I hear I get more talkative when I drink, but that and losing my balance are the only differences I've personally noticed. Oh, and feeling really bad if I take too much. Drinking doesn't seem to affect my thought process or state of mind almost at all. Mind you, when I said 'drunk', I mean like properly drunk, not a bit tipsy or anything. Getting a bit tipsy has the benefits you mentioned in moderation, but getting beyond that doesn't seem to have any further benefits in my opinion.
Whenever I see drunk people, I can't help noticing little things that seem really ridiculous to someone who's sober. It's usually nothing major, but still something I would call more or less ridiculous or stupid. Obviously it doesn't happen with everyone, but I see it really often when people get drunk. That confidence you're talking about sure has an effect. Thus when you're drunk, you obviously don't think of stuff you (or even others) do as stupid.

That seems a bit strange... you make it sound that there would be nothing wrong if you example were drunk and drove a car :P

Well, the effect could be subjective, I suppose. Also, I suppose driving sort of goes more along the line of losing my balance more easily. It's not really related to my thought process or even necessarily state of mind, it probably has more to do with my senses and such. I wouldn't ever go driving while drunk, even if I've taken only a little bit. But my thinking capabilities don't seem to be affected very much by alcohol (there's an effect for sure but it doesn't seem very big, everything considered).
