Being a heavyweight (drinker) rocks!

You can drink as much as your friends, but you won't get drunk while they will get drunk 🙂


I never realized how much fun it is to be around drunk people while you're only buzzed 😀


Go sleep it off

Ummmm...Okay 😕
 
Being a heavyweight, I have to disagree with you. I'd rather drink half as much and spend half the money! You don't wanna know how many beers i can go through in a night :Q expensive 🙁 but fun 🙂
 
Why don't you tell ATOT why you are such a drinker, Marty? Let them all know. There is a reason. Oh, yes, definitely a reason.

I'll tell them for you, Marty. I'll help you get the problem off your chest...

You see guys, Marty here had a favorite place. It was called "Joe's Manly Strip Barn". He went there all the time, bought drinks, paid the...um...employees, etc., but one day his favorite "Employee Of the Month", shall we say, got sick and died. He had already developed a drinking problem, but this just escalated his dirty secret...then, to pay for his drinking, he was forced to work at the "Barn"...which, while he loved the "work", made him kind of off in the head, you know? All his dogs ain't barkin'.

Ah, well...just let him be what he is, and humor him...
 
well, alcohol is expensive, but you gotta remember that drunkeness ( we shall name the function D(x,y) ) is a product of both tme (x) and amount of alcohol consumed(x). I can get drunk if I wish, by drinking 10 shots one after the other, which only costs $10 (a 375ml vodka).

And I rarely ever drink outside. Best place to drink = friend's place 😀



But they'll laugh when your liver fails and they're fine

HA! I had my first drink when I was 7, my liver will fail if I don't drink! 😉

Once again, I get tangled up in Mauly's web of homoerotic fantasies. He doesn't want to hear me when I tell him I'm a hetero......oh well.
Someone needs to tell the guy: NO MEANS NO!

And while we're on the subject of drinking, I need to share something serious with you guys.

Friends don't let friends drink and derive!

This is very important. You should always have a designated deriver. You're friend Joe may think he can handle approximating the root of a function using Newton's method, but he's just asking for trouble. Its all fun and games until someone sketches an odd graph instead of an even graph! :Q

I don't see the big deal people make of drinking alot. Maybe reality for some is better viewed through some pretty foggy glasses, which sounds kinda sad.

Are you sour because Queen Amadala is a lesbo, Anakin is gay and Star Wars is a joke? 😛

Getting drunk is not fun, getting OTHER people drunk, is very much fun. They start to act in ways they would NEVER do while sober. Its fun, especially when you have a camera handy 🙂

Sounds like it to me!

And LordMaul isn't the greatest name either. I think Lucas comes up with all his character names when he eats his alphabits cereal in the morning...random patterns in his bowl...
Lord Maul, Dooku, Jango, what the hell is next? 😛

Do you want me to go into the problems with LOTR?

:Q

Old, gay, bearded wizards; hairy, gay midgets; Dime-Store rings with powers...

Blah blah blah...
 
Do you want me to go into the problems with LOTR?
Yeah LOTR is a real joke...

-Most popular book of the 20th century
-Tolkien = father of modern fantasy
-Movie grosses over $800million worldwide, with 2 more to come!)
-13 oscar nominations

What a joke of a story!!! POS!!!

Yeah, too bad the alcohol alone in one drink has 120-140 calories. Plus anything but hard liquor has carbohydrate calories too. Being a heavyweight drinker means you're gonna have a heavyweight a$$!

Missed this before..

I didn't call LOTR a joke. I asked if you wanted me to list problems.

As for that..

Star Wars:
- Most popular sci-fi movie(s) since the last 20 years
- Has one of the highest grossing movies EVER in its series
- Millions of fans worldwide
- THE foundation for sci fi movies as we know them today
- The reason for tons of spinoffs, books, imitations, etc.,. etc.

Yeah, it has it's problems (IE, Episode 1), but I still say LOTR isn't anymore "perfect".

Of course, it's all in the eye of the beholder, so neither of us is technically right. I never could get into wizards and elves and the like; I was most of a sci-fi kind of guy.

I still haven't taken back what I said a while ago: I'll own all the DVDs for both LOTR and Star Wars eventually...
