Personally, I see drinking as being a generally positive thing in moderation, and there's really no need to lecture someone over having drank only half a bottle of vodka in the past 2 and a half months. Obviously if you overdo it, it can be extremely bad for you (and drinking that half bottle in a single night is obviously a lot worse than doing so over a longer period of time, even if the quantities are the same), but in moderation the health risks are relatively small for most people, and there are even a few benefits to offset that a bit. And a lot of good alcohol tastes very, very nice, which for me is the most important thing.

Although I doubt the kind of cheap vodka I can imagine Dhruv drinking would fall into that category.

Then again, I'm a committee member of my university's real ale society. So I would say all that.

Whenever Dhruv has posted on IRC about drinking he's seemed very pleased about necking vodka straight from a bottle in extreme amounts. I hardly call that a healthy attitude to drinking.

Frequently drinking to excess can certainly be destructive. I know a few people who don't drink, or very very rarely do, but it's more a matter of health reasons or personal preference, rather than a particular committment to being Straight Edge. My dad, for one. I don't think I've ever seen him take a drink in his life, but he wouldn't know the term Straight Edge. Of course, he makes up for not drinking by smoking and by drinking more coffee than any single human being should consume.

Personally, I love the vast variety of alcoholic drinks, and although I drink frequently, I very rarely drink with the intention of getting shitfaced. If I had to guess, I'd say that I get drunk less than 1 time out of 10 when I consume alcohol. Above all else, though, I consider myself to be a beer fan.

Sorry people if that last comment of mine offended you.
I'm not trying to judge anybody.
Who am i to judge,everyone deserve to live their life the way want.
It's just me who thinks I'm straight edge, but i am not.
I still drink tea but now I'm going to leave it from this moment.

That was foolishness of me to post something like that.
Sorry again.

megido-rev.M · « **Reply #14873 on:** October 08, 2012, 11:20:49 PM »

There, there.

Dark Prodigy · « **Reply #14874 on:** October 08, 2012, 11:30:59 PM »

Oh come on,
It's just the tea that I've not been able to leave.

megido-rev.M · « **Reply #14875 on:** October 08, 2012, 11:34:21 PM »

What's this fuss about tea again?

Dark Prodigy · « **Reply #14876 on:** October 08, 2012, 11:45:14 PM »

You know to be a truly straight edge means,
No caffeine, on top of other drinking, smoking and other drugs etc.

megido-rev.M · « **Reply #14877 on:** October 08, 2012, 11:48:53 PM »

Cafe and wine in general seem OK to me.

Bob2004 · « **Reply #14878 on:** October 08, 2012, 11:54:32 PM »

Did I totally misread that, or did we just inspire you to quit tea? 0_o

megido-rev.M · « **Reply #14879 on:** October 08, 2012, 11:55:51 PM »

Why would anyone quit tea o.O?
