Here goes nothing.
Yeah, it's weird I've just never liked drinking to get bombed, I think my metabolism is too fast--I can't get drunk unless I drink a ton, and then it kills my stomach.
This is a confessional?
Shit, I thought it was a pub.
As far as confessional threads go, I have no real stories about alcohol, since I never drink to get drunk. But I think the role of alcohol in our entire heirarchy of substances is interesting, especially since alcohol withdrawal is by far more lethal than any other type, causing massive seizures and neurological trauma.
Not if you are a true friend.I knew a girl in grad school who was writing a PhD on Woody Allen and the act of confessing... I wanted to say "Fuck that old shit, try livejournals, messageboards, and bars," but you're supposed to be respectful among others' important life choices, right?
No, I wasn't a true friend, I didn't know her very well and from what I heard she was very insecure about going for the PhD... I saved my most brutal commentary for my cohort and then only the masochist with mommy issues enjoyed it, driving me to this message board during long days in front of the computer writing my thesis. Now I'm playing the loquacious drunk...Not if you are a true friend.
I've 20 years of stories about alcohol [mind you, I never drink to get drunk either, at least not since my 20s]. And I don't 'do' drugs, never. But I think I know why - I'm too fucking intenseDrives the commonsensical-normal insane ...

I think ideally I like this too... but in practice, I am too poor to stick to top shelf (as are my friends), and drinking crap basically means you're wasting your time unless you get sufficiently drunk. It's weird, I used to think I had no tolerance, getting wasted in 6 drinks or less, but then I realized it's because I always smoked weed when I drank. I am usually pathetically aware of my wasted-ness -- I loathe hangovers -- and rarely REALLY let go... probably for the best, I've never passed out on trains or gotten thrown into jail, quite accomplished am I.
I would drink far less if not for its properties as social lubricant....
oh yeah, and i know plenty of guys (my boyfriend included) who hate big tits
No.
If I like someone, and think they're cool, have known em for a while (like Swears) I'd fawn over a picture of their baby.
Actually the sex/drugs threads were interesting when they got onto stuff about memory and sensation. Also funny. Booze just isn't that amusing.
