Report: "Life is a pile of s***"



(UK) In a special report, reasons are probed as to why droves of professional British women regularly go out to nightclubs throughout the country and get snot-slinging drunk.

Peer pressure looms large, as does a lack of confidence, boredom, burdensome responsibility and misery.

'I drink because life is a pile of s***,' says hairdresser Lucy Walker. She is particularly miserable because her mother is on holiday, leaving her responsible for two younger sisters.

'This place is really rough. You've got to be drunk to feel happy here,' she continues, sitting in the gutter. 'I've drunk so much but I'm still not p*****.' She clearly wants to be.

When we speak the next morning, her version of the night is very different: 'Yeah, it was a good night. I was laughing my t*** off,' she says.

Most of the crowds of mini-skirted, high-heeled ladies scoff at the dangers of their behavior. The women assert that they ARE responsible and laugh off suggestions of STDs, liver damage, unwanted pregnancies and personal safety while staggering on a street carpeted with vomit and urine. Heh. Good times.
