What's the point of drinking, the point of being DRUNK?!

@Farmageddon:

People have fun drinking. They feel good.

That's the manipulation talking. How exactly does drinking make them feel fine? Isn't it really a self fulfilling prophecy?

And don't fool yourself, there's social pressure against drinking as well.

It doesn't typically come from the entouragem and that's the one that matters.

The situation of being excluded from a group because you don't drink is usually not quite like that, unless among assholes, in which case drinking is not the problem anyway.

It probably sounded exaggerated, but it definately feel awkward when you're a non-drinker around drinkers, and while they may not say it out loud, the drinkers are somewhat bothered by the presence of the non-drinker also.

Let me list a few reasons for walking:

- Everyone does it. People who don't walk are treated as different and are ostracised.

- Since we're born we see our parents walk and we want to imitate them.

- Walking has a significant hole in social rituals.

None of these are good reasons. So I suppose you don't walk either?

Your list is simply bogus.

You're so much of an alcoholic that you equate drinking with walking? Is it that important in your life? I just hate it when people make bad comparisons, ment to decieve people.

Btw, you wouldn't take half a beer for him/her? You really think half a beer would do you any bad? Or is it just by principle? Or lack of drive? :P

I don't drink. Is that so hard to understand? I don't let myself be pressured into drinking, certainly not by some bimbo. Oh, and I've tasted beer, and it sucked.
