....for a while at least. I seem to have gotten into a rut with social drinking. I'll go to the pub with my mates after work, have dinner there and a couple of pints, this adds up to about 10 quid, about two or three times a week. Then, Friday and Saturday nights are spent getting completely hammered on vodka and various cocktail pitchers, these two nights cost about seventy quid between them. So I'm spending nearly a hundred quid a week on the sauce. (Living at home and working full time has it's advantages...) I haven't drank since Saturday (yeah, not long I know,) and I'm already feeling better. I'm thinking of laying off the booze 'til my birthday sep 3rd, then I can move out again, and cut down the drinking to one night a week. Anyone in a similar situation? |

i just finished another Guinness, and nope, though i can see your point there. Perhaps i should too, when i have to. |

i want to start drinking more again |

without smoking actually but that doesn't seem to be an option |

Yeah, I often smoke whilst drinking, it makes the hangover twice as bad. It's all such a shitty way of behaving, a really crap and over-glamourised side of western life. I don't even really get to go to decent club nights anymore because "the drinks are too expensive" according to my pisshead mates. So we end up going to shitty student/cheese nights with cheap booze, and I end up getting pissed 'cause it's all so depressing. |

i'm finishing a 3rd beer cause i'm celebrating getting a job....but i can understand you. about a week or so ago i drank way too much , was dying the other day and promised myself not to be as stupid in the future - it was too hot to drink too much. sometimes a week off-booze seems very healthy. |

oyea smoking is bad i don't know why i do it, i don't like it that much i do it because im like 'fuck, who cares' the extra hangover however should be a limiter however, maybe smoke less. |

I never had any serious problem with drinking, but but almost all of my mates enjoy getting drunk once in a while (or often). Personally I hate the feeling of being stoned. But it doesn't change the fact that it's our national sport. Isn't it, Obi? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it depends. stoned vs drunk - i think the latter is better , in the long run. i haven't tried shit stoned plus dead drunk* yet, so i'm not an expert. our national sport is getting dead drunk, going to a disco, getting in a car full of chicks, killing everyone. *or shit drunk and dead stoned ? |

I'm proud of you for quitting. Pop Vibes is more important. P.S. Need another submission? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sure, but I only want to use one per member. That gives it a bit more diversity. Anyway, it's nothing to be proud of, it was easy. I feel stupid for not sorting this out earlier. The £400 pounds I save this month will be reward enough. :£ |

What if, it's guitar, and it was done with me and a friend. (Not a member). |

|

If you have a car then drive everywhere, give your mates lifts etc. Much easier to not drink that way. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
In fact, I should have submitted this one first. |
||||||||
|
|

i don't drink to often but when i drink i drink waaay to much. almost always. it's all or nothing. i'm norwegian of course. |
||||||||

As long as it's not too "rock". |

I havn't had a drink for 12 and a half years......... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i go to pubs a lot but I only continue the drinking to excess when it feels worth it cause otherwise you end spending 30-40 quid on a shit night. And being the driver occasionally is good way to not drink. |
||||||||
|
|

i workin a pub so drinking is way of life for me. usual night is beers and then more beers and pringles back at a mates house. i need to sort it out. right now i'm pretty wasted. drinking is expensive & unhealthy. |

getting stoned would always be my choice, its so much nicer than getting drunk. NO HANGOVER. But I do *heart* the drink alot. |

Quitting the booze.... fool. |

beer sucks punk |

Whilst I am duty bound to traipse this frightful mortal plane, I can't see booze, one of the few perks of Earthly existance, being removed from the equation for the forseeable future. |
||||||||

|
|
ahh tuesdays blues.. boy did i feel that this week. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i might quit for a while too. i did earlier this year and went to the gym and ate well and its amazing how fit you feel after say two weeks. i was waking up and zing ta daa i wanted to do stuff straight away. |
||||||||

boozy yeah. buying booze from the liquor shop is a lot cheaper. sneak it into the pub. my 'mates' and i usually party at someone's flat then head off to town around midnight. we get stoned too so usually it's a mixture of both. alcohol and thc work well together (for some people, others get what is known as 'greenies') - they seem to strike a lovely a balance. i'm more often just stoned than just drunk. getting drunk makes me want to smoke (ganja). so smoking is inevitable. doing it in excess makes you slow. after a few drinks and copious joints/bongs communication slows and all that is left are unintelligible grunts shouts and manic laughter. good times. i strike a good balance between being fucked and sober. money is not really an issue. alcohol is cheap(ish) and weed is cheaper. |

Still on the wagon. Notice how I've been posting this weekend. Stayed in last night, watched all the "Kids in the Hall videos on YouTube and listened to the first four Prince albums. Made myself a nice big plate of chicken, brown rice and runner beans with a dash of soy sauce and coarse black pepper. The ingreidents cost me three quid, a night out at least thirty. This is gonna be easier than I thought. |

Drinking is getting boring for me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i have a friend who will literally die if he quits drinking same with speedranch of making orange things fame |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've decided to be somewhat dry - definately cut it down to one night a week. be responsible and you'll find it works out a little better. money-wise and addiction wise. its fun to go out with friends now and then. they all drink, sometimes makes it difficult :/ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
is drinking 2 beers per day OK? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
