    I enjoy being drunk up until a certain point. normally I just get really drunk and pass out, but lately I've started to have a little self control so that I don't get so drunk that I pass out. Instead I get tipsy and then I'm awake for the comedown process.

    The comedown process really sucks. Being drunk is fun when you're so drunk you just dont care. Like earlier, I crossed the creek behind my backyard and climbed a treehouse that some random person is building. I took my new puppy up with me and we had a merry old time hanging out in that tree house. Then I came back inside and instead of going to sleep I started doing stuff...reading, posting on here. Now I'm still drunk, but I am not so drunk that everything is still really enjoyable, does that make sense? After you start to come down from alcohol enough, it really starts to suck. You gain awareness back but you're still drunk, so it just becomes this really uncomfortable feeling...does anyone else relate?

    I don't drink that often but I think I'm going to stop drinking period. it really sucks to be honest. I've known a few people that have completely destroyed their lives from alcohol; I should hate alcohol because of it but sometime after I turned 21 I really developed a taste for it. I think I'm going to quit it for good. I should have never started. It destroys lives and its really not very fun.

    that is all.

    Okay, thats not all......Another thing about being drunk but not drunk enough to pass out...I cannot sleep while alcohol is pumping through my veins. its impossible. I'll probably be up all night. This really sucks.

    Yah alcohol does kind of suck on the comedown, I usually still have slight motor control impairment a hazy head and a general malaise.

    yup I don't drink anymore either for that very reason. And if I do drink its on a very rare occasion. I get so tired of feeling buzzed after only a little while, I feel like I'm wasting the alcohol.

    And coming down does suck so bad...you feel tired but can't sleep and the headaches...ughh!

    Alcohol doesn't suck. It has the following excellent uses:
    -As a fuel
    -Cleaning
    -Feedstock
    -Antiseptic
    -Treatment for methanol poisoning
    -Solvent
    -Numerous chemical reactions


    "Alcohol. It's not shit" :2thumbsup:

    A few points;

    -If being drunk sucks, you're not doing it right

    -The whole point is to pass out so as to avoid the comedown

    -If you do decide to quit, don't become one of those really arrogant anti-alcohol people (same goes for arrogant anti-smokers)

    -In the words of Axl Rose, "When you're high, you never ever want to come down."

    -Pot is way better

    -Are you going to finish that?

    -LSD is made from ergot, a fungus that grows on rye

    -Penicillin, made from a fungus

    -Blue cheese

    just saying for what purpose? to convince me that alcohol isn't shit? :confused:

    i'm not trying to totally disregard the entire species and subspecies of fungi moulds and yeasts ..... i'm saying that alcohol, a byproduct of the decaying process in vegetative matter, and humans then ingesting it, is a shit way to get a buzz

    Just stating that just because something comes from a mold or fungus doesn't make it bad. I thought that was your point.

    If I fall asleep drunk, I wake up hungover no matter what...which is why when I actually do drink, I wait until I've sobered up before going to bed.

    And yes, pot is way better :2thumbsup:

    I love being drunk. Alcohol is the only drug I do on a regular basis.

    You're perfectly right, she should be out there being successful and getting ahead in life, earning big $$$ and buying designer furniture, being a massive prick and generally dragging everyone down like the rest of us. None of this 'enjoying life' shit.

    Kudos! I hope I'm hanging out in tree forts with puppies when I'm that age. Or I could get a job at McDonald's and hope I get promoted to assistant big mac assembler by the time I'm 26.

    My problem is I have no sense of moderation. If there's no limit to the supply of alcohol I'll drink until I pass out. I'll tank through a fifth of vodka in one day and then be hungover as shit the next day, or worse hungover in jail and covered in vomit. Yuck! I /really/ need to slow the fuck down. Most of my friends rage like this so I can't say I've lost any friends because of this behavior, but I've certainly been kicked out of many establishments =P
