To drink, or not to drink.....

spacecowboy · 12-01-05, 19:15

that is the overall question?

mushit · 12-01-05, 19:17

Drink!

Texas_Bob · 12-01-05, 19:25

I definatly drink with the intent to get sloshed druuuunk!

mushit · 12-01-05, 19:30

Boy, am I toopid! I scrolled down before I saw the poll. Duh.

I drink most of the time without the intention to get drunk. Thats what the hash is for. But I usually do get drunk. **HIC**

What's the diff between regular and occasional? once a day vs once a week?

Good question, that is a hard one to answer, as it my vary person to person based on the person's point of view.

But I would say ocasionaly would be maybe 1-2 a month or less, unless you alwalys drink like every two weeks, then that would fall under regularly cuz its a habit, even if it is only 2 times a month. But I really think it is one's own personal opinion on what regularly and occasionally are.

Here are definitions I just pulled off the web:

regular
regularly

occasional
occasioanlly

wow, i'm glad I'm not the only one that doesn't like to drink.

I use to... but the negatives out weighed the positives for me. I just don't like the feeling of being drunk or the headache that I usually get the day after. I use to drink a lot early on in college, but by the end it tapered off and I never felt the urge again.

viraljimmy · 12-02-05, 08:14

Total alcoholic. No excuse for it.
And I drink to get drunk.

Hippie3 · 12-02-05, 08:59

cheers!

12-02-05, 21:56

Yep, I drink like a 12 pack a night but I skip maybe 2 nights a week... I never really get too drunk, though, just a good buzz....

mushaman · 12-03-05, 05:50

My drinking habbits are so common place that if i don't drink one night i find myself with some sort of liquid at ALL times, usually water. Guess thats good, flush the system out haha.

jrogers311 · 12-04-05, 14:58

I drink regularly for medicinal purposes-muscle relaxation, pain relief and on special ocasions to get lit! Though if alcohol didn't get you looped I'd stick to milkshakes.

anticheffy · 12-04-05, 16:15

none for me no more.........makes doc mad, and she's a pistol when shes mad....

shimmy · 12-14-05, 00:39

ill do shots and drink anyone under the table for pride and kicks whenever oppurtinity knocks or i will chug a bottle of rum to get a few laughs and grins from my drinkin buddies

12-14-05, 11:41

Twice a week to get drunk.

perrch01 · 12-14-05, 12:59

I don't have the time to get drunk, although if I did I imagine it would be about once a week at most

Same here! If i'm awake and it's after noon, i'm getting stoned and drunk...

kingstrrophariad · 12-20-05, 07:00

help me understand why anyone would drink WITH OUT the intent to get drunk. isnt that the point!

doodaa man · 12-20-05, 21:31

I love beer ! but i don't like to get drunk. I drink to get a good buzz, not stupid,fall down drunk ! I like to still keep things in control !
But, ya... Bring on the suds and the buds !

red_lenses · 12-29-05, 06:06

I drink almost every day..
2-6 beers after work, then on sat. i hit the jagermeister!
Usually only get drunk on weekends tho.
I dont even get a buzz from 6 beers unless on an empty stomach

Raul del Angelo · 01-08-06, 23:16

I don''t drink too much since I got diabetes. But I love the burn from whiskey, gin and brandy.

mushit · 01-08-06, 23:23

Gotta love those Gin Martini's.

DJTetsu · 01-09-06, 18:38

I stopped fucking around with being too fucked up. A DUI and stories about my dad and my bro getting DUI's just stopped my party. There isn't that much benefit from being slushed (vs. getting a good buzz) other than to potentially do something you're going to regret later. For me, lately it's been 3 beers and then off to 3 Red Bull and Vodkas.

I kno, that's still a good amount. I don't want to ever have to quit. That's why it's even more imparative that I can control it. I usually bring in just enough cash to the club/bar to buy me the above drinks. Don't buy me anything!

agentstone · 01-24-06, 18:56

After researching about alchohol. I only drink like 1 beer a day.... sometimes on the weekends with friends i like to get buzzed and on very special occasions.. DRUNK.

Alchohol large doses of alchohol daily are far worse than drinking an equal ammount over a weeks time or so.

Alchohol in excess all the time is bad for your liver friends... ALSO is makes your brain shrink and makes it harder for you to learn new things.

Peace, love, entheogens.
