Drunk Logic

January 1st, 1970

Guy has his 21st birthday.

At midnight he enters a bar and drinks large volumes of alcohol in a small amount of time.

Gets dropped off in a cab at our emergency department at 2am.

Vomits on our EMT.

Placed on a gurney in a monitored room to sleep it off.

At 6am I hear from the room, "Shut up you stupid monitors! Shut up!!! Stop beeping!"

...drunken pause...

"Wait. Don't shut up."

...drunken pause...

"If you shut up that means I'm dead."
