I don't drink, not interested in it and didn't care for what little I've tasted of it. I don't really care for the idea of getting myself drunk either.
 
I've had 3 beers in the last 3 years. I guess this qualifies me as a non-drinker. When I'm drinking, I love to drink. I guess I just don't know my limits, so it's easier not to drink. However, I have many other hobbies that I find more challenging and enjoyable than I would find drinking at the current moment.
 
How about a sometimes/occasionally, Rarely options?
That would be a modified YES, tho, I suppose,

so I'll go back and vote yes..... 🙂
I guess PICS might be appropriate 😀 , as well......




 
Last night I enjoyed a nice Avo dipped in some 1984 port, and let me tell you there isn't much of a way to lead an epicurean existance without enjoying the finer things in life now and then. And people that don't drink because of religious conviction, I can see not getting too hammered, but if you're a Christian Jesus drank wine. His first miracle involved creating wine. 🙂

It seems like most people who don't drink have some reason for it: problems in the past, religious convictions, etc.
I don't drink, but I don't do it for any particular reason. It's liek collecting stamps or something. I have no particular aversion to collecting stamps, it jsut doesn't interest me, so I don't do it. Same with drinking.
Anyway, I just wanted to see how many people don't drink, for whatever reason.


You sound like me. No reason other than I have seen what it does to people, young and old.

That and any money I spend of drugs of any kind would come from my car fund, My drug is my car 😉

 
I don't drink alchohol mainly because I don't like the taste.

Well actually, I don't mind drinking Bailey's Irish Cream, but I haven't drank one of those in a very long time.

oh and beer tastes nasty!

A) Good beer tastes good
B) Bailey's is way too thick and sweet, it tastes too much like 35% cream to me.
C) There are engineering students that don't enjoy beer?!?!?!?! :Q
 
i do, but not often. It costs too much(even though i'm only 145lbs i can drink a LOT) my grandfather was an alcoholic(so i have to watch myself) although it has improved my grades. i know that may seem backwards, but i usually get burned out about half way through the semester, stop doing my homework and just become generally apathetic(which is what happened last semester) but i started drinking every few weekends this semester and my grades are all great, and i'm still doing all of my homework every night. I figure it just let me relieve stress and it let me relax, and besides the cost factor, i never get hungover, and i never did stupid things(my friends say i'm exactly the same drunk as i am sober) so i have no reason not to really.

oh, beer is nasty 😛 i tend to start on rum and coke(or shots of rum) and then after a bit move to vodka or whiskey.
 
I have never ever drinked. Not even a drop. Not one. No ifs, ands or buts about it. I will never drink either. I will die and have never drinked beer, wine, etc!! Wooo Hooo!!! I don't smoke or take drugs either!
