How drunk are your holidays?

[SmoothieX]

I'll have a beer or two from time to time. No wine, no hard stuff. I've got elevated lipids and liver counts, so it's an unhealthy decision to get sloppified.

Made my way through our company Xmas lunch with a stiff glass of ginger ale followed by a rocking cup of peppermint tea with dessert.

I don't really drink, maybe a couple of times a year. I probably get tipsy then but not roaring drink. Alcohol doesn't really hold much allure for me, but I do like a couple of bottles of bubbly on my birthday when my husband takes me out.

 

[RoJoHen]

Is it? Like I said, I don't really understand the appeal.

I always know when I'm drunk. And there are different levels of drunk, too. A few beers certainly isn't enough to do anything to me, though.

Possible you've never actually been drunk?

 

[Lindley]

Certainly possible. Likely even.

 

[TrekNut87]

Not very. I'll have 2-3 beers, maybe some rum, but that's it. I don't really need to be drunk to enjoy myself around the holidays.

Mine are not very drunk. No one in my immediate family is a big drinker, save my dad who is an alcoholic, so as a family unit we have an uncomfortable attitude towards alcohol during the holidays. We usually have some wine and hot buttered rum. I like drinking, but only in moderation and generally once every three months or so.

 

[RoJoHen]

Yeah, for as drunk as I get with my friends, my family events are incredibly sober. However, I feel like this will slowly change over the next few years.

I'm an addictive fuck so I just get drunk on life.

 

[Robert Maxwell]

Both my parents are alcoholics so I keep that in mind when drinking. I can count on one hand the number of times I've been drunk in my life. I think I'm up to... 3? 4?

I think it would quickly lose its appeal if I got drunk regularly. I'm also picky about what I drink. So it goes.

 

[Ward Fowler]

I enjoy a drink or two but no more during the holidays than any other time.

 

[Yeoman Randi]

I stopped drinking a few years back and have no interest to even have one drink. I don't like the way alcohol makes me feel, although i do love the taste of beer, so i miss that. But even after one beer i feel like shit, so no, i won't be drinking.
