    Somebody on this site once virulently argued with me about how drinking isn't bad for you lol I'm pretty sure it was a very young person who just really likes drinking and was in total denial about it being negative in any way.

        The things you like must also be righteous and good for you or else that may take some introspection and vulnerability and acceptance of shortcomings to continue enjoying them. :wojak-nooo:

      I'm fine admitting it's bad for you, but I'll get in arguments against the teetotalers that are in our midst though when they get judgy about it

        It's bad for you, but so is participating in industrial society. Drinking as a social event existed well before industrial society, so I say let's keep the booze and ditch the bourge

        The eternal "at what point does my temporary enjoyment turn into chronic discomfort" struggle of middle aged working stiffs.

        Alcohol, weed, candy, coffee, my sedentary lifestyle... you name it, I'm in a balancing act over it.
