Drunken Facebook-ing?

Are you ever the culprit of sending intoxicated messages or comments on Facebook (or any other social networking site, for that matter?)? Something that you perhaps wouldn't say unless you had a little (ok, a LOT) of liquid courage before hand?
I found myself doing this exact thing last night. Shame on me. I actually sort of apologized, in a very drunkenly incoherent way, to an old friend who had stopped talking to me. In my soberiety, though, my head (and my heart) tells me that HE is the one who still owes me the apology and my sober-stubborn-ness will not permit me to send any kind of apology. But apparently my drunken self is not as stubborn and decided to go ahead and send him a reconciliatory message over Facebook. But I can't say that, sober, I necessarily agree with anything I wrote while NOT sober last night.
Has this ever happened to you?
You can't, by any chance, take back these things? Send another message, saying, "ACTUALLY, SORRY, I WAS DRINKING.. I DIDN'T MEAN TO SEND THAT. LOL." and be done with it?
Have you ever Facebooked while drunk? What kind of trouble did this get you into?

I've never been on facebook when I'm drunk. It's a bit weird how people manage to do things like this for example, calling people under the influence. If I did do something like that though, I would indeed apologise in another message to them or call them if that was what I did.
