I have also noticed this done at the one in Paddy's...use this info as you wish.

Agreed.

Alcohol essentially removes the filter in brain. You've always wanted to say something to some particular person. For some reason, (12) beers and (45) minutes later is the best time to do that since the filter has been removed.

It's the same with physical action. For instance, I've always wanted to remove/steal a sign in my neighborhood, but understand there are consequences if I do so. But when I'm drunk, I'm going to do it because the filter has been removed so I ignore the consequences, and I suddenly think it's a great idea.

Oh, and the guy who spilled? He glanced down at the spill, then at me, shrugged his shoulders and got another beer without a word. Fond memories.

The other night I had a guy whom I had never met before (friend of a friend) spill an entire pitcher on my lap. He immediately apologized and offered to buy me a shot to repay me. Maybe I need to be spilled on more often...
