Not to be that guy, but social drinking isn’t about getting trashed every night and waking up at 1PM. Nor it’s about getting drunk so much where you don’t remember the previous night. To put into a perspective, I have a few drinks almost every night, but also go hiking or snowboarding at 6AM. Maybe it’s a PNW kinda thing, but I can guarantee I’m not an exception to the rule.
The social drinking is about grabbing a drink or two, either solo or friends, to let yourself loose a bit. It’s about temporarily changing your attitude towards your environment, maybe cracking a couple of silly jokes. Maybe sitting at a beach or a park, watching sunset while listening to your surroundings.
Moderation is the key when it comes to mind-altering substances. Obviously it’s easier to say, but if super-majority of your experiences are positive, it is ok to suffer from some mild bad experiences (agonizing hangovers a couple of times a year).
- Mystery-Machine 3y agoWhy this doesn't work while drinking tea?
- andybak 3y agoBecause tea is a stimulant and diuretic. A night out on tea would involve everyone getting a bit jittery and going to the toilet a lot.
- Mystery-Machine 3y agoSo is alcohol.
- Aerbil313 3y agoOne can drink in moderation indeed. One nation can’t. When drinks are allowed, you get zillions of divorces, car crashes, mortal figths, murders, and much more every year. Sorry, I didn’t mention that my religion prohibits the use of any and all mind altering substances. So it’s not possible for me to drink in moderation either. I’m glad for this restriction I choose to obey. I’d rather have me control me at all times rather than some altered version of myself.
