I've nothing against drinking; I do a little myself. But I've never liked public drunks. I find them embarrassing and potentially dangerous. In college, when a fraternity-mate might be a little too disorderly and I might have tried to calm him down, others would say, "Hey, man, it's not his fault. He's drunk."

Giggles like that are more often in my experience the result of pot than ethanol. And I may be straight, but I have pretty good gaydar and the red strobe light was flashing.
