I basically developed a 'blue indicator light syndrome' after I got my first smartphone. This basically says it all, but for someone who has isolated for years on end, in this day and age, a lot of communication is (in majority) online with certain people. Saying inexplicable things to those people and then trying to figure out 'why' that happened ... it has, quite possibly, been the biggest single source of shame for me.
Not good to necessarily bring it up any time the opportunity strikes, but it is one of those 'stalwart' arguments to support NOT picking up the drink. All of us have 1+ drinking tales - yet, the quantity of horror it incites to think that (if you think about it) we no longer even have to leave our homes to completely embarrass ourselves in front of anywhere from 10-500 people is fairly enormous.
It too will pass, though.
