    I have a similar experience when I code while drinking.

    I’ll come up with the most insane ways of doing it that surprisingly look really clean… but when I wake up in the morning it’s a “how did I even think of this and how does this work”

      An actual research paper published in March 2012 showed that the situation described in this comic is not far from reality. Researchers found that intoxicated participants performed better than sober participants on a test that evaluates creative problem solving skills, and were also more likely to evaluate their own solutions as insightful. However, the study only tested a B.A.C. of 0.075%, not between 0.129% and 0.138% as displayed in the comic.
