I don't mean to throw this off topic (I'm sure it'll realign in a day or two), but I just wanted to bring up a few things about drinking that I'm assuming a lot of you don't know (because as far as I know most of you are underage and your only exposure to alcohol education has been from the backwards DARE program).
Number 1, drinking is not about driving an expensive car down the strip at Vegas or partying with girls that have huge tits. It is not in any way "exotic". At least not any more so than say going to the movies with friends.
Number 2, most young people (under 30) over the age of 22 drink socially at least once a week or every couple of weeks. I myself usually get rightly fasnickered every Friday or so (unless I have other plans or things that I need to do).
Number 3, drinking at home with a few close friends and family is a LOT more fun that going out to some party full of assholes, half of which you don't know and most of the rest you wish you didn't know.
Number 4, if you drink at home with friends and family, you don't risk doing REALLY stupid things like driving drunk and killing people.
Number 5, know your limit. There is no such thing as being drunk, drunk. Once you get drunk, you can't get any drunker, all you can get is sick, pass out, have a horrible hangover and possibly even die of alcohol poisoning. Free cl00, if you wake up with a hangover...yeah you probably drank too much. So the point is that once you get sufficiently inebriated, STOP DRINKING, cause you're not gonna get any MORE drunk, yer just gonna be a fuckhead.
Number 6, if you have a lot of Indian heritage, DON'T DRINK! Your physiology can't take it and you'll probably wind up becoming an addict. This has to do with the fact that the white man has been drinking beer for like thousands of years where as the red man didn't even know it existed until we brought the shit over here...which was less than 300 years ago. In other words, the white man has had THOUSANDS of years to build up a natural tolerance towards alcohol, where as the red man has not.
Number 7, if when you drink you become angry, aggressive, stupid, and generally speaking an absolute ass clown...DO NOT DRINK! Cause yer the kind of retard who ruins it for everyone else. You're also the kind of retard whose likely to come home and start beating your family.
Number 8, ANYTHING not done in moderation is an addiction. Whether it's going to the movie theater EVERY day of the week or getting drunk EVERY day of the week, they are no different, either way you have an addiction.
Number 9, NEVER, EVER, FUCKING EVER drink because you don't like the way you feel. The ONLY time you should ever drink is when you are feeling like a million bucks. When you're happy and you know it, yeah, go ahead and pop a cold one. If you're feeling shitty and depressed, DO NOT DRINK! Because that's how you become an addict.
There now, any questions?
