How little self control must a person have to go on a fucking Space Mission and keep drinking right up until launch?

I have in my past been guilty of drinking long past the cut-off point that would assure my sobriety behind the wheel, but jesus christ, even as the idiot I was, I would have known to cut myself off in time to sober up before I flew a fucking ROCKET into fucking SPACE.

This puts the story about the astronaut that drove 900 miles in a diaper in a little more understandable light.

Really? because I'd totally need a few drinks before launching myself into space.

Yeah, I always like to diminish my capabilities before doing something dangerous and complicated.

See, you're saying that sarcastically, but I would be saying it seriously.

Well, given they don't actually fly the thing, I think getting pissed before strapping myself into a rocket full of highly combustible fuel and launching myself into orbit, something with a fairly high risk of death, is an entirely rational thing to do.

So you have secretly been training to go into space all these years? ;)

Prison overcrowding solved. Just gather up the local fighting drunks at closing time and send them into orbit.

Read this on the tube today in one of these inescapable free newspapers.
A) Probably not true.
B) Who gives a fuck? What's the worst that could happen? A massive meteor of frozen booze puke slamming into Big Ben?
C) It WAS you, wasn't it?
