It definitely makes social situations more of an "event", so to say. The best drinking nights I have are when I'm out with a group of my friends just shooting the ****. We start it slow, and after a couple beers I notice that my conversation is flowing much more easily. Same with everyone else. Usually it ends there...everyone is a bit sloshed, we have a great time just hanging. Sometimes, though, the drinks start flowing a bit more and then we start to get crazy ideas (and everything sounds like a good idea when you are drunk). That is when I end up those nights that make for great stories.
Sure, stupid stuff happens...but it's really funny later. Things would be so boring without those stories.
