Person 2:Sure.

Same here as well, glad to know I'm not alone with this feeling.
Beer = not good but worth it.
Vodka + cool-aid = awesome.

Edit for above post.
LoL I'm talking about a couple of beers in that situation. Enough to relax and open up a bit and still arrive home alive. Not getting hammered.

I don't get what happened to Customer Service.
I don't get most of the comedy of the past 5 years or so, Body jokes got old.
I don't get the lack of intelligence in most of the US Population. I think most of them are Sheeple.
I don't get how any Politician Democrat or Republican can think I'm Stupid enough to belive all the lies they've told me over the year.

I don't get why it seems that people are such morons when any given person you meet seems reasonably intelligent.

I don't get how anyone could look at Sarah Palin and see an intelligent and qualified person.

Or how people can like rap (REALLY like rap not just think a few songs are ok), it's too repetetive and doesn't have a melody.

Getting drunk. Seriously, I could write entire essays on why it's the most senseless form of punishment for your body. What do you honestly get out of it? Most people I talk to hate the taste of hard liquor, but drink it anyway. They hate waking up with a hangover, hate embarrassing themselves when they're drunk, and so on and so on. Yet so many people, even on these forums are all about getting hammered/plastered/whatever you want to call it.

I just don't get it.
Totally agree too. Great post.

I don't get why people would take Drugs or Smoke either.

I don't get, why when some people log onto forums, they lose all their manners and turn their sarcasm/snobbyness metre up off the charts. Just making themselves sound like an @sshole by doing it..

I don't get how anyone can listen to any kind of heavy metal music, because to me it just sounds like a horrible loud grating noise with someone shouting as hard as possible :s

I don't get MMORPGs or people who get addicted to them

I don't get rings, I don't get piercings, I understand tattooing but wouldn't do it, I don't understand what's so great about beer, and I don't understand why Halo is so popular.

There are others, of course, but I won't bore y'all. :)

I don't get children who rip animals from the wild (or see one and ask for it as a pet) and try to tame it down to be like a regular cat or dog. Lizards, for example. They scream at their parents to buy these monitors or other species, mainly because they want a large scaley pet dinosaur dog, their parents fold and get them one (as a hatchling, cheap and wild-caught at the petstore), then the poor creature dies in under a year because it was under stress, cramped conditions, and not cared for properly. Or the lizard bites the child's fingers off. The same instance could be said for a wolf that the parents thought could be tamed and let their children play with it. This also includes smaller species, such as small wild cats, raccoons and similar species, small marsupials, geckos, and the list goes on - except less of a problem for the owners and more fatality to the animals.

I don't understand it whatsoever.


But if I am one to ruin the moment of the thread, I also don't get:

Emaciated women
Assholes on online games (cheaters and the like)
L337 speak
Religious pricks
and over-rating games



Alcohol is great for getting over stress, as it relaxes the muscles. It should not be drunken by everyone, especially those who do not have the brain to know when to stop, but I find it much better and less addictive than smoking, and less painful than hitting trees.

It's an excuse. Alcohol is a way to remove all of your restraints without having to do so completely consciously. Alcohol makes people do stupid things, things they wouldn't do without it. They drink because it lets them be crazy and unrestrained without actually being crazy and unrestrained.
lol Getting hammered is a nice change after too much work and college. Also sharing a beer with someone one on one is the best way to get know them.
I remember once when I was against drinking. But after you mature, you begin to realize that aside from the hangovers and the silliness as well as the fact that you may end up with someone you don't like, getting drunk is something that every once in a while is a nice way to let loose and have fun legally at least to an extent of course. I would never recommend driving drunk or anything that will impair your ability to perform a task that needs your full attention but to say you would never drink because it taste bad or because you don't like the hangovers or whatever that tells me you never really drank before (either that your not old enough too anyway)

Also, liquer only taste bad straight out of the bottle but there are these things called cocktails which make liquer taste better try it for once. And people don't always drink to get drunk. I know when I get home from work after a long hard day all I wanna do is just sit and relax with a beer just to lighten some of the tension I get from working all day. I don't get plastered or anything just one beer.

And to answer the original question about what I don't get.
I don't get people who don't get why people do drugs or get drunk. They do them to make themselves feel better. It's a high feeling, a numbness from the drugs and liquer that screws with their heads thats all, sure it can lead to addiction and very bad things. But most people know that so they stay off of them, but don't ponder over why people do them. I don't do drugs or drink heavily but I don't sit there and think why do they smoke pot or binge drink all the time? Because they feel good when they do. I as a person don't need them to feel good, but some people do. Plain and simple.

Why people still think the "cake is a lie" is still funny
Or, why people think Chuck Norris is aweseome (except the 12 year olds who agree he's awesome because all the other 12 year olds say he is).
How people think alchahol tastes good
Why people do drugs just to be "cool"
The same, but with ciggarettes
Or, why people even smoke ciggarettes to begin with
