Schnapsidee . An impractical idea which seems brilliant when one is drunk.

Drunk dialing/texting or DMing old BFs/FBs

Drunk texting an ex is not "impractical". It's pathetic.

Schnapsidee can be translated as a hare-brained scheme, concocted while drunk. Or, crazy idea, crackpot idea.

Knocking down a wall between bedrooms to make a larger bedroom. By myself.

Painting walls on a whim.

R4 My college housemate and I did that drunk. The room was white and we wanted it yellow. We started mid-wall going down. Got tired, passed out, and woke up inside a lemon meringue pie.

Cleaning my dungeon.

^I forgot to mention I don't have a dungeon.

I sewed my own covid masks and added layers of Etro linen because I’m a drunk label whore.

I had the cut out. I had the machine set up. I sewed and all the lines matched up perfectly. [bold] I had sewn wrong end to wrong end [/bold]and it looked like a huge striped mussel grabbed my face. I used it as part of a gator later on.

Wearing a head hugger this Halloween - not drunk, but my dog died and I am not thinking clearly.

Buying old houses with more bedrooms than there are months in a year. Buying pieds-à-terre on whim and being always in motion. Having a country house. Buying old shops because their design is great, not because I was to be a shopkeeper.

Throwing a ton of stuff out. Going through mail. Reorganizing your cupboards.

R11 But those aren't impractical.

R12 they are if you don't remember what you did!

Buying a bunch of shit off Amazon, Ebay, and Etsy. Spent 2k in one drunken, dumbass night.
