I'm 19 years old and all of my friends drink or smoke casually barring a few close ones. I've been offered many times but I've never smoked anything or drank anything alcoholic. I'm cool with that.

Drinking is not at all right. There is even a proverb for it. I heard it long back. It was something like
"First the man takes the drink"

"Then the drink takes the man"


There was one more line in the middle. I don't remember it. I can never think of drinking nor would.

Drinking beer is a serious matter. Drinking too much beer and you'll become alcoholic.
Thanks for stating the blatantly obvious just now :D

To all you who say "drinking is terrible, and you should never do it," I disagree. You try going you entire life without drinking any alcohol at all. Everyone bound to do it at some point in their life. I'm not encouraging the use of alcohol, but there's nothing wrong with having a few every so often. As long as it's done in moderation, there's nothing wrong with it, as with most things.

If your religious belief forbids the use of alcohol, that's totally cool. Just a little heads up; when you're out with your friends, and they're knocking down a few, telling them how horrible it is for them...probably won't go over too well...

I drink at weekends socially with my friends. Maybe get through a litre of sambuka because i drink it straight. Sometimes i like it because a nice glass of sambuka and man utds game is a very good combination.

However going out i can never last 2 hours, annoys me. I'd rather save my money thank you very much.

I hardly drink though tbh. Got a rather nice addiction atm which is my girlfriend.

that sucks man, it really sucks that alcohol can ruin people's lives....

I personally think that like everything else, if you do it in moderation it's fine. As long as you remain in control of yourself and how much you drink it think it's ok. Children shouldn't be allowed to drink because their livers are n't fully developed yet. I drink on occasion, just some single malt scotch aged 18 years, or if i'm feeling surly (usually at a social function) i drink good ol' fashioned Tennesee Whiskey (JD). Honestly the taste of cheap alcohol is pretty harsh, which is why i prefer the more exspensive stuff, but that causes me to drink less. I think the Irish got it right when they made scotch and their whiskey.

using it as a digestive, to go along with a meal, it's perfectly fine, other than that, I see no use for drinking it, those drinks don't taste very good, in higher concentrations it's toxic and it's a depressant, not a stimulant, so I don't see much of a point in it

I dont really see anything wrong with drinking, also long as you dont get hooked on to some kind of alcoholic beverage. Me, I will only drink like wine or a wine cooler. Now, smoking on the other hand........................

What do I think about drinking? Well... if you're the type of person that doesn't act like an idiot while drunk, you're alright. However, if you're drinking compulsively... it might be time to turn to a more positive activity. Heck, even talking to people helps. I used to be depressed all the time, but then I found my groups of friends (I'm not the person to have only one), and focusing on the stupid stuff that got me depressed. I also used to take medicine for it, but I got tired of it... which didn't help at all... probably why I'm so moody all the time. Anyways, alcohol isn't the way to go for depression, it only hurts more afterwards.

Agreed, smoking is for Emo's. It is a slow suicide
Smoking is not just for emos... especially if it's not cigs. I mean I smoke hookah socially on occasion, and just so I'm not off topic here, there is nothing better than smoking a great cigar and sipping on a glass of single malt scotch. It really takes the edge off... on the few occasions I've actually been able to do that.

But i'm not promoting smoking, it's bad if you get addicted to cigs, but like everything else, moderation is key.
