Imagine you walk into a room, full of people from your old school, clubs you were part of when you were like, 8, and other random peopleyou met over the course of the last 5 years. You don't hang out with any of these people, you all do different things, study different subjects, and have different friends.
But then, like, all of a sudden you are all completely, and utterly the biggest batman fans ever. Like everyone is a batman super fan, and you walk in the door, wearing your batman onsie, and the closest guy is like "No ******* way, you like batman too?"
Then he rips off his jacket to show a full batman costume beneath it.
So you go
"Wait, you're a die hard bat man fan too? Holy ****, I never knew!"
and says
"Hey, buddy, everyone here?"
and gestures to the rest of the crowd in the room, who are all talking enthusiastically about batman, and wearing batman t-shirts.
So you jump in with all these crazy people you don't know that well, but joined briefly by your love of the caped crusader.
Drinking is like that, just with alcohol instead of batman. It relaxes your inhibitions, making it easier to connect with and talk to people you normally wouldn't find interesting, and vice versa.
Or, you end up puking in a bucket and getting into a fight with a guy over a kebab, but hey, not everyone agrees on the best batman movie, and sometimes someone takes the batman roleplay too far, just try not to be that batman guy, and you won't be that drunk guy.
