If you have responsibilities, like having to drive home safely, then it would obviously be unloving to be drunk while doing it. And if getting drunk leads to violence in the home, then its wrong to do.
Anytime your drunkeness unnecessarily imposes upon the rights of others, then its wrong. That includes being incapacitated due to a hangover. Again, its always your own personal judgement call, and nobody should try to judge another unduly, but in my own personal life, my duties as a husband and worker often curtail my drinking binges.
On other hand, sometimes when the wife wants me out of the house (occasionally, I wear down the patience of even the most angelic czarina), and I have a ride home, then I'll drink to the point I can't stand up. Especially if I don't have to be at work the next day.
A good time is a good time... the drunkeness itself isn't a sin, it's the context. Are you able to adequately fulfill your duties to other people, including the duty to drive home safely? Are you able to resist the urge to cheat on your wife? Are you able to come home and talk to your children intelligently and not get angry or violent? Some like to blame all this on the drink, but if the drink is doing this, why are you letting the drink into your house to beat your kids and wife?
Then there is the personal aspect. Do you really want to throw up all night? Do you really enjoy a severe hangover? You can get drunk, sober up, and through careful water consumption, avoid the most severe consequences. Why punish yourself? You are commanded to love yourself, why not treat yourself well and lovingly?
Just a few thoughts on the matter. I AM PA district overbeer, after all..
