Shrubbery? How posh! Pub stories are soo fun... I had a buddy visit from Amerika once and we went drinking with some friends from work. My buddy Simon kept asking him "you pissed yet??" and he would look at him somewhat confused and say "no man, why would I be pissed?" On through the night, he kept asking and getting the same response although a little more snappy and slurred each time. Finally, he told him that pissed means drunk and my buddy slurred back "I'VE BEEN DRUNK FOR A LONG TIME BUT NOW I'M GETTING PISSED!!!" The best one though... Same two guys, the Amerikan goes to the toilet and doesn't return for a good 30 minutes. Simon says he's going to check on him. He comes back laughing so hard he can barely walk and chokes out "you guy have GOT to come see this..." With a little curiousity combined with drunken terror, we joined him to the toilet to see my friend on the pot with his trousers down and in somewhat distress... He had been using the toilet in it's intended purpose, but realised he had to vomit. He tried to scoot back and make it in between his legs and accidentally filled is trousers... -Jacob
I always got weird looks ordering such drinks for friends too (Malibu/Coke, Malibu/Archers, etc). I usually stuck to the more socially acceptable pints myself though when I needed to get pissed in a hurry Diamond White was the answer. A snakebite was always a fav too. What's the deal though - many places wouldn't serve me a snakebite, so I would order a half Strongbow and half Stella, and a pint glass. My house was two steps from the local pub so naturally my shrubbery out front was served a summary of my night of drinking on a regular basis.
