    You guys are confusing me, so I'm going to stick to напиваться for now.
    I was intending to use it as the first definition provided in this thread stated: to get drunk.

    Don't worry about it, it's just a stupid phrase. Nobody talks that way.

    Hah, you think by saying "it's just a stupid phrase. nobody talks that way" will stop us from wanting to know what it means?

    AS far as I understand this BF is some kind of glue and if you drill in it (or something like it) it turns into pure alcohol?

    We demand an explanation!

    Lol ok
    This glue's based on alcohol and when you dip a long rotating drill into it, all the phenolformaldehyde resin from the glue will be twisted around the drill. You take the drill with the resin out and drink the alcohol.

    PS: меняю банку БФ-2 на бутылку Aquavit ;)

    Well, it was a hard period in the morden Russian history (AKA "угар перестройки"). Gorbachev and the Co started the so called "борьба с пьянством". It was not exactly the Prohibition but something quite close. And this ingenious invention (among others) was the "asymmetrical response" to this .
