Every day until Summer Shandys go away for this year

[bomma_man]

cnt see

[bdizzle]

There's been times I've drunk 7 days straight. Usually it's just on the weekends.

[Ventilaator]

Twice per year , on average.

[Dosia]

Once a week. Usually once a month during June-Aug. Have to keep my liver healthy for the binge drinking that will occur during tailgates in September.

[f@luS]

Easily 3 times per week
How often do i get bit drunk ? 1/week max
How often am i really drunk ? 2-3 per year


Whats matter is how much i need. Now i can easily take 2 dozen of shots (tequila yummy , vodka whatever but whiskey)) and i will just be slightly drunk. ( or more like stupidly smiling)

I remember a decade ago. Needed 3 shots to start to be Woohoo

#thx my Work

That might actually be unhealthy for your liver, with some constant drinking your liver is able to become more accustomed with getting hit with the poison, it's kind of like running, you don't save your legs to run a marathon, you have to harden them through months of training before you binge your legs and muscles.

[Lizard with a ladder]

This thread is torture. I want to drink tonight but I've committed to no drinking for about 6 months. I plan on getting really dedicated to lifting weights and drinking doesn't doesn't mix with fitness. Even if it's just one day a week. Alcohol brings protein synthesis to a grinding halt.

This is going to be one boring Saturday night with no alcohol. :(

[Shadow of the BEAST]

whenever i dont work the day after.

normally friday and saturday.

[bomma_man]

But seriously, Friday and or Saturday during semester, Wednesday Friday Saturday+ during holidays. Special occasions often end in a three or four day bender, although I've been keeping a lid on it recently for cost/girlfriend reasons. I'm going on a trip to Europe in a month so it will probably escalate again. I just need a decent night's sleep too much to be as big of a piss head as some of my friends.

[Pizza Luigi]

Pretty much every day. A glass of wine or two. Every odd weekend I go out with some friends and drink a bit more then, nothing special...

[Eggman]

How often do you guys smoke da ganja?

[Witchfinder General]

Drink: 3-4 times a year.
Drugs: never.

[blame space]

How often do you guys smoke da ganja?

What? I don't smoke pot. I've never smoked pot in my entire life.

Pot? How does one "smoke" a pot? I've never smoked pot. I don't smoke marijuana. Right now. In front of you. Like this. I've never done that in my life. Never.

[Sword Familiar]

Hardly ever. Once a month, maybe? I used to drink too much at parties when I was younger, but I feel I've come to a point where I know my limits. Wouldn't mind going out for a drink more often, but as it stands now it's not an alternative.

[entrement]

Whenever I want to.

[cuevas, PhD.]

It's not a question of how often but rather how early in the day does one begin?

[ChanHuk]

I haven't had a drink in 6 fucking days, worst 6 days ever.

[GoldenEye 007]

Once a week pretty much.

Used to be like 3-4 times a week.

[Relix]

wat. Youre one of those people :x

Fucking sarcasm never works well through forums :p

[daycru]

I always have two or three beers when I hang with my best friend, that's probably twice a week. I'll go a party once a month or so, usually get fairly drunk then.

[POWERSPHERE]

Well, your definition of fun anyway.

I think enjoying a cold beer is much more fun than filming drunk people for creepy kicks.

[Kreunt]

random beers throughout the week whenever i feel like drinking beer. often get wasted socially on weekends. have never gotten drunk alone.

[cuevas, PhD.]

I've never done something but I know I don't like it!

[Kentpaul]

How often do you guys smoke da ganja?

I smoke a joint every day (when im not at work or have finished) about 4 o'clock and ride the high for while then become sober again and I smoke another joint about 11pm to watch my shows and prepare for bed.

No, that's just a bad myth.

[kittens]

I drink about once every two or three months. I don't really see the point in it, honestly. I'd rather spend my money on other things.

How often do you guys smoke da ganja?

Once or twice a month. I've never bought it, though. I've just got friends who are willing to share, heh.

[Jipan]

I'll say about once every 1-2 months; typically on social occasions. The last time I got drunk was at the February NYC GAF Meet up; that was 3 months ago. However, I rarely like to drink to get drunk (maybe 3-4 times a year).

I typically decide on the amount of drinks that I'm going to have before I go out or if I go out go out without a drinking plan, I drink a minimum of 1-2 beers. I do enjoy the occasional beer with food (especially pizza) if there's beer in the fridge.

[Secks4Food]

Up until a couple weeks ago it was 4-5 nights a week easy, but now that it's nice out and I'm trying to get in better shape and do more physical activities, it's like once every two weeks.

[SMT]

Never, after having found out that I'm allergic to the yeast in alcohol. My situation is terrible what the fuck, yeah? I must sit through others passing judgment when it comes to matters like this, further deepening my neurosis. I might as well ask the bartender for a coke and claim it is mixed with Finlandia or Polar-Ice.

On the brighter side, I have more money for video-games. lol

[PuppetSlave]

No, that's just a bad myth. http://www.leangains.com/2010/07/tru...nd-muscle.html

Oh thank you! Thank you, thank you! I love drinking a cold beer with my recovery meal after going to the gym and have had a bad conscience about this since I thought it hindered my progress at the gym.

[BobsRevenge]

No, that's just a bad myth. http://www.leangains.com/2010/07/tru...nd-muscle.html

My life is suddenly and significantly improved knowing this information.

