Bought this 6-pack on sale thanksgiving, thinking it was plain Root Beer which I like drinking once in a while.
Didn't notice the word HARD and know it has about 5% alcohol content. 5 bottles still unopened inside the ref.
Not a beer/alcohol drinker at all.


Friend of mine had 3 of those last night, he said they were pretty good, i'm not a huge fan of rootbeer, or beer.

I hardly ever drink. Might have an alcoholic drink when I go to a restaurant every few months, but that's about it.

Depends on the week. Sometimes none. Sometimes I'll kill a bottle of vodka in a week. I'd say I average 1 or 2 bottles of wine a week.

I'm surprised by all the non-drinkers in a drinking thread?

Seriously?

Start a thread about cigarette smoking and see how many non-smokers jump in.

Start a thread about how much fatty red meat everyone eats and watch the holistic organic vegans come crawling out of the woodwork.

That's funny.

Gah vegans! My woman just turned vegan out of the blue. Now she gets mad since I still eat meat. The horror!

Depends on my mood and the weather. Usually I'll drink a 750ml bottle of Jack Daniels in a couple months. Between that time a six pack of Angry Orchard or Smirnoff peach Bellini every now and then.

BTW, Where's Mayne? LMAO!

Never really drink but this last weekend I was in Las Vegas and it got away from me. Before said weekend it had been almost 2 years since I had any. I discovered Fireball while in Vegas. Im still hurting 3 days later.

Drink probably 1-2 drinks a night after work. I like to unwind after work with a cocktail or a beer. Sometimes wine during dinner. Usually when I am relaxing, I like a drink. Dont drink as per any achedule, just when the mood is right. Never drink when I have a busy schedule. When on vacation, we start with mimosas or bloody marys for breakfast and drink all day.

This post is making me sound like some sort of lush but in reality I drink only when I relax.

Pretty much. If you get to the point where you are drinking on days that you work the next day, it's a bit much.

We have a guy like that at work. But the company sees alcoholism as a mental issue, and so they can't fire him because "It's not his fault". Half the time he shows up drunk or does not show up at all.

holy shit you're naive.

a few drinks on work nights here and there is nothing.

a six pack or pint of spirits or more every night, yeah, that's very different.

en it depends on how much you are drinking having a beer with dinner every day and a cpl while watching TV is not a bit much.

if you are getting shitfaced every day then yes its not good

I know of a few functioning alcoholics that can put away 6-12 beers a night and still wake up early for the next day's work. D:

Even if you are not getting shitfaced and can function, that doesnt mean it is healthy. There no way I could drink 10 beers and go to work the next morning! Id rather be doing somethign more constructive than sitting around and drinking half a case of beer nightly.

Some people sit around and play video games everyday, some people sit around and watch reality shows everyday. We all can do something more constructive.

Once per month, maybe even 2 months depending on special occasions. You don't get to pull and squat 500lbs+ by drinking.
