drunk dialed

Called while wasted

Drunk dialed is the past tense of drunk dial, meaning to call someone on the phone while intoxicated, typically late at night and often to an ex-partner or someone you wouldn't contact sober.

These calls are usually regretted the next morning.

I drunk dialed my ex at 2 a.m. and barely remember what I said.

The practice has expanded to include drunk texting, with similarly embarrassing results.