[bro1]

2-3 beers a day on average. More on the weekend. Love me some micro brew!

[Glass Joe]

It doesn't take much effort to post in a GAF thread. I really don't understand how the prevailing opinion can be that people who don't drink shouldn't be allowed to respond. I absolutely understand it's annoying when people post in threads like this just to be a dick, saying drinking is stupid/wrong/etc. But this thread asks a specific question in the title to which "I don't" should be a valid answer. We're on a message board, and it's here for discussion. That involves all viewpoints ideally. It should be taken as read that anyone posting here has a general interest in discussion, not just about things that interest them but others as well. You can't get into psychoanalyzing just why people are posting in a thread or aren't. We have threads pretty frequently that ask "GAF, how often do you play video games anymore?" and many people respond with "I don't" or even "Never really did." Nobody gives those people shit about it, and they shouldn't.

I'll admit that I came off as too crass, participating by saying "none" is fine. Sorry 'bout that if you were offended.

No, that's just a bad myth. http://www.leangains.com/2010/07/tru...nd-muscle.html

Interesting stuff. Constantly binging is bad but there's a lot of evidence that moderation can have health benefits.

[SeanR1221]

Friday and Saturday night, socially.

Every person Ive met who refuses to drink has been completely lame and not fun to be around.

[KillGore]

I've never done something but I know I don't like it!

Yeah, I'm sure you wouldn't like having sex with a horse, but I guess you should try it first.

[Dysun]

I drink only to get a little drunk, and that's very rare. Maybe 5-6 times a year

[FlawlessCowboy]

Never have. Never will.

[highluxury]

As often as possible. Usually have a whiskey bottle in reserve.

Speaking of which Im drinking some beer now, up on my 4th. listening to some deep lounge jazz and Im planning on going out later tonight.

EDIT: I sip whiskey at times when Im working. Benefits of working in the fashion industry.

[mt1200]

Once every month or so

[SeanR1221]

Hey der straw man!

Here's an example. I'm new in my neighborhood. Yesterday a guy came over with two dogfish heads to chat as I cleaned off my grill. How lame would I be to say, "oh ho ho! All beers are gross!"

[KillGore]

This seems to be the case with almost everyone who started drinking alcohol. People feel the need to fit in and be accepted so they just drink away until it actually taste great (beer at least). I do understand your point though, but I would've just sait "oh, I'm sorry but I don't drink alcohol, thank you though!". Like I said in a previous post, I don't think drinking is wrong (unless you take it too far), but personally I don't like it since I'm a pussy drinker, can't even finish half a bottle of Smirnoff. I don't get drunk, I just get sleepy and I get tired of the taste after a little while. Like I said, pussy drinker.

What bothers me is his motto though, especially when most (not all) people start drinking because they feel the need to fit in. (in other words, they feel insecure)

I always though beer tasted great, ever since I had a sip of my parent's ones when I was a kid. I never met someone who drinks to "fit-in", they do it because they enjoy it. Nothing to do with "being cool" and other misconception anti/non-drinkers seem to have.

I know people who love the taste of pig intestine filled with blood. To each their own of course :P

[Leshita]

Not very often, only if I am with other people for some special occasion, I prefer drinking milk and eating my vitamins (milk part is true). :P
I just have never seen the lure of alcohol, most do not taste good to me whereas my friends keep telling me there is this 'taste' that you have to acquire to. My theory has always been that the marketing of alcohol has made people like its 'taste' because they want the often mature, hip, and sexualized associations that comes with alcohol. I must say that I do not like any alcohol unless it is sweet like Baileys (wut a pussy).
That being said, if I am drinking something I do not like then I better get hammered because I do not see the point in drinking otherwise. ;P

[Ezalc]

Don't like drinking alcohol at all. Tried drinking a beer a few weeks ago with a cousin of mine, it was bitter as fuck and tasted terrible, I even forced myself to finish the small bottle to see if I could get drunk just off of that or if the terrible taste would somehow change for the better. It didn't. He bought more than one kind so I tried a few of the others they all tasted pretty much the same, like ass, except that one had a more toasted flavor not that it helped any.

I also tried wine yesterday, it was pretty eh, I didn't really hate it but it didn't exactly taste good. Only the aftertaste was ok but that was about it. Don't care for champagne either, too bitter.

Oh I tried whiskey and energetic once it didn't taste good either. I wasn't raised drinking alcohol, my parents drink very sparingly and my sister is the one who drinks more in my immediate family but even then she only does it sometimes as a social thing and has never gotten drunk. Considering that I have more than a few relatives who ruined their lives thanks to becoming alcoholics and the fact that if I do go out with friends I'm always going to be driving and I hate drunk drivers, I don't want either thing to end up happening to me.

It's more like we are social beings by nature and it can be a very social expierence. A lot of behavior people do is socially appropriate. I'd easily say being a total non drinker by choice is a socially inappropriate behavior...if I was forced to classify it.

[Alrus]

Oh I can understand people not liking regular pils, because some of them are pretty bad but outright saying that all beers are bad is a bit stupid.

[AngryMoth]

This year I've only drunk heavily maybe once every 2 weeks (British student here so that makes me practically teetotal in my social group). After exams next week though I have 5 completely free weeks before the end of term so I should be able to bring that average down considerably.
