Surprisingly because alchohol lessens your behavioural inhibitions.

Has this thread degenerated into math stuff again?

CP, I told you, cut it out.  It's not funny any more.

I haven't had time to skim over this thread so forgive me if I sound a bit redundant.

Is alcohol itself bad?  No.  You can drink in moderation and still remain in control of yourself.  Its the folks that abuse it that give it a bad reputation.  Personally, I won't touch the stuff unless I absolutely have to.  I've seen too many people killed by drunks, and I don't want to do anything stupid like getting plastered and taking out an entire family.  I don't think I can really handle that kind of responsibility yet.

Well, basically there are four types of drunkness (at least in general): There's "go around singing happy songs and dancing" (that's me) drunkness, then there's the "start cussing and get generally pissed off" drunkness, then there's the "go straight to bed" drunkness (my dad) and the "get drunk and start beating my girlfriend with sharp objects" drunkness (my g/f's father).

That's ,of course, IMHO.

Forgive me for sounding naive.

've read the first few posts in the thread, so I'm not posting completely blind here.

Anyway, my personal view of alcohol and illicit drugs is the following:  I shall endevour not to imbibe, inject or otherwise place into my body any chemical substance that alters my perception of the world around me.  I'm screwed-up enough as it is, I don't need any help.

I also cannot understand the mindset that takes pleasure in doing so.  Sorry.:blah:

Besides Beer smells like year-old yak piss.
So as through a glass, and darkly

Where I fought in many guises,
Many names, but always me.

There are only 10 types of people in the world , those that understand binary and those that don't.

I am NOT going to ask where in the world have you smelled year-old yak piss.

Those monks in South Central Tibet can cook up some weird @#$.  

Seriously though, it was only a figure of speech used to indicate that in my opinion beer doesn't smell very appetizing.

You realize that sex causes your body to start producing natural hormones and the like, right?  While it doesn't get you 'high' it's a definate alteration of mood.

Plus it's a good cure for headaches. :D
