...just out of interest, how do you know what cow's piss tastes like? :D

Alcohol doesn't really have a taste as such, it depends more on the drink. Try white wine (given you're allowed to). It's quite sweet.
 
I can't stand beer, it's just way too bitter for me. (the only beer I've been able to actually drink, was mixed with sprite anyway)
I much prefer things like Strawberry or Mango daiquiris. They are much smoother and actually have a nice taste.
However I do have to say that I don't drink alcohol all that often. My personal policy is no alcohol on days or the day before I have to work.
 
Once I'm allowed to drink alcohol, I won't, which comes as a surprise to some of my friends. XD;

Just too much that can go wrong / makes me sick. <<; I'll stick to ice tea or smoothies for celebration. :D

Good to hear ;)

I've only drank beer and wine, like two-three times (very moderately), and didn't like it. That and I see no point...

Coworkers always come to work boasting about getting drunk and other stuff... I can understand to some extent about social drinking, but I don't see the point of wanting to get drunk (which seems to be a large amount of people). I figure though that some of these people just want to "drink their sorrows away". Reality anotherwords...

While that does sound harsh and accusatory why is it that something with alcoholic content is drunk, instead of water etc? Part of that is also the setting (you don't see bars that serve only water now eh?).

Not to mention some people are addicted to it or waste their money on it.

One can save a lot of money by not drinking and smoking.[/nf]

Very true.

I'll also never smoke, it took one experience of seeing this ol' fellow's body getting wrecked and shaken scared every time he coughed from a life of smoking. :( Now, I don't blame ol' folks that smoked, they didn't have the warnings we have today, but young people? I kinda just facepalm. (No offense to any of you that smoke, but I find that life decision costly, risky, and definitely not worth it - I'd rather blow bubbles)[/nf]
 
[nf]I'd only smoke if there was a weapon to my head. I tried it once in my life and found one thing about it: I can't breathe. I physically cannot breathe if I try to smoke or am in the immediate vicinity of those who are smoking.[/nf]

I'm totally against smoking, that's for sure, but drinking can be done in moderation and not do any harm. I'm not suggesting for a second that some people don't abuse it, but having a little bit to drink can give you a warm fuzzy feeling and make you relax. I've never had more than a glass or two.

It's funny how the drinking ages vary between countries. Australia is 18.

Australia is more liberal in it's sociality of drinking though (heck even kids are allowed in the pubs) XD (I've been there). Needless to say, I suppose it depends a bit on the country. In Canada, it varies by province, where I live it is also 18.

I think one of the bigger things is that Australia has had a large drinking culture. Go to sydney and look at the heritage sites, most of them are pubs.

True dat

Not to mention they're all descendants of criminals and they had to drain their sorrow somehow >.>

But Aussies are cool :D
 
Unfortunately, drinking is a problem here. >.> Most people who drink are underage and things happen. My brother's girlfriend has had a lot of people who have died due to being drunk at the wheel.

...And right now, half my family has hangovers and they just woke up and it's like... 4pm.. lol :|

Oh yes, I know of moderation being a good thing. Studies, as I recall, found significant heath benefits of those who "moderately" had red wine. The thing for me is, it's so easy to slip up. Make a mistake and get consumed by alcoholic problems. (which is stronger than many of the banned substances we've got locked up) Next thing you know, they're driving.

But for me, I'm just going to avoid it entirely. No desire when I can drink damn good green tea that also gives me a relaxed feeling and plenty (if not, more) health benefits.
 
Yay! I am not the only one who will never drink alcohol. It is just plain nasty! Beer, Wine, Sherry...etc. Totally gross! I am in the legal age, well way over the legal age. It is 21 in the US. But I will never drink that stuff. It is water and tea for me. Alcohol is poison.
 
I don't think people follow the drinking rules anyways. They probably drink at home and when they get to the drinking age, it's more easier for them to drink at a pub or something.

My friends keep saying they're going to make me try some alcohol one day.. Like the fruity ones, though I'd rather not touch any alcohol at all.
 
Yeah a few of my friends tried to make me drink, but I told them no. I wasn't going to do it. There was no way. I stood my ground. My life is more important than getting drunk and hungover.
