I drink socially, and sometimes knock one or two out. Sometimes I have a taste for a nice Bud Light. I hated it at first, but after a couple times of drinking beer, it kind of grew on me.

I resent that remark.

I'm a trustworthy person.

I just decided years ago that the way booze made me feel the next morning just wasn't worth it.

I DID used to drink, but NEVER had a drinking problem.

I only drink to feel cool around my friends. Otherwise, that stuff tastes nasty and I wouldn't touch it.

i have maybe one or two drinks a month.

The first three are because I refuse to do them, the last one is because I don't like VD.

Whats VD?

I drink very little, less than once a month and never too much. After university I didn't see much point in it.

PanzerIV, interesting name. Would that be a model F1? G? H? J?

Since turning 21 three years ago I have ordered 2 drinks out, and have had very little at home.

So I drink very little, if at all.

Uh...see..maybe that was your problem. If it made you feel bad the next morning, you obviously had to much. I don't see why some say "it just isnt my thing". Do they think that drinking means getting drunk? Having a few beers ISNT a thing, you don't get drunk, and no one is harmed, not even yourself. What is the big deal?

99% of beer I've tried gives me headaches.

Plus I don't like the way it tastes. (well except for a few REAL dark beers I've tried.)

Once again, it just isn't worth it to me.

Why do something just to be doing it, unless I get something out of it that's better that what I get from NOT doing it?
