On occation, I prefer to keep my mind focused and what not. But it doesn't mean I don't have a good time :p

When I do drink though I tend to go for vodka, seeing as I don't like the taste of anything else.

I'm a pretty big fan of drinking. Although, being Australian I have no sense of moderation, so it can be expensive.

I haven't tried any, being underage, but I do know what Science says about Alcohol.
And Science tells me that getting drunk impairs every sense I've got, and makes a royal moron out of me.

So, no, I'm not going to drink the mind-altering, liver-damaging gook, that provides only temporary and meaningless escape from the trials of life.
I'm pretty sure you also just described gaming. And sex. And pretty much every other joy in life, dude. It's the little things that make up life, and if you avoid these things, well... you have no life. No offense.

Only when I play Mario Cart 64, so I can make up new swear words.

Nope. I don't really like the taste or smell of alcohol. I have had a drink before, but I've never been able to finish it because I get a killer headache.

When I do turn 21 though, I'm going to get drunk. That will be the first and only time I will do so. I just hope I don't do/say anything to make my gf too mad at me. XD

Of course ... I only drink cider, ale and wine because it makes it easier to believe I'm in 16th century continental Europe <.< Only the poorest of the poor drank filthy water.

Kinda funny how time changes things ... people will now spend 4-5 bucks on bottled tap water (yes that's all it is in Australia ... you're deluding yourself if you think it's anything more!) when not that long ago people only drank milk, or fermented drinks due to water contamination o.o

Drinking ale, wine or cider was safer due to the processes that went into it's creation n.n

Rarely. I'll have some alcoholic stuff at christmas or New Year's, but even then I'll have hardly any. I'm not too fond of the taste to be honest.

Ayup.
The most I drank was a few beers, some spirit and half a bottle of Vodka. Didn't get drunk, just a little fuzzy. But we (was in a camp with class) had some epic fun afterwards, so it cannot be bad :)

I'm english with scottish heritage, surprised i'm ever sober really.
I find that offensive. Most people in Scotland are merely weekend alcoholics =P.

I drink rarely, and never on my own. There are cheaper things that I enjoy more. I will have a pint or 2 if I am at a pub to keep my friends from thinking that I am not enjoying myself (no one seems to buy the "it tastes like shit" reason for not liking alcohol here) but apart from that I never drink.

Being Irish, I get a hell of a lot of pressure to drink. While I've no interest in getting drunk myself I don't really mind who is drunk around me. I'm nearly 23 now and think I've done a good job of saying no because I'm just not interested. I personally think I'm enjoyable and fun enough not to need drink. Doesn't stop people topping up my 7up with vodka though hahaha.

I drink straight whiskey, my being of Irish ancestry.

Makers whiskey is my general go to, it's a Kentucky bourbon, doesn't burn your tong, mouth, or throat, but leaves a bad after taste. A chaser can be used but I'd avoid mixing.

I'll have a shot or two after a really long or hard day, and I'll polish off an entire bottle over the course of a night if I'm partying, I'm a heavy-weight drinker, but I don't party often.

The idea of alcohol is that it relaxes people, the trick is to find a drink you like and only drink enough to get a buzz. If you start feeling sick, STOP DRINKING. I hate people that end up throwing up then go back to drinking. It's great to have 1-2 drinks at a social event just because the liquid 'courage' can help you approach people, it calms nerves.

I look at it this way, asking out the hot girl at the party is a Stupid move, and so is everything else that jumps into your head under the influence, but the girl might like you and if the drink got you to go talk to her then it's a good thing, in moderation.

I'm not an alcoholic I just drink constantly
You aren't a alcoholic.

Alcoholics go to meetings :D

OT: I do sometimes but I prefer some of the more tame legal highs.
