Despite having alcoholism in my family history, I only found out that I had my own issues with addiction when I became a journalist. It never crossed my mind to drink before sunset when I was in university, but when I landed my first position as an editor, it suddenly became normal to drink champagne at 11am, and I liked it. A lot. More »

You probably made an ass of yourself the last time you were drunk, but as long as you didn't rub your ass on any expensive artwork there's someone out there who's more mortified than you are. Yesterday 36-year-old Carmen Tisch was charged with felony criminal mischief for punching, scratching, and sliding her butt against a painting worth $30 million. Police suspect that Tisch was drunk when she assaulted "1957-J no.2" by Clyfford Still in a Denver museum devoted to the late artist, causing $10,000 worth of damage. A spokeswoman for the D.A.'s office says, "You have to wonder where her friends were," and that's an important message: Friends don't let friends go on a drunken rampage in an art gallery. More »

New Year's Eve is quickly approaching, so it's time for the media to remind everyone that their ridiculous hangover cure won't work. This year Dr. Aaron Michelfelder of the Loyola University Health System says that "hair of the dog," i.e. drinking more to cure your hangover, actually only makes the symptoms worse. More »

Over the last few years, a curious phenomenon has arisen in the world of online commerce: it seems that people tend to buy things during evening hours, right around when they're also unwinding after work with a glass or entire bottle of wine. While you may have thought it your own mildly embarrassing secret vice, getting drunk and buying dumb crap online is more common than you might think, and online retailers are taking notice. More »

Usually you hear about how dangerous drunk driving is, but it turns out riding the train drunk can also be hazardous to your health. Check out this crazy video of a heavily intoxicated woman in England who steps off a train, falls, and then somehow manages to roll underneath the train. The footage was released by British police in an effort to remind travelers not to get too drunk while celebrating this holiday season. Luckily the woman is okay — just cuts and bruises — because some alert person spotted her go down and prevented her from getting flattened. Here's your new mantra for holiday parties: Friends don't let friends drink and ride the rails. More »

What is it about December that inspires mass breakouts of victim-blaming? Is it the darkness encroaching on our days? Is it the way the holidays make us all want to drink? Whatever it is, it's happening again. And just like last year's Never-Ending Naomi Wolf Incident, this one involves women hating on women in ways that shouldn't shock me but still really, really do.

Paula Abdul and her glassy eyes were on The View today, where she talked about Paula Goodspeed, the former American Idol contestant who committed suicide in a car parked outside of Abdul's home on November 11. Abdul said that Goodspeed was actually stalking her for 17 years, and had attempted suicide outside of Abdul's home once before. Then she told a bizarre story about how she was approached by a fan on the street and then asked the woman to move in with her — that woman will now be the 4th judge on Idol — which seems like it would only encourage more stalkers. She then changed the subject and talked about her jewelry line, which she will be selling live on HSN this Saturday night. Will she be as loopy as she's been on the past when selling jewelry in the middle of the night? Clip above. More »

The problem with this government ad promoting safe sex in the UK — in which, to illustrate the "consequences" of a boozy night, a teenage girl gets pregnant — is that the commercial basically blames the girl for drinking too much. Sure, maybe she made bad decisions because she was inebriated, but what about the guy, who was also drinking, and who didn't wear a condom? How come he doesn't shoulder any of the responsibility?

Today a rerun of The Martha Stewart Show was playing in the background while I was working, and when I saw that Kathleen Turner was on, I just knew it would be good, and I took it off mute. She was there to promote her memoir Send Yourself Roses (that book in which she accused Nicholas Cage of dog-napping, which then led him to sue her). Anyway, I love the particular brand of crazy that she's been aging into, which I'm quite certain involves lots of vodka. On Martha Stewart, not only did Turner's voice sound like an ashtray personified, but she seemed to be lit, particularly when she was waiving her arms around in front of her and pointing her finger, a salty motion I've utilized several rounds in. Seriously, it seems like there should be empty martini glasses in front of them, not ingredients. Clip above, and after the jump, let's examine that book cover. More »

As prone to creating and relishing in her own drama as Bad Girls Club roommate Cordelia seems to be, it's kind of hard to not feel a little bad for her, considering the relentless teasing, judging and bullying she's had to deal with from Tanisha and the Hyena Sisters. They have been completely unyielding in their criticisms of her, whether about the way she walks, the fact that she's an atheist, or her former porn career. So it was especially sad when she began sobbing, saying that they don't need to say all that stuff to her because she already hates herself. Clip above. More »

This particular case from Judge Judy is kind of confusing: It involves a gas station, a hospital, one assault, two separate car accidents, three parties, and lots and lots of drunk people. The plaintiff was so drunk (and allegedly on meth) that she didn't remember why she got beat up, who exactly beat her up, where she was hanging out or who she was with. She's suing her former BFF and roommate, as well as the BFF's sister, who, BTW , wasn't even there. Not surprisingly, JJ can barely sit in her seat, she's so irritated, and ends up calling the plaintiff a crybaby. LOL! Needless to say, she dismisses the claim. You'll feel just as drunk as these chicks after you watch the clip above. More »

Meet Donna Sturkie-Anthony: A former high school homecoming queen who is now in her early 40s and is more gangsta than you could ever imagine. Currently in jail after an alleged incident in which she beat her sister with a prosthetic leg, Donna has a reputation in her town of North Huntington, PA for being a rowdy, violent drunk. She's been arrested over a half-dozen times since 1991, and one of those times — a DUI — she was so drunk that she smeared her feces in the back of a police car. Last month, Donna's sister visited her trailer to discuss her drinking problem and Donna became so enraged that she pulled off her sister's prosthetic leg and beat her with it. After that, she stole her neighbors' phone and threatened to burn their trailer down if they testified against her. But wait, it gets better! More »

We heard a rumor that there might be some awesomeness going on at Six Six Sick's Fashion Week party at Happy Ending, so after leaving the MOB event, photog Nikola Tamindzic and I headed over. Model Agyness Deyn was a guest DJ and I don't really know how that sort of thing works—like, do they just stand back there or do they really pick the songs and try to beat match?—but whatever the case, people were loving it and dancing so hard. (The level of drunkenness helped matters, I'm sure.) I'd tell you more, but I can't remember it, that's how fun it was. Luckily, there's pictures to prove it, check out the gallery. More »

Click to view Last month, Britain's Daily Mail tabloid posted lots of pics of wasted wenches on their website yanked from a little Facebook group called "Thirty Reasons Girls Should Call It A Night." The Mail recoiled in faux horror at the "shameful drunken antics" of these girls, but still managed to post at least three upskirt shots. In response, we beseeched our gentle readership to send us pictures of drunken dudes to even the score. Well, now that the "30 Reasons" uproar has reached this side of the pond, we've decided to post your submissions in all their pukey, passed-out glory. Faces have been obscured by trusty Intern Cheryl to protect the identities of the revelers. Start checking out our gallery of guzzlers below, or click here for the entire ouevre.
