Current Events > Anyone else not get da appeal of alcohol?

(+) Yeah! (+)

As i see it, its only used by people who are hella sad and desperately need it to "get in a better mood" but often backfires a lot

Not to mention people drinking and driving, it should honestly be banned tbh
---

I get the appeal. I've even worked in bars so I know that drinking is the same as shaking someone's hand in some circles.

I've been fortunately been keeping it in moderation. Though I have been trying to get out and sing karaoke, which is usually the only time I drink anymore.

---

Beer is love. Beer is life.

---

If is with others ya, but I know people that rather Drink for everything.

---

I have personally never liked the taste of any I have tried, but to each their own.

---

I drink but I'm not always proud of it.

The worst part is how beer makes you fat, like if I cut out beer from my diet I would be wayy healthier. I've been cutting back recently tho.

---

If I have beer I have like 2 miller lites at most, it makes me feel relaxed.

---

I've never tried it, so I don't get the appeal of it at all.

I'm pretty sure that means you do not have an opinion on the matter.

It just makes things more fun when everybody is a little drunk.

All your friends hanging out? Well now everybody is more social and talking about things and doing fun things they normally wouldnt if sober.

---

It cures boredom and temporarily kills sadness.
Then increases it.
Then makes you feel sick.
Then cures that sick feeling!

---

Sorry you topic reminded me of this so I had to post it.

I drink like half a liter to a liter of liquor and 100-130oz of beer most nights, so I get the appeal. It can be pretty mind-bending and awesome once you get enough in your system. Start having really fun and interesting thoughts and can enjoy entertainment much better.

I never drive drunk though and rarely drive even when sober anyway.

---

It was a big part of the best era of my life. But once I got in my 20s and everyone got depressed drunk, I was good on it.

The experiences I got from 16-20 while drinking makes me know that alot of that teen movie shit is actually real tho.

I gained like 3 lbs in my 30 years of drinking.

And almost 60 beers a week for the last 10 years.

I get the appeal, it just doesn't appeal to me.

i can't get past the taste, tbh.

i'm also not big on mind altering drugs, but I won't fault anyone else for using them.


---

honestly small amounts of alcohol help me a lot

my problem is that I like to mix things with alcohol or overdo it. Once you hit like 30 overdoing alcohol is really taxing on you too.


---

Never had alcohol. Never will. Waste of money. Waste of health. Waste of calories. Waste of life.

---

Alcohol is fun and there's a lot of variety in drinks as well which makes it interesting.

Like being a depressed drunk who drinks by themselves isn't supposed to be the draw of alcohol.

It doesn't make you more fat than anything else does. It all depends on your lifestyle and how active you are.

I've drank beer daily my entire adult life and I've never gained weight because of it.

This is actually me now. You'd never be able to guess I drank twice a week back in the day with how turned off I act about alcohol now. Im not judging others but when they even bring it up I go stinkface.

---

Alcohol is pretty dope. It's a fun, casual drink, getting crazy drink and a depressed drink all in one!

---

Ive been sober for almost three years but I get the appeal of drinking if you dont have a problem with control and moderation

I get it, and occasionally partake, but I'd much rather just smoke grass these days

Its Friday morning and Im drinking mimosas while I work. Whats wrong with that?

I love whiskey. I don't like the effects.

Nice. I've been having some screwdrivers. Great breakfast drink.
---

It makes you temporarially happier and makes it easier to talk to other people, not really much to get

---

Ive found many great dinners to become that much more incredible if paired with the right alcoholic drink

The funniest thing about this topic is Vegy thinking that he's in any position to be judging how anyone else lives their lives.

I only have alcohol for really special events so once every six months or so. And even then it's never more than one, getting drunk has no appeal to me.

Some ya'll need your minds altered. Ironically, it's usually the people strongly against it.

---

I cut out all alcohol and weed and all illicit intoxicants and I feel way way better.

I agree TC

---

I just do it to go out and meet people, and sometimes go out and meat people.

---

Drinking makes social events more fun in my experience.

---

I still like having a buzz because it makes me more sociable. But I haven't enjoyed getting completely shit-faced in like a decade.

I get the impression that he lives his entire life online and has very little real world experiences. Even his stories about going out in public and seeing hot women or having very minor interactions with them are completely made up.

Not only that, but it has been banned in the past and we saw how that worked out.

I believe them just cause I see attractive girls all the time at my local Walmart. I can believe he goes to Walmart. Walmart chicks are underrated btw. Everyone only highlights it's worst.
