I know a lot of people who like to be drunk 3 times a week . . . I usualy play the DD role XP sometimes it sux because I can't drink and other times It's realy nice because I have a reason to say no when they want to get me plastered. I like to drink but I only do it mabie once a month. I usualy have acsess to alcohol but I dont find it nessisary to always be plowed.

  • Again, I have to agree with georgedemonkey. And not just because we're friends! xD

    I dislike that some of my friends see a bottle of alcohol, and must consume it. They don't understand 'saving it.'

    I especially hate it when people come over to my house already drunk, and drink more. The alcohol they are drinking after they are already drunk won't do anything except make them puke!! They are wasting so much money! AAAAAAAARRRRGHHHH!


georgedemonkey 12-07-2007 10:56 PM

Wow padfootsy, your realy anti waisting money today . . . you broke or something?

Cherry 12-08-2007 12:07 AM

I totally agree. I'm 18 (legal here) and I dont really plan on ever getting 'wasted' or 'plastered' or 'blind'.
I dont see the point, if you truly can't remember what happened to you, the next day, then surely that means you've done damage to your brain, not to mention your liver >< I like my brain cells!
I've been quite tipsy before, from almost 6 'standard' drinks in a few hours (Cruiser Blacks =D, but I remember more about that night than my friend who didn't touch a drop lol (I would have had the last cruiser -inthe4pack- but I was already nearly falling over,lol)
I dont see anything wrong with having a few drinks to ease an awkward atmosphere, or liven up a few people. But personally I dont need alcohol to have fun, its not the basis for my gatherings, my ex-school friends hardly drink anyway.

I got buzzed once when I ordered a drink called Mojito and drank it too fast. It gave me a headache, and that was when I understood that I got buzzed. I didn't do any embarrassing things, save for telling everybody about it. I've never been totally plastered, though, and hopefully, I never will.

georgedemonkey 12-08-2007 07:34 PM

Yay for mojito's!
Most of the time if you get a headache from drinking it just means you don't drink enough water and you are dehydrating yourself . . . and thats not very smart and realy you shouldn't blame that on the alcohol

Risque 12-08-2007 07:50 PM

I'll have myself a Shirley Temple. C:
I never liked the idea of getting drunk, it's disappointing to know that people have so less self-control.
My sister always goes out to birthday parties with her friends, and they constantly talk about getting buzzed and all that shit, here I am listening in and going, "Give me an effing break!" I thought we were past the whole, drinking is fun when you're not legal thing. -_-

I'm not legal to drink, but I treat alcohol as any other drink, and I don't really find it that good, my first time trying vodka was okay, cause that stuff tasted pretty good, but beer? Man. <_<

Fabby 12-08-2007 08:17 PM

I'm fifteen, and I've gotten drunk... a few too many times. O_O
Yes, the completely and totally shitfaced can't stand up straight what's your name kind of drunk.
I used to drink A TON.
I would do it whenever I felt bad, since getting drunk made me feel better.

Then one day I realized... OH SHIT, I'M GOING TO BE IN ALCOHOLIC IN APPROXIMATELY TWO GOD DAMN WEEKS!
Plus, I'm on pills, and alcohol fucks with them.

Now I won't say that I don't drink, but only on very rare occasions. I haven't actually gotten drunk in MONTHS. I feel so proud of myself! :D
It's a real accomplishment for me.
I have a terribly hard time saying no to alcohol.
It's my weakness.
Which... is why I try to avoid it, as I'd like to not be addicted.

And I don't drink with people I don't really know anymore.
Because I tend to get.. stupid...
And do things like.. make out with my best friend's boyfriend.. O_O
And jump around topless singing Numa Numa.

Fun times? XD I'm not sure if that was or not.

That's my rant of the day. :D

This once I was at a friend's house and we all drank a whole bunch -- Strawberry daiquiri, then cherry pepsi mixed with rum. I didn't really get drunk, but I acted like it because I like making people laugh? xD; Maybe it's because I found it amusing myself :3

In all honesty, I really don't like the taste of alcohol -- like, any of it xD; My relatives have tried so hard, and this thing with my friends. I'm allowed alcohol at family events -- wine is just disgusting and burn-y -- I can't make myself like it at all xD; And liquor is just the same way. It's something I'll drink, but I secretly think it's quite a bit disgusting. ^___^;

I refuse to even try beer >.>; Smell is supposed to be, like, 90% of what you taste, and the smell of beer makes me gag xD;;;

I'm seventeen, by the way ^__^; I can't remember if the drunk episode with my friends happened this year or last year when I was sixteen (maybe I was drunk xD; ) -- But my family has officially let me drink since Christmas of 2006 ^__^;

Ignorance 12-09-2007 05:21 AM

I just hate alcohol of any type.

Wine, beer, etc.

I think it tastes awful. I mean, pure awful. The bitterness and it's just..weird.

I'd prefer juice/pop, really. Or coffee. =P

JuliaV 12-09-2007 06:40 AM

lol I hate beer.
I've tasted it when i was seven. I took a sip to see what was so great about it and hated it, never tasted it since. ^_^
I hate people who just drink to be cool or to get wasted.
UGH!
That annoys the HELL out of me. >=[

I too, would prefer juice or coffee. =q Yum!

