Casual Drinking....?

My friend got all upset when i told her sometimes i have a beer after work. She said it was unhealthy and all this other stuff.... And i was all like Nowai!

Anyway, is it at all normal to have A beer after a crappy day? I dunno, maybe twice a week? I dont think of getting drunk, just to drink 1 beer to relax (Though as im a lightweight 1 beer gets me a little tipsy.. i recover eventually!). Either that or a mug of Dr Pepper and Ameretto. Mmmm.

and in the mornings!tofu-lion91

No, it's not bad at all.

About a year ago I went to a counselor to see if I was an alcoholic due to the frequency and amount I consumed. He assured me, after a brief psychological test, that I was not. But compared to you I am a raging alky.

That doesn't seem bad. Now if you drank in excess a few nights a week, that would be a problem. However, just having 1 beer after work 1 or 2 days a week isn't bad.hokies1313

It's normal here in Denmark to have an after-work-beer with your pals on Fridays, maybe actually get a little drunk. Especially carpenters and the likes do that. I personally can't see anything wrong in having a beer after a bad day, hell I'd do it myself if I had a job and drank beer :P

Dr. Pepper and Armeretto? sounds like you can start up a car engine with that concoction. what's the name of that drink, lava?

anyway, she is prolly worrying about you turning into a lush. i dont think a beer after a crappy day at work is bad.... aslong as you are not one of those types that get all hostile when drinking.

Yah i dont think its a problem myself, but i think she meant it was unhealthy in the sense that... its like the first step to becoming an alcoholic or something. She thinks its mentally unhealthy... not really physically.Witchsight

Having one beer twice a week isn't bad. Good that you can drink casually.

I don't like the taste of beer, but usually during weekends I may put some rum to my coffee. I'm a light-weight too, so that's why only at weekends :D

mmmm Amaretto. Anyway, I think teh doctors have said that a beer a day keeps something away. heart attacks or somethingJandurin

Yesssss. I love that stuff. It's the only alcohol I would drink. Otherwise, I usually stick to trees.

Can drinhking Pernod really prevent you from sticking to trees? Only ask cause I'm heading into Borneo in April, and don't want to find myself in an uncomfortable situation.
