So now we learn that Virgin Mobile Australia is offering a new service called Dialing Under the Influence, where drinkers can, pre-drinking, arrange to have certain outgoing (in every sense of the word) phone calls blocked until the next morning. Ergo, no humiliating drunken hails in the early morning hours to ex-spouses, bad bosses or that really cute whatever in the cubicle next to yours at the office.
It’s a great concept, except we think other services would be just as beneficial to the life populi: ones that keep people from E-mailing Under the Influence, Chatting Up the Blonde at the Bar Under the Influence, Walking Under the Influence, Thinking Under the Influence and Choosing Music at the Juke Box Under the Influence.
