For now? xD; I wonder where you find statistics like that. (And who the hell had time to come up with them?)Siim Neljandik said:
But that makes sense then considering I'm mostly German and Italian.
I drink. Never had bad experiences from alcohol and I'm lucky with that. I know a lot of people can't handle it properly. I just know when to stop. And even though I sometimes go way out of line, I still never had a bad experience. All I do when I'm drunk is cheer up, talk a LOT and be very emotionally engaged with people. That's all.
I don't forget, don't become agressive, don't say stupid stuff, don't fall over, etc. etc.

Dude sometimes it's much more funny to be the sober one ... although you're the paranoid one that something terrible is going to happen from the stupor. But hey drunkies like you when you're reliably the driver. Plus, you can spin the stories how you want from any ridiculousness in question the next day. "Hey man did I make out with Jim last night?" your response "Only for 5 min, that only makes you slightly homosexual." Oh, the funny things to screw with peoples' heads.Korten12 said:
Side note: Nice tag under your username (points at avatar).
I downed about a litre of vodka in the space of 2 hours last night.... so yeah i drink. Vodka gives a good feeling when you get drunk off of it... also i have found that all alchohol offers a different mood altering affect when imbibed... my suggestion to anyone who just thinks it's yucky and makes people do stupid shit... well if you think it's the booze and not the fact that most people are a little less than geniusses to begin with that makes people do stupis stuff, well... i would question the logic there. if you don't overdo it, you won't make an ass of yourself... unless you do that sober in which case you probably will with some booze in you as well...
also... it won't be a guaranteed life shortener either... goin back like 4 generations in my family people drank like fishes and lived a good long time... hell my great grandad was an alchy and he lived to 94, great great grandad also lived into his 90s. my family is generally long lived, and oh yeah everyone in my family who has died young... swore off alchohol entirely... give that a thought... they all died of various forms of cancer and brain disorders and things that just haven't affected the rest at all...
but yeah i suggest testing a wide variety before you swear it off as bad just because of a popular immage... not all people who drink are party animal fraternity following idiots who dance naked in the street and hoot and howl and do stupid things after a few drinks.

I think it was made by the EU. The whole thing was a bit of a scandal in Estonia. The health organizations had campaigns about that so the people would drink less. For me they were not very effective (pouring myself another shot of minttu...)pharaoh malik said:
Sober since 1996. I was 19.
See, the only difference between "assault charges were dropped" and "manslaughter" is the fact that the victim of my violent-drunk berserker's rage survived the night in the hospital. And he said "I won't press charges but you have to promise to clean your ass up, man."
Oh, did I mention that the victim was my best friend since childhood? And that his only crime was making eye contact with my girlfriend and having me take it the wrong way?
Yeah. That's why I don't drink anymore.

I personally did not drink alcohol until my 18th birthday. Now, I'm typing this very post a bit mellowed
I didn't drink that much before I turned 20 , but now I drink everytime I go to a bar or a party. Which is like once a week, sometimes more. It's fun to get drunk.
Underage, but yes, I do drink it, although very rarely. Cider to be precise. It used to just be a quick steal now and then to see what it was like, but I was quite surprised when my Dad offered me a bottle. I drank it. It was good. I woke up Hungover, I pretty much stopped there and then.
Perhaps the odd sip now and again though, nothing major that could really heavily impact me negatively.

I used to be against drinking myself, but now I drink for taste. It's fun to try new things and build a palette. I'm fascinated by the craft of making beers, whiskeys, and wines, and I'm learning to differentiate different brands and styles. It's like a little adventure for your mouth. But, since I tend to choose pricier things based on taste, I don't drink very much at a time.
Yes, but never just for the sake, or just to get drunk.
I've always preferred cider or white wine to most beers, so I'll drink stuff I like if it's around, but not miss it that bad if it's gone..
It's nice to drink at a party or a gig, though earlier this year I ended up on some harsh antibiotics and painkillers and had the best gig experience of my life, completely sober! It just goes to show, both sides have their perks..
