Drinking to get Drunk?

I haven't read the other posts, too many, but has anyone complained about the lack of one option - drinking because they enjoy the taste.?

I love beer and scotch. If i feel like a nice beverage i'll drink.

 

I did the binge drinking thing for too long (ergo, the username). I got so sick of the hangovers that I now cut myself off at 3 drinks most times. Plus I'm older.

 

I used to drink sooooo much when I was a teenager. Now I drink everyday, but not to get totally smashed, just to get a lil feeling after a hard working day!

 

I drink to get drunk. Not totally shit faced and puking or anything though.

 

Drinking to get drunk does help you drown your sorrows. Even if you are bored or pissed off, it can make you feel better. Also, its great for confidence.

Whenever I am drunk, I can get quite chatty, and I feel good.

 

I just drink socially.... I don't have the time or energy to recover from hangovers, nor the money to buy all those drinks...

 

what the hell is the point of drinking anyways? cant people just drink something good for them? next time you want something to drink why drink alcohol? theres so much better stuff... it fucks up ur system, being drunk isnt exactly fun... having a hangover sure as hell isnt, and in the long run it ruins ur body. next time you out with friends, just order milk or something. i dont see the point in drinking to get drunk either... iv been drunk once and it was kinda amusing, but it really wasnt worth it. here, alcohol is expensive... so why buy something so expensive just so u can make yourself look like an idiot for a night? just save your money...

 

lying in a field.. i did read the whole thread and was a bit surprized and was gonna say something. some people DO like the taste of a couple GOOD beers with food, friends, fuck even alone or wine... why do you think people do wine tasting? cause alcohol tastes good to some people that apprieciatte good alcoholic drinks.

freedom for all.... to people that can control their drinking its not only healthy to have one or two glasses of wine a day but its also healthy to have one or two dark beers a day.

 

when i m in frustraion i drink

 

yah i guess its ok if you haev a reason to drink... but i know a lot of kids that just go out to get drunk, and i think thats really stupid. i know too many people who drink just because they think it looks cool, and because everyone else does it. i guess a few drinks are fine... but doing it to get drunk is fucking stupid/.

 

I like to savour my booze, like sipping chilled champaign or cream liquer (I hope I spelt them right), I don't just put anything into my mouth to get smashed. But if alcohol didn't mess with my state, I'd probably drink something else. I usuallly have it when I'm with my friends, I love how it makes me feel so alive and free of inhibitions, though I never get drunk. I never have actually... Gotta try it some day :b

 

mmmm drinking.....i like to have a beer or two with company on a hot summers day its not to common for me to go over board, if i want to loose my mind ll smoke some reefer.. It is fun to get drunk and get it out of your system once in a while. I'm a bit over due on drunkeness and since my friend can drink again were buy a shit load of beers for the weekend : D

 

i drink occasinally

 

I'm gonna quote the great Mojo Nixon."friends,why do we drink?we drink to ease the fuckin pain of bein alive,thats why!"

 

Word.

 

where from in md lucky?I was born & raised in frederick

 

Twas a great weekend Zepp ^_^ gotta like medication that unables you to drink

 

I don't always drink to get drunk. Maybe when I was 15, but not now. Sometimes a drink of vodka or gin or rum or whisky or _____ is nice. I drink alot of wine too, especially when I cook.

 

I take my message back. I'm fucked up right now. Lots of wine earlier, vodka, beer, weed and benzos. Ohhhhhhh.

 

I see drunken nakedness in your future...
