I heard there is a word in Finnish for getting drunk at home with no intention to go anywhere.
Kalsarikännit, literally meaning getting drunk in your underwear. I bet people will be doing that a lot the upcoming weeks; it's not like it's against the rules.

Actually, the quarantine isn't nearly as wide as I thought it was when I posted this... lots of restaurants and bars for example are still open, which is just crazy. Bars should be the first place to be forced to close down as drunk people are likely to get careless with what they do.
Yeah: I would’ve thought alcohol selling establishments would be top of the list of places to shut down: although we do have a long-standing drunkenness culture here with all the associated bodily fluids all over the pavements every Friday & Sunday morning...
Ours are now shut: no bars, pubs, cafes, tea rooms, theatres, cinemas or gyms for the foreseeable future.
The English the word for getting drunk with no intention of going out is “parenthood”
