Just got off a 1-2 week hard beer binder. I love to drink but eventually the embarrassment is enough to make me stop for a while.

it gets easier the drunker you get. ONE TIME, i drank 10 beers within an hour. NEVER AGAIN.

I like sippin' on a mix of rum, fresh lime juice, and sugar. I don't really do it to get drunk I just like the nice relaxing effect it has.
Beer makes me peepee too much.

indeed.. the reason I reply to you is I recognize that avatar. Yes, I once played that tibia.
As for drinking the poison spirits, there is drunk, then there is unable to stand and pissing your pants shitfaced...
Having a few drinks and a few beers now and then is not drunk.. It makes sense how we're where we're @. The only allowed and generally accepted way to calm your nervers and escape ones probably quite miserable situation in the babylon system has the following psychoeffects: extra stupidity boost, short tempered, mood swings, puke, yelling, ego-tripping and pant and pavement pissing. Thats why we're fucked, this stuff is encouraged and enforced so that the powers that may be still be. : ]] One aspect out of thousands of course

Moorning Due said: As for me, I might have a drink or two every once in a blue moon, but in general, I don't like to get drunk nor do I really like being around people that are too drunk. It also bothers me that although pot is a stigma or frowned upon by mainstream society, drinking on the other hand is tolerated and sometimes even encouraged. Even drinking to get drunk, although this is slowly changing in some areas. I'd much rather share a bong load or bowl with some friends, rather than get all stupidly drunk and do something that I would REALLY regret.
Anyone else feel that way?
I agree with you 100%. I've only gotten drunk like 5 times and I always get depressed when I'm drunk. I guess being drunk isn't for me. However, I LOVE getting an alcohol buzz goin' on!

I think we all agree that alcohol is a shit drug that is detrimental to your health.

In moderation alcohol is actually healthy for you. Getting drunk isn't healthy, though. It is making your poor liver work itself to death.

Yes, one drink (possibly two) can be healthy. I doubt it's healthy if you do it EVERY day though.

I honestly can't stand the feeling I get from 1 or 2 drinks alone. Makes me feel real foggy in the head. When I meet up with my folks I'll occasionally have a glass of wine and it just makes it harder for me to have a fluid conversation with them.
On the other hand, if I start with a nicely packed bowl then I start drinking, I enjoy the feeling I get much more. 1-3 drinks sort of just increases the good vibes I get from smoking

There are some benefits of a drink every day, but the benefits might be blown out of proportion. I agree with you, though, that if you drink every day it probably isn't healthy for you because then you are likely to develop a tolerance and will increase from one drink to two drinks to three, etc. That's an easy way to develop alcoholism.
Alcohol is the third leading cause of preventable death in the USA, after smoking cigarettes and obesity.
Alcohol and obesity kind of go together, though.

Of course I know what the prohibition is. My only concern im trying to get across is the evaluation of alcohol's legality when its just as dangerous as any other drug. The majority of people assume that since it's legal, it must be safer than the illicit drugs.. which is a very common misconception.
And also, I said "Alcohol is a shit drug IMO" I was just stating my opinion, and not using that to question it's legality.
