tell me about drinking- (alcohol) how much do you drink a week, can you enjoy yourself without it, is there anybody here who doesn't like drinking. Do you use it as an excuse for behaviour when you knew full well what you were doing? Personally if I'm having even a mildy good time I feel happy without it and don't remember the events in great detail.
depends
yes
possibly you?
No
i basically
don't drink anymore
Um...
I like cider and gin.
i don't really drink that much
i'm used to finding the cheapest drink + highest alcohol percentage + drinking in quick succession. but it's pretty unattractive, so now i just would like to go out and have nice cocktails, and leisurely drinks and get to know the people i'm with but still have a good time.
i fear i'm turning into an old woman.
proper response
thank you!
even if i try to drink sensibly
i get drunk very easily. i'm like so lightweight. :(
too much
sometimes
sometimes
hope this helps
i like it
i dont do it that regularly though. If im going out then i like to drink as it makes drunk people more tolerable.
I only drink roughly once a month
I probably end up vomiting 1 out of 4 times.
sometimes its fun.
Sometimes I just get depressed.
I always remember it all very clearly though.
meh
I drink to get pissed
at the weekends. Its fun.
I don't like talking about drinking.
Cheers.
why not?
a similar reason to jacobjones?
no
I drink but I just find recounting tales of how much you drunk and what you drunk pretty tedious
you're in
a fine mood this evening!
thanks
I am at work though so there's a reason.

Hmm. It's not really a recounting tales thread, more a 'stats and figures' sort of thing. IDK if people are embarrased about how much they have/haven't had.
oh ok
it really depends what I'm doing
Generally
I drink heavily once in the week and once at the weekend.
I can have a good time without drink in some situations, but not in others
i haven't drank any alcohol
since i watched dispatches: drinking yourself to death. however, this is probably just a coincidence..
...
I used to drink an awful lot last year when I went out. The whole binge drinking / drinking purely to get pissed thing. Now I go out less so drink less, and have replaced drink with grass and the occasional pill. I probably drink less than ten units a week. I can definitely have a good time without alcohol, but then if the company is dire there's nothing doing but getting smashed.
babe (sic)
dont forget your dazzling career in diplomacy!
Is that why I've
been out of my head every time I have met you?
lol
I wish i didnt drink...
but i wish more that i could go back to the times when hangovers didnt exsist.
Why do we NOT have them when we're young and start off drinking, but DO have them when we get older????????
It annoys me...discovery of hangovers that is...
I really want to go out tonight and drink and dance
well done stealthy
??
you're decaying
really.
hangovers suck
but with the proper preparation, can be avoided. or i would be dying all weekend every weekend, and quite a few weekdays too.
thats not to say i dont get them, i just manage to prevent them more often than not.
duly noted

i probably drink too much
usually only when i go out or am going to go out but sometimes just when i'm at home and feel like a few why? partly because i enjoy it, partly because i'm not over-endowered with confidence and it helps silence the nagging at the back of my head. i'm also a miserablist, cynical sod and sometimes it's nice to just loosen my grip on reality.
plus, i gotta get ready for that bedsit in peckham...
I like a drink now and then.
If I go out to a club etc I think a drink or two is essential. Not the most confident of chaps.
I drink too much now and then which isn't good. I have very little recollection of what happened last time I went out to a club - I ended up withscratch marks on my neck cos a bouncer strangled me and tried to throw me down the stairs. God knows what I did, I was only away from my mates for a minute.
Don't be doing that on saturday!
I'll try not to
I shouldn't think I will if I stick to the Guiness. Someone gave me this savage drink when I was already on my way. I'll be avoiding the spirits for a while thats for sure.
Hoping to find a decent pub with the under 21 final on after the gig.
Good plan
What time you heading back?
Dunno
Thinking of getting the last train back about half eleven as I've got some shit to do sunday.
From King's Cross right?
I'll leave when you leave then
Yeah
sounds good
