Alcohol also tastes very nasty. So that is three reasons for you.

If tea was as good cold as it is warm people would definitely drink it ALWAYS.omega 616 said:I have to question the thought behind this thread, "it has been done a million times, so lets do it again". Especially since the exact same thing was a subject to a thread yesterday.
On topic.
I haven't had a drink in over 3 years. I am not opposed to drinking, I am opposed to the amount the western world drinks.
It seems alcohol is like air, have it with everything. Long day? Booze, your having a meal? Booze, your celebrating or mourning? Booze, your bored? Booze, you want something to drink While watching TV/film? Booze. It's Friday/Saturday and your going out? Booze.
In all the above examples you never have the "RDA" of alcohol, do you? You always have 5 or 6 pints which is technically binge drinking, even though you feel no effect. Which is a shocking fact in it'self.
I will drink to celebrate or whatever but doing it just 'cos it's there is stupid, to me anyway. Like why do you have to go to a pub and buy booze to have a good conversation? Can't you go "Friends" style and go to a coffee shop, spend half as much and still have a good chat?
To those saying "I like it for the taste", it reminds me of a joke. "I like the taste of tea, that doesn't mean I drink 10 pints a night!", which if you apply it to tea makes it seem insane. If somebody said to that to you, you would burst out laughing but if somebody says that about booze it sounds like there bragging, to which you come back with your "HA! I drank 10 pints of ... then I had 5 shots of ... follwed by 3 crazy cocktails I would never order sobre".
You only pay taxes on what you don't make yourself. I can't remember the last time I paid a food and beverage tax or alcohol tax for buying alcohol.Biodeamon said:and is heavily taxed.
Lipton ice tea tastes like water, even the flavoured ones seem more watery then actual flavour.rokkolpo said:If tea was as good cold as it is warm people would definitely drink it ALWAYS.omega 616 said:I have to question the thought behind this thread, "it has been done a million times, so lets do it again".

Like they do with ice-tea. (I don't like ice-tea though, lot of people do)
