"Yes i would like to drink rotten water and beat my wife"
Statements drempt up by the utterly deranged
Simply do mexican black tar heroin ijstead, like my buddy julio 😎
The presumption that if you drink you automatically are an abuser is such a bullshit thing to say about someone.
Don't really give a shit what your experience has been, it's not mine and don't put it on me thanks.
I live in a country ran by fascists relying on a dieing biosphere on a planet hurtling through an infinite void. One day I will die and there will be nothing and that is the end. Still, I have to go to work.
Let me have a drink please jesus christ
Thats why me and julio do mexican black tar herpin outside tje schoolyard like that paul simon song
I can go to work hungover/buzzed. If I'm nodding out at the desk and stealing computers to keep up my heroin habit I don't think I'm keeping the job
Or just straight up dieing because there's fent in it randomly
Oje dose kf mexican black tar heroin will have you set the rrst of ypur life
That's being an introvert. An introvert is, as I imagine it, a person who cultivates then shares social bits.
I can't here you over the guitar I'm drunkenly playing very poorly
I mean, unsweetened iced tea also has a bitter flavor and is an acquired taste, just like beer.
I’d much rather drink a basic beer than a glass of unsweet iced tea
I'm a ride or die for Tejava unsweetened, but for real. Those tannins will smack ya
[looking at the gallon of unsweetened tea in my fridge] shut up shut up if my friends hear this they will never stop giving me shit for not liking beer.
Alcohol literally tastes bad to everyone because its toxic and our body alerts us that it's nasty, it's only by adding sugars and other flavors that it becomes bearable to drink, and even then whatever thing you're drinking would still taste better with the alcohol that it's masking removed. Anybody who says they drink alcohol because it tastes good is lying (to themselves). The reason to drink alcohol is because you like the effects of the drug (anestesia which dulls physical and emotional pain and anxiety, mild euphoria, etc). The taste is something you put up with to get those effects.
Excuse me I only beat my partner when she asks nicely
Seriously though I’ve never understood people who get angry and violent when they get drunk. I’m an “I love you guys you’re my best friends” drunk.
I'm like, starting to try to go straight edge after like a long period of alcoholism and ngl it's hard, I relapsed both last night and the night before
Hot take: anyone who's a violent piece if shit on alcohol is probably already a violent piece of shit. Being drunk just makes me less anxious and more able to be myself. If someone is hitting people while drunk, they want to do that all the time, they're just held back by social pressure. I talk about Mao and Stalin while drunk.
That's simply not how alcohol works. Sure it can have different effects on different people but it's an addictive drug that has many adverse effects including making people more easily upset or even delirious.
Yeah the few instances I've been drunk I get very moody and immediately start crying. I've never felt the lack of inhibitions other people talk about. I just get miserable.
The whole "who you are drunk is who you are really" has much merit. We're all people with filters.
Not that I condone being a violent piece of shit but that smacks much more of uncontrolled substance abuse to me than an inherant character flaw. If you're never violent without alcohol, the problem seems to be much more that you're addicted to alcohol.
Yeah filters are an inherent part of ones personality. So in my opinion anything that removes inhibition or filters is changing one's personality
Yeah. When sober or only a little tipsy, I'm the most trustworthy and secretive person. I'll never tell someone else's secrets, I don't reveal any of my own secrets. Never have. Hopefully never will, with regards to other's secrets. But when I used to drink and get drunk, it's like a switched flipped, and I became the biggest gossip ever. Spilling the tea and secrets, including my own. Luckily I've never managed to let anything big slip. I don't know how or why it happened, but it did in the past.
Whatever part of my personality that stops that from happening when sober is a big part of who I am, and it just gets removed by the change in brain chemistry while drunk or something.
Well, I don't believe something like being violent is an inherent character flaw; character flaws are learned/ responses to a person' life experiences. Character can be changed (though it's not easy).
I like booze, but for some people it is a very dangerous drug. Heck, it's probably not the best for me either, but some people's genetics are not suited for it and it can lead to disastrous consequences. If you come from a long line of alcoholics it's especially dangerous. I don't think the world should give up alcohol for good, but there needs to be a better culture around drinking and more places that people who don't drink can go. Not all of society should revolve around booze.
I know too many alcoholics both inside and outside my family, so I stay away from that shit.
I associate the use of alcohol with the sadness of America and capitalism. The advertising of it with sex and parties. The violence against SOs. The jockying with male aggression. Being lonely and drunk. Drowning the horror of your work. Pregaming and going out into the city to go drink more. I think it all betrays a lack of community, overarching project, and places to socialize. If you could just pull up to the community LAN party or the eternal giant-sized volleyball game, or go get shovels to go to the community hole digging/hole filling fields then you'd need less alcohol and alcohol locations.
Alcohol is a severe problem in Japan too for much of the same reasons. Everyone's overworked and alcohol acts as social glue.
TFW the community hole digging / hole filling field is now a Walmart
I‘ve heard from relatives that people in Belarus make detergent into homemade Alkohol lol cuz they can’t afford more vodka.
I used to drink a lot, but I haven't done it as much since I have a hard time hitting good drunk levels. I either don't have enough and don't feel much different, or have too much and need to vomit and take a nap. When I do get a good drunkage on, I either don't drink enough and fall into the former state or over shoot it and end up in the latter state.
Getting older sucks.
"Yesterday I got so angry I struck my wife. Then I realized my wife's been dead for years. Who the hell did I hit?"
I like how it makes me feel when I'm at a party.
But it's crazy that it's not considered a "hard drug", when it's clearly is.
