Do you drink alcohol?

[Zindai]

- Yes.
- Not very often. I used to drink every weekend when I was 14-15, now I hardly drink once a month (I'm 23). When I do drink nowadays, I can drink up to 1 unit before I feel sick. It suits me fine, being tipsy and getting sober quickly is great.
- It's sometimes a nice feeling, and alcohol is tradition at most festivities. Plus, apple liqueur is one hell of an aphrodisiac for me.

Right now I haven't had a drink in 2 months. I packed it all down when I moved, and I haven't bothered unpacking it since I'm going to move again within a few months. On top of that my father quit drinking half a year ago, so I'm never offered any at home.

[Themius]

Yup.
At least once a week, I only drink to get fucked up cause whats the point of drinking if you're not getting drunk?
Life sucks and being drunk is fun, nothing matters aside from having a good time.

You're exhibiting signs of alcoholism.

[IIamaKing]

I used to, now even one cocktail makes me feel like sick ans swampy in the stomach.

[Revi]

Since there is a thread about smoking

Do you drink alcohol?
How often do you drink it?
Why do you drink it alternatively why do you not drink it?

Yes
Maybe 2-3 times a month, depends how I spend my weekend.
Because it's fun and social.

[Deleted]

Only drink with family and friends. Don't really like the taste of most alcoholic drinks and usually drink just to socialise.

[Hana Song]

Most teenagers and uni kids drink abudantly weekly here to get smashed. It's like a cultural tradition thing over here. Few turn into alcoholics because of it. (maybe some do, but the majority seems to be able to handle it quite fine).

I have been called boring because i don't want go out drinking with people here Like they think less of me because I don't drink

[Annoying]

I have a beer or two with dinner almost every night. Beyond that, weekends might see more action, but not as much lately. Saving money > getting a hangover.

[RareShine]

I don't like alcohol so I hardly ever drink. Nor do I smoke..

[Raging Penguin]

Once in a blue moon. last week I had one glass of whiskey which I didn't have since 6 years ago.

[Unholyground]

Marijuana because it is a million times better for you. But when I do, I drink a few beer, drinking too much gives me terrible pains.

[Hana Song]

Yeah, we used to do that to people who didn't go out with us too. Those people were really a small minority here and they tended to get pestered constantly over it. It's not common for teenagers and young adults to not drink here.

Yes seems like allot of people go out drinking here for weekend also

[luc54]

Never. Unlike smoking I don't really care if people do it around me. I personally want to maintain clear mind in every situation plus on top of that alcohol tastes like piss so not missing anything there anyway.

[Primalthirst]

I used to drink heavily 2 or 3 times a week when I was in college and not drink much outside of that. Now I have 1 or 2 beers most nights after work and maybe a 6 pack on a Friday or Saturday. But I don't drink excessively in peaks and troughs like I used to.

[Dread Pirate Phayde]

Yes I drink alcohol. I've never been a huge drinker though, a couple times a month at most I'll have a mixed drink, rum and coke or kahlua and milk tend to be my go to drinks, except at company functions when the bar has been free, then you drink them into heart attack inducing tabs

Alcohol in moderation is a healthy thing, whereas smoking anything is putting something in your lungs that was not meant to be there. I'm not about to say that a marijuana addiction is more dangerous than alcoholism, but "a million times better for you" is woefully uninformed even if not taken literally.

[tj119]

No, I fight just about everyone in sight when I drink. Not good for other people.

Try equal parts Diserono (or any amaretto) with your Kahlua.

[Belize]

I like wine, Baileys and hard cider!

Might depend a lot on genetics. Not everyone handles alcohol the same.

[Bodom]

Yes.
A couple of times a year.
I like how it makes me feel.
