and have experimented with different stuff over the years but it's so refreshing to hear "I am my mind, I am my brain, I don't want to damage it". There are far too many people that have very nonchalant views on this stuff and don't realise the damage it can cause. I've been t-total for years now but I still feel some of the consequences. My memory, especially for things in my childhood and teens, has gotten worse and I just feel less sharp as I used to. This has gotten better over time but I don't think it has been worth it for a few nights of "fun"! There are so many amazing things that you can see and do sober that make drugs pointless imo.

Was hoping you had a crazy mushroom trip lol

I do agree that not liking reality very much is an essential component to the enjoyment of most drugs, especially in higher doses.

Saying that people who get so drunk they report 'they can't remember what they did last night' are liars is somewhat trivialising what could be a sign of a very serious illness.

I get the alcohol suddenly becoming hard to drink thing too, and have also never been too drunk to remember what I did. I can be halfway through an alcoholic drink and it will switch from tasting fine to being the most repulsive thing to me. My suspicion is that this happens before the point where you'd black out. This is also the first time I've heard someone else mention alcohol suddenly changing to being unpleasant, so I suspect it's not super common.

That ending was hilarious 😂

Psychedelics will allow you to see the world from a new perspective. They have changed my life for the better in ways that you would have to experience to understand

I did once, get absolutely hammered on 50 pence. I'd just qualified for our uni's university challenge team (as the substitute member) and after a drink thought "Hmmmm, better bone up on my quiz skills...Oooooh it's quiz night at the student union!" Any way skipped down to the SU and paid my 50p - I decided not to join a team and go solo, to add pressure. I hadn't thought this through - as answers had to come via the team captain... so I was inherently faster with my answers. There were 5 rounds the first, third and fifth were written answer sheets the second and fourth were first to answer. And you got a drink for each correct answer (remember, I'm alone...) I got slaughtered. One of the other competitors whom I knew, later told me that at one point the quiz organizers actually asked if I wanted to sit the next round out to give everyone else a chance. I'd also finished the Guinness, the whiskey and ended up speedballing sherry. I've had a couple of 'red flags' about drinking - I moved to Dublin and jumped into the drinking culture. One day I was sitting in a bar nursing a hangover and I said to the head barman 'Jesus, I had too much to drink last night' The barman looked at me and said "Nah, I've seen you drink more, and you can drink, I mean really drink. You can also handle your drink. When you first came here I thought 'uh-oh we'll need an ambulance' but off you wobbled into the night at closing time, only to return and do the same the following night. You're a pleasant drunk." I took that in the way you would if a stuntman says 'Bollocks! I ain't doing that, that's dangerous!' Sage words on the drugs front, I agree with you 100% - I've seen people that have taken trips and come back without all their luggage so to speak. Some are still suffering the consequences.

It's quite the experience having the most emotional talk of your life, tears included, with your best mate and the next day neither of you remember what you talked about but still, ABSOLUTELY sure that you DID have a talk.

You're way off on your alcohol induced memory loss take. At least as it comes to me. All you want to do is remember, the scary thing is that you just can't. Honestly seems a bit judgemental on your end Lindy

Defo had sections of various nights I can't remember, there's a reason they call it black out drunk. I apparently made drinking buddies for various evenings none of whom I remember but my friends told me all about them.

Cath's ruin all the fun!! I've been drunk once in my life. Me and a mate decided to get drunk, as we'd never done it before (aged 16 ish). We bought a bottle of whiskey, a bottle of Vodka, and a large carton of fresh orange juice. I downed a pint of orange and Vodka, but couldn't stomach the Whiskey. Within about half an hour we were both pretty sozzled. We went out, staggered round the village falling in hedges, came home, vomited, and had toast and marmite. Once was enough.

It’s quite entertaining to listen to someone who has evidently been abstemious throughout his life opining on the subject from the perspective of someone who has been the complete opposite.

Lol. It is very possible to not remember what happened. It's not exactly common to remember literally nothing, but it's certainly possible to forget some or even most of the night. It's been a long while since I've been that drunk. Don't plan on getting that drunk again. What's the point if you can't remember the night anyway.

