Would you be proud if somebody took a picture of you drunk

and posted it online? As to myself,I'd be 10% horrified,30% amused and 60% horrified,yet I know people who pride themselves for being so infamous and make a point of showing those pictures to everyone. And I'm not talking about personal blogs or social networking,I mean if you google your name and the first picture you see is that one

Umm it would depend on if it were a nice picture or not. I wouldn't want a picture of myself passed out or throwing up or something! If I saw that I would be really, really mad. But if I were just drunk and smiling taking pictures I wouldn't mind.

That's understandable but trust me,those pictures were not the most flattering! I guess,some people are happy with any sort of fame... By the way,I've just realized I meant to say 60% embarrassed. Seems like I make typos in the most inappropriate places

I won't feel bad if the one's posted was a decent picture of me, like having a sweet smile, chinky eyes and rosey cheeks. I don't really mind finding myself online if that's what I'll see. On the contrary, it would be awful seeing myself so lousy and doing some crazy acts I wont even do when I am not drunk. I think these won't happen in reality, I rarely drink. I already have drinking buddies, whom I trust, so I know, when I get really really drunk, I know that I will be respected and be taken cared of. I don't really get drunk around social gatherings with people I hardly know.

Oh,I don't like having rosy cheeks in the process of drinking But you got lucky with your drinking buddies,always better to go crazy with people you can trust instead of someone creeping up on you in the most inappropriate moment!

Ugh. Well I would probably be amused, horrified, yet fascinated that whoever TOOK the picture deemed it worthy of posting online. Especially if it was somebody who didn't even know me. That opens up a lot of questions including why people choose to post random things/photos about people they don't know. A friend of mine and I were actually at a bar once getting a drink - I mean we went into the bar to order because the server for our table was conspicuously absent. We sat down to wait and this guy scooted closer and actually said to his friend 'get a load of this' and he was holding out his phone. I'm not exactly sure WHY he said that, but I think he was taking a picture. We didn't stay with our drinks, we went back to our friends at the table. The point is, everybody has a camera or video capabilities on phones now and many people upload immediately to photo share sites and social networking sites. Who knows what's out there? Since it's likely people who don't even know you are doing stuff like that, you never know what listing your face might be under lol.

Good point! Well,let's hope the guy at the bar was fascinated by your looks and not the idea of Photoshop or things worse...

I would be horrified if someone took a picture of me drunk and posted it online. I am way to out of it when I start drinking and don't always remember all the stupid stuff I did and would not want the whole world to see the stupid stuff I do.
