a night on the phone

Yesterday night my phone rang twice all the way from Australia and I was unreasonably accused of sounding “drunk” and later “hungover” when I spoke in English. Clearly it’s a case of the pot calling the kettle black : we’re talking about an Australian young man who plans to drink wine each time someone says the word “thank” in a 10 minutes wedding speech. It’s just begging for disaster if you ask me. (Also, now I have a nagging thought at the back of my head that being invited to his wedding will provide stories to last me a lifetime…)

So, let’s open a poll : do I sound drunk in English? Provide the best proof and I’ll send you a postcard You will be graded on the logic of your argumentation or your overall creativity.
