What were they thinking? An inebriated person mistook a Snickers bar for their phone after one too many.

What were they thinking? An inebriated person mistook a Snickers bar for their phone after one too many.

Anyone who has had a few too many glasses of wine knows how quickly logic can go out of the window.

No matter how sensible your ideas can seem when you're completely inebriated, on sober reflection in the cold hard light of day you often ask yourself: "what on earth was I thinking?".

And that is exactly what these people must be thinking after seeing these hilarious snaps the morning after the night before, according to the Daily Mail.

From putting heaps of pasta in a toaster to writing hilarious drunk notes to their sober selves, these drunken actions are both highly stupid - and highly amusing.

This man launched himself through his bedroom door when he misplaced his key (and he didn't even make it to his bed).
