What Did I Do Last Night?: Difference between revisions

{{trope}}

 

Man, I reek of booze, and I can't remember a thing. Where am I? Oh God, looks like I'm on the ''what did I do last night'' page!

* In the ''[[Street Sharks]]'' fanfiction ''[http://www.fanfiction.net/s/3442555/2/Street_Sharks_Redux Street Sharks Redux]'', the protagonists wake up in a sewage pipe with no memories of how they got there or where their father is. After they mutate into sharks, it slowly comes back to them that [[It Was His Sled|their father's evil assistant]] kidnaped and mutated them.

* The [[ABBA]] fanfiction ''[https://m.wattpad.com/138744104?m=0 She's My Kind of Girl]'' features a [[Les Yay]] moment... [[Hilarity Ensues]].

 

== Huh, I don't remember [[Film]] being here. ==

* In ''[[Lonely Werewolf Girl]]'' this question is asked by Thrix after a night of [[Drowning Our Romantic Sorrows]]. The answer is, her sister's boyfriend.

* ''[[Discworld]]''

{{quote|"Most people, on waking up, accelerate through a quick panicky pre-consciousness check-up: who am I, where am I, who is he/she, good god, why am I cuddling a policeman's helmet, ''what happened last night?''}}

* In the [[Ellery Queen]] novel ''Ten Days Wonder'', Howard Van Horn suffers blackouts. He will wake up days or weeks later with no idea where he is or what he has done in the meantime.

 

 

* Played serious in the "Hangover" episode of ''[[The Alfred Hitchcock Hour]]'', where a binge-drinking executive (Tony Randall) eventually finds out {{spoiler|he killed his wife}}.

* The seventh season opener of ''[[Degrassi the Next Generation]]'' does this to set up a particularly convoluted [[Twist Ending]], where the two drunk people waking up in bed together didn't have sex...but a ton of much, much creepier stuff did happen.

'''Amber:''' ''Your facts have no effect on me!'' }}

* Used in ''[[VG Cats]]'' with [[Metroid|Samus]] at a Christmas party.

** Also, at the opening of one of Owns Big Mecha's shows:

{{quote|'''Luther''': [http://sordidcityblues.com/archive.php?chapter{{=}}066&page{{=}}001 This first song has a lot of personal relevance for me, because I seriously do not remember getting this tattoo.]}}

* [http://drmcninja.com/archives/comic/17p17 This page] in ''[[The Adventures of Dr. McNinja]]'':

{{quote|'''Dr. [[McNinja]]''': Did I discover time travel?}}

* Sam, of ''[[The Space Between]]'', has this happen to her a lot.

* ''[[Out There]]'' establishes the use of this trope early in its run. On the first night they meet, Miriam and John end up spending the night in a hotel together after she ties one on {{spoiler|(nothing happens, except a [http://outthere.keenspot.com/d/20060710.html REALLY good dream])}}. In another arc about a year later, Miriam and Sherry go out drinking and the next day Miriam's memory of the night is so spotty that she can't remember {{spoiler|[http://outthere.keenspot.com/d/20070707.html if she cut her own hair] (she didn't; Sherry cut it [http://outthere.keenspot.com/d/20070630.html while she was sleeping])}}. Another time, a hung-over Miriam thinks she remembers Sherry sabotaging her one-night stand, and assumes she must be remembering wrong {{spoiler|([http://outthere.keenspot.com/d/20081105.html she isn’t])}}. Not long after, Miriam and {{spoiler|[http://outthere.keenspot.com/d/20090131.html Clayton]}} end up in bed together, and Miriam needs a [http://outthere.keenspot.com/d/20090202.html recap the next day] to find out what happened. Later, while touring with Steven's band, Miriam gets drunk at a party and and is later surprised to find {{spoiler|[http://outthere.keenspot.com/d/20090911.html a phone number written on her belly] in [http://outthere.keenspot.com/d/20090912.html indelible ink].}} Still later, Miriam wakes up on Araceli's couch and has trouble remembering what they did the night before, but she [http://outthere.keenspot.com/d/20100325.html figures it out on her own], confirming (in her own mind) that she doesn't have a drinking problem, after all.

* Not an uncommon occurance in ''[[SSDD]]'', the [http://www.poisonedminds.com/d/19981005.html fourth comic] actually had the "traffic cone" gag.

* Most people don't remember that [http://megatokyo.com/strip/7 this] was how the protagonists of ''[[Megatokyo]]'' originally got stranded in Japan in the first place.

 

== I don't think I put [[Web Original]] here. ==

* A deadly serious version is used in ''[https://web.archive.org/web/20130921232333/http://www.crystalhall.org/merry3.html Against Ill Chances]''. The narrator wakes up, is acting differently, and things are VERY weird. What happened yesterday at powers testing?

* The [[Crosses the Line Twice]] [[The Spoony Experiment|"Spooning with Spoony"]] series features first Nostalgia Chick and then [[The Nostalgia Critic]] waking up in bed with a [[Depraved Bisexual]] version of Spoony. Of course there the implication isn't so much that they got drunk as that they got roofied.

** And then inverted in [[Atop the Fourth Wall|"Linking Up With Linkara"]], where Linkara is happy to find out he's had amazing wild sex with Nostalgia Chick and Marzgurl while drunk...he just wishes he could remember it. And they tell him it was an incredible once-in-a-lifetime event that could never be repeated. {{spoiler|Of course they're just messing with his head.}}
