The Unhappy Thread

[Redd]

I've been drinking a lot more than I usually do and strangely life has been "better" (though I realize that's BS)

Moderation is sooo important. I watch my Dad finish 10-12 beers a day. I don't want to be like that nor want to spend the money on a habit like that.

White Mage it's ok I'll agree with you and say that I generally really dislike/think lower of people that get drunk often/drink regularly.

That's so..... ignorant though. You know nothing of the person, and yet you think poorly of them? tsk tsk. Thought you guys were better than that.

 

[ndayday]

Yeah I realize that. It's just a thing, I know it's wrong to think like that. I hear someone say "I got drunk" and my opinion of them completely changes.

It's probably because all my experiences with drunk people suck or scare me.

 

[Jon Farron]

It's not that I think lowly of them... it's just a question of "why?" that comes into my mind. Why did you turn to alcohol? It doesn't get rid of the problem, it just puts it on hold, and alcoholism itself can become another problem on top of that.

Yeah drinking at a party every once in a while is fine, but when it becomes a regular thing... I just don't see why people want to drink. I also think part of me is afraid to drink because alcoholism seems to run in the family (Grandfather, Uncle and Aunt are sober alcoholics), and I always seem to be susceptible to things that have an addictive nature.

I don't think you realize drinking =/= always mean your drowning your emotions.

I actually went out for a drink last night. I asked for a sex on the beach and they didn't put anything in it other than Cranberry, I called them out on it and he told me to try and if I don't like it I don't have to buy it. After I start the other bartender comes up to me and says $8. I told her I'm not paying for it, we called the guy over and they took the drink from me. I asked for an Apple Martini instead and he said he couldn't help me, he just wanted me out of there I guess. On the bright side I found 5$ in the bar.

So I know I'm going to be able to take that job and I'm finally becoming ok with that, I feel bad for still jerking these guys around though. I keep telling them I'll get it on some longshot hope that things work out back home and I actually do get my drivers license on time. They've been so nice to me, it's gonna suck when I tell them finally I can't take it. And I wish my dad would just confirm that he hasn't gotten it yet.

Well my father won't get back to me until tonight, or early tomorrow life he usually does. So I'll just call my contractor and tell him I can't take the job. It sucks, but I need to be a man and just do the right thing here.

 

[tera twin]

A drink every now and then is good for your liver, actually. I also disagree about taste; I can think of plenty of tasty drinks.

WM, you won't understand unless you've drunk enough to truly feel the effects. If done in moderation without heavy amounts, it's enjoyable.

Also if you're around people who get threating about you not drinking you're with the wrong kind of people. I sometimes choose not to drink with friends due to driving or any number of reasons, but no one has been threatening to me because of it.

Hey. No discussion of alcohol.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Drinking takes away my anxiety around woman. A little too much

 

[Oneupsalesman]

I'd love to start the day over.

 

[Vixen]

So were, you ever going to substantiate your claim that Alcohol is somehow good for you? Burden of proof is on you.

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

If it makes you feel good, it's obvious good for you!

TELL THEM YOU CAN'T DRIVE BUT YOU ARE STILL VERY INTERESTED IN THE JOB AND ARE WILLING TO DO ANYTHING TO KEEP THE POSITION DESPITE THE CIRCUMSTANCES YOU AUTISTIC PIECE OF ****.

I thought I had a presentation next week...

But it's tomorrow.

That's a terrible idea, the job requires driving so if I can't they're not hiring me. Fortunately I can drive, but my predicament prohibits that. Anyways I'm about to tell my contractor that I can be there for work tomorrow without a problem, but I wouldn't have my license and I wouldn't be able to drive until the weekend. This is assuming that my dad does pick up my license today like he said he would.

[Jon Farron]

Froggy.... I'm sure you can still drive without your licence for a bit. Just don't do anything stupid to get you pulled over. O.o

Worst advice I've ever seen in this thread

Google must be malfunctioning for you?

If you really care enough to make a bunch of posts about it, look it up. You're on the internet anyway.

Cool advice, I'm sure that the popo will agree if he does get pulled over.

...

This thread sometimes.

 

[Vixen]

because burden of proof. sure, i can look it up myself, but i'd rather were just prove it.

 

[Jon Farron]

Seriously, what are the chances of getting pulled over? He IS already legally licensed to drive.

 

[Lythium]

Why? This isn't the Debate Hall.

You never know what can happen.

Also, it doesn't matter if you're licensed to drive, if you don't have your license.

 

[Lore]

I said that I don't feel like finding one, which strongly implies that I really don't care.

Froggy, good luck getting your license and all that. Hopefully you get the job in the end.

White Mage, how old are you, and do you have your license?

 

[Holder of the Heel]

You could type it in google and come up with "proof" faster than it would have taken you to ask for it multiple times.

 

[Falconv1.0]

Lythium I wish I was capable of being as nice as you sometimes.

This thread is grand.

Also Bio**** Infinite was kinda dumb.

Yet you made a claim, and now you don't care to back it up. This screams false/unsubstantiated to me.

 

[Lore]

Or I just. Don't. Care. I really don't, and I have no reason to.

 

[Vixen]

Then don't make a claim.

Mizuki how does it feel being that guy right now?

Does it feel like being a jabroni?

 

[Froggy]

Sorry, but I'm just not willing to risk driving without a license yet. Also I'm not sure it would make a difference since the company needs my license and insurance card on file.

Well unfortunately things didn't pull through. My dad says he's at the office trying to expedite the process now, but the contractor keeps calling me. I'm just going to have to call him now and tell him I still don't have it. The last time I spoke to him I told him I wasn't hopeful I'd get my license in time, as much as I want the job I really think they should give up on me and higher a different candidate. I wouldn't feel so bad about the whole thing. Oh well, gotta be an adult and face the situation again.

You missed the point. Were made a claim ans d when asked to substantiate, refused.

[Holder of the Heel]

I'm sorry, I thought the point was expressing interest in understanding whether there were health benefits to drinking alcohol or not, not ******* around about substantiation. I was mistaken, because expressing interest in understanding this topic would have rendered substantiation pointless in less than ten seconds.

 

[Lore]

I didn't refuse. I just didn't ****ing care, and just because you want me to do something doesn't mean that I automatically have to do it.

 

[Vixen]

But you made a claim. :3
