I've always heard that when a person is drunk,usually when they're sloppy drunk,their true feelings come out.I'm not sure how true this is though.

I know I have had times I've said things and then the next day used the excuse that I was just drunk when confronted with something hurtful I said.And there's been times I've been upset at someone but accepted their excuse that they were just drunk.But that's the total opposite of what I've always heard,that when a person is drunk their true feelings come out,isn't it?

The reason I'm posting about this is I know someone that always says the same things while super drunk.Some pretty twisted scary things about how they want to harm people.They always give the same details of how they would do it too.Their excuse the next day is always they were just drunk.I'm not so sure about that though.If it was a one time thing it wouldn't bother me so much but since it's every time I finally told them I refuse to be around them anymore while they're drinking because it scares me and I worry they might actually do what they talk about.This person never talks like that while sober.And they're such a calm mellow person when sober that it's pretty shocking to hear the drunk talk,not just shocking to me but to anyone that's around them.

What do you think?Is drunk talk just drunk talk or true feelings?
