Had a margarita+daquiri+pina colada party last night, played games with friends, chilled and talked about music. Fun night. :D

To answer your question: though there are personal reasons, many don't like being out of control or don't like the taste. I don't drink often because I'm a control freak. ;)

Bad experiences in the past. And I'm a control freak. Us straight edge fraternity members are more common then you would think =T.

i don't honestly know.

though my gf actually has an almost allergic reaction to alcohol. her face turns red extremely quickly and her skin gets very hot. my other two japanese friends have similar reactions, so it's possible that it's more common in asian populations.

Why do you have to have a stupid substance to have a good time? And why do you wanna do something that'll make you feel horrible in the morning?

And you won't even remember what you did, so what's the point?

1. Beer is bitter. You have to drown yourself several times before the bitterness disappears.

2. Alcohol smells and tastes bad. It is just bacteria waste afterall.

3. Is there a difference between, horse pee and beer? They're both made from the same stuff.

4. Getting wasted makes you feel horribly sick the next morning.

But, beyond that, I love to drink. Many fun nights with the right girls and lots of booze. Well, its what happens after drowning in the booze that makes the night fun, not the drinking itself.
