My good friend alcohol

You are the rock in my life. You don't waste away to tolerence. You straight up leave me fucked errytime we hook up.
Not like this weed shit. That shit just gets used to your system and failed to work after a few months.

BTW I just found vodka girls drinks that are less than 100 calories. WIN

 

I love the drink, but I've learned to respect it a bit better over the years.

 

Strait everclear is under 100 calories, too.

Well maybe, alcohol does carry a fair amount of energy. But it's more calories of drunk and less calories of bullshit.

 

Nice, you can continue your alcoholism while minimizing the attendant weight gain,
you go girl! :2thumbsup:

 

I mostly just drink fruity tequila goodness now... I rarely drink these days though... Last time I got wasted was September. Got black out drunk on whiskey and tallboys... Drove home.. was 30min late for work and then continued to puke for 2 1/5 hours at work until my jackass boss finally sent me home.. worse day ever and felt like a jackass... was promoted to supervisor only days earlier

I gotta go to court for a DUI the day after tomorrow. I cannot deliver pizza anymore because of it..

Fuck alcohol.

 

I don't know, sounds to me like you did yourself a favor.

 

no comment

 

I totally dropkicked my income in the face..

how is that a favor?

 

You can build a tolerance to alcohol too. You should have lived with some of my ex-room mates. Whole bottle of vodka and a 6 pack gone in a few hours by themselves and they still have the ability to drive the liquor store for more.

 

hours?

that's adorable

 

Yeah it was adorable when he would beat the shit out of his girlfriend and both of them would be so drunk they would ask me in the morning
how they got all these bruises.

 

yeah, ain't alcohol just peachy.


What I can't fathom is the two most destructive substances that people use/abuse, alcohol & tobacco, are fucking legal and their use is encouraged and promoted???

 

Somehow tolerance is not really an issue with me Except with hard liquor, then I just have a low tolerance I guess

 

hey, stop following me around! :sunny:

 

I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.

 

Because these fit nicely into the patriarchal and male dominated agenda put forth by modern society... Or at the very least they do not cause the user to challenge culturally laid down models of thought and behavior. The Man loves those drugs because you can make a shit-ton of money off taxing them, with zero loss to productivity and workforce. It's the same deal with caffeine... I mean shit, most people even have at least 2 scheduled "coffee breaks" a day. The only reason they encourage and promote such a thing is because caffeine amps up productivity and allows the mind to zoom in on a single menial task and direct all effort toward it. I mean, imagine what a different world we would be living in if instead of "coffee breaks" twice a day at work, we had "pot breaks" twice a day... Hell, half the people would go on break, light up, and think to themselves "omg what the hell am I doing?!" and would probably not even show back up to finish off the shift. This is because Cannabis is a drug which encourages boundary dissolution, the sacred feminine, the repression of the male-dominator agenda, and invokes a nagging suspicion that everything you've been told is wrong... This clearly is not a neat fit with the value system that is being pushed at the typical 9-5.


Alcohol, tobacco, caffeine, sugar, etc... There's a certain trend running through all these substances; none of them dissolve boundaries, they do not open one up to critical thinking but instead they reinforce culturally laid down patterns of behavior. Not to mention they make a shit-ton of money from the taxation of these drugs, because (as you may have noticed) the other theme running throughout these substances is that they are all addictive... This way they can reinforce the agenda they are pushing to society, while making a buck on the side... tis the American way

 

They do not stimulate your mind. Alcohol will get you "high" but you won't end up questioning things as much as you might with weed.

 

I know all that, and have said the same many times here.
I was being a bit facetious considering that "illegal" drugs are supposedly controlled because of the threat they pose to the "safety, health and welfare" of the public according to how/why drugs are scheduled.

In reality just about all drugs have been criminalized not because of the substance itself, but because of the subset of society who choose to utilize a particular substance's political or economic status/position.

prejudice against Chinese = opium declared illegal
prejudice against blacks= cocaine declared illegal
prejudice against Mexican + financial motivation (Hearst paper)= marijuana declared illegal
prejudice against "hippie" culture= LSD declared illegal


but back on topic, alcohol is just so destructive to living tissue with any degree of regular use, it just doesn't make sense to me.
I mean as little as one drink can adversely harm an unborn child AND having a father who drinks heavily also can lead to birth defects.

Women also suffer up to 30% more damage from alcohol than men because they lack a certain enzyme that helps to quickly break down alcohol, so drink for drink, women do more harm to themselves than men with drinking.

Real good stuff there, alcohol is.


and yes, I have done my share of imbibing the evil drink in my time as well.
Actually even had some rum & coke yesterday. First drink of alcohol I've had in about a year.
Just made me sleepy, blahh.
