As a kid, I tried alcohol with my parent's blessing and thought I was the coolest little shit on the block.

As a teen I continued to drink from time to time because I could but quickly came to realize how little I liked it and I Realized I was just doing it to be cool. It never had an effect on me no matter how much I drank; I never got a buzz or comfortably numb or anything like that. It just tasted bad, was expensive, and made other people idiots I didn't want to be around.

As a young adult and legal drinking age, I got bored of it but people still thought I was fun to party with so I drank until I was blackout drunk (Took a full 40oz on my own), and haven't drank since then. I just don't see the appeal and only ever did when I was an insecure kid trying to fit in and be cool. Now I'm just my own person and I not only don't drink but don't smoke or do any drugs. I just don't see the appeal and don't understand people who do. I like having my mental faculties, thank you very much.

Well, personally, the main reason I drink is to take a break from the often terrifying and demanding nature of reality and just enjoy feeling relaxed and spaced out. I don't think to the point of being sick though, it's a fine balance you gotta hit.

I don't smoke or do any illegal drugs though; I have no desire to get lung cancer and I don't wanna go to jail.

To add to this thread...

I just like to enjoy the pleasures of life. Drugs, sex, and alcohol are pretty big ways to do that :D

A drink is an exclamation point.

Some weed makes mundane routine tasks FUN. A small splash of whisky, or a toke, makes my mind feel like video games while working the desk or working out. I actually like runs, but sometimes going the same route gets tiring, a bit of weed makes it feel like Christmas. It's not like weights where I can literally just pump iron and watch TV... although a bit of weed with the weights really shoots up the discipline.

Also, it's a REALLY good way to tolerate the insane nonsense of children's birthday parties.

Ever feel anxiety? Well, about 1/2 a shot of whisky will clear that anxiety away for me, a lot better than those anti-anxiety pills.

And speaking of Christmas, weed at Christmas makes me feel like this kid:
