> It's one thing to write drunk, it's another thing to get drunk to write about being drunk I would again see Bukowski.

  Is Bukowski generally seen as a role model?

    I don't think the dude drunken rambling on reddit was aspiring to be a role model, just share what he perceived as wisdom he's gained in life.

      He wasn't drunken rambling though, he was getting drunk to do it. I think there's a real difference in message there - as much as it was probably fake.

        I'm not sure I follow, what's the difference in message between drunken rambling and, getting drunk and rambling?

    He's certainly more famous that most HN posters :) Perhaps he also had fun doing it.
