drinking at home
hey all,
a mate of mine is always bagging me and what not because i enjoy a bourbon or beer at home by myself.
i enjoy the taste and relaxing effects of a drink at night. is this so weird.
it would be good to know your opinions on the subject.
now could a poll be set up so that theres the options of drinking at home and not drinking unless socially?
cheers, garth.

I never drink more then 2 drinks by myself.. Any drink I have is purely for enjoyment..
Drinking at home alone (other than in moderation) is often a sign of alcoholism. Getting ****ed by yourself ain't cool..

but is it really getting ****ed by yourself if you are chatting on msn etc? if relationships can be formed online, and bills can be paid and a multitude of other things, why wouldnt having a few drinks with online buddies be considered normal?
i think its time the guide to alcoholism was updated.
have only done it once or twice, and would be bored ****less doing it infront of the telly, but on here would be a bit of fun i think... long as there were a few on and i wasnt the only one on a bender.

yeh ocasionaly drining at home by yourself is fine. when the footys on and you want 2 get into the game a little more or you just come home from work and you need to relax a little, or u just purely like the taste i dont see nething wrong with it.

A few months ago i got given a bottle of red from a mate, one afternoon i decided i would watch a series of black books to fill some time. Thought i might as well open a bottle of red and have a glass or two with my old man. Dad had half a glass and started to do some work, i ended up drinking the whole bottle, was a good drop too, without realising it until i stood up to have dinner with the family. I had never done it before, and i ahvnt done it since, i pefer a social drink. Or a drink while im workingon my car, i cant see a problem with a drink at home alone.

It's different.. Being ****ed doesn't just impact what you say, but how you say it, your body language and a multitude of other factors. It relaxes your inhibitions, makes you more sociable etc.
Call me old fashioned, but if people get ****ed so they can have a chat to their mates on msn, I believe there's a problem..

I have come on this place ****ed before. Some of my 4am posts are just after I get home from a big night, it really doesn't do it for me that much..
Also typing properly isn't as easy when you're ****ed. Webcam I kinda understand, but not really..
Just not my thing..
