Today, I gave my girlfriend some non-alcoholic beer as a joke. In slurred speech, she told me I have the body of a monk seal. She then took my keys, staggered to my car, and drove away. She crashed into a tree two blocks later. She's fine. FML

who gets anything off of one beer anyway? if she was any more of a lightweight she'd float away.

it means that she thought she was drinking something alcoholic, and her being "drunk" was all in her head, although she still managed to do something stupid like crashing the OP's car.

Well, that was sort of a compliment. Monk seals are slimmer than other seals. Monk seals get their name from their short hair which is said to resemble a monk. That explanation doesn't sound very convincing to me. I think it's because the seals gather on the beach and form large MASS. I trust by this time you've found a more suitable girlfriend.

Lmao

Maybe if she was acting like that you shouldn't have let get drive! Even if it was non alcoholic!

although he probably could've stopped her, or does say she took the keys, not that he gave her the keys

its still your fault you let her drive while she was drunk...

while he probably could've stopped her, it does say she TOOK the keys, not that he gave her the keys or let her drive

It's nothing to do with the beer as it was with her state of mind. Her brain assumed it would get drunk, so it let itself think it was.

It was a placebo.

Placebo effect much?

How the hell can you think OP deserves this!?

Maybe she was experiencing a "nocebo;" she knew she was drinking beer, but not that it didn't have alcohol, so she expected to be drunk, and thus acted like it.

placebos are silly
