For me it's roughly once or twice every 5-6 months, I'm not a big whatsoever and it's usually only for special occasions (or if I've had a REALLY stressful day). I don't go to clubs or pubs so there's no need to drink.

Also what's your poison? Wine for me (since I'm very classy and all that).

Chances are, if you see me post on OT, I have some amount of booze in me. Oddly enough, I was sober for the two times I've gotten modded in the past 4 years.

3 or 4 times a week usually. Just a small amount of beer or scotch is my standard.

Alcoholics go to meetings. It's the drunks that know how to handle themselves.

I think a better question is, "What the hell is he drinking?". There's plenty of great beers out there, but Budweiser/Miller/Coors are nasty stuff.

I actually like busweiser. :P The nicest thing I've ever had though was Southern comfort with lemonade.

Same. It probably averages out to about once a month though I indulged quite frequently the past week.

I like to mix my drinks.

Well I see it didn't take long for the "my beers are better" guy to show up. Answer me this friend. If Miller is so nasty, why does it win international awards? I've drank many of the "great beers" and they are all greatly overhyped. Yum... a beer that tastes like melted jolly ranchers, maple syrup, and farts. How unique and awesome.

I don't know, maybe once every 6 months. I'll drink a little more around the holidays because there is always wine around.

Just recently started drinking... but, it's been like once every 3-4 days. I'm not sure how often I would 'like' to drink, tbh. I seem to enjoy myself with about 8oz of rum in me, but on the other hand I imagine it's not the healthiest thing in the world for a persons body.

As long as you dont have it for breakfast, then you're probably ok. The eye opener just sounds bad.

About 4 times a week. Especially on Thursday's since Fort Wayne has "Thirsty Thursdays" and most bars sell 12-18oz beers from 25 cents to 3 dollars.

I drank a total of 4 times this year. Granted, 3 of those times were at birthday parties (including my own), but even then I don't drink unless it is a special occasion or a large social gathering.

That's the liver's bane. Cheap and voluminous alcohol. I remember those days of quarter drafts. 6 beers for 1.50$

A few times a month... Anything from Beer to Wine.

My poison would be "Gin & Tonic" though, love that stuff.

A little every day, though due to me wanting to lose a bit of weight that will change. Those calories add up fast.

10 isn't really breakfast time anymore. I try to stick to a strict post-noon drinking rule for myself though. :P

They're popular just as a morning or brunch drink. Has nothing to do with hangovers. The only reason they get associated with hangovers is for people that have some sigma about what they can drink when.

I've been drinking Hurricane High Gravity since 8am, I'd like to think I'm hardly a beer connoisseur. Only when the money provides it. ;)

I roughly have the equivalent of one case per week. And I'll either get through the majority on the weekend, or I'll sometimes drag it out and just have a few cans whenever I get home from work.
