Poll of the Day > if you don't drink, i don't trust you, ok?

(+) Yeah! (+)

i know i've said this before, but i'm reiterating, for my sake, ok?

so, if you don't drink alcohol, i don't trust you, ok?

THAT BEING SAID, there are exceptions to that rule.

just to name a few (but certainly not all): allergic reactions, history of family alcoholism, loss of a loved one, family alcohol abuse, drunk injuries/accidents, mental illness, etc etc...

if you have actual good reasons you don't drink, then you're an exception, and good for you for being responsible, ok?

but if you don't drink "just because", then i don't trust you.

like, what the fuck, ease up and have a drink, ok?

Because it's too expensive, don't taste great and my liver appreciates being clear.

what better reason than alcohol tastes like shit

Glad that's cleared up, ok?

Some alcoholic drinks are cheap enough. As for it tasting like "shit" I find that odd as there is many different drinks all with their own taste.

That's not a good way to look at it.

I don't drink because I don't like it and don't like how everyone glorifies drinking. To each their own. And no, I don't go around telling people to stop drinking, etc. I respect people's decisions.

i dont really drink because weed is way better and not as shitty.

it's not really valid. it's kind of like saying "meat tastes like shit" or "fruit tastes like shit", ok?

that's a broad-ass statement, because there are millions of different kinds of alcoholic beverages out there. sure, if you only drink the shit ones, it will probably taste like shit to you, ok?

Energy sources logically taste alright, alcohol is damaging.

The nice ones are better if you take out the alcohol.

I never drank then I went to college and did kinda a lot and didnt like the feeling of not totally being myself
Then I stopped drinking (except for my 21st cuz people would be disappointed)
So I dont like drinking.
Plus I like how I look and drinking makes it harder to keep my figure tbh.

But even when I stopped I still rarely do, some of the people I know do every week and the onlynways to hang out with them are that or hookah and if I wont do it they wont see me all week so yeah. But I never hookah

that'd be a nice sentiment if you only ate/drank for nutrition alone. you ever drink soda? eat candy? ice cream? cake? fried foods? those are damaging too, ok?

again, that's a broad-ass statement, ok?

Maybe youre not smart enough? Idk~ maybe you just dont matter enough for me to explain it slowly for you~

ok

I just drink on occasion, I love drinking but alcoholism runs in my moms side of the family (don't know about my dad's, he was adopted, but he isn't an alcoholic) my grandpa, both uncles, a bunch of 3rd and 2nd cousins, and even my grandma and great aunt's drink a lot but aren't as bad as the guys
---

I thought I would become and alcoholic because it runs in the family. Turns out I was right.

I juat started dranking last year at 27
---

I know myself too well, with how I get obsessed with complex stuff that's pointless and fun, and my family has a history of alcoholism.

I realize that I probably have the will to negate any sort of addiction habits, but I don't want to roll those dice so f*** it. There's always other stuff. Like I know I would love the f*** out of some wine, white wine especially, the smell of it is amazing by itself.

They are all massive energy sources, they're tasty because their macronutrients are sky-high. Excessive energy consumption is damaging, but no energy consumption is fatal.

And it's broadly factual. Cocktails are awesome, but fruit juices, syrups and creams are even better.

you missed my point. if we only ate/drank for sustenance, like nutrients (and yes, energy), you'd have a good point. most likely you are getting sources of energy from much healthier things. we don't need cake, ice cream, fried foods, etc. in fact, i'd say they're mostly damaging, kind of like the way you described alcohol, ok?

Energy sources logically taste alright, alcohol is damaging.

also, i might add, that statement is two separate points, neither of which is factual, ok?

also, that's far from factual, ok?

i'll see if i can link you to a page that describes the differences between fact, and opinion, ok?
