Former MemberFormer Member Posts: 1,876,323 The Mix Honorary Guru
A thread for discussion of opinions of alcohol intoxication;

*Amplification of primal emotion

*Suppression of logical reason

*At low levels, can be nice

*At high levels... I HATE

Your opinions please

    I think it is all too easy to blame your actions of intoxication, yes you may well do stupid things while drunk/high but then its still your fault because you got yourself in that state in the first place.

    As with many drugs it does simplify reason and thinking, therefore making complex choices quite impossible. So things are good or bad, which is far from a good thing in many cases.

    Personally I find that alcohol has a highly sedative effect on me so I like the taste more than actually the experience. Its rare that I drink more than a few units in one sitting.

    I drank and smoked a lot when I was a teenager, I guess I kind of got it out of my system then. I havent been totally drunk more than half a dozen times in the last few years.

    It's the same with any drug, it can have good and bad sides to it.

    Personally i like drink, nothing quite beats it, especially getting drunk then pop a few pills, it seems to hit you alot more, i don't know why, the science end of it probably dosen't make sense but it's what you feel that matters.

    People out on the town drinking starting fights, well that's just another end of drinking and not everyone is like that, so there's nothing we can do about it, there's always going to be someone who gets clean drunk and starts a fight with a random stranger, but well what can you do?

    Alcohol is like any other drug really, people who have used too much arent fun to be around.

    Same as cannabis smokers, cocaine users....etc.

    The problem is that unlike many other drugs it is far more acceptable for people to use too much. If for example you went out to a club and did so many pills you were sick fell over and blacked out you would be looked down on by most people.

    I dont like being around heavy drinkers same as I dont like being around really stonned people or people who are too wacked on pills.

    I always knew you were a classy lad. Theres nothing like knowing that you have to get a woman drunk before they will sleep with you to make you feel like a real man.

    Yep, drunkenness, you feel much more attractive, but strangely sluring your words, stumbling around and acting like an arse dont turn women on. Its a mystery.
