wtf happened to you, daily mail? you write a story about teens sneaking alcohol into prom and don't talk about vodka-soaked tampons or eye-ball shots? you're slipping, guys.

snuck it in using my stomach

That, with a cooler in the car filled with tanqueray, lime juice, and sprite. Party afterward, hotness in some bedroom, desperately wasted driving girlfriend home, remember stopping to take a leak by propping myself up holding a big tree while standing in the middle of a lighted front yard on a busy street, then home, decided to hide cooler, vague memories of crashing through the woods around my house for a long time (never found the cooler), slept until 3pm the next day. Scored a success.

/why I always dress as "safari guy" on Halloween.

How specifically varied is the colloquialism "the prom" vs. "prom?" It almost seems to be by school district.

/unsure why "going to prom" bothers me so much.

Man, I was so wasted during the BBC Proms, threw up all over the Royal Albert Hall lobby... wait, that's what we're talking about, right?

Thanks... My girl's final prom is tonight.... I tried to tell her not to come home with anyone.... (Not that I wouldn't love having a baby around....)
her response was along the lines of: "OMG PLEASE.... There is zero chance.... "
Anyone willing to place a bet?

You're not thinking of "Prom" as a proper noun. I'm guessing some people do -- for some people "Prom" is a unique event, not just one of any number of school-hosted social events, some of which are called "prom".

For example, you'd probably say "going to the super bowl", but if you named a specific instance of the game, as opposed to one of the series of games with the same name, you'd probably say "going to Super Bowl XXXII" without the article.

Who wears sandals to prom?

If they're taking limos, they wont be driving, 21 as a drinking age is farking ridiculous anyhow....

So, subby... who did you share that liquor with?

Or drink before, show up, take a picture, go to after party.

Honest Bender: Who wears sandals to prom?

People who would wear a dress that looks like a confederate flag?

If you brought her up right, she'll know to use protection, not get to get totally shait faced or to put herself in any dangerous situations.

All a parent can do is give knowledge, try to teach skills and morals. What your kid does with that is up to them.

Yeah, but imagine that going to the Super Bowl, there's no drinking and no cheering, you're allowed only one type of jersey to wear, and you have to blow into a breatherlyzer before you get to your seat.

Also, imagine someone showing up and taking your tickets because something you posted online upset Roger Goddell and you're banned for "disrespect to the Office of the Commissioner".

/and we wonder why there are so many bridezillas

OtherLittleGuy: Also, imagine someone showing up and taking your tickets because something you posted online upset Roger Goddell and you're banned for "disrespect to the Office of the Commissioner".

I bet you could sell that as a TV movie.

Tampons soaked in vodka is the trend here. Why? I do not know but the ER sees it all the time.

Ahhh...America's youth and its fascination with alcohol/getting blasted drunk.

Ah yes. I want to drink something that was poured out of a tiny opening between your nasty, fungus ridden feet, and all the shiat that collects on the bottom of your shoe.

Honest Bender: Who wears sandals to prom?

What he said...

I took acid. It is less filling than a load of booze.

/Disappointed this was not yet posted

Caught red handed with bottles that had been emptied by a store clerk friend and refilled with booze, the limo driver took the children back to their parents' house.

What the hell are you doing bringing my kids back home!? They're missing the biggest event of their lives. Look at 'em. They're so sad. I didn't pay you to babysit, buddy. I paid you to give my little snowflakes a ride to the prom. Can't you even do that right? I'm calling my lawyer. You'd better take my kids to the prom and if they want to drink, that's their privilege. They just completed high school and all that stress has to go somewhere. Poor little angels. Don't worry. Your best friend and daddy Harry is looking out for you.

/yeah. I threw up in my mouth too.

I thought the whole point of hiring a limo was so that they could drink. "Party bus" too.

jmadisonbiii: I thought the whole point of hiring a limo was so that they could drink. "Party bus" too.

My first thought was damn guy drive the car and mind your own business. I bet there are pretty significant consequences though for him if something were to happen. I'm not sure I'd want to face heavy fines and lose business licenses over something like this.

Back in the day you didn't need to be very sneaky. I took a field trip with the FFA where the back of the bus was essentially a wet bar. Some kid got hammered and puked all over the stock yard floor. Luckily, I don' think that was the worse thing on that floor.

