I just have to say this thread was exactly what I needed this afternoon. Been a shitty couple days and got to enjoy some unexpected comic relief. Thanks all, but mostly LOF, our catalyst.

I aim to please. I know those random personal stories tend to get people going over here.

Replying to Jonas with the words “hard on” will get you in trouble. Fair warning.

Yeah, I thought of that after I posted.

 

[Slinger 48]

Have you considered less day drinking?

Nope, it's just lemon flavoured water. I haven't had a drink drink going on ten years now.

So if Keefe quit, you wouldnt like him?

 

[Preston]

I'd quit drinking but it's 1 of 2 hobbies I have.

He's welcome to go coach for a competitor.

The second day of my first 2 day hang over, for all intents and purposes, was the day I quit. Shit just wasn't fun anymore after that.

10+ years ago now, easy. I'll sip on something good once in a while to be social, but that's about the extent these days.

That post just made me want to drink.

I barely drank during the pandemic, and it badly screwed with my previously epic alcohol tolerance. Now I only occasionally drink and a couple of tequilas get me buzzed, which I guess is better, cheaper, and healthier.

Wine kills me though. I had like 3 glasses one night last week and wasn’t feeling great till midday the next day. It’s not even really a hangover, I think the sugar is too much. I don’t even care to drink wine that much, so from now on, 1 or 1.5 will be my max. And only with food.

This is about where I land now as well. I enjoy a nice glass of wine with a meal but once in a while. I’ll have a cocktail when I’m out with friends but more interested in having a gummy and no headache or lack of sleep from alcohol anymore.

I was having a couple of great days at work but catching up on this thread really took the wind out of my sails

--- nobody is drinking

I still have a collection of very good tequila that I dip into a few times a year to sip on an ounce or two, and yeah a pinot noir or something if I take the time to make a good steak. Could probably count it one one hand though.

With that said, I still enjoy fucking up a few mojitos or anything tropical when I'm close to a beach. I expect that to pick up when I make the move eventually. But even then it's usually 2-3 tops. Can't remember the last time I got drunk tbh. A few years easy.

Zeke and Preston call bullshit on that one.

 

[CH1]

Zeke is depressed and Preston is handicapped

they're not drinking for fun

 

[Preston]

Try not drinking after your 4 year old goes down to sleep. It's impossible. Basic science.

the IF is pretty ominous.

you ain't helping the mood, bud

 

[Bleedsblue&white]

I do the driving so I end up the sober guy getting tired of the drunks repeating themselves.

Now I don't drink because I feel like shit the next day and I smoke a lot of weed.
