Just finished off my Bud Lite and Disaronno. Feelin' fine.

Whatabout the rest of you? Whatcha got on tap?

I've been enjoying Ommegang Art of Darkness. Other than that I tend towards Belhaven Wee Heavy.

I just had a glass of water.

Toasted Head Chardonnay.

Goose Island Summertime. I just very happily discovered that a small specialty place in my city carries Goose Island stuff. Only in six packs, mind, and they're $9, but feth it. I love their 312, and the Summertime is great too.

Vodka and grape Gatorade, it tastes like Dimetapp and freshman year. It is a good taste.

A nice glass of hardy brothers Merlot. God I love being in Australia, the one thing you can buy. 9 buck bottles of wine which don't taste like a trucker's crack (not that I have tried that).

Would ordrinarily have had a Guinness, put I pulled driver last night.

Nice cup of tea.

No need to play by your rules.

Alcohol is bad for you.

I believe the traditional response to this is 'So's life.'
As it is alcohol is fine in moderation. Too much is obviously bad for you, like a lot of things.

You obviously have too much, Purps.

And for me, strawberry cider.

Jealous much?

Does alcohol make you happy?
I can be happy without.

Games make me happy.
I can also be happy without.

Not sure what your point is...

Lots of things make me happy...
Kittens for instance.
I'm not buoyed up by the presence of alcohol but after a few drinks I find myself enjoying things more than I would normally...
Like Corpses said...
What's your point?

Its so many people you hear saying that to make things nice on, say, a party, they need alcohol. Just wanted to know if people here think that too.
Girl from my old school drank herself in coma at her 12th..

You don't need drinks for a party but it's unusual to have one with no alcohol at all unless most of the people there are under age...
12th birthday party?

Morgan's Spiced Rum

But if the pub has it: Goldschlagger.

And how many girls DIDN'T drink themselves into a coma?

If you're only including alcohol, then I haven't drank anything in ten years.

Dehydration I suppose?

Johnny Walker Black Label. A man's drink.

Hour between lessons.
I dont have problems with alcohol, its just that its like 'party? alcoholic drink!'

I don't drink, yet I'm fine with a party-- so obviously I don't have any problems partying without alcoholic beverages.

There's a lot of alcoholics that can't have fun without beer, but that's their problem, not mine.

If you can't have fun without alcohol, you need therapy. No exceptions.

I agree with ya.

My time table:

If a thing between 2 lessons/spaces with text in it on table, that means is an hour long no lesson, see?

I get drunk on life....

Depends on the type of party. The parties I used to go to in college would be very, very boring (or annoying) if you weren't drinking.

Now? If its a drinking party (ie. not just the courtesy drink) and I can't drink I wouldn't bother going. It changes the dynamic too much. Being the only sober person in the room is tiresome.