I've only experienced a blackout once due to smoking some extra strong weed whilst pretty drunk. Can't remember anything 5 minutes after smoking that joint and I found myself in my bed at home the next day with a chicken-shaped egg timer in my jeans pocket. From what I gathered afterward, though, it was likely the smacking my head off a table in my disorientation which was the biggest factor. Never smoke weed when drunk...

As someone who drinks a lot. No, you can definitely forget.

I used to watch your channel and just got reminded about this video for some reason. Missed u dawg

I love Mr Lindybeige to pieces. But OMG, what a sheltered life he's lived.

LSD is, truly, mind-altering. Few tabs on a camping trip? Oh, we all just a part of the universe viewing itself. Molecules man... we all just waves man

I am glad you came away from drugs largely unscathed, I hope that continues in your journey.

I have gotten so drunk I couldn’t remember. It was like a mystery adventure trying to piece together what happened the night before.

My man is astral projecting!

Drugs don't destroy brains when used in moderation. They do alter the chemistry for a while but it all goes back to normal just like with alcohol for example. Although some drugs like alcohol does actually destroy your brain and body. Know what you're taking and how to use it properly.

Loving This series 🤣 Lloyd you are my favorite KZfaqr by a longshot

Remembering last night? Dude, I didn't remeber waking up the following morning! The realisation stopped me in the kitchen doorway dead in my tracks - couldn't remember anything except that I was on the way to put the kettlre on... my friend came downstairs shortly after and helped me out by explaining I'd fell asleep in the dogs bed and looked quite comfortable the dogs bed was _in_ the kitchen

shrooms rule. i don’t even wanna argue about it

Lindy will you be voting for reform?

There is nothing more terrifying, than waling up naked or with ripped clothing, no wallet or phone and zero memory of last night, and then panic dialling everyone at 8am to find out what happened and no one answers.

What a great ending to an interesting question!

I'll be surprised if this vid remains up lol - pretty sure it's against some sort of platform rule

Boring. Thought he was gonna have some cool drug stories.

Lloyd I love the amount of uploads recently! You truly are man of many wisdoms and I hope you’ll share so much more with us in the future ☺️ I want to add that I have also been absolutely sloshed 🍻 many times before haha but have always been able to remember, only not able to recall the night If I’d fallen asleep 😉 Cheers man!

Once I got so drunk that I remember only about 1/3rd of the night, and only realized that when I heard stories about the previous night and realized that the last thing I could remember wasn't even close to the time I got to bed, there were some solid 4 hours were I was alive and "alert" but can't remember a single thing, it might as well not even be me, just a random guy living in my body.

Mr Loyd, I assure you with all my heart - half the times I drink I can barely remember what happened, and the other half I remember ABSOULOUTELY nothing. 50% of me drinking I end up with no recollection of what happened, NONE at all. Not an image, a sound or a smell that I can recount. I drink all the time, and I TOTALY black out around half the time

Mushrooms can be beneficial for some. Lots of good stories out there, although my own experience was a bit too wild for me.

Q. “What’s wrong with being drunk?” A. “Have you ever asked a glass of water!” Douglas Adams HHGTTG.

“I don’t feel that the world is insufficiently marvelous.”

I've had full alcohol poisoning, as in should have been brought to the hospital not home. I woke up and there with a gritty, disgusting taste in my mouth. The world was way too bright and oddly green. There was a loud sound, almost like I was on an airport runway. I had passed out in my landlord's front yard and the kid she paid to mow the lawn was mowing around me. I couldn't walk, so I crawled to my place, a mobile home in her back yard. I spent the next day pretty much living in the bathroom. Somehow this didn't stop me from drinking for long, only about two weeks.

This is great , because I woke up drunk and saw this.

Watching this with a hangover, after getting drunk alone in my room last night 🙃

My worst experience with drugs was when i had a panic attack my first time taking psychedelic mushrooms but that was also my best because i met this guy and i went over to his house and we drank and laughed and watched anime all night while tripping on mushrooms.

In the UK the saying is "Drugs & Alcohol", in the US it's now "Drugs, Cannabis & Alcohol". No skirting that this _is_ a contradiction.

These are great. Keep it up.

It is definately possible to be so drunk you can’t remember the previous night. But people without a doubt lie about not being able to more often than not.

As an alcoholic ive woken up the next day and wondered when the party ended. You went to bed, you were up talking to us until we did.
