i cant believe this thread has gone like this. respect to the kids that choose it for their own reasons and not being preachy about it.
but seriously....
i love to drink. im not going to get into my drinking habits but i dont have a problem. sometimes i drink tons, all the time, in the morning, night, when im skiing, when im out and about, and other times i dont drink at all for weeks (sometime months) at a time.
today for example, at mt. snow gaper day, i have been drinking since 11 am. and here i am, 26 or so drinks later?
anyhow, i await my judgement at the hands of my younger peers.
Have they not cracked down over there yet?
I remember I always used to get wasted at bars in England when I was like 14, and now I'm 20 and I go there and get carded. I figured the world is just going a little crazy.
the funny thing to me with some of these response is people are saying they prefer to be high.
i must be old school. i really dont LOVE being high. i do love being buzzed.
i love to drink just enough that i'm real drunk but can still think and remember everything the next morning. On the other hand i hate drinking any more and i hate throwing up so much, ruins a good night and a good morning for me
personaly, i think being drunk to the point where you are past tipsy but not feeling sick at all is the greatest feeling ever. im not an alcoholic, haha, id like to make that clear, and i love being in my normal state of mind and having fun more than anything (saying that my normal state of mind is pretty wierd...). im 17, and i used to smoke (weed) alot more than i do now, isnt reeaaally my thing, do it once in a while tho. ive also done shrooms twice, fun but again, once in a while. i really have ZERO ambition to do anything else, i dont know why, but whenever im offered ecstacy, acid or anything else (doesnt happen too much, dont have druggie friends or anything) i just say no, not cause im scared or anything, just dont want to. alcohol has its ups and downs, hangovers suck, but somtimes, waking up and seeing some horrid scene without anyone one being hurt is HILARIOUS.
i encourage anyone who hasnt drank before to grab several beers and try it out.
ONLY IF YOUR OF AGE!!! [
Here it's 18. there is quite an underage drinking culture where i'm from. Quite a few parents, (not mine) but a lot supply their kids with a six pack of premixed drinks to take to parties from 15. Most people around start drinking around 16 even though the legal age is 18. There is always someone in the group who has an older sibling or friend that will buy for them. I drink but only on occasion when I feel like. I've thrown up twice and that's not something i'm going to do anywhere soon I'm scalling back how much I drink because i've done some pretty stupid things. It's always okay to drink just know your limits and don't drink to much.
ive never been absolutely wasted but i did used to drink and i made the choice to just stay mellow. my dad dropped out of college and was literally a bum with his friends, he was forced to join the army so he could buy himself food. he's been sober for almost twenty years now. i dont want to have my life like that.
