And along those lines, I provide an old one but a good one, from Dan Jenkins in his very funny novel "Semi-Tough"
Mankind’s Ten Stages of Drunkenness
1. Witty and Charming
2. Rich and Powerful
3. Benevolent
4. Clairvoyant
5. Screw Dinner
6. Patriotic
7. Crank Up the Enola Gay
8. Witty and Charming Part II
9. Invisible
10. Bulletproof
According to his account, once you reach stage 5, it's impossible to go back until you've progressed to stage 6 or further. And yeah, the original verb in stage 5 is redacted.
