Do you drink?

[InnerRebellion]

I don't drink yet, since I'm too young...but once at my friend's house I downed a small bottle of vodka on a dare. Tasted great...I felt like shit a few hours later.

 

[Denamic]

Nope.
Don't like the taste of alcohol, and it gives me migraines anyway.

 

[Hessmn212]

I do, but not very often. Even then I only drink beer.

 

[smurf_you]

No.

My mother and step-father and alcoholics, and have really given me a jaded opinion on the substance.

My Step-dad was too.... and he left beer bottles everywhere.... I hate drinking and if I do.... it's never more than two

 

[Phoenixlight]

No as I have high moral standards and don't particularly like the idea of liver failure or the loss of brain cells.

 

[alexjones89]

im drinking right now, not that im constantly drinking or anything, but i just finished work and bought a few beers on the way home as tomorrow i have a day off! Cheers!

 

[Chrono212]

Nope. These are fun to mess around with and make non-alcoholic cocktails instead

Spoiler: Monin Syrups

 

[TyrantGanado]

Yay for alcohol! I'm sure it's genetically wired that Scots will enjoy the stuff but eh, it's a good social catalyst. The same situation filled with sober people would, 9/10 times, be infuriatingly boring.

 

[Kasawd]

Indeed, I do drink.

Usually once or twice a week according to what friends are doing. I try not to drink alone.

 

[Macgyvercas]

Yes, but not a lot. The most I've ever had in one day is one beer (then again, that's not saying a lot, seeing as I turned 21 yesterday. However, I did have one on the 4th and one on the 17th of July. Didn't do much afterwards. Mainly sat around for an hour).

 

[Broady Brio]

Only with my friends at party/camping.

Add sugar and you get exploding giggles and tee hees.

 

[Josdeb]

No.

My mother and step-father and alcoholics, and have really given me a jaded opinion on the substance.

Same except its my aunt and grandpa who had the problems. Personally, I don't really see the appeal anyway.

Same for me, except it was my grandmother dying of liver failure.
Not to mention, a) I'm underage anyway; b) I don't need it be be interesting at a party - the only place I'd even be drinking; and c) I don't want something else I have to pay for. I'm trying to save up here!

 

[Timbydude]

Nope. It's illegal for me since I live in the US. A quick buzz isn't worth the risk of getting caught.

 

[dudemister]

I'm runck dight now

 

[fuhier]

I'm not an alcoholic i just hate my wife and kids!

 

[bob-2000]

Nope, I never have and never will. I don't like substances that make me stupid and not myself.

 

[Low Key]

Yes, because I can.

I didn't know I needed a reason to drink alcohol. Do I need a reason to watch a movie or dye my hair or play a video game?

 

[DuplicateValue]

And not liking the taste is no excuse - there's a huge variety of different brands and flavours you can get, you can't hate all of them.
If all else fails, mix some vodka in with your favourite soft drink and taste is no longer an issue.

I couldn't disagree more. All types of alcohol share a common taste. Obviously there are thousands of varieties and quality levels, and some are easier to down than others, but it's still easy to pick out an alcoholic drink from a non-one, even in your favorite drink. And some people just don't like that alcohol taste.

Maybe that's true for the majority of alcoholic drinks, but there are some that you genuinely couldn't tell whether or not there's alcohol in them.
Smirnoff Ice, for example, tastes not much different from regular lemon drinks (Club lemon, etc).

 

[NeoAC]

Oh indeed. I am something of a tank, as long as I don't hit vodka. Vodka doesn't like me, and I don't like it. I can go on beer or rum all day long.
