I'm interested in knowing the drinking habits of forum members. Personally I'm starting to avoid drinking, and I was never really into it very much anyways. I have tried a bit of beer, wine and liquor here and there.
I like to drink, but I don't like to get drunk. I drink alcohol a couple of times a week, but do not overindulge. Even when I drink too much, my mind fights off the effects. It may be harder to focus, but I still strain to maintain total control. The feeling of having to strain so hard to hold onto my normal consciousness is uncomfortable and tiring.
I know exactly what you mean. In my case however, the struggle to maintain control is the only fun part of being drunk or tipsy. Honestly I don't understand what is nice about being drunk apart from that.
That says it all for me, except for the first sentence. I accidentally did it as an infant, and I've had an aversion to drinking alcohol ever since. I have tried multiple times, and I can never drink more than a tiny sip.
Using alcohol in food is a different story...I love marinades, beef burgundy, and a good marsala.
I drink here and there. Mostly wine during dinners and at parties with friends. When I go out, I drink too, but not too much. I like to remember what I did the night before when I wake up. :tongue: And next to that, I'm crazy enough without the booze. I wouldn't want my friends to run away when I'm lifting the bottle.
If I understand teetotal to be abstaining, then just put rarely drink. It would be nice to make 27 options for the poll but then how would the results look!
It's not that I rarely drink. That would skew the results and be wrong. I used to drink occasionally socially, maybe 5 or 7 guinness on a friday night. Or at home, quarter of a bottle of Tequila or Bushmills...
I drink here and there, I never get really drunk as I don't care for the sensation. Just enough to have a laugh and be sociable for a few hours and i'm done, I prefer whisky. I will never drink vodka red bull again, spinning round in a room for hours with caffeine shakes is not good :laughing:
I avoid drinking mostly because it's not that fun. I'll pop a Guinness with friends every once in a while, but I don't drink often. I have gotten drunk all of once, and I was not impressed with the experience. I didn't get hungover, and I didn't do anything stupid. I was just really, really bored. I find it's a lot easier for me to have fun when I'm sober.
Whenever I got to shows, I usually drink a can or two. I prefer shots of the hard stuff. I also don't drink caffine at all when I drink. Makes you think you can drink more than you can. But I'd rather get stoned than drunk.
I'm a happy, friendly, extroverted drunk. I don't drink very often, and when I do it's not all that much. Just enough to make me feel zero social inhibition (ok and a buzz).
In England the pub is the Cafe. So I drink alcohol and every couple of weeks I get so enthused I drink too much. Rought cider in pints at 6% alcohol and three pints makes you merry and four pints very merry and five pints is drunk. I have a low tolerance.
A glass of Extroversion, dulled thinking (rather than increased Feeling?), badly impaired Intuition, Perception distortion.
The Drunk mood I am in equates to being "pissed orf right now and for about two years.
Before that I used to drink one and half bottles of wine after work very night just to burn off the adrenalin and get to sleep.
I appreciate a good glass of wine, especially with a nice meal out, and I like a bottle of good import beer. Something like Tuborg or Czechvar, or an English Ale. It tastes good and helps create a nice, relaxed atmosphere. I keep my intake to one or two drinks. The object isn't to get drunk or even buzzed, but to appreciate something nice. :mellow:
I did get drunk a few times when I was back in University. It was part of being young and stupid. It wasn't right for me, and I don't do that anymore.
Alcohol tastes yicky I might drink a bit when I go to college just to try it, but I don't want to get drunk. I wouldn't want to forget anything that happens because I hate forgetting. I also have a feeling I'm a lightweight :crazy:
I rarely drink alcohol - probably 4 or 5 times per annum, and I've never been drunk (nor have I ever been really tipsy, either).
