> perhaps you drink to get drunk
I like that your response to a comment that boils down to “Just buy what you like” is to (in so many words) accuse the GP of being a nihilist alcoholic. Please do go on about the “objectively terrible beverage” that you keep a case of in your living room though

- friend_and_foe 3y agoFundamentally it's true. You buy it because it contains alcohol no? If you're not after the drug inside, you'll just buy juice or soda. Hammered or buzzed, you wouldn't buy it if not for it's mind altering effect. I know vodka is different than whiskey. They even contain different volatiles, which changes the buzz considerably, and the wood esters and things in whiskey are bad for you and give you hangovers.