The FFA was also growing pot in the greenhouse.

Thank you. Thank you thank you thank you.

"Going to prom" bothers the hell out of me too. Where I grew up (southern New Jersey), it was "the prom", not "prom".

-Hotel is not a home
-Anyone? You insulted her by assuming only 1 person would be involved
--Notice I said Person.
-Final Prom? As in, there were other Proms? I thought that the Prom was only available to seniors
--Note: My high school did all-grade 'proms' every year.

As for a bet? Nah, you probably raised her right.

jmadisonbiii: I thought the whole point of hiring a limo was so that they could drink. "Party bus" too.

Hell, my senior prom limo driver took us to the liquor store and bought us what we wanted.

Seriously? We're back to this urban legend again? Tampons are inserted while dry as they expand when wet, not to mention the fact that alcohol burns.

//wouldn't it be a lot safer to shove a double bagged sample bottle (50ml) up their or the anus instead?

BigBooper: If you brought her up right, she'll know to use protection, not get to get totally shait faced or to put herself in any dangerous situations.

This.

Don't assume it is going to be her choice. And, "dangerous situations" can not be her choice, as well. My wife was rufeed and raped at a high school party. I think one key is to ensure you've got 2-3 friends who know you aren't willing to go off with someone and are watching out for you to raise a fuss if you suddenly disappear. (A lot harder to rufee a whole group of girls versus a single one.)

Sandals to prom? You're better off checking them for weed.

Way back in the the Paleozoic era, when I went to my Sr. prom. We had the limo driver stop and buy us booze (for a small gratuity of course).

BohemianGraham: //wouldn't it be a lot safer to shove a double bagged sample bottle (50ml) up their or the anus instead?

You know, when I get to the stage that I'm having to shove things up my ass just to enjoy a shot of whisky I think I might be prepared to recognise I have a drinking problem......

I was being snarky, but admittedly, if kids are smuggling booze into prom via undergarments and shoes, the next logical step would be to smuggle shiat in that way, and eventually progress to any of the following professions:

1. Whore
2. Proctologist
3. Smuggler

They're just working their way up to those via baby steps.

"Going to prom" bothers the hell out of me too. Where I grew up (southern New Jersey), it was "the prom", not "prom".

So, does it bother you guys that British patients "go to hospital" instead of "the hospital"?

(I've no answer to why American and British English differ on this point. Perhaps it's because there's more than one prom and more than one hospital?)

If drinking booze from a girl's shoe is wrong, I don't want to be right!

For all the folks contributing the "They are idiots, they should just get drunk first" logic, you may not be aware of something called the "welcome line" or the "entrance greeting"-

As soon as you arrived, the door person verified tat the person you were with was the person you said you were going to bring. Once inside, you got to run a gantlet of: 3 parental chaperones, the dean of the class, the head of the high school, and the headmaster. If ANY of them detected/smelled/became aware of any intoxicating agents of any sort, you a. Got kicked out of the prom, b. Got suspended from school, and c. Had your graduation "privileges" revoked pending a disciplinary review of your actions by the student/faculty "honor council".

Now, I'm certain that this wasn't exactly the procedure at other schools, but it's not as if schools and faculty haven't gotten wise to kids showing up drunk/high/stoned, etc.

/the REAL trick was eating a special brownie/chocolates about 30 min before arriving (after dinner, on the way to the actual event.) No muss, no fuss, and a half hour after you show up, the party gets pretty awesome.
//no I did not mean gauntlet

So this is the mostly-made-up-story-based-on-somethin g-that-only-happens-in-small-iso lated-pockets for this year's prom, eh?

Well, ok then.

/ protip: only the stupid kids sneak alcohol into the prom
// everyone else gets drunk and pregnant at the party after prom
/// if you're really worried your kid is going to drink, you should be a lot more concerned about other, irresponsible parents in the neighborhood letting it happen in their living room

flixter: Tampons soaked in vodka is the trend here. Why? I do not know but the ER sees it all the time.

Every time I hear that I just shudder a little. That has got to hurt, if it's really possible at all with a swollen tampon.

Frankly, I still don't believe people are doing it.

Maybe she is a practicing LUG ?
