First time I drank I had: 2 bottles of Heineken, two shots each of vodka, whisky, rum, and absinth (the real stuff, not the pussy American stuff), and various swallows of other alcoholic beverages.
Noting happened. I didn't feel drunk at all. I was completely normal. I don't know if that is a lot to drink, or if it's not enough, but it sure as hell didn't do anything for me.
I was in Europe, and lots of my friends were getting wasted off of three vodka-redbulls. And these were the kids who got drunk all the time.
Alcohol and getting drunk just doesn't really appeal to me that much. Is there anyone else who is like this? Tonight, there are tons of New Year's parties going on. I will be sitting at home because they all will consist of getting wasted. It's not like I'm a total loser, my girlfriend wants me to go hang out but I'm just not that much of a partier. What's the point? Apparently hangovers are horrible, and you do stupid shit when you're drunk, so I don't see why people do it. I don't want to sound like a pussy, and be like "I don't drink because I know" but it doesn't appeal to me at all.
I was at this kid's house who is the classic nerd. Fat, long hair, pizza face. His parents were out of town so a bunch of us decided to play poker at his house. And he wanted to get drunk. Jesus, am I the only one left? Is there anyone out there who doesn't care about health problems with alcohol, and still just doesn't care to drink? Am I the only one left??

ALSO (yeah yeah, I'm obsessive, shut up and deal with it) this: "various swallows of other alcoholic beverages." makes you sound like the twelve year old kid who runs around drinking the dregs of everyone else's booze and thinks he's being unspeakably grown up.

I didn't mean that about the rabies.
Rabies is an awful thing and shouldn't happen to anyone.
Replace 'rabies' with 'syphilis'.

I have never drunk in my life and I have fun all the time. The key is to take advantage of drunk people.

One morning, after a wild party, I woke up in my bedroom, fully clothed, with EVERYTHING that I was wearing the nite before. (Pants, Belt, Shoes, Sox, etc), but my underwear were in the bathroom. I am really not sure how this happened, or how I got home. When I woke up, I didn't know where my car was.
I have done a lot of stupid things when I was drunk, however, I have done a lot of things when I was drunk that I would have never been able to do otherwise.
You have to take the good with the bad.
Most recently, I ended up getting with my boss-lady from work. I have crushed on her so badly since I got the job. She is so beautiful, and the most fun person to hang out with. We went to a club with a group of people, started drinking some shots, and BAM!, now I'm looking for a new job.

You can have fun without drinking, but going to a party and knocking back a few is a different kind of fun.
+ alot of ppl drink to lose their inhibitions, so they can be "free".

Being drunk can be fun. But people but WAAAAYY too much emphasis on getting "TOTALLY WASTED, DUDE! ALL RIGHT!! WOOO!! WOOO!!"
It's not that big a thing. People just have high expectations for being drunk because they think it makes them happy and wild and crazy -- which it does -- but also, a lot of drinkers just use the hooch as an excuse to be wild and crazy. Granted, it is a pretty good excuse. "Not my fault! I was drunk!" "What? I killed a hobo with a screwdriver? Meh, I was drunk." It's also kind of like a catalyst for a release. How many times have you heard someone tell you that they were going to get SOOOO hammered and have such a good time on this night or that night?
Also, I think it's glorified and sought after because it's so taboo in this country. Go to Europe, and eleven year olds are having glasses of wine with their meals. Sure, they get drunk over there, but it's not a big event for them like it is for us.
I bequeath my words of wisdom upon thee, to be enjoyed by all.
Because you all asked, I only get drunk on special occassions: birthdays, weddings, that sort of thing. I have a good time when I'm drunk, but I never get so fucked up that I don't know what I'm doing, which a lot of people like to do.
I'll cut this review short before it gets longer than your post.

Getting drunk isn't the best thing in the world, but it's always good to get wasted occasionally.
If you can't appreciate that, you are a loser.

The general idea is to drink enough to have fun, but not so much that you get wasted.
Then you're in a good position to point and laugh at the people who DID get wasted and are now doing some stupid shit they probably won't live down for the rest of their lives, like fellating a doorknob.

You were playing poker and someone getting drunk was a problem to you??
----------
That's my whole point, I don't see why people want to get drunk, if it's just drinking i don't care. I'm only 17, it's not like we are old adults talking about the times...
-------------------------
When i drink alot fast I become so drunk i think im sober if that makes sense to anyone.
----------
When you do this you can remember everything that happened? I remember counting the number of times my frind threw up. He had 6 shots of vodka. The final tally was 17 i think.

You must have an isnanely high tolerance. I think what actually happend is what i like to call the "false sobriety" effect. When i drink alot fast I become so drunk i think im sober if that makes sense to anyone.

this reminds me of the girl who sips a shot of wiskey and says "golly, i don't feel nuttin'." then she goes out to see if she can get drunk, drinks 15 beers and 20 shots of jack and loses her chasity to a mexican with really large hands.
i have a high beer tolerance. 1-10 i am fine...i may start to feel it after 6 but i am okey dokey.
when i hit 11-? i have broken a sliding glass door, given relationship advice to a drunk chick on my lap, ran around the bases at a ballpark while trying to hit beer cans with a frisbee, and vomitted...several times.
try a case and...see
