Why is there no plain yes option? i don't exactly drink in moderation but not too much either
And what IS moderation? what might be moderate for me is your monthly consumption

Just this afternoon we had to wait an hour for a guest lecture, but thankfully we have a cafe right next to our building.

For the rest, Saturday mostly while going out and sometimes i'll start Fridays at friends.

Moderation is however much you want it to be.
If you don't like how much you are drinking the top option is for you.

Recently starting actually drinking alcohol, but in moderation. For example when my best mate hangs out with me saturday night's we'll probably have a drink or two to relax, but not much else (and only light drinks). Since I only really started "going out" and stuff, i'm experiencing that experience as well which is fun but I try to keep it in moderation, although I did get quite jolly a few weeks ago at a party which earned me the nickname "Sprinkles".

I haven't really tried many alchoholic beverages yet but I do like Kopparberg, Jagermeister (and Jagerbombs) and Disarrono with Coke. Vodka too, but i've only tried a bit as I realise how dangerous that stuff can be in excess. Beer and Guinness doesn't taste very nice to me though, tastes like crap in my opinion. I look forwars to trying other things... luckily there is a party i'm going to in two weeks so... looking forward to that. Not sure if i'm a light-weight or not yet.

Yes, more than I should and probably too much of it. I drink socially, and tend to go out quite a bit. I know it's bad for me (and my bank balance) but I just love doing it.

I don't drink at all and think Alcohol is a plague on society.

But nobody will ever take that seriously. Take people's booze away and they riot.

So, I don't really care if you drink, I just want no part of it. I won't openly hate you for it or explain my views to people while they drink and enjoy themselves.

I drink a glass or two of wine from time to time. I have never gotten drunk, nor do I ever plan on doing so. I just fail to see the appeal.

I drink with friends to socialise, or when watching a movie. But never get drunk. Hate when im not in control, cant walk or brain is to fuzzy to make choices. Drink for social and fun. The idea of drinking to get drunk is immature and pathetic.

I sure do. Nothing like a nice cold beer or cider to unwind after work. I'm also a bit of a pub quiz fan at the moment so I find myself in a pub once or twice a week, so I'll usually have a couple then. I think a little tipple can be a wonderful thing for social bonding, relaxing and lightening up.

Not a big fan of getting drunk though. I think I got that out of my system - vomit pun intended - during my student days.

I drink WAY TOO MUCH SOJU! I have no idea how my coworkers can get drunk like they do on a bi-nightly basis...just unfathomable to someone who thought that he could drink like a fish!

No. Too many alcoholics in the family, including a brother who almost died of alcohol poisoning in high school.

No, I don't drink, don't get me wrong I have nothing against it. I just don't have friends so drinking alone seems kind of sad and most likely would be the ultimate bottom of the barrel for me.

I do enjoy me some good beer. But I drink in moderation, and don't get hammered. I mean, it's just silly, if you drink to forget, nothing will change, if you drink to party, I don't see why you'd want to not remember anything in the morning.

No, never have, never will. Personally see it as a weakness at best, a crippling vice and a plague on society at worst. Can't imagine the appeal behind, guess some people just enjoy killing themselves.

Simple poll. If so why, if not, why not?
Anyway, your thoughts?
Yup. I've never gotten properly drunk, as I see no reason to, but I enjoy fluffy drinks.

Like Baleys Irish Cream (or the generic equivalent) in milk or milk coffee (like those pre-made Starbucks vanilla drinks). Yummy.

Or Amaretto. I fucking love Amaretto.

Yes. In fact, I have a dram of Talisker in front of me right now :)

I don't like getting pissed. But I really love the taste of a good single malt whisky.

I would never force a drink on anybody who does not want one. But I will also not abide anyone preaching to me about the evils of drinking.
