[QUOTE="Rikusaki"]Anyone else think Oregon is good?Rikusaki

Yeah they are good and have a great QB. But they wouldn't last five seconds in the SEC.

y? they beat usc and arizona state!

Because the SEC is significantly better at football than the Pac-10.

......They drink alcohol because it gets them high.

MrGeezer

...and get laid.

I guess i should stab people to understand a murder, i guess i should take heroine to understand it's effect. No, you dont need experience, just knowledge. If i came off superior i apologize, but if you re-read this entire thread you will see there have been several people who have come off VERY aggressive where the responses could have EASILY been made in a more mature light. So i have been aggravated.Tolwan

Frankly, you got exactly what you deserved. Do I think that binge drinking is good? Of course not, but there is no excuse for being judgemental. Don't apologize for acting superior, because apologizing is not going to change the fact that you think you're better than the other kids your age who drink. You think you're smarter than them. You think that they're a bunch of idiots who can't help but fall to peer pressure. At least they're doing what they want to do, and not sitting back and passing judgement.

Knowledge is impossible without understanding, and understanding comes from experience, and experience alone.

Isn't it kind of weird how the thing only carries 16 Gigs when the thing as a whole is an Ipod and costs $400? I don't get it. It's like a step backwards, regarding the space at least.camreeno360

Apple wants to make money. If iPhones and iPod Touches had 60gb of memory who would still buy plain old iPods?

A bit of a superiority complex eh? You talk about my delusions yet in a sense of irony you speak in a superior tone yourself, as if you are better than me. As if your morals are somehow superior to mine. I've tried to keep this post neutral. I'm not trying to impose my beliefs on you. I was just trying to see what the logical thinking process was for drinking. Was it a social thing? Was there any real benefit? What about the negative effects?

That's it. I have my own beliefs and those werent being put up to be changed. Pure curiousity. As a college student, i am taught to seek out knowledge. You could have responded like a mature adult, and given me links to back each of your points. Rest assured, i would have read every one of them.

Your posts have never been neutral. You've been biased and judgemental from the very beginning of this thread. You were never just trying to "see what the logical thinking process was for drinking." You were acting "superior" from the very beginning. You clearly see yourself as superior to the people your age who drink. Geezer was calling you out on that, and I agree with him.

You say that you are trying to seek out knowledge? Knowledge comes from experience, and you clearly do not have the experience to know what you are talking about. Otherwise you wouldn't be coming in here trying to show yourself as superior to other kids your own age. You would be out there being yourself, like they are. They drink beer, because they find it fun. Does there need to be any other explanation other than they find it fun?

Beer has existed for thousands of years, and people have enjoyed it all along. I think I'll side with the entirety of mankind, rather than one judgemental teenager.

It tastes good, mixing extremely well with some of my favorite foods: barbacue, pizza, buffalo wings, etc., and it is actually good for your heart.

Kritical_Strike

Really? I don't know any teenage-drinkers who actually think it tastes good. They just see it as a source of alcohol. It must be an acquired taste :?

Teenagers don't drink real beer. They drink crap beer that tastes like water, and consume way too much of it.

I eat pizza because it tastes good and has absolutely no lasting effects whatsoever (that i can not counter, at the very least).

Tolwan

Actually, pizza is probably just as bad for your arteries as beer is for your liver, and considering how heart disease is much more common than liver disease, probably even worse.

Which is why I always make sure to consume both at the same time.
