40 things every drunkard should do before he dies
From Modern Drunkard Click that link to get details on each item. I’ve added my comments in green.

1.) Open and close a bar. On the same day?
2.) Go on a bender. For how long? I’m a busy guy you know.
3.) Drink a fifth of hard liquor, by yourself, in one day. Been there, done that… while on a fishing trip many moons ago.
4.) Dance like a fool in front of a large hooting crowd. Do it regularly
5.) Spend a night in the drunk tank. Not yet, but almost.
6.) Get drunk on the grave of your hero. Great idea
7.) Buy a crowded bar a round. I might be drunk, but I’m not a Kennedy
8.) Embark on an impromptu road trip. One of my favorite pastimes
9.) Get 86’d from a bar. Can’t say as I have… yet.
10.) Extravagantly overtip a bartender. What does she look like?
11.) Walk up to an attractive stranger way out of your league and buy him or her a drink. Good idea
12.) Conspire an afterhours at your favorite bar. Is that bar or bra? Thought you might be dyslexic.
13.) Make your best friend a perfect martini. Martini? But why? He won’t drink it.
14.) Buy, build or steal a home bar. Bought
15.) Get carried home by your drinking buddies. Been there, done that.
16.) Get drunk with your father. Now you tell me. Too late. Besides Dad didn’t drink much.
17.) Fight a good fight. I’m a lover not a fighter.
18.) Visit the source of your favorite beer, wine or liquor. Done
19.) Drunkenly watch the sun come up with your best boozing buddies and a bottle. I seem to recall doing that
20.) Sit in on an A.A. meeting. Went to a meeting at AAA once.
21.) Hit a dozen bars in one night. My limit is 6 or 7
22.) Try at least one hundred different drinks. In one sitting?
23.) Get loaded in the land of your forefathers. Every time I do, I do.
24.) Juice on the job. Been known to happen a time or two.
25.) Split a magnum of expensive champagne with your true love. Would wine do?
26.) Give a hobo twenty bucks. Whew! I thought you said homo. Charity starts at home.
27.) Get loaded and tell your boss exactly how you feel. Do it all the time. I’m self employed.
28.) Send a friend a bottle of good liquor. Been there, done that.
29.) Eat a pickled egg from the big jar. Never been drunk enough to do that
30.) Go on a fishing trip with your pals. Regularly
31.) Eat the worm. Eat or beat?
32.) Learn at least one traditional drinking song. Only one?
33.) Steal some booze. Hmmmm, can’t recall doing that. Used to acquire it illegally though when underage.
34.) Spend half a paycheck on a single bottle of liquor. How about spending a whole paycheck on a half bottle?
35.) Start your long-awaited and very personal autobiography: Me and the Booze: A Love Story.
36.) Try absinthe. I’ll give up anything but booze… and pizza.
37.) Watch the movie Barfly with five of your closest friends. I’ll put it on my list.
38.) Work at least a week as a bartender. Consider this my application
39.) Make your own beer, wine or moonshine. Long ago… made beer and stomped grapes for wine (awful)
40.) Go to your place of worship loaded. Done several times many years ago.

This is one of my all-time favourite thing from MDM, I have it on my faves list!

[l...]

just for the record ..i HAVEN'T done 6, 18, 20, 23, or 39. must get on that!

[Jr_DeCaveman]

#40 is a given as a valhallian (aka the modern day caveman) it is a must that drinking heavily is done at least 3 times a week and a 2 drink min daily is there too

This guy should write for Reader's Digest. He's snappy. They could use more talented individuals like this.

ah, "life in these united states" if you will?

I want to do #34 next. Spend around $500 on one bottle. Any suggestions?
I'm thinking a bottle of rare scotch, what else in this range? I don't really appreciate fine wines.

[Oggar]

6 Egil isn't buried, might have to settle for Oliver Reed.
16 My dad went dry when I was 4yrs old.
23 Must get to Europe.
25 An oversite.
38 I'm trying...

douger there's champagne but if I was trying to spend that much I'd probably go for a primo Whiskey of some fashion as well.

[ruiner]

13 14 22 and 39. seeing as im only 23 i think im doing pretty well.

[Crystal]

I haven't done the following:
5, 6, 9, 14, 17, 23, 25, 29, 31, 35, 38, 39

[douger]

I've tried champagne its just too bubbly for my tastes, and a primo bottle of whiskey is the way to go, I reckon, I certainly want to get trashed and will dedicate a thread to it probably next payday.

I've done and would like to do:
1
2
3
4
5
will do #6 in the next few years
8
9 several times
10, especially if she's hot and treats me well
11 is a good idea haven't done it yet but will soon
10 Can't do he's long dead
12 can't fight worth shit drunk have been punched out real good
20 been to AA meetings will never go back without being court ordered
24 have worked places where drunk on the job was acceptable and common
26 Gave a street guy $20 bucks his eyes lit up and he "said God bless you" and headed straight for the candy store
29 Have eaten pickled eggs from the big jar many times, epecially in the small town dives on the prairie (excellent, especially with beers, you don't know what your missing, Liz)
33 won't go into details but have done this
34 see above (half paycheck on one bottle)
36 want to try absinthe, but think it may be overrated
38 want to do this one (bartend) but don't know if I'll ever get the chance. Good luck Oggar, if you don't have experience you have to know somebody.
39 always wanted to try making hooch, beer, wine or whatever, just never got around to it.
40 don't have a place of worship, although I occasionally pray at the porcelain altar.

[l...]

those weren't my answers. they were some guys. i have eaten the pickled egg. ;)(see previous posts)

[douger]

So good with salt and fresh ground pepper, wash it down with beer. Come to think of it, none of my local bars have the great big pickled egg jar. They tend to try to sell their overpriced menus I guess.