Berginyon 12-09-2007 08:02 AM

Reading some of the other posts on this forum, I am of the opinion that my family's drinking practices when it comes to age is just a titch more liberal than most. But then again, I'm Canadian, and the drinking age there is actually 19. Not to mention in my mid teens I lived in England, where the drinking age is... a myth. lol. I s#$% you not, at the age of 16, my high school (rather the british equivalent of high school) teachers would take us out on house trips to get off our faces. I suppose the advantage was that they could chaperone us and make sure none of us did anything too stupid.

Truth be told, I don't see what the big deal is about drinking to get drunk. I mean, obviously it's not healthy to do it ALL the time, and certainly not more than special occasions allow. But you know, there's no harm in cutting loose every now and then with a group of friends and just having a fun, good old fashioned smash-o-rama. Most of the time though, there's no need to get carried away. Couple drinks is more than enough for me!

Underage drinking though? That would really depend on where you live. Certainly, it's not viewed the same overseas as it is here. In England, if youre at least 15, you can hang around in the bar, and someone else can buy you a drink. But at the same time, I see how people in the States can get a bit nervous about it. Putting 15 year olds behind the wheels of cars seems dangerous enough to me, without letting them drink as well ^^

Scathmere 12-09-2007 08:42 AM

I drink sometimes. Usually only 1-2 times per year, usually on a holiday.

Arilu 12-09-2007 08:58 AM

I love alcohol. In all it's forms. There is so much variety, so many different combinations and concoctions it's mind-boggling!

I often drink, but very rarely get drunk. I am over the legal drinking age, but I have drank since I was very young. Wine has always been a vital part of my family's culture. I have never once seen a family member get intoxicated.

I have a large collection of different alcohols and wines. I am not as big of a fan of beers, although I do drink them on occasion.

I'm actually drinking right now, a lovely cabernet sauvignon I picked up a few months ago at a wine tasting. Windy Ridge, a California vintage, 2002. It has a powerful, floral bouquet with fruity overtones. It is aromatic and absolutely enchanting. Sweet enough to drink alone, but not so much that I'd call it a dessert wine. In the future I'd likely pair it with cheese and fruit or maybe a light seafood dish.

Allucard 12-09-2007 11:30 AM

I don't think I can get drunk on beer. Or much of anything. I think it's because I don't like it. I don't enjoy the taste, so I drink it slowly. A sip or two at a time, so by the time I've actually finished a drink, I've essentially already sobered up. I got a little tipsy once. But that might have just been dizziness. My friend thought I was drunk too, but I really don't think I was. I wasn't doing anything out of the ordinary for me. Okay, I was talking to people. That's weird for me. But that was it.

Shakey 12-09-2007 12:06 PM

When I was ten, I got hyper on a teeny weeny glass of wine on Christmas :3 I took some because I saw how happy my mum was when she had a glass so yah :3 That was my first and last experience with alcohol though :3 My father is Muslim and I've decided to follow his religion and drinking alcohol is against our religion xDD

I dont like the idea of getting drunk anyway Dx;;

secretdae007 12-09-2007 01:22 PM

[Dae is underage] I have really had no reason to drink and frankly, don't put myself in the situation where my peers would pressure me to do so. Most of my friends don't drink, and the ones that do know better than to pressure me.

Also, I think people who drink to get drunk need to get help -.-;

Edit: Also, when you hear people puking their guts out in the bathroom from drinking too much.... definitely a turn off to alcohol...

Peppermint 12-09-2007 01:43 PM

    Horribel stories i've heard before. ><

Thats why they invented shots . . . so you don't have to enjoy the taste to be drunk! You should consider wine coolers, it's usually a good way to get into drinking.

8bit Girls Bravo 12-10-2007 02:13 AM

lulz, gettin' drunx.

I've been drunk a LOT. And I only just recently turned the drinking age here. (19.) W/e. It's part of being a teenager. It's fun to let my hair down every once in a while.

My personal favourite is a nice, light local beer. Amsterdam Blonde is fantastic. So is Steam Whistle. I love local beers because they're always crisp and fresh on tap, and they're usually cheaper :3
I also love black rum & diet Coke. Mmm.

I don't like coolers or shooters. Bleh. Too sweet for me, they make me sick to my stomach.

Ithir 12-10-2007 02:31 AM

I've tried wine, some sort of crappy pina colada from a bottle, and sniffed one of the hard liquors.

I don't think I'll ever be able to drink alcohol.
Unless it tastes like chocolate. ^^

Anoni 12-10-2007 02:40 AM

  • I don't remember when I first tasted alcohol, but it was probably beer or wine. I actually got sick of drinking by the time I had turned the legal drinking age (18). XD I drink in moderation these days, and I don't like getting wasted either.

    I don't like beer because I don't like the taste and it gets me 'drunk' easily. I prefer chick drinks, i.e. mixers and cocktails.

iClimax 12-10-2007 02:47 AM

OMG so lucky! I wish it was the last day for me. 2nd semester is about to end. But I have never been drunk. My birthday is Tuesday and I'm throwing a party with me and my closest friends, that might be my first time getting drunk. :3

There is something called a Chocolate Martini ^^ Haven't had one yet but the name intrigues me. It looks like its that chocolate jello pudding in a martini glass.
