Intoxication Ensues: Difference between revisions

* In Jeff Smith's ''[[Bone]]'', Thorn and Fone Bone get tipsy from hiding in the woods and eating nothing but berries. The berries could have fermented. This happens in [[Real Life]], and birds get drunk from the juice and fly into things. [[Hilarity Ensues]]

* A drug which does this appears in the early ''[[Tintin]]'' albums. In "The Blue Lotus", even Tintin does show the effects after a villain drugs him, although we later find out the drug was exchanged for water. (He was just faking in order to escape.)

* In [[Stone Soup]], the eldest daughter tastes parts of the batter for a cake her grandma was making for the holidays. She then proceeds to slur her words (more specifically, she starts slurring "few"), with the grandmother being unaware until after she starts slurring. Then it cuts to the grandmother's daughters expressing shock that the grandmother let the eldest granddaughter taste the batter for the rum cake she was making, and wondered how much she ended up tasting as the grandmother looks sheepishly while the granddaughter is stating she loves her grandma in a very loopy manner.

 

 

* In ''[[Harry Potter]]'' fanfic ''The Well of Shadows'' Professors Hillary and Gregory Proteus, {{spoiler|who are Harry and Ginny's future selves}} do this to Severus Snape. The first we hear about this is when Snape greets his class with a bright "Good mornin' all you happy people!". [[Hilarity Ensues|Hilarity and disbelief ensue]].

* A ''[[Yu Yu Hakusho]]'' fanfic ''Purple High'' is entirely this, when Kurama attempted to breed a Makai plant capable of curing burn wounds, and instead creates a powerful hallucinogen that, among other things, prompts Kurama to reveal his stash of green spandex, gives Hiei the munchies, compels Botan to prostrate herself before Kurama to learn his hair-care techniques, and turns Yukina into an [[Ax Crazy]], [[Cloudcuckoolander]] [[Card-Carrying Villain]].

* The [[DC Nation]] plot "The Lotus Eaters," the Titans come to a planet used as a place of healing and vacation spot for Tamaranians when Starfire fails to check in. While [[Government Drug Enforcement|it turns out Blackfire sent some mercs to turn the place into a soma factory]], a snoot-ful of the toxin in question sends Gar and Kon into giggly, happy drunk territory, complete with the "I love you man." Best line ever from Superboy when Beast Boy changes into a squid, "I am NOT a Japanese Schoolgirl!"

* In ''[[Twokinds]]'', [[Petting Zoo People|Keidrans]] can get insanely drunk off a couple slugs of normal beer. Then they start to talk like [[LOLcats]].

* In a Christmas arc in ''[[PvP]]'', Skull gets stoned on a bad orange julius and ends up taking a job as a [[Mall Santa]].

* ''[[Girl Genius]]'' had [http://www.girlgeniusonline.com/comic.php?date=20070625 some] ''really'' good coffee from Agatha Heterodyne.

* ''[[CRFH]]'' has a few instances of accidental exposure to blue mushrooms. These result in some of the most bizzare story arcs the comic has produced.

 

* An Austrian reporter got drunk while doing a report on mead, having to take a sip of the stuff before speaking. Several takes later, and he was ''hosed''.

* Sex columnist Dan Savage wrote in one of his books that something like this happened to his mother once. Dan's partner was making margaritas at a family gathering and Dan's mother was acting loopy after just one glass. It turns out the margarita "mix" ''already had tequila in it,'' and Dan's partner hadn't realized this (only wondered why the "mix" was so expensive) and had bought a whole bottle to add to it...

* This is how [[The Beatles]] got introduced to acid. John and George were visiting their dentist/friend for dinner one night in April 1965, and he spiked their coffee with the stuff. They liked it enough to share it with Ringo. Paul was reluctant, holding out for about a year before breaking down and trying it. He still preferred weed.
