Mirror, Mirror on the Wall
Amongst my many identikit drunken tales (drink A x N + person B + venue C = carnage) there was one particularly stupid moment from a few years ago that always sticks out, and perhaps explains why I didn't make a reappearance at the venue in question for quite some time.

Picture the scene, the slightly grubby but dubiously charming Po-Na-Nah's in Oxford, stupid o'clock and a three sheets to the wind Shifty who needs to make good on his round. I gathered myself up, made sure I had the cash and made for the bar. As I was making my way to the bar I remember thinking that it was particularly busy and there were people dancing everywhere, so I duly fought my way past them. After getting past the dancers and into some space I spotted a guy coming straight towards me, and after a few seconds I thought "That guy looks really familiar". This was followed by a SPANG, and a slightly confused look on the other familiar guys face. I simply thought "Fuck it I'll just go another way around to the bar", so I turned around, fought my way past the dancers again and got to the bar, happy-ish, albeit a little delayed.

Now for those not in the know, the aforementioned venue is fairly small, with a dance floor about 6ft x 6ft, and at one end is a floor to wall mirror to make it look bigger. What I'd done was drunkenly weave a route at a tangent to the bar, fight my way to the back of the room, try to push my way past my reflection, twat the mirror with my face, turn around and bimble off to the bar.

Despite my intoxication I was embarassed, but apparently forgetful. Because the next time I tried to go to the bar, I once again tried to fight with that really familiar looking guy on the dance floor.

YES!
I have done exactly the same thing in that place!

It was also the place I went with a couple of mates, one of whom looked rather like Gordon Brown's less attractive brother.
