I never undestand why people drink alcohol, which
1. Is very, very bad for you
2. Makes you get sick
3. Doesn't even taste good

Exactly. One of the greatest mysteries of all time. If I want to feel better, I do sports. An hour in the gym or on the hardwood is way, WAAAAAAY better for your mind and body.

Reliance and abuse is definitely destructive behaviour. But alcohol does have a relaxing effect, sometimes it's nice to have a beer or two (OK, sometimes more) at the end of the working week. That said, I don't think many people would drink alcohol if it wasn't for the effects as the taste isn't always pleasant, especially if you're talking about spirits (vodka, for example).

I hope that's not an indication of what you think of them. :x ;)

But no, I'm not. Unlike some, I stay away from the NLSC when I've had a few. I know what happens to those threads.

Didn't mean to afend you just thought that it was funny and just in case you actualy did if we could get you to do them before you get drunk then they might be better [or maybe it would be that you are better at making roster patches drunk].

No offense taken, hence my use of the winking smiley. Though admittedly I do use that one a lot so I couldn't blame everyone if they don't know what I mean by it. :P

I once theorised that I dance better drunk but then realised it's not so much that I'm better, just that I don't care how bad I am.

Well I also drink alcohol and I like the taste, so each to their own.

Consider my hat tipped. The best I can do is an extra strong Screwdriver, once because my brother's other half-brother ordered me one at his wedding last September and the other time when my mates spiked my drink when I wasn't looking because it bothers them no end that I've never thrown up from drinking.

Actually, now that I think about it, I have tasted alcohol once. I once drank a little bit of a Jolly Shandy when I didn't know it had alcohol in it. I only drank a little of it becuase I thought it tasted awful. (N) Really, really awful. (N) (N) (N)

I punched the guy who gave it to me, and sloshed it in his face. I think he swallowed some of it. At least he's going with me to hell.

I don't know about you, but usually have a great time playing basketball, much better than with alcohol in my blood. Although everyone should try the drinkin' dunkin' contest (been there, done that and I'm still alive).

Alcohol makes me laugh and think out loud. Unfortunately i know what's going to come out of my mouth and yet am powerless to do anything about it. Fun times.

Alcohol is probably the only thing that will make me dance in public. Has to be the right amount though :lol:

the taste of vodka is simply atrocious yet i always find myself drinking it when it comes to party time. when it comes time to get drunk, it's always the best one to do the job the fastest. anyone ever try jagermeister? if you ever plan on doing shots, do it with that. doesn't taste half as bad as everything else that's out there.

vodka = yuck
tequila = yuck
whiskey = yuck
scotch = yuck
jagermeister = yay

That doesn't mean you can't do both at different times. I have more fun watching Smallville than watching the news but I still do both.
